Girls and the u. D. c.

GirlS ana the -. -. ~.
Ts the Editor Of the University Missourian:
Co,hoarding OF no! is a question that
is bother:ng many of the timers at
the University Dining Club.
To give the University, women
cheaper board, the possibility of ad-
mitting women to this club has been
considered, and it is to be decided
by the University authority whether
this shall be done.
Such a scheme has its advantages
and it's disadvantages. Primarily, the
University women who are now pay
ing from $3.50 up for board will pay
much less and at the same time fare
well. There are scores of women
in the University who are having
as hard time as many of the men to
get through the course, but have to
eat at sore prescribed boarding places
above their means, or incur the dis
pleasure of the authorities.
Such a plan as The foregoing coming
into effect would mean the saving of
n any dollars by the university women
whose portion is such as compel them
tc forego necessities in order to pay
a high price for their board.
The men students who dine at the
club may, and. probably will, raise the
objection that the entrance Of girls
to the club will instill rigidity into
the atmosphere that heretofore has
net existed.
There may be a noticed difference
in the club atmosphere, but it will
be one for the better. The fines for
throwing bread may decrease, but the
manners OF those in the club will in
crease many fold. If the University
women enter into this matter in the
right spirit, it seems that nothing
hut good to both parties can be the
outcome uf the step.

MADRID, Sept 2.-The threat Of
the General Labor Federation in

throughout Spain bids fair to be
realized The strike in saragossa
has alarmed government officials. II
is now practically certain that the
strike will soon include all of the in
dustrial centres. especially Barcelona,
where the revolutionary spirit is more
active than elsewhere in Spain.
Should the strike continue there is
little hope that the government will
be able to hold the strikers in check.
There are not enough dependable
troops to protect the larger cities
Rather than invite a clash with q
national labor movement, the more
conservative leaders are urging that
the government reopen negotiations
for a settlement
The clericals are accused Of goading
on the strikers I'm the hope that a
general upheaval will check the anti
clerical policy of the government.
SARAGOSSA. Sept 2.-This city TO-
day joined in the general strike move

day. All shops and factories are
closed, street car traffic is suspended
and no newspapers are published. The
city is tied up worse up than it has

$4,000 BLAZE
AT KIAMENSI
Locomotive Sparks Fire Un-
occupied PiIIinG Residence
Early This Morning
TREE BARRIER SAVES
BIG WOODEN MILLS

Fire at Kiamensi, on the b. & o.
Railroad five miles from Wilmington,
al 3,45 o'clock this morning destroyed
the home of the late Thomas Pilling.
who was the treasurer and head of the
Kiamensi Woolen Company, entailing
a loss estimated at about $4,000 The
structure was frame and two and one
half stories high. IL had not been
Occupied since the death of Mr.. Pill
ling, four or five years ago.
While the origin of the blaze is not
definitely known. it is thought that
sparks from a passing b. g. o. loco
motive caused the fire.
Wilmington was appealed to for
assistance and Fire Chief Moran dis
patched the Reliance and Union COM
panies to the scene, the Green
| Streak" making the run in remarka-
bic fast time.
Because tn wind was blowing i'm a
/ favorable direction and the roofs Of
nearby buildings were soaked from
the rain, the fire did not assume more
serious proportions. The destroyed
dwelling was located about 80 feet
/ from the Kiamensi Wooden Mills and
near a village of from Is to 20 houses,
in which employees of the mill live.
There also is a heavy wall OF trees
between the site of the destroyed
building and the woolen mills and it
was impossible for the flames to get
through this barrier under the condi-
tions that prevailed.
Town People Fight Fire.
The fremen were not Handicapped by
the lack of water as is usually the
case upon going to places outside the
nff ~ -
creek flows by the wooden mills. When
the firemen arrived. however, the Pill
ing residence was practically de-
stroyed and the men turned their at
tention TO preventing the bames reach
ing adjoining property.
The fire was discovered by the crew
of a passing freight train and the
sleeping inhabitants of the village
we're aroused by sharp blasts of the
locomotive whistle. In short time
all the people in Kamensi were awake
and most Of the men had left their
homes to fight the fire. In the mean
time. Wilmington was appealed to for
assistance and the two fire companies
dispatched to the scene of the blaze
