Newport Ran Out of Coal.

Newport Republican: The coal ia
mine may not have arrived at Newport
on schedule time, but it got here just
the same. With several cars Of coal
delayed in transit for weeks, or CON
tiscated by the railroad, the Gaines
Lumber company is without any coal
but hard coal in it's sheds today. The
situation at other points where the
famine was beginning to pinch has
been relieved and the railroads say
they are giving preference to coal over
freight. Accordingly, the shortage
here should not last long enough to
cause great inconvenience. In this
and other states where there is a
shortage the railroads are receiving
the blame. The belief that they pro.
perly should is strengthened by the
report of the Geological Survey show
ing an over production of coal in
1909.

Only a short time ago Miss La Sale
was virtually without friends or
money. The death of her father in
Beatrice, Neb. had left her an orphan.
Her voice obtained for her a position
as a chorus singer in a musical com
edy company. Ricardo Martin, the
celebrated tenor, Glanced to hear her
sing and pronounced her voice to be
the most wonderful he had ever heard.
The orphan girl was advised to come
TO New York She arrived in the city
without funds and appealed to the
grand opera managers for trial.
GuiliO Gatti-Casa22a, the director of
the Metropolitan opera house, heard
the young girl sing and agreed with
Ricardo Martin that her voice was
the most marvellous soprano he had
ever heard even exceeding the natural
voice of Nine. Melba.
Thereafter the fortunes of the poor
orphan girl began to brighten. New
Workers of wealth and social promi-
nenCe fastened to give her aid. Sew
eral thousand dollars were contributed
TO send her to Europe, where she is to
study for year under Maestro LON
