NO GREEKS At
Scene OF Crime
SHERIFF CANNOT FIND ANY
TRACE OF ALLEGED FORCE
OF REBELLIOUs MINERS.

SALT LAKE, Feb. S.-No at
tempt was made yesterday to re-
open the coal mines at Kenilworth.
Search of the hills, among which
striking Greeks who fired upon the
town hid, disclosed no dead, no
wounded and no strikers. 1t is
supposed 500 or more Greeks en-
gagged in yesterdays attack, are
scattered among the coal camps of
the county where they have found
shelter in the homes of their coun-
trymen. If any were wounded they
were taken away by their comrades
yesterday morning.
Town and mine are well guarded.
1t has not yet been determined
whether the deputy sheriff killed
yesterday was wantonly shot while
engaged in the legitimate perform
ance of his duty, as claimed by the
Americans, or whether his party
invited trouble by firing upon the
strikers outside the company's
grounds, as strikers allege.

indicated that it was probable a
1O0-light service would be installed
and the contract split between the
two companies. This would give
twice as many lights as are now in
use, at a shade over the present
cost.
Last months lighting bill, includ-
lng the service of the gas-lighter,
was $243. The gas company agrees
to do the lighting itself. Both
managers expressed themselves as
favorable to division of the con-

electric lights).

SHOppY INCREASING.

When shoddy is increasing. it is fair
10 presume that honesty is not, for
shoddy is always false pretence,
whether It applies to wool mixtures
or snobby manifestations.
Among the interesting statistics put
out by the census department at Wash
ington are those disclosing the shoddy
mill business They show the manu-
facturers were using A per cent. less
wool than they did 10 years ago And
50 per cent. more cotton. And more
waste. And chemicals. But that the
total value Of the shoddy mills prod
uct increased 10 per cent. Which
means that the wearer of shoddy
clothes pays more and gets less than
he did ten years ago.
The Wall Street Journal, inspired by
statistics Of fifty years ago, says: THE

country was twice as great per capita

THE CANADIAN MAY,

While the entire spring has been
backward and a complete disappoint-
ment here in southern New England,
we learn from the Ottawa Citizen that
they had the warmest May for eighty
years. The Citizen says:
cold weather and sleighing pre-
vailed in eastern Ontario until the 9Th
of April when succession of warm
rains caused the snow to go away
rapidly. Until few days before that
the mercury had been down to zero.
but from that time on spring arrived
with unusual suddenness and by the
beginning of May the roads were dried
up and the fields in a fair condition
for cultivation. The month of May
was as warm and generally delightful
as the average month of June. When
we recall that in the spring of 1907
there was nearly foot of snow on
May 10th-of course aa very unusual
event-we are in a position to appre-
eiate the difference this year. In 1909
the weather was so cool during the
third week of June that a slight furry
of snow occurred. 1t only lasted q
few minutes, but it was snow just the
same Luckily the weather had been
SO cool before that vegetation had not
progressed sufficiently to suffer much
