GIRL TRIES TO DIE,
BROKEN IN HEALTH
Il BY FALSE GOSSIP
Leaps Two Stories From Win

Mics Minnie Einkel. living with her
mother. q widow, . brother and a as-
ter at No. 4s4 Palisade avenue. Vice.
hawken Heights, and one OF the most
highly respected young women In that
section OF New Jersey. learned a week
ago that q malicious story was being
told about her.
mittad they had heard the story, but
knew Il to be only idle gossip. Miss
Einkel began to 'orry. She was ad-
vissd to make light of the rumor. that
her character was such that no one
who knew her even slightly could give
credence TO It. ..t.
After vainly endeavoring to get a
clue. TO the man or woman who first
repeated the unfounded gossip Miss
Einkel on Monday suddenly collapsed.
She then was in Jersey City and was
taken to her home In q carriage.
DR.. Schlemm was called to attend her.
He found that worry had brought on
nervous prostration. He advised also
that . close watch be kept on the girl.
explaining that the prosration. COM
bined with worry. was likely to bring
on . suicidal mania.
The girls condition did not improve
and the nurse kept her under constant
watch until yesterday about dawn.
Tired out. the nurse began to nod. This
was the chance for which Miss Einkel
had been waiting. She quietly slipped
from bed. crept toward an open window
and. with q shrek. dived out She land

Two Of her ribs were broken and she re-
yeeived other injuries
An ambulance came from North Hud-
son Hospital and Miss Einkel was taken
there. 1t was said last night she would
recover from her injuries, but mat her
mind was in a serious state

FIRE N|PPED IN BUD
Breaking of Needle in Gas Machine
Endangers Laundry.

A fire in the OskaloOsa Steam
Laundry just after twelve o'clock to-
day caused quite little excitement
but did not do very much damage,
The needle in the gas machine broke
and the gasoline could not be shut off.
The gasoline came out in such a
quantity that when it caught fire it
blazed up to the ceiling, catching fire
to some of the exposed lath, where
the plaster had broken off. Several
of the girls were in the room at the
time eating their dinners. They gave
the alarm to the people down stairs
and the fire department was called.
Chemical eXtinguishers were all that
was used, the nre not having time to
gain much of a Roadway. 1t was
lucky for Mr.. Pickett that this hap
pened while some one was around,
instead of being a repetition of the
other laundry fire of few weeks ago.

THE EXAMPLE OF 1896.

The Wayne, Neb., Herald cites the
case of a farmer who has just retired
in that vicinity and who will cast his
vote this fall for President Taft and
the republican ticket. OLIVER S. Gam
BILE, who retired from his farm last
winter" says the Herald, recalls the
tough times experienced in 1896 and a
few years before then. He remem.
beers and win never forget the sale of
his corn corp in 1896. He had 5000
bushels and sold the entire lot for
seven cents per bushel, making a
total of $500 for his crop. The cost
of husking was two and one half
cents per bushel. or 5000 for the 5000
bushels. Thus he had 1850 to show
for the years work, and as he was
renting then he had 10 pay for use OF
the land, He contrasts results in
1896 with what they have been since

NEARLY NINE BILLION TONS.

In 1914 the total amount of coal
produced in the United States was %
short tons, all of it anthracite; the
next year so short tons were mined;
the next year, Is short tons, and in
1919 the total quantity mined was
$50 short tons. There was a remark
able increase, however, in 1920, when
10, $50 short tons were mined, and two
years later the quantity was 1888
short tons, due to the entrance of Vir-
ginia in the field, with an output of
"a 900 short tons of bituminous coal.
From that time coal mining increased
with leaps and bounds, so that at the
close OF the first so years of the in.
dustry the output was 20, sos, 1923 short
tons. This figure, however, will be
considered remarkably small when il
| is noted that the output of the mines
of the United States in 1900 was 269,.
I6S4,027 short tons. The largest an
Inual output so far recorded was that
for 1910, which was sol ,596,37S short
tons. In 1911 the total amount of coal
produced was 496,221,168 short tons.
The anthracite coal industry has in
creased from % short tons in 1914 TO
90,464,067 short tons in 1911, the
largest quantity yet recorded. The
total amount of anthracite coal pro-
duced since 1914 is 2,270, 79S,737 short
tons. The total amount of bituminous
coal produced by American mines
since the beginning Of the industry is
GAGS, 773. $50 short tons, and the total
production Of both anthracite and BIZ
luminous coal is S,739,572,427 short
tons. These figures are quoted from a
chart just issued by the United
States Geological Survey showing the
production of coal in the United
States from 1914, the date OF the ear
Hest record, TO the close OF 1911. The

Thursday A great many new stu
dents have already arrived and a
good many more will arrive later. 1t
is expected that the enrolment this

the history of the institution. The
faculty this year will be the, same as
that of last year with the exception
of the chair of English. This will be
filled by Miss Anna B. Corson, who
is a graduate of the State University

especially qualified in every way to
fill this position and will be valu
able addition to the faculty. Every

then. A crop of 5000 bushels of corn
would now sell for sixty-five cents per
bushel, or $500. The cost of husk-
ing would amount to four cents per
bushel, or $500 for the 5000 bushels,
Deducting the expense of husking, the
crop would be worth S4,SS0, or $4.52O
more than it was worth in 1896. Mr..
CANDLES experience was one of many
that could be cited. If conditions are
satisfactory now, why the political
agitation and demand for radical
change in government policies?

| Two of the most important causes
lof economic and health waste are the
Irat and the ny. Just at present the
rat is foremost on account OF the
Threatened entrance of plague into our
country The discovery of plague IN
a neighboring island sets in motion
the machinery of our health service
local and national, and at the enor-
NOUS waste of time, money and ehort
we seek to catch, examine and then
kill all the rats on 1000 miles Oh
icoast-line in order to keep out one dis
lease. This is necessary, and must De
done. But how much better to have
no rats! 1t has long been known that
rats are a source of tremendous eco
monte waste, not only in seaboard cit
lies about docks and wharfs, but in
every portion of the land. Figures
are sometimes given of the amount of
this waste which mounts into millions
but even these figures are oSiy guess
ies and probably far short of the truth
Modern efficiency demands tSat no
rats should be tolerated; thai THIS
enormous economic waste and danger
to health should be prevented by
tswatting the rat, clubbing him, trap
ping him, poisoning him-exterminat-
ing him-wherever and whenever he
raises his pestiferous head. 1t should
not be left to the health organizations
of cities and towns and the nation o
do this work. The work should be
! done by individual prOperty-owner or
occupier, who now carelessly. indiffer-
emily or ignorantly invites the rat to
become an improbable but most pro
life tenant and guest, paying for his
board by subjecting his host to the
peril of deadly epidemic Diseases. BY
building the rat out of existence and
by waging vigilant continuous war
fare against him the public could re-
duce the rat problem and consequent
Ily the plague problem, to nothingness.

For the week ending September Is,

For the week ending September Is,
1912
Des Moines, Iowa
The first two days were very warm,
but the latter half of the week was
cool, with temperatures near the frost
line in the northern counties on the
morning of the 14th. More, than the
and showers were frequent, although
the southeastern part of the state re-
ceived very little moisture until Sat
Iurday night when heavy rain fell.
Corn made very satisfactory pro-
gress, and the early planted fields, in
the southern counties, are now being
cut for silage and fodder. The alb
normally high temperatures during
the first ten days of the month caus-
ed corn to mature rapidly, and prOba-
bly, fifty per cent of the crop is safe
from a moderate frost, but the late
fields need two to three weeks of
good warm, dry weather to put them
beyond danger of injury of even a
heavy frost. Considerable corn was
gathered for seed during the week,
and most farmers will probably Sc
cure their seed at the earliest date
possible. Threshing has been further
delayed by showers, but pastures,
meadows and late potatoes were
greatly benefited by the needed mois-
ture. The showers have also been of
great benefit to fall blowing and
seeding, and that work is being rush
