IMPEDED BY HIGH PRICES.
of Coal Lands Discuss
ed by Representative MOndcII.

Correspondence between Secretary OF
the Interior Fisher and Representative
F. w MondeIl Of Wyoming, regarding a
controversy over the sale by the govern
ment OF certain coal lands in Wyoming,
was made public yesterday.
Mr.. Mondell has called attention to the
fact that development was impeded by
the high prices charged by the govern
ment for lands of this character. He eX-
pressed his belief in the desirability of
the government turning the coal lands
over to the States in which they were sit
uated,- so that the States should lease
them.
Secretary Fishers reply, as made pub
lie yesterday, calls attention to the fact
that the sale of certain lands near Rock
Springs, Wyo., at a high price, shows
that the prices charged by the govern
ment does not discourage coal land sales
for immediate development, though they
do discourage buying for speculative
holding or control, thereby discouraging
a monopoly.

WHY THEY WANTED A BANK
Matter Of Convenience That Led to
Demand for Establishment of
Financial Institution.

Harry L. Confer, chief clerk in
the bank department in the office of
the auditor of state, spent an hour
a few days ago trying to convince a
budding financier that the ordinary
village in Indiana cannot support
more than one bank properly, and
that demands for second banks in
such places could usually be traced
to some purpose other than legiti-
mate banking.
"When / was in bank in Elk
hart" he said, 81 was approached
one afternoon by a small merchant
on the South side, who asked if our
bank wouldn't consider a proposal to
establish branch in his part of the
city. l told him that under the new
law we were not permitted to estab-
fish branches, and asked him why he
was anxious to have a bank in his
neighborhood, where there were only
small shops and good banks within
a dozen blocks.

NEW KIND OF RAILROAD HOG
He Attempts to Keep Two Seats So
Az to Be on Shady Side
Of Car.

A man who frequently uses the in
terurban cars out Of Indianapolis re-
ports a new kind of railroad hog.
81 boarded the car at the Denison
hotel corner" he said, "and noticed
there was only one seat outside the
smoking compartment not occupied
by some person, and it had in it
large suit case. In the aisle directly
across from the suit case was a fat
man who evidently did not belong
to this part of the country and was
unacquainted with the geography.
81 moved the suit case to the aisle
and took the seat. After we had left
the city and started across the coun-
try the fat man scowled at me,
picked up the suit case and, going
into the smoker, sat down in a va
can't seat on the same side of the
car where l was sitting, the shady
side.
Evidently he had tried to make
sure of two seats, so as to be able
to select the one on the shady side
after the car had started on its cross
country route, but my removal Of his
suit case had spoiled his plan"

A New Era in the
Automobile Industry
Stakeholder Corporation
Makes ChangeS for Good
of Dealer and Customer

One of the indications Of a big
change in the movement of the auto
mobile industry is the reorganization
of the sales end of the Studebaker
Corporation. T h e Studebakers
have a sixty-year perspective in the
wagon industry and since their en-
try into the automobile field have
held a manufacturing pace that has
made automobile history.
According to Clement Studebaker,
IT,, First Vice President of the Cor
poration, times are ripe for changes.
"The Automobile business" said
Mr.. Studebaker, cant be run in
the future as it has in the past
The automobile is no longer an ex
pertinent, a novelty or a toy. 1t is
an immensely important mechanical
feature of our natural life. The
Wild Cat times are over. Mush-
room growths are at an end. The
rush into automobile manufacture,
the craze for fash and novelty, the
systems of making and selling, the
reckless disregard of after service in
a car, will not be tolerated by the
car users Of the future-and careful
manufacture have got to think
about the future.
"Our reorganization is based on
the new needs of the business as we
see them. We want the highest
Standardization in manufacture.
To attain this we have established
an Engineering Board with James
G. Haeslett as it's chief. Mr.. Haes-
lett and his associates will aim not
only so to specialize production as
to give the best cars for the money,
but so to standardize the units as
to guarantee convenience, efficiency
and economy of service in the use of
the cars. Maintenance service to
car owners has never received suffi-
Gent attention in the industry as a
whole. We want Studebaker SER
vice to mean something-and to
mean something anywhere in the
world. We can now sell a car or a
part of a car in San Francisco for
delivery in the Berkshires.

er Corporation is to meet the new

BEAR MADE THINGS LIVELY.

When the Norwegian steamships
Hercules, which arrived from the
Orient in Portland, Ore, the other
day, was riding out storm in mid
ocean "A big black Chinese bear be-
longing to the boatswain, who was
bringing it over TO sell, tore down
the bars of the cage he occupied un-
der the poop deck and proceeded to
enliven things. One of the mates
ventured into the part of the vessel
where the bear had been imprisoned
to ascertain the cause of the noise
he heard. As he set back near the
cage the bear, standing ON its
launches, confronted him with open
mouth, lolling tongue and out-
stretched arms. He fed. The bear
followed him to the deck, but made
no attempt to overtake him. For the
next three days the bear enjoyed the
freedom of the steamer, no attempt
being made to capture him. He as
cended the masts time and again.
Finally he fell asleep on the deck
one day and was secured and dashed
tightly to a stanchion by members of
the crew and dragged back to his
cage.

COIFFURE
SUGGESTIONS

Whether the hair &s dressed high
or low now, Il must show the con-
tour Of the head. Small heads are i'm
fashion, and coiffures and millinery
are designed to give this effect OF
small, aristocratlc head set on sloping,
feminine shoulders The natural hair
is more at a premium now than It was
a year or so ago, when quantities of
rats puffs, braids and curl5 were piled
on the head and the woman who has
not naturally luXuriant tressos Is tax
ing deal of trouble To make the most
OF those with which nature has en-
dowed her.
Rather simple effects are in vogue
for day wear, aud the hats are so
large in the crown and settle so far
down over the head that an elaborate
coiffure would be ruinel the moment
one went out OF doors. In order to
maintain its soft flufhness and youth
ful spring" under the constant pres
sure of the hat, the hair must be
shanlpoosed. brushed and manipu-
lated increasingly. Let It alone a
week, with no other ministration save
that OF the dressing comb, and IL looks
hopelessly fiat and stringy ana re-
fuses utterly to fluff out about the
face i'm modsh manner beneath the
hat brim.
Bangs are in fashion again, anil
on faces sufficiently young the little
fringe across the forehead is really
piquant and charming. In Paris the
bang Is called the fringe a la CHEN,
| or dog fringe" and these shaggy lit
tie fringes are sold in the hairdress-
ers' shops at from fifty cents to fve
dollars each, depending on the quail
| ity of hair used. The fringe In chien
is not supposed to be curled, but must
be so soft and fluffy that it gives a
curly ami not a limp. straight effect.
One unalterable coiffure rule there
| is and that Is, that the ears must be
covered. Ears-and foreheads, too
are entirely out of fashion now and
| Madame Mode has decreed that they
| must be covered up. AN the new
