When he was put in a hospital In

incapable of distinguishing darkness
from light. Later he regained his per-
ception Of light, but no more.
Chambers was blown into a shell

SPAIN WANTS OUR COAL.
Turns Herr For Her Supply 20 Result
df British Embargo.

Turns Hsre For Her Supply 40 Result
II British Embargo.
Washington. - The British embargo
on coal Is giving the coal operators Of
Spain and other countries concern as
to the source Of future supply. In a
report received at the department of
commerce Consul Dawson, at Valen-
ella, Spain, says that, while the coal
deposits in northern Spain will this
year be called on for larger shipments,
the low value Of the product is such
that an outside supply must be had.
Railroads and manufactures rely on
the imported coal, and Of late there
have been large importations OF
American gas coal for railroad use
with good results.
The quantity required for heating
purposes among the people is COM
parattvely limited, as the climate is not
severe and much charcoal is used. Gas
heating Is, however, becoming more
general, and therefore outside coal Is
necessary. Before the war England had
this trade entirely to herself, but now
American coal Is being imported in
considerable quantities. Whatever
gains American coal may make In the
Spanish market will In all probability
be only temporary, as England takes
nearly all the output Of many indus
tries In Spain.

SIR WILLIAM ROBERTSON.

OH W4AA4A0 kfOBEGkSI6ONs II
He invested his shilling day-which
is the pay Of a British private IN
books. As British regular trooper
has none too much time to himself, he
used to get comrades to read to him
from Bacon and the English classics
while he was grooming his horse or
cleaning his equipment
In the course Of lineal promotion he
could never hope to be more than q
major. Special promotion could come
only through distinguishing himself.
Mac Donald, who won fame by his
charge at Omdurman, and other emil
nent British commanders who had
risen from the. ranks had won their
way as natural leaders of men in the
field. ~
-Four years after he had received his
commission he had won enough atten-
ton to be assigned to the intelligence
branch of the quartermaster's depart
ment in India. There he found his
opportunity. Rewards are given off,
GERS for learning native dialects. s
To the. average officer there Is moth
Ing attractive in spending hours with
a native munshi or teacher In acouir-
ing tongue which can be Of use with
only some frontier tribe. Robertson
offered his munshi quarter of the re-
ward when he was proficient enough to
earn 1t by passing an examination. atr
On the staff throughout the South Az
rlcan campaign he earned the praise
Of Roberts and Kitchener by his capac-
fty for getting things done when others
Sometimes failed When in 1910 he
was placed In command Of the Army,
Staff college even those who agreed he
had shown himself to be the man for
the place were amazed at the thought
Of a man who had been for ten years
IN private without any groundwork Of
regular academic education should be-
come the director Of an institution
which gathers the ablest officers Of the
army for instruction IN the higher
branches Of war and gives the charac-
ter to army organization.
Meantime he had kept on with his
languages. He now knew French ana
German. and he had studied the con.
tihental army systems. There seems to
be a general agreement that his i'm
pTovement Of the Staff college marked
an epoch. s III i
AS director Of military training at
the war Office he later had much to do
