ALDERMEN TO FIGHT |. C. FOR
MORE BEACHES
Millionaire directors of the Illinois
Central railroad, our pet lake front
land-hogging champion, had some
thing else to think about today when
the visit of dozen aldermen to the
lake shore became known. For the
aldermen, after examining about II
miles along the lake, decided to fight
the Illinois Central to finish.
Chicago's lake front should be used
for Chicago's people was the general
opinion among the aldermen. No
railroad has the right to grab off the
worlds greatest natural playground
or to sprinkle it with SCOT and dirt,
the aldermen said. So they are going
to do these things when the council
gets back on the job in the fall:
Fight the l. G. to a finish on the
lake front.
Refuse to give the war department
a permit to allow the L G. and the
beef trust crowd of the south parks
board to get together and trade Chi
cago's land.
Scrap with the L c. until that rail-
road electrifies its engines and
craWls under the ground for good.
Investigate alleged grabs of land
by the Chicago Beach hotel and a
highbrow fiat building bunch at 54th
st. and the lake, both of whom claim
a beach for themselves.
Buy beaches where the riparian
rights have been lost by the city.
Establish swimming place every
half mile along the lake shore.

COAL Miners TO
CONTINUE STRIKE
SMALL MAJORITY OF WESTERN
KENTUCKY MEN STILL OP-
POSE GOING BACK.
OPERATORS IMPATIENT
VIII Hold Meeting Monday and Ask
National Organization To Take
Hand.

Although many of them are in
dire need the miners of Western
Kentucky have again refused for the
third time in spite of the recon-
mendation of the national organiza-
ton, to return to work.
Ninety per cent of the locals vot-
ing yesterday upon the proposition
to return to work had been heard
from last night and it seems prac-
tically certain that the operators
proposition will be turned down by
majority of about $50 votes.
1t is understood that the Opera
tors association will, in the event
the miners refuse to accept their
terms, call meeting for Friday, at
which the proposal will be made
to the national organization, that,
to delegates at the recent meeting
of he miners in greensboro, it order
the miners of the district to return
to work
In case such a proposal is made
TO the national organization the
supposition is that the national Of
ficials will permit those locals
which voted to return to work to do
so and declare delinquent those
which refuse. This would mean that
following its recommendation made
- lnIr 90 mould
sumo operations at an early date
If the locals that voted to return to
work accept the national organiza-
tons recommendations.
Should the operators not request
the national organization to order
the men back to work or should the
national board fail to give such an
order the strike will continue on
for an indefinite period until one or
the other side yields, or open shop
is declared by the operators.
The strike in which over 5000
miners are involved, has been on
since May Is. Hundreds of the min
ers have left the Western Kentucky
coal fields since it was called and
gone to other fields. A small num-
her, having won their terms, are
at work, and the vote of these, to-
gether with that of a minority of
the rest of the strikers, has, it is
understood, so far prevented the
strike being brought to close. A
considerable amount of friction be-
tween the district workers and the
national officials has, it is said,
been created by the district work
ers' determination to hold ont for
their demands against the recon-
mendation of the national organiza-
tion.-Owensboro Messenger.

TO ascertain what damage had been
done by the hard rains last week the
attention of Mr.. w. F. Stevens, a
prominent farmer of No Creek, was
attracted by a small shiny object

on closer inspection found the Gym
osure to be a unique Spanish coin
made in 1875 and bearing the name
of Carolus (Charles) III. Mr.. Stew
ems says the coin, which is pure sill
yer. was about eight inches under
the ground until the rains brought

the Stevens farm there was in the

in that locality. which was then a

Jim Tinnel, State dependent, was

at the home of w. P. Midkiff, with
whom he lives, Tuesday when the
keen clap of thunder resounded, fol-
lowed by a momentary electrical dis
play. Jim threw up his hands, stag
gered into the yard and plunged
headlong on the grass. Several cit
liens were eye witnesses and rushed
to the aid of the fallen man, fearing
all the while that they were too late.
They arrived upon the scene and gaz-
ed upon the motionless form. Jim
name was called, but there was no
response. Those standing around

that passed among the bystanders
they did not unanimously agree with
Jim in his charge. II developed that
the half-wit was only scared, but he

THE WAR AT A
GLANCE-

Not only have the Germans been
engaged in heavy fighting with the
French around Verdun, but they have
launched strong attack against the
rev British positions near st. Eloi,
which lies few miles south of Ipres,
i'm an endeavOr to regain six hundred
yards of trenches which the British
won from them ten days ago. the
fighting around st. Eloi proceeded
throughout the day and had not ter
minated when the latest Brltlsh OH
cial statement was issued.
There have been gains on both Ger
man and French sides. The Germans
captured the village of Haucourt,
which lies in the Avocourt- Bethin-
court sector northwest of Nerdun.
This is considered by the Germans as
an important strategic point. Tor
while the French held it the Germans
could not cross the Forges brook.
OF this operation the French war
office saws a series of attacks, in
which numbers of men took part. fol-
lowed a bombardment of extreme vio-
lence. These attacks were checked
by the French fire. but one more furi-
GUS than the others launched at the
center against the village of llaucourt
resulted in the Germans gaining a
foothold "in spite of repeated checks
and bloody sacrifices" The frencn
claim that this village is dominated
by the French guns.
on their side the French forces
carried a large section of the position

drove the Germans back through
their underground passages for dis

PARLIAMENT SPATS
ON SALARY PROBLEM
Agitation by Reginald Mckcnna to
Abolish Part of Payment Causes
CCmmctiOI.

LONDON, April 6.--(6:07 p. ny
During discussion in the house If
commons today of the motion pre-
sented by the chancellor of the ex-
chequer, Reginald McKenna, that no
member of the house should receive
n parliamentary salary and also pay
ment as member of the army or
navy, but must elect which he would
receive. a commotion was caused
among the Unionist members owing to
Sir Frederick PanbuTy moving an
amendment seeking the abolition OF
payment to members of parliament
altogether.
This question of abolition has a
large number of supporters among
unionists but the Banbury amend
nent was denounced by some os
the Unionists as n breach of the party
truce. Andrew Bonar Law, the colon
ial secretary. rebuked Sir Frederick
Banbury for raising the question. He
said that If Sir Frederick's object was
to get rid of the present government,
he should do it openly and upon an is-
sue big enough that the unionists
should not be ashamed.
Sir Edward Carson, the Ulster
Unionist leader, also characterized the
amendment as mean and inoppOr-
tune" and finally the amendment was
rejected, 2l7 TO 80.
