EXTRA! MUCH EYESIGHT, IS
SAVED BY ACT OF GIRL WHO
USED TO WIGGLE ABOUT


Revenge is sweet, and girl who
amused ten-cent sports with her
oriental dancing at a South State
street palace, and who believes in a
fifty-ffty play for all dancers who in
wade Chicago, is enjoying consider
able sweetness"
Some so-caIled reformers and
goody-goody folks put the kibosh on
this particular, or perhaps not very
particular, young lady from staging
her every little movement has a
meaning Of it's own" dance before
Wide-eyed Chicago youths.
And then she heard that Maud AL
Ian was coming to Chicago to play
at Cohan's Grand in "Saleme." So
she placed a kick with the folks who
had acted against her.
A little note was written to Mrs.
James G. Boor, chairman Of the COM
mittee, on, morals Of the WOman's
Church Federation. 1t read in part:
81 suppose you viii let Maud Allan
put on her dances because e-plays
to 50 house. They are the same
dances which 1 learned from her for
which 1 was put out Of business"
Mrs. 'Boor took up the Maud Allan
dances with Chief of Police Healey.
Friday before a meeting of her COM
mittee she announced that the ban
had been passed. So there is another
little girl who won't be able to do the
observation-disclosures Chicago
eyes. "And her name is Maud"
Miss AIlan's manager announced,
when she failed to appear, that she
had strained tendons in her legs. Just
think of the muscles in the big blue
and brown eyes that are saved from
straining, though. =

OF COAL HOLDUP
Chairman W. L. O'ConneIl, public
utilities comm, has been told by six
investigators working on living cost
quiz that 108 carloads of coal are be-
ing held in the Glen yard Of the Chi
cago & Alton road awaiting recon

Panoramic photographs of the coal
cars were handed o Cornell with the
report. Eight hundred cars of coal
were in the Wildwood yards and over
400 in the Glen yards when the pho
tOs were taken
Q'Connel received Information
that the coal gamblers were tipped off
to the investigation and were be-
ginning. to move the cars to other To-
calities, where they will be held until
higher prices can be obtained.

The spelter produced from the var

while originating chiefly in American
ores, has come in good part from the
mines of Australia, from which heavy
importations have, been made both in
ore and concentrates. Nine months
imports of zinc amounted to 245,000,-

Denial of Right Of States TO Its Re.
sources Is Soeialistie.
A case that has attracted much at
tention among lawyers was argued in
the United States supreme court last
week. The government brought suit
against power companies in Utah to
Gust them from the public lands. The
interest of the United States was
shown by the fact that briefs were
filed on behalf of the state of Utah
right to control the use of their wa
tiers as a part of their general powers
to govern their internal affairs. This
claim of the western states Is based
upon their admission into the union
on an equal footing with the original
states.
1T is not generally known, pre-
sumo, that so per cent of Utah is still
public land" said H. ]. Dawes, a
lawyer of Colorado in discussing the
case, here. 80 In Colorado think
fully two-thirds of the state Is public
land. All of the western states have
great reservations, and the eonserva-
tionlsts have gone plumb crazy in
their efforts to keep the land from
settlement. The case now before the
supreme court involves the right of
the states to control their own land
The federal government has pursued
Ia policy which gives 1t almost abso-
lutte control over all privately owned
land in the event enterprise seeks to
obtain concessions from the govern
ment. For instance If corporation
or other owner of land contiguous to
public lands in carrying out a project
seeks roadway across a strip of the
public land, be 1t ever so small, the
government will not grant the right
until the corporation or owner signs
a contract under which the govern
ment in reality becomes the dominant
power over the privately owned land,
reserving the right to dictate the sale
of the land to whomsoever it names,
and in any event to become the own
er in fifty years. 1t is really a form
of government socialism, and the
western states want to find out whe-
then they have different status from
the other states simply because they
happened to come into the union lat
err"
