means of submarine warfare on the
British commerce. AS yet, however,
the chancellor and his policies are
dominant.

MULE CAR LINE
SOLD FOR JUNK
UNITED Press Dispatch. ]

Middletown, O., June 81
MiddIetoWn claims it has the
only mule car in passenger
service in the United States.
The car operates between the
Big Four depot and the bust
ness district. Two mules, one
deIapidated car and few blocks
of track are all that is left of
the system, which was built
in 1879. In 1894 the sale of the
line for $4,000 was stopped on
the ground that the price
was too low. In 1914 the line
was sold as junk to Isaack
SiIverman for $3.50. But Sill
verman found that carrying
passengers was profitable. So
the mule car is still doing
business.

she stood in hall and cried out a
challenge to men who were lean and
hungry and without the prospect of
a nights shelter unless they success
fully panhandled it or rendered to
the city labor worth three times the

She paused and the smouldering
blaze seemed to burst into flame.
Then her pretty mouth, rounded,
with a suggestion of dimple in one
corner, sneered.
What are we going to do about
