Now that winter is coming on, a local
coal dealer sizes up the coal situation as
follows: Coal will be scarce before the
winter is over, due to the mines not
making deliveries. The mines are having
their own troubles on account of the
shortage of ears and the labor situation.
Few cars are being shipped and coal
dealers are not assured Of deliveries.
The same condition may be found in
Portland where there is a shortage of
coal. This situation may be changed by
the government taking a hand in the
price as well as the deliveries. This in
formation is given for what it is worth
and not to boost the business Of the
coal or wood man.

For the month of September, Marion
county is credited with eniistments num-
bering 81, in the regular army. Although
but 10 of these were enlisted in Salem,
yet the eight who enlisted elsewhere
were creditd to this county. as it is
now the rule of the val department to
credit not where the man enlists but
where he happens to be registered.
Hence, wherever a Marion county a
e~nlists, this county will be given credit
and the total number of enlistments
since June 80 will be credited on the
second call.

WASHINGTON RELICS.
To be Sold at Auction in New York
CITY On April 18th.

New York, April 9.-HistorlcaI
relics of George Washington, with
original documents and letters re-
latinp to the formation of the Con-
stitution of the United States, Will
come into the auction market when
the William Lanier Washington col
lection is placed on view in the An
derson Galleries on April II. Mr..
Washington is a descendant Of two
Of George Washington brothers, and
is the hereditary representative OF
General Washington in the Society
of the Cincinnati, the objects in the
collection having come to him by in
heritance through five family sources.
These relics include wine glasses
used at Mt. Vernon, silver teaspoons,
plates, the sword belt buckle that
Washington wore in army service,
his silver drinking cups, snutfboX,
reading glass, writing case, the we'd
ding ring of Washington's mother ana
Martha Washington's purse. 1t is
the largest collection of relics of
George Washington that ever appear
ed at auction, and it is not likely
that any more important group will
ever be sold, as most of the accredit-
ed relics are already in public mu
seums.
The portraits include statuettes of
Washington and Franklin, busts, re-
lief portraits in wax and silver, Stat
Yorkshire pieces, painting of Wash
ington by Rembrandt Peale and
portrait of the mother of Washing
ton. This last is of great interest,
for the face has an unmistakable re-
semblance to the famous Gilbert
Stuart portrait of Washington, a
work which while admired as work
of art has not been accepted by all
critics as being the best likeness of
the first President. The portrait of
the mother is so like that of the son,
however, hat it will more than ever
confirm those who believe literally
as we'll as artistically in Gilbert
Stuart.

declaration made by sovereign
power since the present world con-

Times. -and these do not include the
declarations made BY the little Re

launched by the new Kingdom of

reached its destination. Cuba's dec
laration is therefore the thirtieth.
With these notifications the United
States was the fifteenth nation to en-
ter the war--the eleventh on the
side of those opposed to Germany.
With the latter China has, already
broken off diplomatic relations with
every prospect of war, and President

Graduates for appointment as As
- sistant Paymasters.
Lexington Va. April "A new
field of public service has been open
ed to the graduates of the Virginia
Military Institute by an order just
issued by the Paymaster-General of
Of the United States Navy. General
E. w. Nichols, superintendent of the
institute, has been requested to name
three Virginia Military Institute
graduates for appointment as assis-
tant paymasters in the navy. Gener-
al Nichols will announce his recon-
mendations in few days.
Contrary to common opinion, an as
sistant paymaster in the navy is a
commissioned officer of the fighting
branch of the navy, and therefore
military training is valuable as
set. AS practically all of the gradu-
ates of the Naval Academy are re-
ouired for the line of the navy, the
authorities have decided to turn, for
additions to the commissioned person
mel, to the Virginia Military Institute
and a few other military colleges
whose courses have been recognized
by the War Department as being such
as to turn out acceptable officers for
the army.
