n. h p. HALL DAMAGED BY FIRE

Fire which is believed to have been
caused by spontaneous combustion,
damaged the ticket office of the Har-
rison & Peterson hall Friday night.
The fire was discovered by people liv.
ing on the fat and the alarm was turn
ed in at about 9:40 p. m. The flames
were confined to the ticket office at
the rear of the hall but the hall was
slightly damaged by smoke.
In the ticket office, next to win
dow, several storm windows were stor-
ed, and it is believed that the sun
shining through these ignited some
oily rags which were kept in the room.

Local Men to Attend Big
Chicago Cement Show

j. F. Hawn and Thos. Hubbard
and a local party of Others inter-
ested in permanent construction
with concrete are making plans
to visit the Tenth Chicago &C.
ment Show at the Colisem, Feb
ruary 7-15. The Chicago Coli
scum is one of the famous con-
ventions auditoriums Of the coun-
try. 1t has housed perhaps more
national exhibitions and national
political conventions than any
other BUILDING in the United
States. Concrete is so widely
used and it interests so large a
number of people, that the Chi
cago Cement Show is regarded,
not only as the barometer of the
building business, but business in
general for the ensuing year.
This year the barometer is at a
nigh point, as is evidenced by
the large number of exhibitors
who have applied for space. They
have such confidence in the build
ing boom that they have applied
for space in greater numbers than
ever before. For the first time
in the history OF the Show it will
be necessary to use the balcony
of the Coliseum in addition to the
main floor and annex.
Practically every type of concrete
conslructil n will be exhibited at
the Cement Show as well as all
The various kinds of machinery
for its manufacture.
Chicago is the natural place to
hold such .arge national exhi-
olCion as it is within three hours
lde of the center of population
OF the United States and because
1t is the worlds greatest railroad
center. Over 100000 people,
or half Of the population of the
United States, live within a.
nights ride of Chicago. AS the
convention city of the country, it
has ample hotel accommodations.
In addition to the Cement Show
there will be held during the
same week, several conventions
Of allied interests, including the |
national convention of the Amer
lean Concrete Institute, National
Builders Supply Association, |
Lumber and Builders
Association, American Concrete |
Pipe Association, and American
Association of Engineers.
Thousands of contr C tors,
material dealers and city
and government officials from all
parts of the United States and
Canada, will be in attendance to
lherchange ideas on the years
proxess in building construction

have ar0le opportunity to profit

Higher COAL PRICE
Raise Of Forty-five Cents a Ton

WASHINGTON, October 2s-(Asso.

general strike of the miners in the bi.
luminous coal fields, President Wilson
yesterday granted the operators per.
mission to raise prices at the mines
forty-fiye cents ton from the price
heretofore fixed by the government.
The action of the President followed
appeals from practically all Of the op,
orators who insisted that the margin
of profit under the prices as cut down
and fxed by the fuel controller was so
narrow that they could only meet the
demands of the miners at direct loss.
On the other hand the miners were
steadfast in their demands and in the
statement which was presented for
them Of their side " the controversy
it was shown that at the present time
and under the prevalence Of war prices
for food and other necessities, il was

AMERICAN TROOPS

AMERICAN ARMY HEADQUAR-
TIERS IN FRANCE, October 27-(As.
sociated Press For the first time In
the great European war American
troops have gone into action, and that
action-an artillery duel with the Ger.
mans--was an effective stroke.
The first official statement from the
American headquarters. given to the
Associated Press said: "The American
troops are being given continuance
OF training and as the nucleus of in.
structiOn for later contingents, some
battalions Of the first contingent, in
association with veteran French bat,

. ''They supported some batteries of
our artillery in association with veteran
French batteries. The sector was nor
NAL. The men adapted themselves to
actual trench conditions in the most
satisfactory monner''
From official sources it is further
learned that the American artillery
fired the first shot of the war at six
o clock on the morning of a recent
day, at German wOrkingparty. There
has. been intermittent artillery fighting
since.
The helmeted American infantry
marched into the first line trenches as
signed to them, without the knowledge
Of the enemy, through the rain and
mud. The French enthusiastically wei,

The nearest German trench was sew.

The trenches were muddy but excel

What Is Required &
The problem of America, as the food
administrator sees it, is to feed our
Allies this winter by sending them as
much food as we can of the most con.
centrated nutritiye value in the least
shipping space. These foods are wheat
beef, pork, dairy products and sugar =.
This is to be accomplished, the house.
wives will be told, by eating less of
these and more of other foods of which
we have an abundance, and by wasting
less of all foods.
There is n superabundance of yege-
tables, especially of potatoes but they
cannot be shipped to our Allies because
they require from four to ten times the
tonnage of more concentrated foods
and the saving of ocean tonnage is one
of the vital problems of the war. The
food administration, therefore, g urges
the liberal use of vegetables, and of
fruit, poultry, fish and other sea
foods, with larger use of corn meal
for the purpose of saving wheat. Az
these foods are healthful and relative
ly low in price, it points out, the Amer
lean people are not asked TO endure
privatiOn, but merely to change their
eating habits, and to aviod waste.
