WASHINGTON. d. c., Oct. i0.-All the
world will be short OF coal this winter
The United States Will be 100000
tons short, but Europe will be almost
coalloss. Only for war purposes. and the
bQrest necessities, will Europe use coal.
On France hotels and dwellings were
freless many months last winter.
The best French coal fields are behind
the enemy lines near Lens. There was
plenty Of coal in Newcastle across the
channel. but ships were too busy car
rying men and munitions.
Ihe situation in Spain has become so
acute a royal decree has created a ma
tional coal syndicate Of all fuel pro-
ducers 10 stimulate production and reg

ernment stands behind this with almost
unlimited funds TO explore new coal
areas, acquire better mining mechanism
and encourage mine labor by model
housing colonies.
The British have acquired a fair con-
troll Of the coal situation. When the war
began there were about 100000 Eng

In the United states a similar situation

Chickens" in Alaska

A visitor remarked about the good
looks of Alaskan women and the fact
that they dress with taste. OF course
our Northern women are pretty. Why
shouldn't they be? They enjoy abso-
lutely pure air, drink water as fresh as
that from a mountain spring, get plenty
of exercise, and take an active part in
community affairs. They are cosmo-
politan the same as the men are, and
we'll read and well informed. "A every
one knows, there is nothing so beauti-
full as good health. 1t is joy even to
see an Alaskan girl swinging along with
free. firm tread, instead of the mine
ing step of her sister in the States, who
gives the impression that she is step
ping on eggs. The Alaska girl looks
you squarely in the eye, gives you a
frank handclasp and is sure of herself
at all times.-Anchorage Times.

her opinions on pictures in general and

quite seriously that she was not then

not print what she said.
Miss Tell is a very fortunate young

plicated her stage performance on the
