TWIST
BY COAL TRUST
The Demand Still For More
Toll From the Public,
As Summer Rate.

Instead of decreasing in price with
the coming of summer, coal is going
up. An advance of cent per bushel
has just become effective here, which
puts coal, either lump or nut, at fif-
teen cents per bushel, or 1915 per
ton delivered to the bin. Usually at
this season prices are declining and
the dealers are beginning to make the
summer drive to fill coal houses at
sharply reduced rates.
The local dealers say they are not
responsible. They say the blame is
with the mine operators, who in turn
say il is due to shortage OF labor and
inability to get cars.
A recent farcical investigation at
Louisville resulted in nothing being
done and it is now up to Uncle Sam.

If This Goes Through.

Prohibition legislation was approx
ed by the State Finance Committee as
a new feature of the War Tax Bill.
Prohibitive taxes upon distillation of
whisky and other spirits for beverage
purposes, with a ban upon their i'm
portation, were agreed upon by SUBJ
stantial majority of the committee.
General suspension Of beverage pro-
duction by distillation and use Of liquor
in bonded warehouses probably would
be the effect of the new tax section if
enacted into law. Curtailment Of liq-
uor consumption during the war and
conservation of foodstuff used in
manufacturing distilled spirits, Chair
man Simmons said, constituted the
dual object of the committee inadopt-
ing the substitutes for the House rates.
Manufacture Of alcohol for industrial,
mechanical or medicinal purposes
would not be affected.

Amateurs From Neighboring
City Put On a Good
Show.
APPRECIATIVE AUDIENCE
Miss Cecil Schubert Heard
In Some Fine operate
Music.

Tuesday night Hopkinsville was
given a rare treat in the appearance
of the GAINESVILLE Minstrels. The
music of the occasion was under the
direction of Prof. c. j. Schubert, of
the Hopkinsville Conservatory of
Music, and was of high quality.
The performance opened with the
singing of Garry Me Back to Old
Virginia." and other old time songs.
The black face performers then sang
a few selections and pulled some
Jokes, some new and some old, but
they all got a laugh. The feature of
this part of the program was the sing
ing of Georgia Moon" by Mrs. M.
Latner and ''The Sunshine of Your
Smile" by Mr.. Herbert Nichols. Both
of these selections were beautifully
rendered and greatly appreciated by
the audience. The singing of "Who
Knows" by Mr.. Dale Beach, added
just the touch needed to make the
show one of the best given here for a
long time.
The Girls Glee Club, in selections
rendered in faultless style, was the
most attractive feature of the whole
performance and drew hearty APP
plause.
But Jimmy Triggers Return from
War;" featuring doc" Sadler and
Tyler Miller took down the house,
for it was what the crowd came to
see, a real minstrel show. Tie Sc
lections rendered by Miss Cecil Schu-
bert were of grand opera quality. As
a whole, the show was a huge success
and everybody is glad that we had
the chance to see and hear the Clarks-
vile Minstrels.
Among those taking part were
John Edwards, G. NJ. Sadler, Dale
Beach, Norman Station, Dick Davis,
Tyler Miller, Morris Latner, Mrs.
Latner, Herbert Nichols, Fred Bat
son, Henry Pickering and others.

Two Of Sixteen German Raid
ers Shot Down Fleeing
From England.
BOMB NAVY BUILDINGS
British and Germans Ham
mering Each Other in Saw
age Artillery Duel.

A raid by a squadron of German
airplanes over the counties of Essex
and Kent, England, serves for the mo-
ment to distract the attention from the
maneuvers on the battle fronts where
for the most part artillery engage
ments are still in progress.
About 16 of the German aircrafts
were engaged in the attack during
which bombs were dropped and two
persons were killed and 20 injured
and material damage resulted in resi-
dental sections. Taking to the air,
British aviators succeeded in driving
off the invaders who lost two of their
machines.
The British and Germans near
Wytschaete in Belgium, are still en-
gagged. in a violent artillery duel,
whichlis probably the forerunner of a
great infantry action at an early date.
Already, according to Berlin, the
British after having hurled great
quantities of steel against the Ger
man defenses, advanced to see the
result of their work of their guns but
were forced by the German fire to
retire to their positions, where
upon the rain of British shells again
was resumed.
There has been no resumption on
the part of the line where the French
are facing the Germans of the intense
battles of Saturday and Sunday and
the artillery duels there have died
down in volume.
During Tuesday eighteen German
airplanes were accounted for by Brit
ish aviators on the western battle
front, II of them having been brought
down in air fighting. The British
themselves lost five machines.
AUSTRIANS STILL OFFENSIVE.
Apparently the Anstrians on the
front from Gorilla to the sea are still
the aggressors against the Italians,
but, according TO Rome war Office,
their attacks have all been repulsed
except south of Jamiano where as
saults compelled the Italians to give
way.
a British squadron has heavily
bombarded the German naval base at
O5tend, Belgium, and also has sunk a
German torpedo boat destroyer and
put to flight five other German YES
sells of this class in the North Sea-
An Austrian destroyer has been sunk
in the Adriatic by a submarine.
