COUNT TUNNELS BY MILES
Underground Workings OF Anthracite
Coal Mines a Constant Source of
Expense to Owners.

Anthracite coal mines in this coun-
try have over 1000 miles of tunnels.
OF these, 1000 are in the Schuylkill re-
gion, which ships about % per cent of
the total anthracite production. In
the Lehigh and Wyoming regions,
which furnish the remaining ~ per
cent of output, there must be over 81
900 miles of tunnels.
These underground roads are a great
expense. All the coal that can be re.
covered from them is constantly in
.creasing, and this adds greatly to the
cost of the mines. Water that runs
into these underground passages must
be steadily pumped out Il protect adj
jacent workings, and air must be
forced in TO prevent the formation of
dangerous gases. To protect the sur
face and make possible the recovery of
a little more coal, large sums of money
are annually spent for pumping refuse
back into the workings by hydraulic
process.
A further problem of large cost is
the timbering of the mines. Penn
sylvania timber has long been stripped
the hills and yellow pine from
the South must be brought in. Mine
timberS and lumber cost the operators
s. nN0,090 annually.

NOW A NATION OF o2,826, 3o9
United States Has Made Great Gains
in Population Despite European
War.

The wars are costing the United
States in this decade 100000 in i'm
migrants, yet we are gaining in num-
bers somewhat faster than in the last
decade, or 81 the census bureau esti-
mate of population for January l, 1917,
would indicate. It is 102, S26, 309, or,
including the islands, 113,309,2S5.
The end of the year completes two
thirds of the decade and shows a gain
of not quite 100000, observes the
New York World. A total of $780,
600 or more may be expected in 1920.
If peace had continued, a gain of near
ly 20,00O,000 would not have been i'm
possible.
To New York the census bureau as
signs for six and two-thirds years more
than twice the gain the state census
allowed for five years; it is doubt
less nearer the truth. By 1920 the EN-
pire state should reach IL, 10000. At
the present ate Pennsylvania should
increase 100000 in ten years. Cali.
fornia 100000, Texas S64,OO0, and Hi
nois $4,000. California has already
about as many people as declared their
independence in 1916.
The Emperor Claudius took a census
of 6,945,OO0 Romans-men only. That
may have meant in all 20,OOO,OOO citi-
zenS. Gibbon thought slaves and prov
metals might have made an empire to-
tai of 100, 900, 600, but it was a gener-
Gus guess. The British, Chinese and
Russian empires now surpass the Unit
ed States in total numbers; none
equals it in the number of educated
and energetic whites-unless we count
as a single power the vast Germanic
system which reaches from Antwerp
to Bagdad under the rule of Berlin.

CLUE TO CAUSE OF CANCER
Perhaps There Is Good Reason Why
Moses Forbade Use Of Pork
to Hebrews.

The latest scientific support for the
Mosaic code is perhaps not a very
great matter, but it is immensely in
teresting, writes the medical CORE
spondent of the London Times. In
the last issue of the British Journal
of Surgery there appears a paper de.
scribing the appearances OF certain
blood cells in malignant disease (can-
cer). The author is a well-known OBJ.
server. Certain peculiarities of the
cells of the blood were noted by him
in cancer cases, and it then occurred
to him that these changes might also
be produced by taking certain ar
ticles of diet. He carried out various
tests, and the following is his con.
clusion:
ut was found that one can repro.
duce the blood picture of carcinoma
(cancer) in respect to the nuclear
pseudopods by partaking of certain
articles of food-notably pork, and to
a less extent other red meats" He
adds: incidentally, these observa-
tons suggest the physiological reason
for the dietary imposed upon the He
brew race Gen. 9, 4; Lev. ID"
While no hurried conclusions must
be arrived at on the strength OF what
is, after all, only a very small item
in the picture of the disease, it is vet
fair comment that since one phase
of the blood picture produced by cir.

can be initiated by ingestion of highly
heterogeneous food ii. e., pork, etc., it
suggests that long-continued overuse

MUST RAISE THEIR RATES
Publishers Compelled to Ask More for
Advertising Space Because Of
High Cost of Paper.

Members of the Missouri Press AS.
ISOLATION, at a called meeting in the
Planters Hotel the other afternoon,
unanimously adopted a resolution re.
questing Attorney General McAllister
to investigate an alleged paper COM
bine, which they say has more than
doubled the price of print paper in
the last year.
The association also unanimously
adopted a resolution presented by
Fred Naeter of Cape Girardeau that
the papers raise their subscription and
advertising rates at once because of
the great increase in the cost of ma
terials. Naeter said the raise in pa
per prices is driving many useful pa
pers out of business.
The motion for an investigation was
made by William r. Painter of Car
%rollton, Mo.
Painter, in his speech urging the
motion, declared that as a successful
investigation Of the large packing
plants was carried on, he saw no rea-
son why the same thing could not be
done with the pape houses. He de-
clared he would rather pay seven
cents a pound for paper than yield to
their demands.
A fiery speech was made by George
H. Scruton, editor Of Sedalia Demo-
srat.
The jobbers are getting rich by
? tknC money from us like candy from
children" he declared. There's an
Illegal combination here"
He demanded an Investigation.
When Southern told him the Depart
ment of Justice would like to have
any facts he possessed, Scruton stated
he had expressed his belief, but had
no proof.
A motion was adopted asking the
state legislature to establish a state
paper mill.

AVlAT0RS GIVEN HARD TEST
Filters in the Service Of France Must
Measure Up to Strictest of
Requirements.

The acceptance as aviatOrs in the
French service of so many sons of
wealthy American families proves that
these young men are far from being
the '1anneled fools and muddled OATS"
whom Kipling once rallied against on
the other side of the water. The phys
zeal and mental requirements of the
French service, in the case of aviators,
are of the severest sort. They are
now being tested not only for strength
and ordinary intelligence, but are re-
qutred TO demonstrate the quickneSS
of their response to visual, audi
tory and tactual impression. their
"pSychOmetric reactions :" that is to
say, they are required to prove that to
anything that is suddenly seen, or
heard, or felt, their minds react ac-
curately within a space of time that
figures itself down to hundredthS of a
second. Without this quickness of per-
ception and of action upon perception,
In addition to iron courage and endur-
ance, the war aviator is of little use.
The apparatus of the French service
even rests n candidate sang frOid
by recording his heart-beats, his color,
his movement or absence of movement,
under the stress of a surprise pistol
shot fired at the back of his neck.
Then, suppOsing that his "psychometric
reactions are all right, the man must
have good knowledge of the rules of
war, of geography, of meteorology,
and other things besides. And finally
he must be willing to subject himself,
as a corporal or a sergeant, to an army
discipline much severer than anything
he has ever known before. 1t is fair
to assume that the successful Ameri-
can candidate for this service has
proved his possession of the real stuff
of manhood.

Names Of Flowers.

1t is interesting TO know how GER
tain flowers got their names. Many
were named after individuals. For
instance, Fuchsias were so called be.
cause they were discovered by Leon.
ard Fuchs. Dahlias were named for
Andre Dahl, who brought them from
Peru. The Camelia was so called for
a missionary named Kamel, who
brought some magnificent specimens
Of the flower 10 France from Japan.
He called it the Rose of Japan, but
his friends changed it to Camelia.
Magnolias were named in honor of
Prof. Magnol de Montpelier, who first
brought the beautiful trees to France
from America and Asia. Because they
tremble with the wind is the meaning
OF Anemones. The Latin word to wash
Is lavare, and Lavender received its
because the Romans put the
lower into the water when they
washed, to perfume their hands.

Eight fires broke out at the same
time in various sections of Modesto.
From midnight until dawn the city
was IN a fever OF apprehension. Hun
dreds of citizens armed themselves and
there WAS danger for a time that they
would stage a lynching bee. Peace
officers prevailed, however. and citi-
zens contented themselves with putting
into Jail 40 !. w. w. members.
All of the Modesto fires were started
by balls Of phosphorus thrown into dry
hay. In Stockton, the Modesto winery

company's hose was found to be dis

washington, Oct. 8.-The senate
sub committee named to investigate,
disloyalty charges filed against SEN
ator La Toilette meets today to Law
its plans. Start of the probe awaits
delivery by the Wisconsin solon of his

Whether La Toilette misrepresented
the Lusitania case promises to be a
critical point In the investigation, DOS

tary Lansing, w. ]. Bryan, and others.
The sub committee is empowered to
inquire first elf La Toilette made GER
tain statements in his speech, and IL
so, where he got the data on which he
based his claims, especially that the
Lusitania illegally carried six million
rounds of ammunition. Bryan denies
he told President Wilson this before
the liner sailed and Lansing made the
same denial officially to Germany.
The sub committees makeup caus-
ed considerable comment today. SEN
ators Pomerene, Walsh and James are
Democrats while the two Republican
