quest Of Fuel administrator Henry 4
Garfield. These men have undertaken
a work among the colored miners In
the southern part Of the state which
made a most favorable impression on
Dr. Garfield when he heard Of 1t. and
he sent for them 10 learn more from
them about it. Briefly. the scheme
that they are working is 10 encourage
coal production among the miners by
getting three Of them to load the coal
cars that each drafted miner would
load had he not been called away TO
the army from his work. Where the
drafted miner has dependents. three
miners toll off together. and by agree

miners too turning in the money to
help the support the family OF the
miner who has gone forth to fight. TO
make the novel scheme a success,

WARSAW, ILL.,, June S.-The
storm Tuesday night staged minla-
ture cyclone in Ralston park, break
ing limbs off of all of the trees, some
pretty large. In Louis Brinkmann' $
| back ward west of the park, a large
! tree was twisted off close to the
| ground Much damage was done to
| trees and shrubbery all over town
On South Fourth street, west of the
/ grounds of w. p. Hammond, there
| is a fill over 500 feet long, which
| over a year ago was strengthened
by cement wall and several an
chors. 1t cost the city about S1,6O0
for the wall the widening OF the
road on the west, cement sidewalk
and other improvements. About 200
feet of this wall, with its fill and
sidewalk, was swept away at Ii
o'clock Tuesday morning during the
heaviest part of that storm. This bit
of street is on the direct line OF
travel from the bottoms, and Its clos
ing would be serious inconveni-
ence. However, this is not contem-
plated The edge of the cave-in has
been fenced to avoid accidents and
when repairs are begun the fill will
be made on the east side of the road
which will better protect 1t and pre-
vent future washouts of like nature.

Charlie Hollocher, youthful short

with the Keokuk Indians in 1913, Is
playing sensational baseball with the
Portland Beavers in the Pacific
Coast league. Big league clubs are
angling for him but the manager OF
the Beavers is loath to part with his
brilliant young star.
The following story was printed IN
the Evening Herald Of Los Angeles
during recent series between Port
land and Los Angeles:
''I'n send you enough good ball
players to win the Coast league pen
nant this year, If you will give me
Shortstop Hollocher." That was the
received today by Walter
McCredie from Manager Miller Hug

folding up the telegram. "Hollocher
looks like good ball player to me
and l am going to hold on to him
FOR some time"
McCredie believes he will be able
TO make a cash deal for Hollocher
and deliver the player next spring.

football players. About eighty of
them have reported for organization
and iimbering up the past forty
eight hours, and the>prospects are so
good that Coach Raken said to-day:
"l believe that we have material that
by midseason can beat any eleven in
the country" A rough gridiron has
been laid out in camp, but in a few
days real practice will begin on
Muhlenberg Field.
Among the men whom Coach Ra-

Select Umpires
The commission selected Umpires
OLoughlin and Evans, of the Amer
lean League, and Umpires KLEIN and
Rigler, of the National League, to
officiate.
That the soldiers who are now do
ing battle for the country, as we'll
as those who are preparing to fight
for liberty, were remembered was
indicated by an announcement that
a 1000-word story will be cabled to
France after each game for the
benefit of the soldiers there. while
an exhibition game before the SOL
diers at either Fort Sheridan or Min
cola will be played after the series
is over. In addition to this, a spe-
cial invitation to attend all of the
games will be sent President Wilson
and Generals Barry, Carter, Bell and
Mccain, while at the opening game
in Chicago 1900 reserved seats have
been set aside for the soldiers at
Fort Sheridan. The commission al
so decided to give 1 per cent. of the
total of the commissions revenue
from the games to the bat and ball
fund of the soldiers in France.
The headquarters of the commits
sion during the New York series will
be at the Waldorf Astoria and at the
Congress Hotel while the teams are
in Chicago.
Plans were discussed for taking
the two teams to France for a series
of games for the benefit of Ameri-
can soldiers there. President Com
iseey asserted it would cost between
$4,000 and $1,000 to make the
journey.
