To pay these would require several

The prospects are that the No

there are some unexpected windfalls
into the state treasury, and none now
are In sight.
The state Is facing a deficit Of be-
tween $4,000 and $3.50, 900 Jan. /.
This condition. however, is an i'm.
mense financial improvement over pre-.
vious years, when the deficit ran much
higher.
Hickman has been setting aside
the public schools portion of one-third
Of the revenue monthly. SO that when
the year ends the schools will have
received their full chare, with the ex-
ception Of the December allotment,

Where the Coal Goes.

Certain railroad men have views Of
their own as to the coal shortage.
They contend that 50 per cent Of the
product mined in southern Illinois Is
sold in Chicago. and that large quaint
ties have been shipped to Ohio and
Michigan. The repeated strikes have
tended to reduce the output Of the
illinois, Missouri. Kansas. Oklahoma
and Arkansas mines. The great bulk
Of coal for the Missouri railroads
comes from Illinois mines. Some OF
the Kansas and Oklahoma coal comes
to Missouri and some Of the Missouri
coal goes to Kansas.

Lieut.. Howell. Wounded Twelve
Times at VermeIIeS, Goes

With two pieces OF a German smell
in his right lung and minus the night
side of his collar bone. Lieut. c. P.
Cough How ell OF the royal field ar
tillery OF England passed through Ho-
nolulu yesterday on the Makura. on
his way to the AntipOdes to recuPer-
ate. He was accompanied by his wife
whom he met while she was driving
a hospital ambulance from the train
to the Devonshire hospital, when he
returned to England from the trenches
of France more than a year ago.
A graduate OF Cambridge university
he enlisted for service immediately
after war broke ont but il was not
until May Of the following year that
he reached France. His regiment was
sent to Messines where they held d
front of 1000 yards.
We were only allowed TO fire 4
dozen rounds a day and that was
more in the nature OF a bluff tllau
anything else" he said to a Star-Bui-
!etln reporter Yesterday.
IN those days We did not have the
ammunition and had the BOsches
charged us We could not have stopped
them, but things are different now.
Instead Of 1000 yards a division holds
only a quarter of a mile of trenches
and has all the ammunition it wants.
The gunners can keep on firing day
and night if they want TO without any
visible decrease in the supply.
In September Of the same year we
were sent to l.oos and took part i'll
the offensive in that sector. We lived
in smoke helmets pretty near al; TIE

was pretty quiet there and in No

, The Germans located our sap
trench and hurled barrage over the
point where the sap ran into the
main front trench so that We could
not return. Then they opened up with
their heavy guns on the sap itself.
