KILLING ACCIDENTAL

Albany Coroner Finds No Act of
 Criminality in McDonald's Death
 Club Physician Had No License.
 Albany, Feb. 3.-There was no act of criminality in connection with the boxing bout here Tuesday night in which Stephen T. Mcdonald was killed by Llow under the heart de- livered by William Hicks, Coroner Warren s. Hastings decided after an inquest yesterday.
 He subsequently, discharged Hicks and six other men, including officers of the sporting club which staged the bout and seconds of the principals, who had been under bail on a charge of manslaughter in the second degree.
 The coroner found, however, that Dr. A. H. Wheeler, the physician who examined Mcdonald before he en- tered the ring. although a graduate of recognized medical college and possessed of several years practical experience, was not licensed. This fact was ordered brought to the at- tention of tine boxing commission. Commissioners John Franey of AL bany, who saw the fatal exhibition, was a witness. He merely submitted and proved the commissions rules.
 The coroner's physician who per formed the autopsy on the body of Mcdonald testified that all his organs were in normal condition.

that John d. Rockefeller let down

as a financier met with chilly re-

Hints For Conserving
Coal

Floyd w. Parsons in The Goa
Age: The production of anthracite
and bituminous coal in the United
States this year will doubtless be
greater than ever before. However
consumption Of fuel today far ex-
ceeds the requirements of past
periods, and the American people
can only avoid distressful conditions
this winter by exercising the great
est care and intelligence In the use
of coal. The following suggestions,
If followed by the Is million people
who shovel coal into household
furnaces, will result in the saving OF
millions of tons Of fuel:
Don't burn coal in an open crate,
for in such a practice as per cent or
more of the heat goes up the chin
ney.
It isn't necessary to have every
room heated. Most people would oe
healthier il they slept in cold bed
rooms.
Examine furnace and see that
there are no cracks at floor line to
permit air leakage into the ashpit.
Endeavor to keep the entire fuel
space Of your range or furnace hlled,
heaping the coal slightly in the CEN
ter. Don't let the fuel hurn down too
low. Thin fires mean waste. Break
Jumps to about egg size.
Feed the fire and shake the CRATE
at regular intervals. Two or three
times daily is generally sufficient.
Shake down the ashes before adding
fresh coal and stop shaking the
moment the first bright spot appears
under the CRATE.
If the fire has burned very low and
more heat Is desired, open damper in
the ashpit and add a small quantity
of coal In this particular case, do
not shake the CRATE until this fresh
coal is well ignited, then shake down
the ashes and again add fuel
Don't leave feed door drafts open
and admit cold air over a glowing
fuel bed at any time. Air for COM
bustion should be drawn through the
burning bed of coal, and, as a gen.
be accomplished by closing the
ashpit. damper and opening the
check damper in the smoke pipe.
The check damper should never be
opened until the ashpit damper is
closed. The shutoff damper in the
smoke pipe may be partly closed in
case of an unusually strong draft
or to check the fire in mild weather.
Before feeding a furnace see that
the shutoff damper In the pipe Is
open, and close the check damper.
This prevents the escape Of dust.
Keep the ashpit empty. Remove
ashes at least once daily, and be
sure to sift all ashes to recover the
good coal.
Clean flues frequently: with soft
coal every other day is none too often
to give the, furnace a brushing down
One-eighth inch of ashes and SCOT on
boiler surfaces retards heat transfer
25 per cent.
Careful sealing OF a house by
means of weather strips, double win-
dows, ETC., results in a material saw
ing of fuel. Don't forget, however
that If the basement walls are air
tight, provision must be made for
an ample supply of air for combus-
ton.

HOW BRITISH AIDED ITALY.

British assistance reached the
Italians yesterday.
It arrived by way of st. Quentin,
when the British went over the top
in surprise attack which resulted
in what was probably the biggest
single days advance recorded since
the armies dug themselves in on the
western front.
It was a blow direct at the heart
of the Lille Douai- Cambria line, said
TO be the last entrenched line the
Germans have until the border is
reached.
There are two especially encour-
aging features to the attack: one
that it was successful as a surprise,
and the other. that the German de-
Tense was so slight comparatively.
The fact that the British were able
to make such a tremendous offensive
as surprise movement, shows that
they must have command Of the air,
and that the British high command
has the nerve. the men, the guns, and
the brains to vary its system Of Of
tense. For weeks it has been ham
mering away at the Flanders front,
concentrating huge masses Of men
and guns there. Germany was fore
ed TO concentrate troops against
them, and all other available effec-
tives were sent to Italy. Suddenly
the blow is shifted to another point.
It proves that the British have guns
to spare for more than one offensive
at time, and from a tactical stand
point the Germans were plainly out
guessed.
The fact that the German de-
fensive was so slight, would indicate
that the western lines may have been
drawn on for the Italian movement,
and this attack therefore win re-
lieve the pressure on Northern Italy.
II was the most effective aid Great
Britain could render.
She refused to play Germany's
game, but insisted on playing her
own. From a military point Of view
the forced retirement of the Germans
from the Lille Douai- Cambrai line
would Offset even the capture of
Venice. Neither has been accom-
pllshed yet but one appears to be as
probable as the other.

country has produced in recent
years. They also had the spirit Of
prophecy, and should be able to
bequeath 1t to the National party
practically as good as new. Any
thing the new party needs in that
line the former Progressives can
supply.
We know. We were of them. We
were OF those who saw in the forma-
ton Of the Progressive party a repe-
tition OF the history OF the RepubH-
tional emergency, the same revolt
against the old order, the same moral
upheaval and rebellion of spirit.
Everything was the same except
the outcome. There the analogy
faded, petered out and was not. We
have never understood why, but 1t
was so. 1t ought not to have been,
but 1t was. The auguries were right,
the oracles agreed. the prophets
propitious. The Republican party had
sprung up when nobody was look
ing. Sowed overnight, 1t was a full
crop next morning. The Progress
sive party would be the same. 1t
would spread like a fire in dry
stubble. 1t was bound to-the Re-
publican party did. The stubble was
dry, the Progressives We're all fired
up and there was a good wind blow
ing.
Well, well-that was in the long
ago. We are old now and like to sit
by the fire seeing pictures in the
flame. We hope the Nationalists
won't mind US. 1t isn't that we don't
believe in encouraging youthful
hope and ambition. We do. We like
to see youth buckling on its armor,
and we hope it will always come and
stand by our knee and tell US what
it is going to do. It kindles our old
heart to see the glow in Its cheek
and the glad light of expectancy
in its eyes. Happy, happy youth!
But the Progressive party was fine
youth, too. Prettiest you ever saw,
tall and straight. and such a noble
brow. AS we mind us. the down was
scarce upon its chin. Well-a-day!
The National party has got a
chairman. an executive committee,
a platform and everything. Yes,
yes! 1t all comes back to us. The
Progressives had those things, too.
And hope and zeal-crusaders was
the word. we believe. Yes, memory
comes with a rush now-we said we
were crusaders. The light. of the
morning was in our eyes and our
faces were lifted up to the rose Of
dawn. Well. well-these be profit
less musings. There were of yester-
day, and he is today and the new
National party. full of hope and
vision and prophecy. Summoned by
a national emergency, a moral up
heaval-and what was the other?-

II seems to me sir, that the time
has come for people who are patri-
otto first, and for the best price Tor

together on some practical plan to
conscript a ticket Of patriots, who
are known to be such, to be men OF

gather a great state convention OF

their loyalty to the government,

assembled select q ticket that will be
accountable to all the elements that
the Nonpartisan league does not rep
resent, and by that we mean people
who are loyal without faint OF gain
personally.
Then let the Democratic party put
that ticket in the field and invite
the support of all people who belleVe
that our President and our country
are supreme, who are willing TO let
petty disputes remain for adjust
ment after the deadly peril to our
country is gone.
Let us once and for all find out
if Gronna, Baer, Townley and that
bunch really represent the loyalty or
the state.
If then they are in the majority
they will also have the responsibility
Of government Of the state.
Loyal people will not then feel
that they have neglected their duty

to elect congressman or senator's OF
