IRENE FENWICK COMING FEATURE AT THE DREAM.

Oil and water will not mix-that is an old axiom, but it is no truer than the fact that Fifth Avenue and Coney Island are not intended to meet and mingle on the same so- cial plane. Slices from these two very different strata of society meet and try to mingle on the screen in the Famous Players Film Com pany's production of "A Coney Isl- and Princess" adapted from Ed ward Sheldon's play, "The Princess Zim-Zim," in which Irene Fenwick the popular stage favorite, appears in the title role, supported by Owen Moore. The subject presents one of the most fascinating combin- ations of comedy and drama ever contained in photoplay.
 Can you imagine Coney Island dancer, Tessie Mooney, introduced to Fifth Avenue as the fiancee of one of the -four hundred?" The hu- morous episodes that follow are nu- merous and delightful. but the pho toplay is not without it's touch of drama and it's deeper and more ap- pealing element of romance.

ASTRONOMERS PREPARE
 FOR NEXT GREAT ECLIPSE

Astronomers throughout the country already are preparing for the work of observing the total eclipse of the sun, which will occur June 8, 1918, and which will .be visible in it's totality along CO., mile strip extending across the Unit ed States from the southwest cor ner of the State of Washington, on the Pacific coast, to Florida, on the Atlantic.
 Astronomers consider themselves unusually fortunate in their oppor- tunity for observing this eclipse, one of the seven visible in the Unit ed States during the present cen tury, in that the center line of this 60-mile strip passes within four miles of the observatory at Denver University, where photographs of the corona of the sun will be taken with the aid of the great telescope which is equipped with 20-inch lens.

 We are about to enter into a new year and 1918 will bring to the people of this nation a condition for which there is no precedent, and which will produce results that can only be conjectured. All earnest and right-minded citizens are trying to conduct their affairs so that from a personal as we'll as public spirited point of view their efforts may trend toward the improvement of national conditions and do justice to the best interests of the people of this country.
 Among other broad and interesting subjects which must be discussed and duly considered is that which refers to sport, so called ,ahd the re- lations which the various sporting interests of this country may bear to the serious side of life and the uplifting of national standards. Fore most among these questions will be that Of racing. Will the community approve of and endorse the racing of horses on the various courses of this country in 1918, and will it be for the best interests of the people? To the first query we answer with out hesitation in the affirmative, and we may point with confidence to the example in this respect set by the people of Great Britain and France. Racing properly conducted has been countenanced and support ed by the best elements of those two nations and we are certain that such will be the case with racing here as it is at present carried on. To the second query, which is different and perhaps more important one, we also answer strongly in the af- firmative.
 For over one hundred and fifty years the thoroughbred horse, so- called. has been the chief element in breeding animals of courage, sub stance, general utility and value; from the strain comes not only the race horse of today but that magnifi- cent animal known as the American trotter, for there is no important animal of this typical American breed of horse that will not trace his pedi-

IMMENSE GLACIER
 IS CREATED BY
 COLD IN OHIO RIVER

CINCINNATI, Dec. 30.-Two To- cal activities of the ice gorge in the Ohio river, below Fernbank Dam, last night presaged the early movement of a veritable glacier 80 miles in length, unless the cold wave expected today offsets the effect of rising river.
 The Ohio river is now frozen almost solidly to the bottom from the Medoc Bar, below Fernbank Dam, to Madison, Ind. From the dam another gorge, extending up the river, has now reached a point just below the Southern railway bridge, in the Cincinnati harbor.

IN letter addressed to E. E. Cooke,
county fuel administrator. ]. Walter
Barnes, iuel administrator for the State,
explains why il is difficult TO get coal for
this county. The burden OF i seems to
be that more coal has already been ship
ped into the county than was shipped all
OF last winter. Our needs in other years
have been taken as basis for estimating
our needs for this winter
The Philadelphia and Reading Coal and
Iron Company, which sells most OF the
hard coal that comes here, states ttdt it
has shipped already 62l tons to Shep-
herdstown. whilelsst year during the same
period they shipped only $50 tons and
the year before ASP tons To Charles
Town The same people assert they have
shipped this year 1870 tons as against 763
tons tast year. Harper's Ferry has got
ten this year from them 4S9 tons as against
425 tons last year and 325 tons the year
before.
The supply OF coal furnished last year
or the year before is no criterion by
which TO Judge the deeds of the present
winter. With more than two solid
months OF freezing weather, naturally it
has taken almost double the amount of
coal that is ordinarily used. The people
are not asking for more coal then they
really need. At The high prices that have
prevailed no ore is going to burn it I'M
necessarily. just for the fun OF seeing it
go up in smoke.

ia Jewel, as she was known on the

sition such as but few women OF the
stage have achieved in that city. 1t
was while Miss Jewel was living in
Washington that she met Congress
man Brown, and after a romantic
