OPPORTUNITY OFFERED
COAL OPERATORS.

A process approved by the United
States bureau of mines and of great
interest to miners and operators is
the manufacture of pure sulphur from
waste coal brass. The process, after
more than five years laboratory work,
has been found practical and has been
brought to the attention of the Ma
tional Coal Association.
The cost Of the extraction is not
more than So ton. The waste coal
brass is roasted and the resulting
dioxide gas cooled and cleaned by
passing it thru scrubbing tower.
Then thru an additional process Of
heating and the addition of hydro
carbon gas in a special room or con-
tact chamber the sulphur may be
cooled to any condition, lump, pow
dered or flowers.
The report says that the operation
is particularly adapted to coal mines
owing to the cheapness Of fuel, and
which makes up the greater part Of
the cost Of the process. At sulphur
mines on the gulf coast the cost Of
production is about $40 ton. Large
consumers are now paying $50
ton for their requirements. The Ma
tional Coal Association is prepared to
answer any inquiries from it's men,
bers concerning the process.

ern Union telegraphers, despite the
fact that under their vicious man
killing speeding bonus system some
of the 'speeders-up' handled seventy
five messages per hour and many ham
died several hundred day. Taken
all thru Western Union employees have
handled an average of only about ten
are the highest and the service taken
on the whole, the poorest.
Cut From Under Tyranny.
Improvement in the service should
come and will come quickly. Improve
at once. The workers will soon be cut
from under the tyranny of the for
mer petty chief system. Unifcation
of the two telegraph companies with
the consequent saving of labor, dupli-
cation and unnecessary expense of
double system will mean a great eco
nomic gain. Should be one of the first
steps. The elimination of high-sal-
aried and useless official solicitors and
advertising doubtless will quickly fol-
low. Combination of telegraph offices
in connection with the postoffice wher-
ever practicable will be another gain.
"A great saving in bookkeeping
and auditing will come thru the elimi-
nation of duplicated departments and
establishing the postage stamp sys-
tenn for kilograms. This is not only
going to save labor and money, but it
will help to simplify and popularize
the telegraph. About ten clerical
transactions are now required to han
die telegram under private control
Not more than two will be needed
with the postage stamp system. Sys-
tenn and equalization will enable the
departments to handle greater vol
ume of business without the man
wrecking speeding-up. Under decent
wages and fair treatment hundreds,
perhaps thousands, of telegraphers
may return to the business.
Wire System to Expand.
Everywhere under the private mo-
nopoly there has been duplication and
waste. There were, previous to the
adoption of the night letter, only
about per cent of messages filed that
wereof a social character. The re-
mainder were business. The tolls
were SO high. the telegraph was be-
yond the reach of the people and was
not of popular benefit.
Joint operation of the telephone
and telegraph systems will be desir-
able. This will make the wire re-
sources Of the great unified systems
practically unlimited.
"The system will be greatly ex-
tended as the popularity grows. There
is nothing particularly new in this
idea of government ownership of the
telegraph. The first lines were
owned by the government. Every
postmaster general since the days Of
John Wansmaker has advocated this
ownership. In his message to the Sem
ate in 1914, Postmaster General Burle-
son strongly advocated taking over
the telegraph and said: THE monopo-
listic nature of the telegraph busi-
ness makes it of vital importance to
the people that it be conducted by un-
selfish interests and this can be ac-
complished only thru government
ownership agree with Mr.. Burle-
sons statement. Now we are about
to accomplish long cherished dream
and all the people will get the benefit"

LYRIC

Rolling Stones presented by the
Poll players at the Lyric this week
promises to be one of the most popular
Lyric stock house this year. The play
itself is unique in many respects and
up-to-date in all respects.
Jericho W. Braden, masquerading
in q boarding house as Mr.. Walters,
takes the part of the rich heir to a
iourishing business very well anG
makes an unusual hit with the audi
ence. Dudley Ayers as Buck Ryder
and Warda Howard as Anna Ander-
sot are. an attractive pair and show
some excellent acting in the course of
the play. Gladys Knorr as Norma
Briggs who falls in love with the
wrong Mr. Braden does extremely we'll
in the part and plays some touching
love scenes with the pseudo Mr.. Bra
den and her acting at times is more
than ordinary.
The play is prettily woven aroused
the plot of Buck Ryder being down
and out and hearing that ]. w. Bra
den is coming to that city to inherit
a fortune decides to stake his all and
introduce a pseudo Braden to take
the fortune. Walter, who is really
Braden, is in the same boat but Ry-
der induces a friend to act as Mr..
Braden and take the fortune. Trou-
BILE ensues for all when Walter proves
that he is Bralen and has not been
killed in train wreck as supposed.
The men are given a chance, however,
and when Ryder and his accomplice
discovers burglars in the act of steal
ing the firms money and blowing a
safe Braden takes the two into part
nership with him and they marry the
girls of their choice without interior

PLAZA

The Six Virginia Steppers headlined
the bill at the Place yesterday and
offered a series of terpischorean fam
tastes. Lovers of the popular craze
became so enthusiastic that the clever
sextette was brought back for several
encores and it was voted the most
popular dancing Offering of the sea-
son. ~ VI sci
The International Four, a quartet
of boys who can sing and play musical
instruments in a manner that made
them favorites with the crowd had
an important spot. One of the boys
is a popular Bridgeport lad and his
entrance last evening brought forth a
veritable tornado of applause from
his friends and admirers.
Gladstone and Leonard had skit
which they chose to term Alfalfa and
Buttercup," and they scored many a
laugh in unraveling their humorous
dialogue.
One of the cleverest wire offerings
ever offered local theatre geers was
found in that presented by the Three
Rosaries and it sent the vaudeville
end of the bill over the top with
flying colors
The main feature on the screen pro-
gram is shoes That Danced" a ro-
nance of the lower East Side with
Pauline Starke in the leading role.
The picture is unusually interesting
and one that affords many thrills.
It was followed by several very funny
comedy films.

POLI'S

The Boganny troupe now appear
ing at Polls, are whirlwind in their
speedy work and comic interpreta-
ton. They are increasing in number
and in quality at each temperance
in Bridgeport. Last night the work
of the entire troupe was widely &C
claimed as perfect. Several lillipu-
tians add greatly to the froIic of
fun.
T:.o =ocond episode of The Eagles
Eye" is one of the most momentous
of all picture offerings shown in
Bridgeport. Delving deeply into the
German spy system in America, for
mer Chief William J. Flynn of the
United States Secret Service, is MAX
ing it impossible for repetitions of
the plots that shook America at the
outset Of the war to exist again. Last
nights disclosure of the plot to destroy
American naval officers in New York
was most realistic.

Bridgeport audiences at Polls in the
Pathe play, THE Mad Lover" To

FOR THE SOLDIERS.

Very soon the second draft contin-
gent will be getting ready for camp
and there will be thousands of wom-
en- all over the country busy. making
articles of wearing apparel for their
soldiers. The woven names on narrow
strips of tape are excellent for the
purpose and are much better than
tapes marked with indelible ink.
Order the woven names well in adj
vance, for with so many people de-
handing them at one time there IS
great likelihood of delay in deliveries.
Every sock, handkerchief, cap and
article of underclothing, as well as
uniforms, overcoats and gloves,
should have an Identification tag OF
the sort. Nearly a hundred of the
woven names can be purchased for a
trifie over dollar and several
dozen may be sewed on in an hour.

EMPIRE

Tense dramatic situations predomi-
nate in "'Blue Blazes' Rawden,' star
ring William S. Hart, an AIRCRAFT pic
ture produced under the supervision
of Thomas H. Ince, which will be
shown at the Empire theatre today
for the last times.
]. G. Hawks, who wrote the scena-
rio for Hart, adopted the bold expe-
dfency of divesting the noted actor OF
his familiar western garments, and of
replacing the dashing horses and
other usual appurtenances of a Hart
picture with scenes Of dramatic sus-
pense.
There is plenty of action in the
story, which is laid in the snow and
ice bound Canadian Northwest, and
deals with the brawny lumberjacks
and trappers, who were quick to re-
sent with physical force any real or
fancied infringement of their rights.

GIRLS! MAKE A
BEAUTY LOTION
WITH LEMONS

At the cost of a small jar of ordi-
nary cold cream one can prepare a
full quarter pint of the most wonder
full lemon skin softener and complex
ion beautifier, by squeezing the juice
Of two fresh lemons into a bottle con-
tanning three ounces of orchard white.
Care should be taken to strain the
juice through a fine cloth so no lemon
pulp gets in, then this lotion will keep
fresh for months. Every woman
knows that lemon juice is used to
bleach and remove such blemishes as
freckles, sallowness and tan and is the
ideal skin softener, smoothener and
beautifier.
Just try it! Get three ounces of
orchard white at any pharmacy and
two lemons from the grocer and make
up a quarter pint of this sweetly
fragrant lemon lotion and massage it
daily into the face, neck, arms and
hands. 1t should naturally help to
whiten, soften, freshen and bring out
the roses and beauty of any skin. 1t
is truly marvellous to smoother rough,
red hands.-Adv.

CONSTIPATION is
A PENALTY OF AGE

Nothing is so essential to health
in advancing age as freedom and
normal activity of the bowels. 1t
makes one feel younger and
fresher, and forestalls colds, piles,
fevers and other dependent ills.
Cathartics and purgatives are
violent and drastic in action and
should be avoided. A mild, effect
i've laxative. recommended by ply
sicians and thousands who have
used it, is far preferable. This is
the combination of simple laxative
herbs with pepsin sold by drug
gists under the anne of DIR. Cald-
wells Syrup Pepsin. 1t costs only
fifty cents a bottle; a trial bottle,
free of charge, can be obtained by
