Miners Showed Patriotism
Colorado Men Made Splendid
Record i'm Production

WASHINGTON, Dec. 5.~Sincc the
entry OF the United States into the
world war made the production Of coal
a subject Of national vital interest, coal
operators in Colorado and the inteli-
gent leaders among the miners have
cooperated in efforts to keep the pro-
duction up to a maximum. This has
been difficult in view of the inroads
made upon the working forces by the
draft, voluntary enlistments and by in
ducements offered in other lines of in.
dustrial work.
Facing the necessity of mining more
coal than ever before with a decreased
number of men in the mines, leaders of
the industry in the state concentrated
their efforts on securing steady work
and maximum efficiency from the men.
The effort has been distinctly success
full.
With the formation of the Production
Division Of the United States Fuel Ad
ministration and the appointment of a
Production Manager for Colorado, the
endeavor to increase the output of the
mines was systematizcd under national
auspices. Following the suggestion of
James b. Neale, Director of Production
of the United States Fuel Administra-
ton, modified to meet local conditions,
production committees were organized
in most of the mines of the state.
These committees, selected by the
miners themselves, were made re-
sponsible for the steady and efficient
work of the employees. A man who
fails to report at the mine each work
ing day of the month is investigated
by the Production Committee, and if
his excuse does not appear valid. he
is reported to the Production Manager
who, in turn, sends the name of the
delinquent to the Fuel Administrator
in Washington.
Through the efforts of these local
production committees and the appre-
citation on the part Of the miners OF the
need for more coal, the customs of lay
ing off at frequent intervals has been
largely abandoned. Steady work has
increased the output per man, and in
consequence has raised the tonnage
produced in the state. With very few
exceptions. Colorado miners realize the
responsibility that is placed upon them
and are doing their part by working
steadily and faithfully.
The miners of the state also have
made extremely creditable records in
their subscriptions to the various Lib
erty loans and other contributions to
war work finds raised by various organ
izations.

PARIS, Dec. 1.-The remarkable rev.
Citations made during the Cavallini trial
in Rome as to the efforts Germany
made in November, 1914, through her
agent, Lorenzo dAdda, to induce
France to agree to separate peace
were supplemented by Take Jonescu, of
the Rumanian Cabinet, in an interview
he gave me this morning.
"The evidence at the Cavallini trial
relating to Germany's effort to make
separate peace with France in Novem-
Der. 1914" he said, "recalls an even
earlier attempt toward the same end.
We had, in Rumania, an old German
professor, former railway official VINO
held a chair at our school for civil en-
cheering. He had married Rumanlan
and had lived so long in our country
that thought he was naturallzed'
which was not the case. When the war
broke out Professor Shave, as he was
called, was in Berlin.
"Shortly after the war began l re-
ceived long kilograms from him, some
times two and three day, and often
running several hundred words, giving
me news on the progress of events, and
especially laying stress on the certain
ty of a German victory. AS other Ru-
manians received similar dispatches
from the same source, it was evident
that the cost of such q telegraphic de-
bauch could not be paid for by Shave
himself. l was annoyed because at that
time / believed him to be Rumanlan
subject.

Antwerp and the Battle of the Marine
Shave, to my establishment, came from
Berlin to see me at Sinaia. He was in
such q hurry to see me that he did
not even stop to brush off the dust
which had gathered during the automo'
bile journey from Bucharest to Sinaia
Before he could open the converse
ton I began to reproach him for send
ing kilograms so unworthy of Ru-
manian subject
"Shlawe replied that he had never
become naturalized, and pleaded that
he was only doing his duty by serving
, his country. Then he made most as
tonishing proposal.

French Girls Good Listeners

A soldier who is coming home to
marry an American girl says
"The charm of the French home life
is revelation. The French girls stand
the beauty test every time. Their
keen humor doesn't take the form of
the verbal sparring and the cheap
banter Of the American debutante.
They can talk we'll and intelligently,
and what is more, they can listen. y

the wads in this case had been made
by cutting pieces out of pasteboard
box So there were number of clues
at hand.
Special Agent Billy Gard stood on
the spot from which the shot had
been fired. From this point to that at
which the buckshot had entered the
wall of the cabin was not more than
thirty feet.
An ordinary shotgun at thirty
feet" he reflected remembering his
squirrel hunting days, Shoots almost
like rife. The shot at that distance
are all in bunch not bigger than
your fist. Yet the shot in the cabin
wall were scattered. The man with
the gun must have been further
away"
Gard stated this view of the matter
to the mountaineer, but that individu-
al showed how 1t would have been i'm
possible for the shot to have been
fired from a greater distance because
there was a depression that would
have placed the man with the gun too
low down to see In at the window.
The shot could have been fred from
but the one spot. The window pane
through which the shot had passed
was about half way between the peg
and the wall where the charge had
lodged. The hole in the window was
not more than half as large as the
wall surface peppered by the shot.
This scatter of shot at such short
range was significant.
"The shot must have been fred
from a sawed-off shotgun said the
special agent. "Only short-barreied
gun would have scattered so much at
this short range"
He meditated moment and then
asked:
Who is there around here who has
sawed-off shotgun"
"Ty Jones has got one," said Sam.
rs he friendly to your" asked Gard.
NO" was the reply. THE revenue
agents chopped up his still after re-
ported It,"
Did he ever threaten your"
He said onst at the crossroads that
he knew bear with a sore head that
f'table cause 1t was goin' to lose that
head"
. Here was probable case Of Ty
Jones being the man guilty of the at
tempt on the life of Lunsford. There
was possibility, as Gard saw 1t, of
getting this SUSPICION confirmed.
