Just what the state order will do in
this case, is also conjecture.
Local people report that they have
had difficulty today in securing coal.
There seems to be shortage In fuel,
according to some Of these people
who have tried to get coal. but have
been refused. Dealers said last week
that they had considerable on hand,
and 1t is presumed that more win be

Situation Serious.
The following is from Des Moines
and may shed little more light on
the situation:
UNITED Press Leased Wire Service
DIES MONIES, Iowa. Jan. "a
Iowa'e coal situation is really
serious according TO Charles
/ Webster, state fuel dictator, who
said the state was treading wat
err" In so far as the coal supply
was concerned.
At the same time he announced
that county and local fuel boards
have power to modify but not to
kill the state fuel edict which
will be issued either late today
or tomorrow. Just what the
state order will demand is not
known, but it Is practically GER
tain that the hours of all bust
ness places in the state will be
shortened.
Reports reaching Webster's Of
flee on the order issued last night
asking all stores, except these
of essential need. In Iowa's river
towns to close on Monday, indi-
cate the order would be observed.
Theatres will close on Tues
days. The order applies to the
cities OF Keokuk. Clinton, Fort
Madison. Burlington. Davenport.
and Dubuque.
The complete order will be issued
today, and Keokuk merchants and
business men and amusement seek
ers will then know their status
Theatre managers in Iowa, who have
changed dates for road companies in
order to accommodate Illinois dates
will find themselves in a sort Of
pickle, unless some modification Of
the order Is secured. However, To-
cal theatre managers will observe
the order, whatever it is.

Sinks U-Boat Which
Sank French Cruiser

New York, Oct. 1.-The German
submarine which sank the French
cruiser Dupetit Thours in European
waters August I was in turn de-
stroyed by gun fire from an Ameri-
can freight steamship, one of con-
voy of "a steamers which the
French warship was helping through
the danger zone, it was learned here
today.
According to the report. the at
tack took place at dusk. The cruiser
was steaming about 1000 yards i'll
advance of the convoy, which the
American ship lead. Those aboard
the American vessel heard three ex-
blossoms in succession and saw the
cruiser settle in the water.
Shortly after shouts of warning
were heard from men in a lifeboat
100 yards distant. The submarine
was observed on the surface with the
lifeboat between it and the Amcri-
can vessel. Two shots were fired
over the boat, the second hitting the
C-boat. An explosion followed and
the submarine went down and on
the surface could be seen wreckage,
which indicated that it had been
torn apart.

Trenton, y. J., Oct. An at
tempt to insert a plank endorsing

the democratic party Of New Jersey
failed today after a stormy session
of the state convention called to
adopt declaration of principles for

The plank was opposed by James

LIONS and BEAR
TRAIN MEMBERS
OF OMAHA 4. C..
Novel Training Stunts Planned
by Director to Develop
Morale and Power of
Athletes.

Two sturdy lions and one or more
bears will be imported as sparring
and wrestling partners for men,
bers of the new Omaha Athletic
club, which will open its doors dur
ing the latter part of October.
The decision to introduce two of
tile dcadliest fighters of the feline
species into his athletic curriculum
for the new gymnasium was reach
cd after careful study of the train
ing careers of most noted pugllistic
champions Of former days. Several
OF these former ring generals, whose
iootwork resmbled the catlike
Tread of the panther and whose
arms held the potentlalities OF chain
&C lightning gained their indomit-
able morale and power through con-
tinued physical contests with lions.
Psychologically this story is quite
plausible. By the we'll authenticate
Cd and demonstrated hypothetical
laws of psychology. mental sugges-
ton is substantial and material
TACT.
Will Take Out Teeth.
Pursuant to this hypothesis, the,
sub-consciouS Or subjective mind or
men continually contesting the men
tal and physical supremacy of the
Inightiest of the beast kingdom, OBJ
Niously would assume the charac-
teristics OF his antagonists strategy
ard morale. These continued con-
tests result in the assimilation by
the sub-consciouS mind OF the mi
tiative of the King OF the Jungle.
These attributes once assimilated
and directed by the creative intelli-
aence of the conscious or objective
mind, render the possessing human
being an almost irresistible offend
er in contests with his fellow man.
The foregoing is the logic which
inspired former athletic phenome-
mons to take up the lion training.
The lions to be imported by Wen
dali will be fully grown and verile
but their teeth and claws will be
taken out. Thus the athletic stu
dents will be compelled to contest
superior strength only.
Several weeks probably will be
required before the two cats and
Mr., Bruin will be available, but it
is hoped they will be here for the
grand opening.
