What indicates a possible shortage Of
coal in the city, If weather conditions
continue unfavorable to rail traffic, is
seen in the weekly report of stocks Of
coal in the hands OF the city dealers
AS result the city fuel commission
urges everyone to conserve fuel and
especially coal. Reports of dealers for
the week ending Saturday show that
the stocks on hand had shrunk S37 In
the week, and that the supply of coal
on hand was less than the amount sold
in the week, indicating approximately
weeks supply in the dealers bins
A somewhat larger supply of coke was
reported.
Dealers reported 1.430 tons Of BIZ
luminous coal on hand Saturday, COM
pared with 2127 tons the previous Sat-
urday. The stocks shrank TIT tons IN
the week. The stock of coke reported
was 1,7s0 tons, compared with 1900
the previous Saturday, q shrinkage OF
120 tons.
Not Much Received.
The effect Of the snow storm of
week ago Sunday and the day follow
ing in eastern Iowa and Illinois and
the tie-up Of traffic late last week, Is
seen in the small amount Of coal re-
ceived. The total for the week was
$50 tons. compared with GIG tons the
previous week, a decrease of 227 tons.
There were sold in the week 1,436 tons,
compared with 1898 tons the previous
week. OF coke there were produced
ninety tons, compared with 100 tons the
week before, and there We're sold 21o
tons, compared with 230 tons the week
before.
The cooperation of every user OF
coal in conserving fuel is asked by the
city fuel commission to prevent an ac-
tual shortage If the stocks of mer.
chants continue to decrease as they
have in the last two weeks, During
that time the supply Of coal ON hand
has decreased 1909 tons, and the sup
ply Of coke has fallen off $50 tons.
Householders are urged to close UP un-
used rooms, and shut the heat out OF
them. A little saving by a great many
may be the means Of preventing a
shortage that would be serious.

TRApSHOOTING.
Local Sportsman Gives Concise Descrip-
tiOn of the Fascinating Sport.

In response to request for a concise
description of ''clay bird" shooting,
local sportsman writes:
In general, trapshooting consists oil
shooting with n shotgun at targets
thrown from traps. The targets, or
pigeons, arc made of either river silt,
limestone or clay and pitch or tar, nodded
INTO a shape similar 10 that of saucer.
These are impelled by tho releasing OF
strong spring when the word pull
is called TO the trap boy.
"1he shooters, in squads, usually oi
five, take their places Ii or more yards
in the rear of the traps and shoot IN
rotation.
"Your skilled trapshooter is fellow
with steel nerves, quick and uncrrlng
judgment, and unfaltering action. In
the majority Of eases these positive,
manly qualities were as latent III the trap
shooter as they are in the average man,
until the devotcc of the trap and gun took
up this most fascinating of recreations'
Few sports are rs scientific as trap
shooting. The rapid calculation ot lead,
elevation, angle, &c, the nice decision
and instant action, quicken the eye and
hand. and develop qualities which make
for success in the affairs of life.
Work at the traps drives away BRAIN
fag. for the reason that 1t requires IN
tense concentration on a plcasurablo
pursuit. Thus, the brain worker finds
real relaxation in trapshootlng, with
out the physical exhaustion which IN
many games more than offsets the good
effects of the mental diversion.

LOSSES DOWN TO Minimum
Warfare Mortality Statistics Should
Give Comfort to Those With
Loved Ones at the Front.

Great as the danger and large as
the losses in the aggregate, the indi-
vidual soldier has plenty of chances
of coming out of the war unscathed,
or at least not badly injured.
Based on the mortality statistics of
the allied armies, soldiers chances
are as follows:
Twenty-nine chances of coming

FOrty-nine chances of recovering
from wounds to one chance Of dying
from them.
One chance in 800 of losing a limb.
