BRAZIL LOOKING TO FUTURE
important Industries of the Country Are to Be Encouraged by the
 Government.

The secretary of agriculture of Bra. gil recently presented lengthy me- moria1 to the president of the republic explaining the necessity of encourag- ing the coal and steel industries, which has resulted in the publication of two decrees of the federal government.
 The. secretary's report states that until there are at least ten coal mines in active operation in the country the effect of this industry will not be felt in the conservation of the wood SUD- ply, which Is now being rapidly con- stunned to meet the needs of the rail- ways and of domestic industries. The steel industry is so largely dependent upon suitable fuel that, in the secre- tary's opinion, it should also receive the attention of the Brazilian govern ment. The director of the geological survey of the Brazilian government states that by process of washing metallurgical coke may be obtained from Brazilian coal, and that this is already being accomplished in the state of Santa Catharina.
 The secretary points out that the present lack of sufficient domestic coal of suitable quality should not interfere with the establishment of steel in- dustry, which could temporarily use wood, and that for more than 300 years Sweden was obliged to depend upon this kind of fuel. He also says thar in the United States some 400. O.OOO tons of pig iron are produced annually by the use of charcoal as fuel.-Commerce Reports.

BEST THEATRE TO-DAY.

Theer is little doubt that the popu- lar verdict on William s. Hart's splen- did new photoplay, "Shark Monroe" which is to be displayed at the Best Theatre today and Saturday. will ac- claim it one of the finest pictures in : which he has yet been seen. In this production MT. Hart discards the chaps of the frOntiersman and is seen as a typical skipper of sealing schooner on the Alaskan coast.
 Monroe is savage man whose rep utation for cruelty extends far and wide. He meets a beautiful young woman in strange circumstances one night and takes her and her dissipated brother to Alaska. He learns to love her with passionate fervor and when she goes to Balsam City and falls into the hands of notorious traficker in women, Monroe follows and saves her is one of the most impressive situa- tions ever disclosed in any motion pie ture.
 Monroe is the center of many high ly interesting scenes of this powerful story. Now he wins this girls love by his bravery, after he had slain the man who sought to dishonor her, is told in scenes that are vibrant With thrills and heart appeal. MT. Hart directed this photoplay under the SUD- ervision of MT. Ince, ande his support is highly capable. His leading woman is Katherine Macdonald, one of the most charming of screen actresses, Joe Singleton, Bertholde Sprotte, George McDaniel and others.

ORPHEO THEATRE SATURDAY.

Hcnafd Bennett'S New Edition Of Damaged Goods," produced by the American Film Co.,, and released through the Mutual Film corporation, which is to open at the Orpheo Sat urday as premier attraction has undoubted success in prospect if the reception given the original produc- tion of this astounding sociological drama is any guide.
 MT. Bennett succeeded in doing with this play what all the preachers in the United States had not succeeded in doing since the landing of the Pill grim Fathers-making young Amer ica look facts in the face.
 The story of Damaged Goods" is one that cannot be lodged. Every father in the land has told his sons about the dangers of dalliance along the primrose way, but the same story as told by MT. Bonnet in his New Edi- tiOn of Damaged Goods" is tremend- ously more convincing to the boys of America than the one they heard from fathers lips.

CARRY FOOD TO TRENCHES
Take Supplies to the Men in Most Exposed Positions.

Trench warfare certainly interferes with the fighters meals. After cap- turing the enemy's position in partic- ular, Is the fighter at loss to know how he will get his regular rations ; for no sooner does the enemy find himself dispossessed of his original trenches than he opens up with an in- tense barrage fire designed to prevent ammunition and food from reaching the new occupants.
 The French army believes 1t has solved the problem of carrying food to men in isolated trenches, in its lunch dogs, says the Scientific American. Carrying light lunches and coffee, and even cartridges for the men in the first line trenches when the combat is hot and protracted these splendid trained dogs are more certain to get through barrages than men. Each dog is equipped with sort of double bag, strapped tight over its body, and pro- vided with numerous pockets for food, coffee cans, ammunition and other sup. plies.
 It is at the military dog training grounds at Paris that dogs are pre- pared for this service. Not only are these four-legged courlers taught to avoid the enemy and beware of tricks, but also to crawl on their stomachs in order to escape flying bullets. Special masks are provided for these dogs when they must pass through pois- on gas area.

10 Be Piteked Only In the Morning

To ee Pitched Only In the Morning.
 Many years ago, when Connie Mack was the Milwaukee catcher and man. ager. the club opened the season with several sOre-arm veteran pitchers. There was one youngster with the club who did not complain of this trouble. so they sent him to the slab. Milwau- kee was beaten something like 16 to 4. The kid pitcher was downcast. 'The umpire didn't give me any the best of it," he said by way of an alibi.
 "No." replied Joe Cantillon, who had overheard the remark; neither did the opposing batters give you any the best of It."
 The kid walked off in a huff. Con. nie Mack turned to Cantlllon. "Ill say this for the boy." he said, "I've worked out with him every morning for the last two weeks, and he looked mighty good"
 Cantillon pulled schedule out of his pocket and glanced over 1t rapid. ly. "The next morning game Is on Decoration day. Connie" he remark. cd. "Save the kid pitcher for then"
