COUNTY MORE THAN
half Way TO QUOTA
Only Small Purchases Of Bonds Are
Reported BY Local Banks To-day
Much Work To Be Done
Tomorrow.

While approximately $4,000 worth
of bonds were sold last night at the
Trophy train these cannot be actually
counted by the Mason county commit
tee until the pledges are signed or the
money has been placed in the banks,
for this reason the whole $4,000 has
not yet been counted in the county's
total.
Local banks today report no very
large subscriptions. All of the banks
report, however that during the day
they have sold quite number of the
small bonds and while the total for
the day had not been figured at press
time, the committee is certain that the
county has reached the 100000 mark
just one half of the county's goal.
1t is expected that tomorrow will
be big day in this county and that
at the close of business Monday the
committee will have a very large sum
to report for the two days work.

ARRANGING FOR UNION
TEACHER TRAINING CLASS
Interesting Meeting OF Sunday School
Teachers Held Last Night at
Christian Church to Plan
For Union Class.

For some time the need of a Union
Teachers Training Glass for the Sun
day School teachers of this city has
been felt and despite the fact that the
War Trophy Train attracted many,
there was very good attendance at
the meeting held last night for the
purpose of creating interest in the or
ganization of such class,
After discussing the matter thor
oughly the matter of the course of
study, etc, was left to an Executive
committee composed of the pastors of
the city who will meet sometime in
the near future .
Another mass meeting will be held
next week, probably on Friday night
when some definite step will be taken
toward organizing the class.

HUNDREDS MAY
Be KILLED IN 7.
N. T. EXPLOSION
Only 1Ol Of 1000 Employees Accounted
For In Great New Jersey Shell
Loading Plant.

Perth Amboy, N. j., October 5 -
Nineteen hundred persons may be
dead in the T. A. Gillespie shell load
ing plant explosion at Morgan, N. ].
With the flames still raging at 10
o'clock, only 1O1 of the 1000 en-
ployes at work when the first explo-
sion occurred have been accounted
for.
Continued conclusions, which
shook Perth Amboy like earthquake
shocks, have made any search of the
ruins for bodies impossible, and fire.
men are blasting nearby buildings in
the hope of checking the spread of the
flames.
Telephone communication with
Morgan was suspended by the repeat
ed conclusions and this situation
made obtaining of adequate details al
most impossible. Military guards we're
thrown around the plant and all news
papermen were barred from the vi
cinity of the explosion.
The company's officials were en-
gagged this forenoon in trying almost
futilely amid the confusion to deter
mine the whereabouts of the en-
ployes. No examination of the ruins
has been made. Here and there a
body was drawn out. The injured
were being cared for in public build
ings and at private homes and scores
of those who were more seriously
hurt were being hurried to hospitals
at Elizabeth, Railway and other towns.
With big explosions still taking
place at 10 a. m, shaking surround
ing towns, Vice President Yates of
the Gillespie company gave out the
following statement: I'VE can not
see how it can last much long
er. The large magazines of T. N. T.
are buried in a bank of the Cheese
quake creek and we feel are safe"

COIN DROPPED
BEHIND MANTLE
YEARS ago FOUND
Half Dollar Dropped Behind Mantle
by Mr.. Charles ID. Pearce When
He Was But Lad Is Returned
to Him By c. & o.
Ticket Agent.

About fifteen years ago the late Mr..
Charles Pearce, whose home in the
West end for years has been used by
the c. & o. railroad company as a de-
pot, happened to be in the station
waiting for a train when he called Mr..
Mace Humphreys, ticket agent and
telegraph operator, and told him that
he remembered distinctly that when
his son, Mr.. Charles d. Pearce, was
but a small lad he dropped a half
dollar behind the large mantle in one
of the waiting rooms. He showed Mr..
Humphreys the, mantle behind which
the coin had been dropped by his son
and told the agent that if he happened
to be about when the old house was
torn down to look there for the coin.
The old Pearce home is now being
torn down to make way for the new
c. & o. station and yesterday the old
mantle behind which the coin was
said to be have been dropped, was
torn out. Mr.. Humphreys was there
when the workmen removed the large
mantle and there in splendid state
of preservation he found the half dol
lar. The coin was made in the year
1856 but looked almost new.
1t happened that Mr. Charles D.
Pearce, who is now president of the
Louisville Ice Company, is in the city
! today and Mr.. Humphreys has given
to him the coin which as a lad he
dropped behind the massive mantle.
Mr.. Pearce's father fifteen years or
more ago remembered distinctly of
| having given his son the half dollar
and of the boy playing about the large
fire place, having dropped the coin
| into a crack from which it could not
be recovered unless the mantle was
torn down.
1t is needless to say that Mr.. Pearce
prizes the coin highly and he will car
ry it as a memento OF his childhood
days in Maysville.

Cochran this morning issued the fol-
lowing bulletin
The following are the regulations
now in force, governing the purchase
of substitutes with wheat -four:
/. Substitutes must be sold concur
rently with the sale of flour to con-
sumers; also to public eating places,
clubs and institutions, whether hold
ing bakers license or not.
2. Last sentence baking regulation
115 that no regulation requires bak-
ers to purchase substitutes from the
same source and at same time THAI
they buy wheat -four, does not apply
in the case of public eating places, ho-
tells, etc., though holding bakers Ii
cense. These must buy substitutes at
same place and time as wheat flour.
8. Licensed bakers and dealers, in
cluding non-licensed retailers. may
buy -four and substitutes separate and
from different sources, if desired.
4. The old certificates of retailers
that they had purchased substitutes
elsewhere, have been discontinued.
S. The only flour certificate to be
used this year is that for the use in
purchase of flour against homegrown
substitute These certificates will be
furnished from the Food Administra-
ton, and are known as a cornmeal
certificate, permitting the grower of
corn to have his own meal ground as
his flour substitute.
This last certificate has practically
been forced upon the Administration
in Kentucky by the great quantity Of
requests from farmers in the State.
The Administration had hoped to
avoid it, and expected to do so, as 1t
seemed that even those who grew corn
would be willing to purchase with
their -four the small amount of sub
stitutes required, and thereby elimi-
udlt llO ullllSultSi buI liiS phN
was so strong from other states that
it has been determined to issue this
certificate in favor of the man who
raises his own corn.
Corn Starch
Corn starch actually purchased by
dealers on or before September 10th
may be sold to bakers and used by
bakers as a substitute in making
bread.
Corn starch purchased by dealers
since September 10th can not be sold
and used as a wheat flour substitute
either by bakers or by dealers.
One of the particular points for
which the Auditors will examine the
wholesalers will be to. see whether the
above rule is complied with.

London, October Six great bat
ties are now in progress from Fland-
ers to the Meuse, and the Germans are
reeling under blow after blow in posi-
tions on the Hindenburg and subsid
iary lines which they thought impreg-
nable. The removal of heavy guns
by the Germans gives force to the pre-
diction that they intend abandoning
the Flanders coast, which has been
under a heavy bombardment from AL
lied guns for the last three days. Be-
tween Armentieres and Lens the Ger
six miles Allied forces are just six
miles from Lille. Prisoners state that
the Germans are making preparations
to evacuate the entire dune country
along the Belgian coast. The coun-
try behind the German lines is ablaze
everywhere.
No fresh German reserves have
been observed anywhere. There are
evidences of disorganization, both
among the German infantry and ar
tillery, and there are reports of riots
among some German units, in which
even officers participated.
The piercing of the Beaurevoir line
by the British is a serious blow to the
Germans. Prisoners say that a new
line is being constructed at Valen-
ciennes, and that they had orders to
hold on to the last moment to give
time to prepare back of it.
