HUNS FOUND TO HAVE
STOLEN MACHINERY OF
MONS-CHARLEROI MINES

London, Dec. l0.-Information has
been received in official circles in
London concerning the mines in the
Mons-Charleroi coal fields which
region has been cleared OF the enc
my. The Germans had made system
attic preparations for the destruc-
tion of the mines on an extensive
scale. At many OF the pits they had
placed in position heavy charges Of
explosives, all ready for 4 great up
heaval.
But at the last moment, perhaps
through fear of reprisals, they drew
the charges and abstained from
blowing up the mines. Many depre-
dations, however, were committed,
such as the removal of essential
parts of engines, pumps and other
gear, and because of this the extrac-
ton of coal will be delayed greatly.

Get something newt" the editor
with voice of venom, cried.
The scribbler tried his luck again, bu,
sadly-only tried
He'd have thought and jot it down
and then he'd read it GER
And find that someone said the same
in Sixteen-thirty-four.
He'd seize what seemed to him a gem
but when it was rehearsed,
Twas found to be of former DAYS
Ben Franklin said it first!
The scribbler then philosophical, as
scribblers often do,
About the sad futility of seeing some
thing new:
The first man was original, some cen.
turtles ago,
And others who would be the same,
just copy him, you know.
This fad of being different is empty,
through and through,
For someone years and years ago,
was different, same as you!
