The manager. of the opera house has
gained special permission from the city
council to operate one picture show
each evening until further notice. The
show will start, at Y O'Clock, and the
lights will be turned out at 9 O'clock.
There is no power to be used in connec.

machine and very few lights. In fact
the entire house will remain dark for
most of the tirneall lights being out
during the time Of showing the pictures.
The order passed by the city council
asking all places of business to close at
o'clock would ma urally cover the
moving picture shows. but. upon con-
ferring with the council and a number
of the business men, the special privi-
,lege was granted the management. +

Fuel Situation Serious
Denison is not the only place that is
feeling the effects of the coal ST rike
Many cities and towns are in worse
straits THAI we are here. In many
places electric service has been d iscon.
tinued entirely, public schools ar ID the
churches closed and many families SUI
fering on account of the lack OF fuel.
Mr.. Patterson, local fuel admI aistrat-
or, informs, the Review that no families
in Denison are actually suffer irig from
lack of fuel. He informs US That the
appeal in he last issue of the Review
for small lots Of coal in the bins of con-
sumers has been needed by the people
of the com. nunity. Scores OF people
have offered to release anywhere from
500 pounds to ten tons and this is being
drawn on whenever necessa ry. Mr..
Patterson is still DESTROYS of securing
additional fuel and people who have
a good supply on hand are requested
to release as much as they possibly can
The churches of Denison are anxious
to cooperate and it may be possible the
protestant churches will, within a week,
hold union services and thus conserve
considerable coal. The Carnegie library
has been closed for the past two weeks.
Some wood is now making it's appear.
ance on the market, but not in quaint.
ties large enough to make any appre-
cable difference. Mr.. Patterson urges
people who have wood for sale to notify
him at once. .
A real community. spirit must prevail
in Denison until the present crisis is
passed. Only by cooperation on the
part Of every man, woman and child
will we be able to cope with the situa-
ton.

Father Nj. j. Farrelly
REV. HANSON DELIVERS SERMON
Solemn Requiem Mass Observed, Bish
Op Heelan, of Sioux City, Being
the Celebrant

The funeral of Rev. Father M. j
Farrelly was held at the st. Rose OF
Lima church on Friday morning at II
o'clock. 1t was probably the largest at
tended funeral ever held in Denison
hundreds of people coming from fal
and near to pay their last respects tc
the memory of this priest, friend and
peighbor, who for a third Of a century
has lived in our midst. Long before the
hour set for the funeral the church was
filed and scores Of people were turned
away. g.
4 Solemn requiem mass was observed
with Bishop Heelan, of Sioux City, the
celebrant, Father Sweeney, of Manson,
deacon; Father Welt, of Sioux City, sub
deacon, and Father Masterson, of Cher
okee, master of ceremonies. Father
Hanson, of Dunlap, delivered the SER
mon, in which he briefly told of the re-
Il1arkable record made by Father Far
reilly during his quarter of century OF
service in DenisOn. ,.,.r.f .,-Lf (, i-.S
E The sudden death of Father Farrelly
on last Wednesday cast a deep gloom
over the entire community, which was
not confined to the peopleof his church,
bit to the old friends and neighborS
who loved and admired him. Father
Farrelly was broad minded man who
did not contine his activities to his
church, but at all times was back of
every movement that was for the bene-
at or upbuilding of the community. His
service to the church was unceasing
and he lived to see the fruits of his
labor in the building of the present
place of worship and later the erection
Of the handsome and commodious pa
rochial school. It was through his eff
forts that parishes were established at
Charter Oak and Buck Grove. During
the war Father Farrelly took an active
interest in all war work and on tnumer-
GUS occasions spoke from a public plat
form in the interests of the various
drives for funds. In the death of Faith
er Farrelly ,Denison has lost a public
spirited citizen as well as a good friend
and neighbOr and his loss will long be
felt in the community. -

Glenn and Ray North. of Denison
attended the funeral of their cousin
William Maxwell, at LeMars Tuesday
afternoon. It will be remembered by
those who read the daily papers that

Mars for bootlegging and rObbing a
bank at Wostfield, shot their way to
freedom last Friday afternoon, shooting
the sheriff. Hugh MAXWELL and the SON
William, and making their escape. 1t
was while assisting the father and
mother in giving the prisoners their
evening meal on Friday that the SON.
William, was fatally injured. and he
died early Sunday morning. Wives OF
two of the prisoners visited their hus,
bands Friday afternoon and 1t Is
thought they gave the prisoners the
weapons with which the shooting was
done. The prisoner who is thought to
have shot the sheriff's son was named
Convey and he was a booze runner who
was captured by Sheriff Maxwell on
June 22d. In making the capture there
was q running gun fight and Miss Fern
Maxwell, a daughter Of the sheriff, shot
Convey and almost captured the outfit.
Convey was arrested and was identified
by the scalp wound inflicted by Miss
Maxwell. The sheriff is a relative Of
the Maxwells living in Crawford and
for that reason there was more or less
interest taken in the shooting by the
Crawford county residents.
William Maxwell died Sunday morn.
ing at the age of 81 years. He was one
of the first volunteers from ,LeMars.

and then went overseas where he spent
more than a year in the service Of his
country, and had just recently return
ed home. He visited Denison relatives
soon after enlisting and has many
friends in this locality who deeply
mourn his untimely death. It Is in,
deed hard blow to the fond parents
who are thus called upon to lay away
their only son, cut off in the very morn

the hearts of their many Crawford

On Monday evening a meeting was

business men gathering there to talk
over the situation with the city council
and to- arrive at some solution of the
problem confronting the city,. County
Fuel Administrator ]. H. Patterson was
present and briefly outlined the situation
and impressed upon everyone the urgent
need Of conserving every pound of fuel
possible. Mr.. Binkley, superintendent
Of the light plant, explained to the bus
mess men the load the plant has been
carrying and the amount of fuel neces-
sary to keep the plant in operation.
1t was generally agreed that the
pumping Of water should be continued
as long as possible for protection against
fire. but when it came to deciding the
hours That the plant would be kept in
operation there developed a. lively dis
cussion.. After the matter had been
discussed at some length, Sears Nc
Henry made a proposition requesting
the city council to operate the plant
from o'clock in the morning until 8
o'clock at night and that all places of
business be closed at 5 o'clock in the
afternoon, Saturdays included. This
resolution was unanimously adopted.

The Review wants to urge upon ev-
eryone in Denison the need of conserva.
ton at this time. This morning the
light plant had on hand about a fifteen
days supply of coal, running the plant
at the hours mentioned above. Con-
sumers of electric light and water can
stretch this supply to a great extent
by conserving in the use Of light and
water and thus tightening the load at
the plant. The following rules should

mo IMMEDIATE COAL RELIEF
From Every Section Of the Country
Comes Reports That Factories and
All Industries Are Crippled

Press reports today do not contain
any evidence that there will be any I'M
mediate relief in the fuel famine which
has been brought on by the strike OF
the coal miners. From every section
of the country comes reports that tac'
tories, light plants and schools nave
been closed down on account OF snort
age of fuel and people in some commun-
tiles are actually suffering for the lack
of fuel to keep their homes warm.
j. 1t had been expected that the miners
would return to work Monday after the
strike was declared off last Tuesday by
the head Of the union but miners nave
failed to report for work and snow a
disposition to remain away until their
demands are met by the operators.
A movement is now on foot by the
state officials to take over the mines IN
Iowa and operate them, either under re-
ownership or martial law.
Down at the national capital coal OPP
orators are having conference with
the miners union officials trying to ne
gotiate a wage scale satisfactory to
both. No Roadway however is being
made and the government threatens 10
step in and force matters. /,
Railroads of the country are hard
pressed for fuel and already many
trains have been taken off. 1t is even
intimated that a general embargo on
freight is being planned unless the con
dition is relieved Train service on the
Northwestern and Illinois Central is
still normal.
There is not a pound Of coal in the
bins of the local dealers in Denison and
the county fuel administrator has only
a limited amount for distribution. Sew.
eral cars of coal have been confiscated
by the fuel administrator but most OF
this has been turned over to the light
plant so that water might be pumped
for fire protection.
