the Nationwide strike Of bituminous
coal miners were couple,. to-day

DENVER BOYs, NEW SPORT

A number of large auto tires roll
ing blitnely down Cheesman Park hill
fic blockade at Tenth and Franklin
streets several afternoons last week,
Passing pedestrians and autoists
stood in open-mouthed amazement,
looking at what appeared to be auto
tires endowed with life, some rolling
with perfect balance, others reeling
drunkenly from side to side and at
the end of the hill landing in a heap.
Upon closer observation the tires
were fount to be filled with small boys
curled snugly in the inside of the rim
and hugely enjoying the consterna-
ton of the passerby
Tire racing is the latest fad in the
sport realm of the small boy, and the
lad whose father owns an automo-
most popular member of his group.
The tires are hauled to the top of the
hill, and, in order to make the race
successful, twice the number of bows
as there are tires are required. When
the contestants are properly curled
in the tires, with feet and hands firm
ly braced, the boys behind the tires
called the starters, give them a push
and away they go, spinning down the
two blocks of unbroken hill, ending
at Tenth and Franklin.
The object IL to keep a perfect hal
ance and arrive at the finish without
a spill. but this is exceedingly diff
cult, due to the dizzy feeling caused
by the spinning. Often there is a
great crash and all of the tires and
occupants fall in a heap upon each
other. After untangling themselves
and gaining their equilibrium the
boys crawl back into the tires and
resume the race. After several after
Moons of experience the dizziness Is
and the tires proceed down
the hill in fairly orderly fashion.
This promises to be as popular as
baseball and unless fond parents find
some other and more profitable means

parks of Denver soon probably will

Maryland Collides
With Carmania

Boston, Dec. 11.-Messages inter-
cepted at the naval radio station here
last night told of collision between
the British steamers Carmania and
Maryland about 500 miles east of
Halifax. The Carmania was slightly
damaged. The messages did not in
dicate the extent of the damage to
the Maryland.
The position in which the collision
occurred was given as latitude 1910
north, longitude 53.17 west.
The Carmania is bound from Liv-
erpool for New York and the Mary
land is believed to be bound from
Baltimore for London. One of the
messages from the Carmania, declin-
ing a proffer of aid from another
steamer, said that assistance was not
needed, as the damage sustained did
not affect the ships safety. Another
message said that the Carmania was
proceeding all right"

LIMIT IMMIGRATION NOW

The immigration question
should be taken up and consider
ed by Congress at once.
We have had but little imml
grafton during the four years OF
war. Now with conditions alter
ed and peace at hand it is not
unreasonable to suppose that af-
ter few months immigration
might begin to flow into it's old
channels.
Nearly four millions Of our
own men are in process of receiv-
ing honorable discharge from the
army and navy, and will have to
be reabsorbed into the civilian
life of tn country. Just how
the readJustment of business
may progress or how much I'M
employment there may necessar-
lily be no one yet can tell.
We may not at once have Jobs
Tor all cur own men, They have
been orr defense and in turn are
entitled to our protection.
y restriction of general immi-
grafton for some time to come
can harm no one, and may be of
the greatest value to our young
men. As soon as reconstruction
has progressed far enough so
that conditions can be foreseen,
if will be an easy matter to let
down the bars.
The time to attend to this linn
Ting of immigration is the pres
chr. Just now no shipping can
be spared for the use of immi-
cr6nts, and before this condition
ends proper legislation should be
provided.
Our country has always been
the refuge Of all nations. 1t will
be so more truly again after a
temporary restriction to meet
conditions.

THE NATIONAL GAME IS
BACK.

The restrictions on baseball
have now been removed, to the
pleasure of a very large proper
tion of our people.
The interest which is taken in
professional baseball indicates
the nation s healthful apprecia-
ton of clean sport. Baseball is
the delight of American boys
from the time they can
hold a bat. During the season
every vacant lot in our cities
bears the roughly worn baseball
diamond, and on Sundays and
holidays is occupied by a party
of muscular young fellows, gain
ing both health and recreation
from the fresh air and exercise.
Not only does baseball train
the body, but the mind as well.
1t requires quickness of eye and
hand and Immediate swift judg-
ment. Every young fellow at a
base must not only be prepared
to catch a ball coming in his dir
ection; he knows that the game,
after he has caught the ball, may
be made or married by his instant
disposition of it, so he must know
without a seconds hesitation
what to do with it. No doubt
many of our fine young marines
at Chateau Thierry or dough
boys in the Argonne forest were
trained in vigor and quickness
and resourcefulness by the nat
ional game.
That training is just as help
full toward the pursuits of peace
The business man needs both vi.
talitv and the power of instant
decision.
Long live baseball! When yor
see a lot of kids busy after school
hours with a bat and ball, dom
find fault with their shouting!
Remember that you are looking
upon American citizens in the
process of training and cast
kindly glance upon them.

Since the. Germans have no
one else to fight they seem to
revel in fighting among them
selves. Let us hope that they
get enough of this poor idea of
theirs that a nation is not in the
limelight or popular unless it has
constantly before its face the
sword Of hatred The only ques-
ton that seems reasonable in the
one that asks why they did not
start private war in the first
place and leave the rest of the
world out of it. 1t would have
been far better for all nations

Of Germany-if she has such a
