An NAL Amuck at Baseball
Gam. Clubbed. Cata-
pulated Then Shot
PARK GUARDS GUN
WOULDN'T FUNCTION

Running wild through the crowd at
tending a baseball game at Second and
dupont streets, a dog that either had a
ft or had gone mad created great ex-
citement yesterday afternoon. Fortu-
nately the canine did not bite anybody,
but il was killed with difflculty after
it had shown a strong desire to hang
on TO life.
The Brownson and Pusey & Jones
teams were playing when the dog
started on a rampage. Snarling, ii
dashed through the crowd. Men leaped
in the air as the dog approached to
escape its swapping jaws. Everybody
had the Jumps" for awhile. The field
had the appearance Of recruits going
through setting up exercises as men
and boys leaped to avoid the cavorting
canine.
Finally a man seized the animal by
the throat and held ii while Park Guard
Robert Mccullough drew his trusty re-
yolver and tried to sh0ot the beast.
But the revolver wouldn't explode.
Guard Mccullough tugged at the tris-
ger several times, but his weapon
either contained stage cartridges or was
out Of commission. The crowd cheered
him on with comments about his
wooden gun"
The park guard handed the gun" TO
another man, who tried in vain TO fire
it. Then the park guards club was
used TO try TO beat the life out Of the
luckless mongrel. To make sure that
it was dead the dogs body was thrown
against a telegraph pole.
Guard Mccullough got a shovel with
which to bury the dog, but to his sur
prise he found that the beast was not
dead, but had some fight left in him.
The animal gave every promise Of
rivaling the nine-lived cat, when a
man arrived with a gun and shot the
animal. Then the baseball game pro-
ceeded.

FRATERNITY BADGES
In HEAVY DEMAND

Manufacturers of college fraternity
badges are now in the midst Of their
busy season filling orders, resulting
from the commencement exercises to be
held next month. Their factories will
be kept working full force handling
this business until about June IS, when
the height Of the season will have
been passed.
In this, as in other branches of the
iewelry industry the big problem is to
obtain sufficient skilled labor adequate
ly to handle the orders received. During
the period Of the war the fraternity
badge manufacturers did comparatively
little business, but with the signing Of
the aTnistice and the subsequent dis
banding Of the school boys training
corps they received a rush OF accumu-
lated orders. With this business taken

ing together. Joshua 5. Litzenburg, a
prominent Grand Army veteran, side by
side. with his stalwart son in olive
drsb and overseas cap, returned this
spring from France.
The men OF the Spanish-Americdn
War were also cheered.
Although "Delaware's Own" must
walt for next May 10 take part In The
local Memorial Day parade, there were
many soldiers In khaki In line. With
the vigorous easy swing Of the Amer
lean lighting man, the young genera
tion strobe along, yisibly capable and
ready TO handle all agressors against
Old Glory.
The parade was reviewed at the
Posloffce by the chief marshal,
George NJ. Bailey, his aides and the po-
lice escort, headed by Chief OF Police
Black. When the marchers passed the
Soldiers and Sailors Monument, at
Delaware avenue and Van Buren sheet
a salute was fired by the Junior Me-
chanics' Guard.
An interesting feature OF the parade
was the number Of school children,
clad in summer clothes and carrying
American flags, entwined with flowers,
who marched behind the veterans in
the lead. A float, representing Amer

RECORDCOALFAMINE

Mine Output Far Below
Normal Ever Since Armis-
tice Was Signed
MANY ORDERS
NEEDED AT ONCE

CHICAGO, May 3i.--A warning that
America faces a possible coal shortage
more serious than that Of eighteen
months ago, was sounded today by a
special committee OF the National Coal
Association, whose membership pro-
duces approximately 70 per cent. of the
country's bituminous coal.
The committee, headed by r. s. Pea
body, of Chicago, pointed to the pro-
ductionY decrease Of S50,000,000 tons from
January TO May 10, as compared with
a year ago, declared there are grave
dangers Of a labor shortage, and urged
that consumers place their orders now
and thus set the idle mines in full swing
again.
Ever since the armistice was signed,
production Of bituminous coal has fallen
far below the tonnage necessary 10
maintain if the country's normal needs
are to be met. O1lcal returns TO the
United States Geological Survey show
that from January 10 May 10, the out
put of all the mines in the counry
dropped p per cent below production
during the corresponding period last
year, or approximately 50,000,OO0 tons.
The mines are now producing coal at
the rate Of 100000 tons a week. They
should be producing 100000 tons II
the people are TO have enough coaN
stocks accumulated during the fall
of last year have been almost depleted.
and within a few months everybody
will be trying TO place orders. It would
be a physical impossibility for the mines
TO produce sufficient coal in the short
time remaining before cold weather to
meet the demand"
