BIG COW MYSTERIOUSLY
DISAPPEARS FROM VIEW

Woodstock, July 2e.-About dusk
Tuesday evening a Inc cow belonging
TO Arthur Steadman, Of Edinburg, and
pactured in the meadow near the mill
dam by the old electric light plant OF
that place was seen to wade into the
stream above the dam. which was
swollen by the recent high rains up
the country In the Orkney neighbor-
hood. Since then the COW had been
"out of sight" literally. although min
ute search had beer made. Whether
she was drowned and washed down
stream or whether she stuck in the
mud in the bottom OF the dam nc one
knew. About $3.50 o'clock Wednesday
afternoon. the tinkle OF her bell was
heard. She had washed over the dam
and had gotten back under tho board
ing OF the dam. While the water made
a complete curtain. the COW was dis
covered standing up in a cornered po-
sition and as live as ever. The water
was drawn OFF the dam and her lady
ship led out to solid ground a damp
and none the wiser COW.

LARGE ATTENDANCE
At WILLIAM AND MARY

Especial to The Richmond virginian.)
Williamsburg. Va, July 29.-The
college of William and Mary expects
to open its doors on September 18th
with increased attendance. A large
number of new students have already
indicated their intention of entering
the institution while practically the
entire body of old students will return.
The college was opened to women
by an act of the general assembly
of 1918. Last session it had twenty
three young women students. The
dormitery for women will accommo-
date forty-si2 students. Already two
thirds of the rooms have been en-
gagged and it is fully expected that
there will be more applications than
rooms available.
The chair of mathematics has just
been filed by the appointment of
Professor G. l.. c. Williams. He is
an A. b. of Haverford college. After
graduation he secured by competitive
examination a Rhodes scholarship in
Oxford university. England. He spent
three years at oxford and i. France,
graduating with the degree of B. A.
and M. A. from oxford. Upon his
return to America he pursued gradu-
ate work at the Chicago university.
where his dissertation for his Phi d.
degree has just been accepted. For
Ave years he was a professor in
Miami university in Ohio and for one
year has been connected with the
Penn State college of PENNSYLVANIA,
from which institution he resigns to
come to the college of William and
Mary. Professor Williams is highly
commended as a thorough scholar
n an excellent teacher.
Great stress Is being placed at the
college upon the care of the students.
Many repairs are being made. The
boarding department Is in the hands
of a trained dietitian.
The college authorities assert that
emphasis will be placed on the physi-
cal development of the students. A
department of physical education has
been added. and Captain James G..
Driver has been made director. Cap
tain Driver is an alumnus Of the in
stitution, and during his last year al
college he made in athletics a record
unexcelled by any student ever at
tending the institution being captain
OF. the foo ball. baseball. and baske,
ball teams, After tina he attended
the University of Virginia and made
all the teams at that institution. For
two years he was director of physical
education at the University OF South
Carolina, where he was very success
full in his work. For the past year
he has been in the army in charge OF
physical education in the camps, and
at present he is physical education Of
ficer at Camp Custer, Michigan. He
Is to be discharged from the army
August 18th. He will introduce mass
athletics at the college; and an eff
fort will he made to have every stu
dent take some physical work. Indi-
cations are that foot ball and baseball
teams will be unusually strong for
the coming year.
President J. A. c. Chandler, who
was elected last March, to succeed DR..
Lyon G. Tyler, the retiring president,
has taken up the administration of af.
fairs. He feels greatly encouraged
over the prospects OF the college.

|SAY COAL FAMINE
IS SURELY IMPENDING

Washington. D. c.. July 2S.-To
test the correctness OF the various
statements made relative to the dan
ger OF a national coal famine his
winter The American Mining Con-
gress. has analysed the situation and
has issued the following appeal to it's
membership for cooperation with the
coal producers in urging quick de-
velopnent of the industrial fuel mar
ket.
"A large percentage of Industrial
fuel users are treating lightly the
warnings of the National Coal asso-
citation that industrial consumers of
power coal are facing a shortage in
supply when the peak OF the coal
movement arrives. For the guidance
OF our members we wish to place the
following analysis before them and
to urge that every n cooperate to
urge quick development for early de-
livery of all needed fuel. Possibly
some statements made in the cam
paign to build the market have been
over-drawn, but a consideration of
the combined elements controlling the
situation leads to the conclusion that
the most complete cooperation be-
tween buyers, railroads and pro-
ducer will be necessary to meet
market requirements. We submit the
following facts upon which the con
