ing so for 20 minutes or even half an
hour, after which he falls into a deep
sleep. Afterward he remembers moth
ing whatever about what has happened
to him. The result of this sobbing
sickness and these attacks is, of
course, still further to weaken a peo-
pie already very greatly, %enfeebled.
Another effect of the prevailing
nervousness is naturally to make peo-
pie far more irritable than usual; and
the physical weakness combined with
the overwrought State of their nerves
also makes them disinclined for effort
or exertion. Religion, it is significant,
seems to have lost all influence over
them. Not only have adults become
careless and Indifferent with regard to
morality, as is proved by the grave in
creases of certain diseases, with which
the medical authorities no longer know
how to cope, but the condition of the
children in the cities and towns, par
ticularly of Austria, is distressing be-
yond words. For example, the number
of offenses against the law committed
by children and young persons under
eighteen in Vienna alone was, in 1913,
1885, but in 1917, 14,029-a nearly 70

lNDIANA'S FIRST COAL SHAFT
Old Mine Near Evansville Disappears

Beauty Spot.

After more than fifty years the old
Ingle coal mine has disappeared from
the Ohio river front between Evans.

mine to be opened in Indiana and it
was owned and operated by an Eng
fish syndicate, the Indianapolis News
states.
When the shaft was sunk it wa
called the Bodiam mine and was man.
aged by John Wymond, who came to
Evansville from England for that
purpose. The mine had been CON-
pletely worked out when it was aban-
doned. The workings had drifted un-
der the Ohio river to the Kentucky
shore.
The English syndicate sold the mine
to John Ingle, ST., and it remained in
his family many years. The last own
er was James H. Moore, owner of the
Crescent coal mine in Evansville.
The clearing away of the tipple
gives an unobstructed view of the
river for the new West Side junior
high school. The hill has now be.

BY JULIAN GRANDE.
On the New York Times>

Berne.-During the war / haze been
several times in England, France and
Italy, but since the armistice / have
been obliged to remain here, in the
heart Of Europe. Consequently I can
not say how the war seems to have af-
fected the people either In my own
country or In those of our allies or in
the United States. If, however, l were
asked how it has affected people on
the continent generally, / should say
that it has made them more nervous,
and some of them even nervous
wrecks.
Perhaps nowhere was this more no.
ticeable than at the meetings of the In
ternational Socialist Labor congress,
attended by delegates from 81 coun-
tries. l have spoken to delegates from
most Of these lands, and there was not
q single n who did not show signs of
extreme nervousness. Either he was
constantly clasping and ~unclasping his
fingers, or he was f1dgeting in his
chair. or constantly blinking his eyes.
Moreover, If l asked one or other to
jot down something for me on paper, /
noticed that his hand positively trem-
bled as he wrote; and when a delegate
addressed the congress he usually ex-
hibited still more marked signs of
OverStrained nerves. Several delegates
70 whom l spoke volunteered the in
formation that they slept very badly at
night, and this testimony was quite
Independent, for not one knew what
the others had been saying to me. To
some I suggested that perhaps they
were doing too much mental work.
"NO," was the reply, 'even the 1aboring
classes in u country are not sleeping
well just now"
Sobbing Sickness.
In Austria, for instance, the people
are suffering from what may be called
a sobbing sickness, which is the result
primarily Of nervousness. Both men
and women suddenly begin to sob, and
very often continue sobbing even in
their sleep. Some doctors seem to
think this malady is due to unwhole-
some food, which causes stomach dila-
ton; others attribute it to nervous.
ness alone. In some cases this nerv-
BUSINESS has become so acute that peo-
pie have attacks in the night not I'M
like an epileptic fit. The sufferer be-
gins by feeling a choking sensation,
then cries out, and finally becomes
quite unconscious, very often remain

per cent Increase. And now II Is scarce
ly possible to keep count Of the num-
Der Of thefts and other misdemeanors
Of which eve young children are
guilty.
Again, the children often cannot be
made TO attend school. and the youths
cannot be induced TO do any work. The
children play truant for days and
weeks together, and the youths leave
their work for any trivial reason or
none.
Children and young people are con-
stantly quarreling until they come to
blows; they have no respect for their
teachers, parents or elders; they insult
and abuse older persons and even spit
at them sometimes and threaten them
with violence. Thievine. however, Is
the commonest offense.
Few Children Survive.
In Poland nervousness and nervous
prostration have become SC appalling
that very few mothers give birth to
children capable of surviving. Thus,
at the maternity hospital of Lemberg
in two months only one infant sur
vived out of 81 born and people are
daily perishing from hunger. This In
teresting old city with its cathedrals
and universities has now become for
lorn and desolate. and what is rue of
it is true of the rest of Poland and
Austria.
To add to the scourges of nervous
ess and sobbing sickness, infantile
scurvy, caused by bad milk, is greatly
increasing among young children in
Austria.

Stranded Men a Problem.
1.-THE appeal of the Chamber of Com
merce of the United States to its con-
stituent commercial organizations to
get behind the bureaus for returning
soldiers and Sailors" said the an
1ouncement, twill very considerably
facilitate their work. The chambers
of commerce in many towns and cities
already are contributing to the main
tenance of employment service offices
and soldiers bureaus, The greatest
~
effect Of the action by the national
commerce chamber is expected to be
in the number of Immediately avail
able employment openings which en-
ployers will register with the federal
employment offices and soldiers bu-
reauS.
"One of the chief problems incident
20 unemployment of the soldier is the
stranded men in the cities. Employ
ment for the majority of these men
can be secured in their home towns,
but through lack of funds they are
unable to avail themselves Of 1t. Har-
ry A. Wheeler, president of the Cham
Der Of Commerce of the United
States, has issued an appeal to each
member Of the national chamber urg-
ing that they get in touch with nom
resident soldiers seeking employment
in their town; find out where he be-
longs; communicate with the cham
her of commerce in his home city,
and on receiving assurance that 1t will
take ear of him, provide funds for
