When Rodin modelled the bust Of M.
Clemenceau, which now stands among
those Of other great Frenchmen in the
senate chamber, his subject was not
at all pleased with it. The big skull,
projecting cheek bones, wrinkled eyes
and dropping mustache were certainly
not fiattering. Scrutinizing it, the
"Tiger" knit his brows and growled:
"Who is this Mongol?"
There are even those who say that
was why NJ. Clemenceau did not favor

COAL OUTPUT WILL
 NOT BE NORMAL
Resumption of Work Will Be Extcn- sive, But Not Up to Old-time
 Form.

Chicago, Nov. 12.-Resumption of work in the country's bituminous coal mines today was expected to be ex- tenslVe, but not on a scale that would permit anything like normal produce ton, according to statements of United Mine Workers leaders and coal mine operators. In some sections the miners were expected to dispute the authority of the order issued yester- day by John l.. Lewis, acting presi- dent of the organization, recalling the strike order in keeping with the di- rection of a federal court order. The stat atement of Duncan Mcdonald, presi- dent of the Illinois Federation of La bor, that If the position of the government is to be taken as a prec- edent there is no such thing as free dom of contract and the entire issue might as we'll be fought now" also was interpreted as being the sentiment of portion of the approximately 425, ,00O men who went on strike near ly two weeks ago.
 The situation in the Illinois fields was complica ted further by the pos sibility of insurgents who caused trouble last summer renewing their activities according to the union men. In Kansas, where 10000 men normal ly are employed unrest was said to prevail and it was doubtful if that state, already feeling a fuel shortage, would see a very considerable resump- tOn of production.
 That many of the miners would re- turn to work was agreed notably in the Ala bama, Texas Ohio and Penn sylvania coal areas The situation was also doubtful in Iowa, Maryland, West Virginia. Oklahoma and Arkan- SaS

Matter Had Been Up Before But
 Dropped for Want of Funds TOWN MAY PAY A PART
Proposed Road Would Run iron, COrbin Avenue to PIainyjlIe Town
 Line and Town May Continue It to
 East Street-Meade Quits Factory.

\ hearing was given last evening in New Britain by the board of public works on the proposed new public highway from Corbin avenue to the tPiainvilIe town line. There is but one entrance leading from this town to New Britain at the present time It is known here as New Britain avenue and in New Britain it is called the PIainville road. The proposed new highway would open up another en- .trance to the neigh boring city.
 Residents of the section through whichf the highway would be cut were in favor of the proposition, as were other parties interested, especially those who are developing land for building lots. The layout submitted last evening called for trolley tracks in the center of the road for only part of the distance. The contention was raised that the tracks should be in the center of the road all of the way on account of the danger from having tracks on one side. The latter arrangemen would allow sidewalks only on<t one side of the street and residents on the sother side would have Tto- cross. the tracks. It was explained that man ufacturers would insist upon sidewalks for, the safety of their en1- ployes. As a result of the opposition based upon these grounds, the ma tier was tabled and will be taken up again when a new layout is ready

NEW DISTRICT NURSE.
Miss Mary Mccarthy to Take Up Work
of Miss Pitkin

BarTe's district nurse, Miss Gwend0-

years and four months Of very com
mendsble service in that capacity. Miss
Pitkin's resignation, presented to the
civic department Of the Barre Woman's
club, takes effect Dec 20, so that she
may accept another position in Barre.
The Woman's club voted at recent
meeting to secure, If possible, another
capable nurse and feel confident they
have selected such in Miss Mary Nc

had experience in this work while in
training at teh Heaton hospital IN

uaetd recently, and she has successfully
passed the state examinations qualify.
ing her as registered nurse. Miss Nc
Carthy began to acquant herself with
the duties this morning with Miss
Pitkin
The inception of this work was made
by Miss Pitkin shortly after her grad
uaton at the Barre City hospital. In
the first year she visited S1l patients,
and of this number 70 were attended
without charge. The second year shows
a decided increase in the work. ! 1874

riod. OF that number PIG received the
attention at the expense of the civic de-
partment. The total number of persons
upon whom visits were made for treat
ment of some nature were zoos. This
report submitted by Miss Pitkins does
not include her last months work
The Woman's club feels that there is
a misunderstanding by many as TO this
work. If q person is i'll or needs, in
some way, the assistance OF a nurse but
still is unable to pay for the treatment
the district nurse attends the person
without charge On the other hand
should any person desire the attendance
of the district nurse, say for an hour a
day or less, the same may be had by
paying the regular time rates, thereby
receiving the treatment and care of an
experienced nurse and eliminating the
necessity of procuring nurse for a
whole day or week Many have in the
past been loath to secure the services
of the district nurse. thinking that the
work was entirely charitable and were
unwilling to be assisted by any ehari-
table institution.
