Kraft is in TT Worth where he is

to the city of "Old Miz2o" and
straightway shook himself free and
headed for the scenes OF many of his

Lou intimates that he would like

If Promoter Adolph Karpinsky will

get him an opponent who can really
fight, there's chance OF drawing
a big house here. Kraft specifies
that he would particularly like toI

Court Statement
Inspiration to Muse

Judge Albert A. Anderson's reference
to the fact that vermouth and cocktails
were used in ancient times has moved
some unknown follower OF the lyric muse
to burst forth into verse.
Signing himself Bar Lacorn,' be
communicated with Judge Anderson in
this wise:
High out Of sight on shelf in a
closet dim
Stand bottles labeled Bourbon" and
DRY Gordon Gin
Queer, strange emblems OF ancient times,
whate'er they be
And other mystical emblems you too
will see
On some of them: Bottled IN bond

Cryptic words known only to the wise. I
am told.
May the erudite Judge of our federal

Interpret these ernblems found on gallon

And were they first craven In cuniform
In old Babylon on tablets Of clay,
Or later by the Trojans ere their city's

Or by Grecians, or Romans or Wilson p
that's all.

SEVERAL MINES
BEING CONSIDERED.
Several mines, the names of which are
not made public. are being considered by
the board.
Two hundred coal cars will be neces-
sary to transport the coal from the mines
to the various institutions, experts says
More than 100000 will be expended, II
is estimated, in transporting the coal
from the mine to it's destination.
Former difficulties in obtaining coal
Notwithstanding the state contracts, has
tened the decision of the committee.
None of the Institutions has been able
to lay aside a reserve supply of coal, and
prospects for next winter, under the for
mer system of obtaining coal, are dis
couraging, the board said.
From So to $3.50 a ton is being paid
for coal on the open market.
1t is estimated coal may be supplied
to institutions at the rate Of approx
mately So ton under state ownership OF
the mines.
In two years, under such a system, IT
is believed the mines would pay for them
selves.

STATE MAY BUY
MINE FOR ITSELF
HOOsier Movement on to As
sure Own Coal Supply

Indiana may own and operate its own
coal mines.
Action may be taken by the Legislature
in the proposed special session to buy or
lease coal mine and coal cars to insure
an adequate supply Of coal for state in
stltutions.
Recommendations were made yesterday
! by the state purchasing board to Gov.
Goodrich, who Endorsed the resolution.
Charles A. McGonagle, superintendent
of the Indiana Boys school, presented
the resolution to the board.
1t was pointed out that there is not
only a serious shortage Of coal, but that
mine owners, who were asked to submit
bids for supplying coal to the state in
stItutions as a whole, or to any one in
stitution, did not respond because they
know they are able to sell all the coal
that can be mined to consumers at top
market prices, say board members.
Only two bids for supplying one In
stitution we're received by the board.
NO BIDS IN
FOR ALL OF THEM.
No bids for supplying the entire group
Of state institutions were submitted by
mine owners.
Because the purchase of the coal mine
and necessary operating and transporta-
ton equipment will entail an expense
Of several thousand dollars an appropria-
tion must be made by the Legislature.
The states coal contracts expire on
June 30.
Approximately 100000 tons OF coal will
be used by the state during the year.
Following are the names OF the mem
bers OF the board who adopted the reso-
luton:

ent of the Eastern Hospital Sor the IN
