Peasant Artist Darde
Felt DUN Way to Fame -;
(By a associated PreSS)

PARIS, July 15.-Paul Adolphe
Darde awarded the envied Paris Sa-
Ion national prize for his marbles
"Faun" and Eternal Suffering" is
greeted by critics as GENIUS in the
real sense of that abused word.
Darde, in the simple telling of his
career, stands out among artists. He
was a shepherd in the region of Lo-
deve Son of a small farmer, he
watched a flock or worked the ground
until he was 20. He fought in the
war and today famous, he is only 81.
The big, powerful, blond-bearded
peasant, began drawing, he says, when
he was eight but felt his own way
until he took a drawing course in the
Lodeve high school and later studied
at Montpelier. Through the counsel
of his two art teachers he came to
Paris. He spent five weeks here in
the government art institute and
worked three days in Robins studio.
With that slim grip of the classic
school and the modernity of Rodin,
Darde began the working in marble
and metal that made experience his
teacher
The "Faun' Is a massive, vigorous
conception, sneering, cynical and SEN
sual Eternal Suffering" represents
a woman's head, snake-entwined, with
face up turned, in anguish and almost
distored as if with physical pain.
Darde works directly in marble
without a wax or plaster model.

UNBELIEVABLE! COAL
PRICES May Be Low

NEW YORK. July ia reduction
of the price of bituminous coal was
predicted here today by members of
the subcommittee of railroad officials
and coal operators meeting here to
complete details of 4 plan to relieve
the coal shortage in New York City,
New England and the northwest.
BY a scientific distribution Of cars,
the committee hopes to provide a
steady stream of coal to the affected
districts. Under this plan the COM
mittee members believe the coal spec
ulators will find it impossible to exact
the high prices that the acute shortage
has made possible.
The car question alone is the Stun
bling block. it was said; the coal op-
orators having assured the railroad
representatives that enough coal can
be mined to supply all orders. The
shortage is estimated at $4,000 open
top cars. only fraction of which, 1t
is said. are now being built.

Students Starue in Central
Empire, Friends Board Says;
Is Feeding Many of Them

Pitiful conditions are reported ex.
listing among the students in German
and Austrian cities by the American
Friends service committee. Whether
to buy bread or books is the problem
now lying before thousands of stu
dents in the higher schools and uni
versities Of Germany and Austria.
Many Of them are forced to give up
all hopes of study in order to secure
bare living.
In Vienna the Quaker mission is
providing daily breakfast for 100
students, consisting of cocoa and
bread. A charge Of one-third of (;
cent is made for this. The work is
being rapidly expanded.
It Is planned during the coming year
to supervise adult and student relief
in Germany besides having exclusive
charge of the great child-feeding op-
erations. The American Friends serv-
ice committee will handle the stu
dents relief through the Hoover food
draft plan, by which money from in
terested contributors in America will
be converted into food drafts In New
York, and the food drawn from the
administration in Germany.
AS many workers are coming homo
from the service in Europe, vacancies
are made for which additional help Is
desired. 1t is necessary, however, tc
pass a very rigid examination before
acceptance One of the requirements
is thorough knowledge of the Ger
man language.

FEW BIDS FOR CITY
COAL SUPPLIES ARE
RECEIVED BY BOARD

Bids for supplying coal for the Rich
mond Municipal Electric plant and for
city buildings received by the board
of public works, Thursday, were al
most conspicuous by their absence.
One bid received for coal for NUM-
cipal buildings was rejected because
it failed to offer coal in the quantity
advertised for $50 tons. This bid was
submitted by the Richmond Coal COM
pany, by o. o. Smith.
One bid to supply the municipal
electric plant with $4,000 tons, was
taken under advisement The bidder
was the Smith Osborne Coal Sales
company, represented by 0. O. Smith.
The board objected to the restrictions
imposed by the bidding company. The
company agreed to give the board
until Monday morning to accept or
reject the bid.
Don't Guarantee Rate
The Smith Osborne Coal Sales COM
pany offered to supply the municipal
electric light plant with $4,000 tons of
Kentucky run of mine, nut and slack
for period of one year at the rate of
Sc per ton, f. o. b. mines, but the bid
was qualified with the demand that
If the city accepted it the city would
enter into the same conditional agree
ment with the operators that the bid
ding company would be required to
enter into, provision against main
tenance Of the rate in the event of
embargoes, strikes, wage increases to
miners, and other causes over which
the contracting company would have
no control
Mr.. Smith called attention to the
cha otto condition Of the coal market
This Is principally due" he said, "to
the action of the great industries 60
ing into the open market with prepos-
ferrous offers. They are willing to pay
almost any price for coal. The bigger
the expense they run up. the less ex-
cess profits tax they have to pay" he
remarked.
The city in recent months has pur
chased coal for the municipal plant
for $500, S5.25 and 1915 per ton. Only
occasional shipments on these orders
are being received. Some Of the coal
purchased at $500 has not yet been
received The plants consumption
now averages 100 tons per day and IT
has little over 80 days supply in re
serve
The bid for coal for city buildings Of
| fered only two carloads, considerably
less than the amount advertised for
