Speculation In State Bonds

The belief is general in financial
circles that the State can hardly ex-
pect to dispose Of its $1.500,0O State Of
Maryland bonds next month under a
5k or per cent rate. The high
Yields now obtainable Is many gilt
edge securities leads TO the belief a
high rate of interest will be inevitable
If the securities are to be successfully
placed. In a number of instances, il
is pointed out, when Maryland coun-
ties have attempted to float bond
sales, bids as were received were so
high they were rejected

COLUMBUS. o.. July 15.-Pressure
Is being used by political friends of
Governor Cox on f. II. Moore, the
Governors pre-convention campaign,
to have him accept the Craftsmanship
of the Democratic National Committee
and assume active management of the
national campaign.
Former Congressman George II.

the San Francisco Convention. where
he worker with Mr. Moore in the Gov

ernors Cox this morning. Mr.. White
said he tried to impress upon the
Presidential nominee the necessity of
having Mr.. Moore to manage the cam
paign and urged him to use his in
fluence in an attmept to dissuade Mr..
Moore from adhering TO his desire 10
step aside for some other person. Mr..
White will accompany Governor Cox
to Washington Friday for the Sunday
conference with President Wilson.
Governor Cox still refrained today
from commenting on the third party.
He smiled when informed that an
Ohio man had been nominated for
Vice-President by the third party.

offerings reached this grade.
II was expected that the crop would
be late reaching market as the wet
and cool weather of early spring and
summer retarded the ripening grain
and held back the harvesting. How
ever. Baltimore dealers say this
should have all been overcome now
and they are looking for an increase
in arrivals from the counties of Mary

SLOW DELIVERY OF
OIL FOR STATE ROADS

That the delivery of about half the
supply of oil necessary for resurfac-
ing the State roads is in sight is the
statement of John N. Mackall, chair
man of the State Roads Commission.
He expressed himself as feeling very
much easier concerning the roads
maintenance program.
Getting the stone chips necessary
for this work on the roads is still
proving to be the most difficult part
of the problem, said Mr.. Mackall, and
when that is solved there need be no
fear of any further delay in the work
of Improvement.
Several days ago Mr.. Mackall di-
rected a letter to Daniel Willard,
chairman of the advisory committee
Association of Railway Executives.
and president of the Baltimore and
Ohio Railroad, requesting his aid in
effecting delivery of road material.
Thus far no answer has been received
by Mr.. Mackall.

FORTY DAYS RAIN
FOLLOWS RAINY
ST. SW|TH|N'S DAY

July is half gone today. That does
not mean anything unusual on the
fifteenth OF the month. except on the
fifteenth of this particular month, for
this is st. Swithin's Day.
The author of the Shepherds
Kalendar,v a very old book says: If
on st. swiihin's Day it prove fair
temperate winter will follow. but
if rain. storm or wind. then the
contrary
That 1t should rain for forty days
after a wet ST. Swithin, appears TO
have been an article OF popular be-
lief in Anglo-Saxon times.
After last nights prolonged cleo
trio storm and downpour OF rain, like
the little girl in Jean Ingelow's
Songs of Seven" everybody today is
saying There's no rain left in
heaven" but overhanging clouds
would indicate there is, and that on
this ST. swithin's Day there will be
another downpour.
Yesterdays storm as most of them
do, took the Weather Man wholly by
surprise. 1t came ahead of schedule
time.
Weather Man Gives Warming
After the storm had taken him by
surprise the Weather Man said he
expected further showers during the
night, some of which probably would
be after midnight, and hence on "St.
Swithin's time"
IF that happens, look out" he
warned.
The warning was a timely one.
Last summer rain fell during 20 of
the 40 days following a precipitation
ON the feast of st. Swithin. The me-
diaeval churchman scored his most
impressive points during the six days
starting July Is, each of which was
marked by heavy rainfall.
James H. Spencer, who has be-
come the new Weather Man at Bal
timore since last year. promises
strict neutrality in this years con-
test He admits he is somewhat
'hereticaP' about st. Swtthin's in
fiuence on the weather, but he also
comedies the high batting average"
of the saint. Yesterday he prepared
the following information for the past
six st. Swithin's Days.
1914-No rain; 40 days were
unusually dry.
1916 ained; an exceedingly
wet spell in August.
1916-Rained; 40 days wetter
than average.
1917-Rained; 40 days about
the same as 1916.
191S-No rain; 40 days were
very dry.
1919-Rained; rained 20 days
of the 40.
Is Well Posted On Traditions
Mr.. Spencer is known as one of the
best-informed men in the Weather
Service on interesting traditions and
sayings relative to weather. He has
found that many of them are not mere
superstitions, but are based on fact.
He could find no explanation for the
st. Swithin legend other than that in
the period following the middle of
July weather conditions usually are
such as to porduce wet spell.
Yesterday Mr.. Spencer quoted a
verse from Poor Robins Almanac of
1897. He recited it right out from
memory, but was careful not to vouch
for its entire authenticity. 1t was

OLIVE THOMAS, STAR OF THE
MOVIES, DIES BY TAKING
POISONOUS SOLUTION

PARIS, Sept. 10.-0live Thomas,
formerly widely known on the Amer
lean musical comedy stage, and for
several years past motion picture
star, died at eleven o'clock this morn
ing in the American Hospital at
Neuilly. She was taken to that insti-
tuition last Sunday suffering from a
slow poisoning, having swallowed a
poisonous solution early that day by
mistake, according to DR.. Joseph
Choate, the American physician in
charge of the case.
Miss Thomas, who came to Europe
with her husband, Jack Pickford, sew
eral weeks ago, had suffered from
nervous depression, it was said. First
aid was promptly given her by Mr.,
Pickford when he returned Sunday to
the hotel where they were stopping
and found his wife in serious con-
dition, and every possible effort was
made to counteract the effects of the
poison but without avail.

COAL SHORTAGE
WILL BE ACUTE
Columbians Will Have To Resort To
Use of Wood, Coal Dealers
Say.

Columbus coal dealers are sounding
a warning to Columbus that unless
the coal situation gets materially bet
ter the people of this city must resort
to the use Of wood
The dealers say that it will be i'm
possible to secure sufficient coal to
meet the demands of this city and
that wood will have to be used in its
stead.
Mayor McClanahan is anticipating
the situation which is sure to develop
this winter, and he has force of
hands in the woods cutting wood for
winter use. This wood will be used
in the schools and in public buildings,
and if necessary it will be distributed
to the public at actual cost.
The railroads are eonfscating coal
right along, and scores Of cars that
have left the mines consigned to deal
ers in this city have been confscated
by the railroads.
The fact remains that Columbus
along with every other city in the
country is going to face serious coal
famine this winter and some concert
ed action to secure a wood supply is
imperative.

TO ENFORCE WEED LAWS.

Mr.. 7. w. Lewis, secretary of the
city board of health, states that the
State Board of Health's laws govern
ing conditions in Columbus will be
strictly enforced in the future.
He states that this will be especial
ly true with the law relative to the
cleanliness of streets, ETC., which says
that "all Incorporated towns, villages,
or other cities must keep all sidewalks
and streets clear of weeds or other
growth and garbage, which might
cause an insanitary condition. All
owners of property in cities, towns or
villages must keep their premises and
vacant lots clean and free from weeds
and other garbage, SO as not to be at
any time dangerous to the public
health.

EVERY MEMBER
TO HAVE VOICE
IN ELECTION

There is one feature of the pre-
liminary organization work on which
the members of the Chamber of Com
merce campaign committee wish to
place special emphasis, and that is the
temporary character of the groups in
charge of the preparations for the
drive.
"There should be absolutely no con-
fusion in the public mind" said a
member of the campaign committee,
"as to the relation of the men who
have volunteered to assist in the or
ganization of the new Chamber of
Commerce. These men have taken
hold of the work because it was
something that must be done and they
have been willing to give their time
to it.
with the close of the membership
drive, the campaign committee and
all others will automatically cease to
exist and function and their members
will assume exactly the same rank
