Washington, Aug. 16.-Advices to
the National Coal association from the
ore and coal exchange at Cleveland
through which the movement of coal
is being handled from bituminous
mines to the Great Lakes for trans
shipment to the Northwest under pri-
ority order Of the interstate com
merce commission, indicate that there
has been an appreciable increase in
coal shipments during the last two

FROM THE PENCILS POINT

Every wise man takes his turn at
acting foolish.
A statement isn't necessarily false
because you disbelieve It.
A man seldom has to work overtime
to make fool OF himself
A man never gives his hair thought
until he hasn't any to think about.
There would be more microbes In
kisses IL they appreciated good soft
snap.
The charitable man Is kind to the
weak and the wise man is courteous
TO the strong.
A mans idea OF an evil communiea-
ton Is written statement from his
wife's dressmaker.
That woman never lived who hasn't
some time In her life been tempted to
write an anonymous letter.
The average wife believes anything
her husband says-except his explana-
ton OF long hair on his coat collar.
A man never amounts to much until
some nice girl takes pity on hln and
leads him to the matrimonial altar. !.

Berlin, Aug. 16.-Bolshevik forces
captured SOldau, on the Warsaw-Dan-
zig railroad about fifteen miles north
west Of Mlawa, it was learned here.
The Poles are reported retreating to
the northwest.
Front Gradually Recedes.
Warsaw, Aug. 16.-The front is be-
ing gradually brought neare. Warsaw.
Before Saturdays dawn artillery
flashes were visible against the clouds
to the north and northeast and at
times the bark of cannon could be
heard. People on the roofs Of the
highest buildings watched the gun
flashes until the early hours.
The communique comedies the Poles
withdrew further in the center of the
Warsaw front, asserting it was for the
purpose Of regrouping soldiers who
have fallen back upon the defense line
less than 10 kilOmeters out.
But even more serious than the ap-
prOaCh in that direction, according to
observers, is the situation northwest
of Warsaw, where some 1000 red cav
alrymen are making rapid progress to-
ward the Vistua.
Infantry Joins Red Horse.
The cavalry's right flank, which fol-
lows the right wing of the Russian
frontier, has been REINFORCED by red
infantry soldiers, who have reQuisi-
toned the peasants horses and are
following closely on the heels Of the
cavalry division.
The Poles say that there Is no
chance of the bolsheviki crossing the
Vistula either below or above War
saw. 1t is estimated it will require
several days before the reds from the
northwest reach the river.
Meantime the newspapers continue
confident that a counter-strke will
bring the results desired to free War
saw from immediate danger.
Rush 10 Defend VstuIa.
Precautions have been taken against
an encircling movement by the reds
designed to cross the Vistula above
and below Warsaw and enter the city
from the west. Warsaw's defense ex-
tends from the fortress of NOvo
Georgievsk through the fortress Of
zegrje through Radzymin, just be
yond which the bolsheviki brought up
artillery through CppIow IN tha for
tress of Ivangorod, 60 kilometers above
Warsaw on the Vistua.
In their westward drive the reds,
crossing the Bug river, in the region
of Brest-Litovsk, occupied SIedlce on
Wednesday, and Thursday reached
Kaluszyn, just east Of Warsaw. Ka-

Dublin, Aug. 16-Dublin was

heavy firing in the vicinity of Dublin
castle, the result of crowd attempt
ing TO rush the castle gates.
Soldiers fired over the peoples
heads and there were few revolver
shots from the crowd. No one was in

The trouble started when a crowd
saw a number of soldiers of the Lanca-
shire fusiliers who, they believe, shot
a boy named Farrell during the recent
riots in the city. The soldiers were
pursued to the castle gates. The iring
lasted ten minutes.
Attack Soldiers on Lorries,

castle an armOred ear with lorry OF

May Change Policy.
London, Aug. l6,-The British cab
met has been considering the Irish
situation and there is a persistent ru-
NOR that the government is on the
verge of sensational change of pol
icy. There are renewed rumOrs that
Bonar Law will select this time to an
nounce willingness to make much
more generous concessions, even
amounting to dominion rule.
All that can be said is that this
move is being considered. The gov
eminent is much worried about the
reception accorded the new coercion
bill not only in England, but in Ireland
as well, and it is possible that its OPP
GRAFTON may be suspended pending the
development of new policy.
Surprised by designations.
The government has been surprised
and alarmed also by the food of resig-
nations of positions Of honor such as
magistrates, lords lieutenant of coun-
ties and privy councillors in Ireland,
by men who have always been union
lists because of their opposition to
coercion. These designations in many
cases were accompanied by frank an
nouncements that they were joining
