TRIES TO CROSS
ENGLISH CHANNEL
ON WATER CYCLE

London Sept. 15.-An attempt to
cross the English channel on a so,
called water cycle" has just been
made by Miss Zetta Hills, young
Englishwoman. She started at a.
m. from Calais for Folkestone, about
30 miles. The currents prevented a
direct course being followed and at
first Miss Hills was taken down Chan
mel along the French coast until a
few miles from Boulogne. Then the
tide turned and she w2s swept up
Channel until east Of the Goodwin
Lightship. Once more the tide
changed and the cycle made a west,
erly course.
After covering about As miles in 12
hours, the machine broke down, ow-
ing, it is supposed to the backwasf of
a passing steamer, and Miss Hills was
taken off by a rowing boat only three
and one half miles from the English
coast.
Her food and drink were milk. fruit
and boiled ham. She intends to try
the trip again,

PORTUGAL SUFFERING
FROM COAL SHORTAGE
(By Associated Press.)

Lisbon, Sept. 16. Portugal Is suf-
fering from a shortage of coal and
provisions which have resulted in
looting of food stores in some parts
Of the country and in the reappear
arce OF the formerly familiar long
lines Of women standing outside Of
bakeries waiting for bread. The sit
uaton has been complicated by an
announcement of the minister OF the
interior published in the SeculO that
the government has become aware OF
bolshevist plot to provoke disturb
ances all over Portugal, so as to lead
up to a general NOV later. The
minister made 1t known that the gov
ernment had taken precautions to
Illustrate those plans.
There have been severe conflicts at
Sentarem, Setubal and In other parts
of the country where stores have been
looted and emptied of their contents
The military authorities assumed con-
| troll in Santarem and order was re-
stored but subsequently fish riots oc-
Cured, the Santarem fish market was
attacked by mob which seized the
fish and divided it among themselves.
Dry cod formerly was the chief and
favorite food of the people but is now
so expensive that only the well-to-do
can afford 1t. One shopkeeper ap-
reased the mob by distributing his
supply of cod fish and thus was al
lowed to retain his other wares.
The seriousness Of the shortage OF
food and uel has been emphasized by
a statement OF Premier Granjo made
in Parliament in which he said that
there was lack not only OF coat
land provisions but Of all other ar
tlcles indispensable for living. Since
there was only 10000 tons OF sugar
IiU supply the country. the government
was going to prohibit its sale In res.
aurants and pastry shops so that the
hospitals of Portugal might not rur
short.
Butter, lard, coal, oil and ever
vegetables have disappeared from tht
market since government prices wer'
fixed for those articles, said th'
Premier "The bread question is ev
