ORIGIN OF "DICKENS NAMES"
Of the Admirers Of Writer Of
Immortal Fiction.

One of the most interesting Of semi
literary hobbies Is the search after
the origin Of Dickens Names" 1t Is
specially interesting, no doubt. because
nobody a prove to demonstration
that his particular solution Is the
correct one, and. as a consequence,
the long list Of potential discoveries
is seldom reduced, much less exhaust.
ed. One Of the latest "strikes" is a
possible origin for the old favorite,
"Chadband." A recent writer tells how,
a few years ago, In one Of the small
hamlets between Sutton and EPSON,
there stood a small tailor's shop bear
ing In large letters the name Of "Chad-
band" And he goes on to wonder
whether Dickens, "going down by road
Dorking, noticed the name, and kept
It for future USE" for on that route
he would have passed the very door
Of the shop. The writer seems to think
1t highly likely: while. in proof that
Dickens actually made the journey,
was 1t not in the town Of Dorking
that there stood the Marquis Of Gran
by3 And was it not the hostess Of
the Marquis of CRANKY who ultimate
ly became Mrs. Wellerf-Christian

The period from 1914 through 1917
and 1918 and into 1919 may be regard
ed as a distinct epoch In the coal in
dustry, Of which the year 1917 repre-
sented only n section, but a section
which, II not the most remarkable for
its achievements. was at once the most
chaotic and the most momentous In the
history Of the industry.
In response to the unprecedented de-
mand the bituminous mines produced
651, 100, 563 tons. or nearly 10 per cent
more than the output Of the year be-
fore. The anthracite output was co.
611.S11 net tons, an Increase over 1916
OF 1871 per cent. The total output of
both hard and soft coal was thus over
$50. O00, 1000 tons.
This record output was accomplish
ed by a labor force of 603, 143 men In
the bituminous and 154,174 In the an
thracite mines. In spite of the draft
the number of workers in the bitumi-
nous industry was greater in 1917 that
in 1915.
