KNOXVILLE HAS SEVERE
ELECTRICAL STORM
EXTINCUISHES LIGHTS, STOPS
STREET CARS AND DOES
OTHER DAMAGE.

A severe electrical and rain storm
THAT swept over Knoxville Friday night
played havoc with the electiio light
wires, stopped the street cars, started
several small blazes and did consider
able damage to property.
The storm came on about six o'clock
and about six thirty trouble was first
experienced with the light wires.
From then until $3.50 the current was
intermittent. AT ten minutes to nine
the lights went off and did not come
on again until ten o'clock. The light
and power company was not prepared
for the emergency. The boilers of the
emergency station of the company on
Sixth avenue were cold and over an
hour was required to get up sufficient
steam to turn on the lights.
Considerable other damage was done
by the wind and rain. Several roofs
were blown off and other damage was
done to the business section of the
city.
Several small fires we're started,
but luckily they were all quickly ex-
and no serious damage re-
suited.

FORD OFFERS TO LEASE
MUSCLE SHOALS PLANT
HIS PLAN WILL BE BOON TO AC-
RICULTURE-CHEAP FER
TILIZER FOR FARMER.

| The entire South is aroused over the
probability of the early completion of
the Muscle Shoals nitrate plant and
Jailed products under the proposed
plan of Henry Ford.
Ford's proposal has been turned ov-
er to Secretary of the Treasury Mel
lon by Secretary of War Weeks, In
order that treasury experts may pass
Upon the feasibility of Ford's plan.
Other offers from private concerns
for acquiring the nitrate plant for
which Ford has submitted proposal
of lease of 100 years at $I,sooooo a
year, and cash payment of $s,ooo,-
900 are expected by the governmet,
Secretary Hoover said Monday.
J Secretary Hoover indicated that
there had been some discussion with
the DUPONT interests, but said there
had been no specific proposal submit
ted as yet. A number of chemical and
power companies, he said, are com
sidering the proposition, but nothing
definite in the way of an offer has yet
been determined.
just what. the big project will mean
to the South when completed, both in
its agricultural and industrial develop
ment cannot be comprehended by the
average lay mind at this time. Ger
tain it is that the benefits to be deriv-
ed from carrying out Ford's plan will
be far beyond any already conceived
by even those most closely in touch
with the South's agricultural and in
iustrial development.
Benefit to Farmers.
Probably the greatest of all benefits
hat will come to the country as a
whole, and especially to the South, is
he fact that upon the completion Of
he Muscles Shoals plant there will
become availsble nitro
zen for the soil at cost that will
make fertilization possible in
many cases where such is not now the
ase. Farmers all over the South are
the development of the Mus
lie Shoals with the very greatest in
crest and it is hardly possible to es-
innate the good that will come to agri-
ultura1 interests all through this Sec
on in case Mr.. Ford's plan, or one
imilar, is adopted. Il.
DR.. X. c. Davis, professor of agri-
ulture at Peabody college and man
ho is sp1endidly informed as to the
.rming situation in the South, the
alton and the world, discussed the
gricultural angle of the Muscle
hoals situation with Nashville Ban
er reporter Saturday afternoon and
xpressed his unqualified approval of
lie acceptance by the government of
,me proposal such as Mr.. Ford has
ade. In talking over the matter DIR.
avis said:
"The imagination can hardly grasp
e possibilities that may finally de-
,lop from the manufacture of avail
lie nitrogen for the soil. Fortunate
/, the same products that the govern
ent had in mind manufacturing for
plosives when they started to build
ese dams at Muscle Shoals are ap-
icable to the manufacture of ferti-
ers for growing crops"

ALVIN C. YORK MAY
LOSE HIS HOME
WAR HERO REPORT.
ED TO BE IN GREAT FL
NANCIAL STRAITS.

L
the home of Sergt. Alvin c. York, i
to the effect that the Tennessee wal
hero is in danger of losing his farm
and thereby having the dreams o,
his life thrown to the winds. A rep.
resentative of the Newspaper Enter
prise Association recently visited
Sergt York at his home, and this is
the story that resulted, which was
printed widely in the daily newspapers
of the country last week, under a Pail
Mall date line.
If you were living on one of the fn-
est farms in Tennessee
If you had wife and 3-months-
old baby
If you faced losing your farm thru
foreclosure of a $I2,5oo mortgage
And you were the greatest hero of
the world war
And you could possibly make
enough to pay off the mortgage
merely by showing yourself in publl,--
WOULD YOUR
That is the question Sergt. Alvin c.
York has to face. His answer is no Z
He will not commerciaiize his patri-
,tism.
L would rather lose my farm and
90 back to work as common day la
'orer than to commercia1ize the fame |
which was incidently all to an act of
Providence" he says.
On October I8, 1913, in the Argonnel
Forest, York, single-handed, killed 25l
Germans, put out of commission IS
machine guns and marched into camp
IS captured Germans, including ma
or and three lieutenants. For this
eat he won the Congressional Medal
+ Honor and the .Croix de Guerre,
inned on by Marshal Foch himself.
Spurning movie and vaudeville of
ers, he came back to his mothers
illside farm.
A short time later he married girl
the neighborhood. Friends and adj
lirers picked out farm for him al
lost directly across the road fromI
lie farm of his mother, and paid $II,-
IS on it through popular subscription.
For a time things moved serenly,
Twin c., Jr., came and life seemed ev-
I more worth living.
But such good fortune was not toI
st. Crops were a big disappoint-
ent. Farm products brought excep-
onally low prices.
With the $I2,5oo mortgage for the
llance on his farm due this fall,

 MT. Wernecke was asked to give the facts about Mayo. and favored The Empire with the following com plete summary of the work and hopes of the camp:
 '"The Mayo district was known first over score of years ago for its placer gold production, but after 900.000 ounces of silver had been produced between 1915 and 1918, that area became known as a silver camp Although silver ore was known at Keno Hill for several years, it's value was not appreciated until 1919, when Louis Bouvette sent ore to Dawson to be assayed, the returns from which was sufficient to immediately inter. est the Yukon Gold Company.
 Yukon Gold Interested
 ''The Yukon Gold Company acauir. ed interests on Keno Hill in August, 1919. and have ever since been ac- lively developing their claims. The first shipment. consisting of 2,35O tons of lead-silver ore, was hauled to Mayo in the winter of 192O-21 and shipped to the Selby shelter last summer. This ore contained approxi. mately 200 ounces of silver and 60 per cent lead. During this coming winter between 5000 and 5000 tons will be- mined and shipped from their No. vein. This ore is expected to have a higher silver content than the shipment of last year. At present the Yukon Gold Company is employ. ing 9 men at the top of Keno Hill, where the ore is being mined.
