.CHAUTAUQUA TO
OPEN WITH TALK
|. BY YPLATTENBURC
Hawaiian Musicians Are On
Afternoon Program; For
mer Newspaper Editor
Speaks On Civic Duty.

Chautauqua opens in Albuquer-
que today. The big tent at the
corner of Seventh street and Gem
trail avenue is up and ready and
the first number of the program
will be given without any of the
difficulties which so frequently
characterize the opening of similar
events.
Upon the first days program are
two strong attractions. In the
afternoon number the Hawaiian
musicians will appear. Their con-
cert has been highly praised and it
is expected that the attendance will
be large.
The more formal opening comes
in the evening when Charles H.
Plattenburg will deliver his address
upon civic duty. Mr.. Plattenburg
is noted as a speaker upon civic
duty. He was for many years a
newspaper editor and his under
standing of community problems is
extensive. 1t is probable that
many business and professional
people will make 1t a special point
to hear the Plattenburg address.
Those who have not yet pur-
chased their season tickets are
urged to do so at once. They may
be secured this morning at A.
Fleischer's office between the
hours of $3.50 and IL o'clock.

PRELIMINARY Of
ROBERTSON MAY
Be HELD TODAY
Southern Pacific Fireman Is
To Be Arraigned in Con-
neCtion With Engineer
BohIman'S Death.
(By The Associated Press.)

Ell Paso, Tex, July S.-Prelimi-
nary hearing of Charles +. Robert
son, the Southern Pacific fireman,
held in connection with the death
of Engineer w. F. Bohlman and
the explosion which on Friday last
wrecked the locomotive manned by
the two men, is expected to be held
tomorrow at Maria, Tex, where
Robertson is under arrest and
where an official investigation of
the tragedy was held yesterday.
Low Water Caused Explosion.
The report of the Investigators
discloses the explosion was due to
low water in the boiler, which was
hurled 255 feet in front of the
train, where 1t rolled clear of the
track. The crown sheet was hurled
2SS feet to the rear and forty-five
feet to the south of the track. The
engineers body was thrown seven
ty-five feet directly away from the
track, the skull being crushed
against a rock. The body and
limbs were only slightly. burned.
Careful examination of the body of
the engineer by surgeon indicated
the engineer had received bullet
wound in the head sufficient to
cause instant death, and that the
wound had been received previous
to the time of the explosion.
Lost Consciousness.
Fireman Robertson told the in
vestigators he lost consciousness
about three and one-half miles east
of the point of the explosion and
recovered fifty-five minutes later
at the same place. When he recov-
cred consciousness he was laying
face downward by the side of the
track, his body extended at right
angles to the track.
1t is the opinion Of the board of
investigators that "the explosion
was due to low water in the boiler,
which was the result of foul play
on the part of some party un-
known that resulted in the death
of the engineer prior to the explo-
sion and the fireman being absent
from the engine at the time of the
explosion"
Mrs. W. F. Bohlman, widow of
Albuquerque morning journal., 1921-07-11

the dead engineer, who is in Ell
Paso for the funeral of her hus-
band, which will be held tomor-
row, said they had known Fire
man Robertson for about four
years. Robertson, she said, Joined
the army during the war and re-
turned eighteen months ago re-
sumed running on the engine with
her husband. She said her hus-
band and Robertson were always
the best of friends The Robertsons
traded at the confectionery store
conducted by Mrs. Bohlman at
Sanderson, Tex, where both fam
lilies resided. Mrs. Robertson said
she never knew her husband to
have an enemy. She discredited
the robbery theory, saying she new
or knew her husband to carry more
than a few dollars while out on
the road.
Three Men Are Held.
Three men who reached El Paso
about midnight Saturday, travelling
on a freight train that passed the
scene of the explosion, are held
by the police for investigation.
None answers the description of
the tall dark man." whom Brake-
man Earl Stirman says ran from
the train second or so before the
explosion. Police profess to be-
lieve the three are guilty of moth
ing more serious than stealing a
ride.

NEW METHODS
TUBERCULOSIS

The latest development in the
treatment of tuberculosis Is the
combination of camp life with the
service of a model hospital always
available. In the high foothills of
the Southern Sierras of Riverside
county, California, a millionaire's
mansion has been converted into a
complete general hospital and ad-
ministration building and sur
rounding it in a beautiful 900 acre
park are new open air cottages
screened and shaded. Here, safe
from intrusion, far above the noise,
dust and heat of the valley coun-
try, the man of moderate means
has a fighting chance to win his
way back to health. For informa-
ton address Hillcrest Convalescent

BUILT
OVER A SERIES
Of COAL MINES
From a Country Hamlet 30
Years Ago, City Has Be-
come the Third Largest
in Pennsylvania.
.Rx The Assecinted press.l

Scranton, Pa, July 10.-Thls
city, a good illustration of the
mining industry, will go anywhere
in order to obtain results.
Several cities in ancient days
were built beside volcanoes, rms
is one modern American city which
is built over coal mine. or rather
series of coal mines.
The present fame and future
prosperity of Scranton, hustlinS,
typical American city, literally rests
upon the coal industry. From
country hamlet fifty years ago
Scranton has become the thlra
largest city in Pennsylvania ana
ranks first among the coal mining
cities of the world. This grown
has been due to coal and most OF
the coal mined in the Scranton dis
trict comes from underneath the
city itself.
Beneath the business block and
household dwellings each day the
picks and the cutting machines are
digging deeper into the black
power producer which has brought
SO much wealth to the community
To the casual visitor it may seem
alarming to realize that under
meath the streets of the city there
is a labyrinth of shafts and tun-
nels forming an underground city
consisting of rooms connected by
an endless series Of subways and 70
know that the very life of the In
habitants is dependent upon the
strength of the supports which are
| left standing.
Center OF Anthracite Zone.
On the other hand, going to
work would seem to be simple
instead of nerve racking, energy
consuming subway trip or a tost-
ling, jerky trolly ride. The worker
in Scranton can sleep peacefully
above ground, eat refreshing
breakfast and then drop down a
few hundred feet to join his COL
leagues in reducing still further
the remaining foundation OF the
city.
Scranton is the center of the an
thracite coal region. This anthra-
cite coal deposit in central Penn
sylvania is one of the richest or
| Americas natural resources. This
coal occurs in an eliptical basis,
running down through the Lacka-
wanna valley. The deepest part of
the coal basin lies under the CEN
tral part of the city of Scranton.
Within the city limits there are
over six million tons of anthra-
ton with an annual production of
over sivx million tons of anthra-
cite coal. These mines have pro-
duced since their discovery over
225, 100000 tons of coal, which
means the coal industry within the
city limits has contributed some-
thing like a billion dollars of pro-
ductive wealth to the people OF
Scranton and the owners of the
mines. More coal is mined annual
ly in Scranton and the Scranton
coal basin has produced greater
total volume of coal than any
other city in the world.
Long before New York city had
even dreamed of subway system
the city of Scranton was well sup
piled with many miles of under
ground tunnelling.

ISLAND VILLA PARK

Catalina Island, Avalon, Calf,
July 10.-One thousand villas with
accommodations for $4,000 persons
on a ground space covering ap-
proximately twenty-three acres
such are the proportions of Island
Villa and its addition of Island
Villa Park open at Catalina for
the summer season of 1921. Nine
years ago when George Daul, its
present efficient manager. took
charge of this unique outdoor hos
telry there was Just one hundred
villas with accommodations for
some two hundred persons.
The housing problem at the
height of the summer season has
each year been a serious one at
Catalina with thousands of visitors
coming to this popular island re-
sort with each steamer. Practically
all building operations this year
have been concentrated on erecting
sufficient bungalettes and villas to
accommodate the increased num-
ber of vacationists being brought
to the island on the palatial ex-
cursion vessel Avalon"

of spreading eucalyptus trees and
up over the terraces of Avalon hill.
A huge canvas of 100000 square
feet covers this great wing.
A permanent villa of 500 winter
and summer bungalettes has been
established in the heart of the
Island city. These little cottages
are q combination of canvas and
insulite boarding with a raised
shingle roof allowing for free cir
culation Of air. These villas are a
departure from any formerly used
at Catalina and are proving popu-
lar the four seasons of the year.
The entire thousand tent cottag-
es and villas are operated on the
European plan. Probably no 9TH
er hotel in the world has so many
daily arrivals and departures as
handled at Island Villa-two thou
sand guests frequently registering
at the desk of its business office a
