No Profiteerina In Coal!

The public and the authorities
should be on their guard against prof
iteering in coal. Operators should
understand that the American peo-
Pile are in no mood to be gouged and
that any attempt to secure undue
profits will swell the clamor for
strict government regulation of
prices.
From central Illinois m a pro
test by the union miners against a
raise of $1.25 a ton to the consumer.
They point out that they have return
ed to work under the old conditions
and at the old wages and that as
here was a great quantity of coal
stored a. the beginning of the strike
the mines would have been idle this
summer anyway. This brazen in
crease they declare, will create in
the public mind the belief that the
operators and miners have been in
COLLISION to raise prices 1t certainly
looks as If the operators in the cen.
trail Illinois district had something
to explain,
No p%rofiteering in coal! Let that
be the watchword throughout the

GOOD HUNTING FOR SHARKS
Unfortunate School Of Porpolses Help
lees In the Power Of Their
lnveterate Enemies.

Passengers on the Scandinavian
liner, Frederick VIII, which arrived at
New York a few days ago, told a re.
marhable tale Of a grim battle be
tween occupants Of the deep, while
off the Grand banks Of Newfoundland.
The ship was proceeding swiftly In
good weather about dawn when the
lookout sighted a large school Of por.
polses ahead.
Instead of proceeding as usual in
one direction In orderly fashion,
describing an occasional graceful arc
In the air, the fish plunged madly In
all directions, leaplng straight in the
air and flashing the water to foam. AS
they became aware of the presence
OF the ship they quickly gathered
closely about 1t, as though for pro.
lection, swimming rapidly alongside to
keep pace with It.
Their number was estimated at 200.
the largest school any of the crew had
ever seen.
Suddenly q number Of huge black
shadows were noted stealing up on the
school from behind. The sinister dorsal
fin occasionally appearing above the
water proclaimed them to be sharks.
They gained steadily and finally
plunged among the porpoises. In.
stantly the terror Of the latter again
became apparent as they strove madly
to escape In all directions.
In their confusion they dived wildly
against the side Of the ship. Some
were struck by the on-rushing bow.
Others were drawn into propellers.
Meanwhile the sharks continued q
m%ethodlcal campaign Of determination.
One after another OF the frantic por-
polses was ripped by the teeth OF the
pursuing monsters, and left to be con-
sumed later at leisure.
The fight continued until half the
school had been killed, when the
sharks abandoned the chase.
For an hour after, the porpoises
chung TO the ship. At last, deciding
the danger had passed, they swung
off on q course at right angles and
disappeared.

Hospital for plants.

A hospital for plants is the latest
device, designed by m ingenious Eng.
llshman, for the aid and comfort Of
lovers Of flowers, who are often dis.
tressed Mt sight of their favorite
plants alllng and dying from maladies
for which they know no cure. When
Il sick plant Is brought to the hospital.
1t is Immediately examined aud sent
to the room prepared for its case. If
It Is suffering from n cold II Is tended
with heat; If 1t has become anaemic
from an excess Of solar rays, It goes
through a freezing treatment. The
unwholesome branches are removed.
while those that are anaemlc are fed.
1t seems that certain plants arc
very nervous. Some easily get neuras-
thenic, while their neighbors show I'M
deniable symptoms Of hysteria, But
special arrangements permit the appll-
cation to each of them of the treat
ment 1t requires.

Something TO

BY F. II. WALKER
r YOU
By F. II. WALKER

A COMMON and frequent complaint
"A nowadays among self-esteemed
young men and women Is that they
arc not making satisfactory progress.
With more or less petulance they
declare that their incomes are not
sufficient to keep them in the style
In which they want to live.
Instead OF being compelled to de-
pend on popular shops for their
clothes, they yearn to be in position
to p~atronlze high-priced tallors and
dressmakers, and thus in their false
estimation keep step with the rich
by making repeated shows Of fine
feathers.
The plebian atmosphere in which
these hapless mortals are surrounded
is most dIspleaslng.
Any real effort to improve their
mental qualifications Is apart from
the question. and contrary to their
inmost wishes.
Though apostles Of laxity, devotees
Of empty pleasures and devout dis;
clples at the shrine Of prodigalIty,
these d%lsgruntled young men and
women openly blame the world for
their imagined plight, often condemns.

DESTROYS OF rising TO the surface
where he or she can swim with head
above water must pull a hard, con
tInuous stroke, quite regardless of
what others are doing.
It is the only way to keep at the
tpp and keep moving ahead.
Drifting Is perilous to everybody
who INDUCES In 1t, certain in the end
to lead to disaster by wrecklng the
fondest hopes and highest aspirations.
In spite Of our Wanted pride Of
progress, drifting is becoming a ma
tional habit, particularly among the
puny-mlnded who bend their knee to
the god Of gold rather than to the
god Of wisdom.
Every good thing In life is meas

FIVE YANKEE CRAFT
SEEK COVETED TROPHY
Gloucester Fishing Schooner After
Prlzs Won Last Year BY
= the Canadians.

Gloucester, Mass, Aug. 2O.-Fiye
fishing schooners are seeking the
honor Of representing Yankee fisher.
me- In the race for the International
Fisherman's Trophy late in October.
The elimination races will be sailed
October II, 10 and IA OF Eastern
Point.
The vessels which will fight 1t out
for the responsibility of trying to re-
gain the trophy won last year by the
Halifax fr,lerman B.uenose are OK
pected to be Mayflower, Elizabeth
Howard, Yankee, Henry Ford and l..
A. Dunton.
Puritan, the pride Of Gloucester, on
which many a deep sea fisherman
pinned his faith in the great race this
fall, lies piled up on the t%reacherous
shore of Sable Island. Along the
water front the old sea dogs say that
the reason for Puritan's wreck last
winter was that she developed a
speed far greater than those on
board realized and fetched rp on
Sable Island long before she was sup
posed to be near it.
Now Gloucester folk are turning to
Henry Ford, which ran agroa ID On
Essex Beach when she was being
launched in April and was seriously
damaged. Sle was in port recently
with a large cargo Of salt cod and
showed no structural defect as a re-
sult Of her early mishap. But the
fisherfolk wish that Henry Ford were
a little longer and openly admit that
the other Gloucester entrant, Eliz'
abeth Howard, is too heavy.
From a Gloucester point Of view
TIE most profitable fisherman is one
measuring between 80 and lO5 feet
at the waterline. For this reason
they frowned upon Mayfower and
Bluenose, which measures Ill feet at
the waterline.
The principal criticism Of May
flower, barred from the race last
year. was that those who burt and
owned her were not interested in the
fishing industry and that her cost
was almost $60,000-twice as much
as the average cost of a Gloucester
fisherman. Her carrying capacity al
so is less than the average fisher
man. 1t Is expected, however, that
the international Committee VIII ap-
prove Mayfower's entry, as she has
made a number of fishing trips. Al
though her profits have not been as
large as in the case OF some OF the
other vessels, owing to her high hrst
cost, she has been fairly profitable
to her Owners.
The recent races of the New York
Yacht Club off MarbloIlead attracted
great interest among Gloucester fish
ermen who attended In large numbers
to get pointers for their races two
months hence.
While the deep-sea fishermen are
unsurpassed in the art of getting the
most out of their vessels under low
or sails or in making runs in from
the banks, they are not quite so yer
satlle as the amateurs in the game OF
hitting the line a few seconds aftef
the start.
In the races OF the last two years
they have had the benefit of the start
ing and light sail handling OF a mum
Der OF Marblehead amateurs. This
year the rules permit only actual
men on the after deck, although there
is provision for one observer.
