Famous 1racker Dead.

Perhaps the oldest of the Australian
aborigines has lately died at the age
of 1O1. His name was Jack Schoolie,
and he was commonly known as King
Jacky.
He was known all over the district
of Pindari where he was living, for
his skill with cattle and horses, up to
the age, Of ninety. and for the instinct
Of observation by which he could fol-
low track that an ordinary man
could not see at all.
Jacky was 'full-blooded aboriginal,
and perhaps the last OF the men who
linked together the old life Of the ma
tie with the new life Of civilization.

upwards of 10000 men. The Ford
workers to be thrown out of EMPLOY
ment total approximately 10000.
Mr.. Ford announced several weeks
ago that he would close his Detroit
plants September 1e, because of the
coal situation. He denied real
shortage existed and charged certain
brokers were demanding an exhorbi-
tant price for fuel. He said rather
than pay these prices he would close
his plants for an indefinite period.
Ford Motor Compay foremen re-
ceived in structions this afternoon to
advise all workers under their charge
to Save their money and live as eco
nomically as possible" during the
suspension. Many workers said they
took this to mean the shutdown
might be protracted.
According to word received by the
street railway officials from Mr.. Ford
practically all operations in the Ford
plants here will have ceased by late
afternoon tomorrow.
1t was learned that notices had
been posted announcing the Ford
trade school, where the manufac-
turer trains mechanics, would close
tomorrow. This school remained in
operation during the Ford shutdown

Mr. Ford and his company execu.
tives were in conference late TODAY.
1t was reported a plan was being
discussed whereby part of the trac

his first statement announcing the
contemplated shutdown. In addition
