OPERATORS TRYING
To FIND BASIS To
END COAL STRIKE
Conferences of Mine Owners
Going on Throughout
United States.

Cleveland, June 13.-An effort to
find a basis for the settlement of the
coal strike is being made by coal op-
orators, it became known here Tues
day. 7. X. Maher, president of the
Maher Galleries company, stated that
he understood conferences Of opera
tors were going in throughout the
country in an effort to get together on
a peace offer to the unions.
Reports from the Pittsburgh coal
fields that a new Pennsylvania coal OPP
orators association had been formed
brought forth predictions from local
operators Tuesday hat the first break
in the nationwide bituminous coal
strike may not be far distant.
Officials of the Pittsburgh Vein OPP
orators association, an organization of
local mine operators, admitted a change
in the Pennsylvania organization might
afford a wedge with which to open the
way for negotiations on the old four
state agreement basis with the miners.

ATTEMPT MADE
To DYNAMITE
WATER SUPPLY
Effort Made to Start
Two Billion Gallons
Flowing Down Valley.

Providence, r. l.. June 13.-Rushing
Of national guard troops from strike
duty in valley villages to the flat river
reservoir in the town of Coventry
Pawtuxet, Tuesday revealed that an
attempt had been made to dynamite
the south gate in the dam at the re-
s~ervoir, which supplies many of the
textile mills with water.
A case of so sticks of the explosive
was apparently used. according to state
officials who hurried to the scene to
conduct an investigation. Had the at
tempt been successful. the officials
said, two billion gallons of water in the
reservoir would have been lOosed upon
the Pawtuxet river valley.
The dynamite was exploded back Of
the heavy cast iron casing of the gate.
1t tore out a large part of the casing
ripped away several feet in the cement
facing. destroyed the timbers around
it and broke the spindle that holds the
gate in place. The gate, however, in
stead of blowing out, as apparently had
been intended, fell across the face of
a saunch set Of tubes just ahead Of it,
so that no water could escape.

marchers smiled widely and thankfully
as they said to each other, 80 this
is San Francisco?
There have been longer, vaster pa
geants in San Francisco, but there
neve yet has been one with the vi
brant, vivid coloring and. life that
marked the great shrine procession
Tuesday. There have been pageants
here where the enthusiastic hosts
along the sidewalks broke through all
restraint and suggested to the march
ers; there has never been one before
that has produced such wide-eyed and
open-mouthed awe. All of the old
adjectives failed and for the lack of
new ones, the crowd, for the most
part, was dumb.
Promptly at 9 o'clock the great siren
of the ferry tower blared forth to the
world the fact that the pageant was
on. A hush came over the wide thor
oughfare that was to be it's setting.
Traffic disappeared as though under
a wand, the way was opened as clear
as the way of the safaris over the
desert. A shrill whistled signal and
the pageant for which the new world
has been waiting for so years was on.

VJR CJNIA IS ASKED TO RAISE
HUNTING DOGS ON GAME FARM

Richmond, Va, Oct. 24.-(SpeciaD
The Game Department of Virginia,
which is supported entirely by the CO.
operation of huntsmen and farmers, is
now beseiged with appeals to raise
high-class hunting dogs, such as set
ters, pointers, and fox-hounds, at the
Game Farm at Windsor Shades Va.
The advisability or propriety of such
a project is questioned by Commits
sioner Lee The use Of . small part
of the present Game Farm, which has
1900 acres in its bounds, is suggested
for operating a kennel of high-class
hunting dogs, to be managed by an eX-
perienced, expert dog breeder.
The suggestion has come from Il
resolution of huntsmen of the Blue
Ridge section where wild game IS
plentiful and good hunting dogs are
scarce. The argument of the resolu-
ton is that the country boy who is
not able to pay $50, for good, high
class hunting dog, and really appreci-
ates this class of dog, and can secure,
through the proper qualifications, Jus;
as good a dog as the man of greater
means, thereby making sportsmen Of
the boys and at the same time eliml-
mating the mongrel hunting dog to
some extent. ..
The Department is. asked to lend
its aid to the enterprise by providing
a high-class imported stud dog of each
hunting variety; also several brood
matrons, the puppies to be disposed of
to the citizens of Virginia at a nomi-
nal cost of SIS each. 1t is made plain
by prominent sportsman of the state
that the project can and should be self
sustaining at nominal charge for
the dogs, and he has already offered
to donate an ample number of hunting
brood matrons, provide dthe proper
restrictions are enforced on any re-
sale of dogs for commercial profit.
AS this would be new venture on
the part of the Department of Game
and Inland Fisheries, and something
which no other state has even sug~
gested, the Commissioner has taken
the matter under advisement ana
awaits suggestions from sportsmen
from all parts of the state.

New York. Oct. 24.-There is a
possibility, rather vague just at pre-
sent. that Centre College will come
north to New York for its big foot
ball game in 1923, Quite sizeable
hit of money is to be made from doing
business with the Colonies, as Har-
ward will attest, and since the Grim
son is bound by agreement to drop
inter-sectional games, Manhattan
feels that it is the logical iegatee.
If Centre could draw more than
10000 at the stadium it would most
certainly fill the new field of the New
York Yanks to its capacity, and a
rich golden harvest for all concerned
would be the gratifying result.
Some of its alumni would like to
have Columbia University figure as
the party of the second part in this
transaction, and the Moringside out
fit. having a local appeal, would not
be a bad box office bet, provided 1t
can muster something better than
second-clasS football next fall.
But quite independent of this line
of thought, a New York promoter
is figuring on bringing Centre Col
lege here in 1923 to play the leading
Eastern team of the present season.
Preliminary plans were held IN
allowance, however, until it was de
termined how well the Colonels would
do against Harvard. Had they been
beaten by four or five touchdowns, as
Harvard would be pleased to have
had it. Centre College probably would
have remained in the South until such
time as it could summon another Nc
MILAN to carry the banner.
Thanks to the fact that they out
played Harvard, gaining 16 first
downs to the Crimson's seven, and
We're even more colorful than before,
Centre is a greater attraction than
ever. New York, which patroniZes any
thing from street fights to sword
swallowing, would riot at the gates
to get its first view of the Kentucky
team under colorS.
Seemingly, Centre College has be
come a permanent institution as a
bov-otfice boon. For one thing, it is
always bizarre, as witness the intro
duction Of the lock-Step shift at the
stadium on Saturday. For another, it
has proved that it can carry on
from season to season in spite of its
loss of headliners.
Mcmillan was graduated last spring
and in his place Charley Moran un-
covered Flash Covington, who turn
ed out to be the best ball runner of
the field, regardless of the fact that
his tumbleS helped to lose the Har-
ward game
