Non-Unionists "Resign"

jackson, Mich, March 31.-The
Michigan electric railway, operating
i. Battle Creek, Kalamazoo, Lansing
and this city, failed to break a union
shop contract of Street Car Men.
The unioniSts insisted that the EN-
ployment of non-unionists was a vio-
lation of the contract. The COM
pany refused to act until nearly the
time set for a strike, and then ac-
cepted the non-unionists' "resigna-

Release by federal permit of de-
natured alcohol in Philadelphia for
the year ending June 30, 1920 amount
ed to more than $4,000 gallons. For
1929, 975,000 gallons; for 1928, 2
1858, 900 gallons. The secret Of this
unparalleled increase lies in the fact
that most of the liquor We buy now
is re-distilled denatured alcohol. Yet
Philadelphia is said to be a model
city.

Lightning and Radio

The bureau of standards states that
a radio antenna, If grounded, OIL pro-
vided with a lightning arrester, has
some of the properties of a lightning
rod, but, as commonly installed, has
these properties In such limited de-
grees that 1t is not to be regarded as
effective protection against lightning.
On the other hand, on account of its
relatively small size, 1t does not ap-
preciably increase the possibility of a
direct stroke. A modern lightning rod
system, however. is designed and in
stalled with a view of protecting
against direct strokes, and when this is
properly done, a high degree Of protec-
ton is obtained. Many lightning rods
In actual use are not properly installed,
and It is to these that isolated cases
of damage TO rodded buildings are
usually traced.

Flemish Burghers Had

The crown prince Of Sweden, guest
OF h mayor Of the ancient town of
Bruges in Flanders, expressed surprise
at the democratic Of the
burghers Of the town. They dropped
In quite casually at the marie" and
came to shake hands with the heir
apparent of the Swedish crown. These
Flemish burghers have ever been thus,
according to Pierre Van Paassen in the
Atlanta Constitution. There need be
no surprise in their customs. When
Louis VIII, king Of France, arrived in
Che to be present at the marriage
of his sister to the archduke of Aus
tria, a special entertainment was given
In the market square. On the one side
or the square was a luxurious lodge
draped In ermine and velvet, where
seats had been arranged for the car
dinal princes of the church and the
King. Some good burghers arriving be-
fore the king calmly occupied the royal
and princely seats. When the king put
In an appearance the burghers refused
to give up their seats to the cardinals,
though they made 20 for the king
OF France. Indignantly, the cardinal
archbishop of Rheims, who was pres
ent, ordered one citizen thrown, into
the river. The bailiff asked him: ION
whose authority shall l do this7" ION
the authority Of a prince Of the blood
and a prince Of the holy church." came
the order. "Your highness," replied
the bailif, ''the man you want me to
throw into the river is a cloth weaver,
and that means a little more than Q
mere prince Of France with u.s."

E OF NAN" FAVORITE
POEM OF SAMUEL COMPERS

Muskogee, Okla.-Samuel Gompers
knew the poets well and was fond of
quoting freely, either in public adj
dresses or in convention. One of his
favorite poems in time of stress and
the n which he quoted perhaps
more frequently than others in pub
lie addresses, was written by John
Niehart. 1t is:
More than half beaten but fearless,
Facing the storm and the night;
Breathless and bleeding but fearless,
Here in the thick of the fight.
!, who bow but before Thee,
God of the fighting clan,
With fists uplifted / implore Thee,
oh, give me the heart of a man.
What tho / live with the winners,
Or perish with those who fall;
Only the towards are sinners
Fighting the fight is all.

liquor in a quart bottle is too much
for twelve jurors to in de
termining whether the evidence con-
tains more than one-half of one pei
cent alcohol, in the opinion of Judge
Odlin, who ordered a mistrial of a
hearing because the jury spent part OF
its time in the court room and part
in the jury room and because toe
much of the evidence disappeared.
The bottle in question was almost
full when it was delivered to the jury
The latter retired with the evidence
and after several hours reached a
verdict.
But when the verdict was handed
in the bottle was empty and the court
room was found in great disorder.

FeU Climb Mount Arorot

Mount Ararat has long been the goal
of mountain climbers and Its sides
have been attacked with varying suc-
cess, for generations. With an altitude
of over 1900 feet, It's precipitous sides
present difficult problems in climbing.
A proposed railroad to the summit,
while within the range OF engineering
possibilities, is an almost fantastic
scheme. A legend persists that frag-
ments of the ark still lie upon the
summit of Ararat, but the few hardy
climbers who have reached this goal
discourage the belief. Noah. after de-
scending the mountain with his ships
company, is supposed TO have planted
a vineyard below the snow line, where
he was afterward buried.

Mrs. Coe, whose summer home is
at Cody, will be greatly missed in
Wyoming. Her beautiful home on
Carter Mountain, was filled each sum-
mer with GUESTS, who, having known
the breadth and charm of her hospi-
tally, will lament the loss which her
death will bring to culture and refine
ment, and all the softer and gentler
influences of life, which in u rough
land is the more conspicuous by its
presence.
Mrs. Coe was the daughter of
Henry H. Rogers, the president of
the Standard Oil Company, and she
inherited from her father many of
his noble traits. She was a woman
of broad reading and of discriminat-
ing perception. She had an unerring
sense of beauty and was possessed
with an understanding heart. She
was keen of intuition and ready to
appreciate excellence wherever 1t
came in her way. She will be missed
as a patron of art and as a benefac-
tor of wide interest. She was naturally
religious, and was a commitment OF
the Episcopal church. She leaves a
husband, three sons and one daughter

whom personally I shall miss more.

BEIRUT. Nov. 27.-With ''1nde-

Djebel Druse tribesmen are stu
continuing their guerrilla warfare
updeterred by their defeat at the
hands of the French at Ruchaya.
They have fled from the region
Of Ruchaya and have been forced to
give up some OF the villages which
they have held, but they are re-
ported burning and pillaging as
they are making isolated attacks.
The situation appears to be one
that will take lengthy operations
to clear. It is similar to that In
Morocco, for small bands OF native
rebels are able to Withstand the
French forces for long periods.
The Druses are cheered by the
news Of the political confusion In
France, and they believe that the
tardy arrival Of French re-enforce-
ments is due to the unwillingness
of the French to expend the huge
sums Of money which will be neces-
sary to suppress the instruction.

Girl, Freed, Turns
Tables on Her
Accuser

NEW YORK, Nov. 27.--After
having charges of disorderly
conduct against her dismissed,
Adelaide Modemon, high
school student, had the satisfac-
tion of turning the tables on
the man who brought her into
Tombs court by having him held
in $1,000 bail on. the same
charge.
The man was Abraham Co
lipsky, thirty-one. He accused
the girl of attempting to pass
into the ferry house without
dropping coin, and that when
he tried to stop her she slapped
him.
Miss Modemon, whose father
is the holder of many terminal
fruit stand concessions, declared
on the stand that Golipsky had
often seen her 60 through to
the fruit stand within the sta
tion's gates and that he had
made numerous advances to
her. These she had repulsed and
he sought to have her arrested
in revenge.
