had worse. As for distance, condi-

night there was not great deal OF

COAL Crisis NOT
ABATED one BIT
Operators Reject Pinchot's
Peace Proposals

Philadelphia. Dec. Up - Gov
ernor Pinchot's plan for ending the
hard coal strike has failed, the
mine owners having rejected 1t. and
hope Of an early peace in the an
thracite field today appeared slight.
Refusal Of the Governors pro-
posal, which had been accepted by
The United Mine workers as a basis
of settlement, as embodied in the
operators letter to the executive
yesterday, apparently left the
miners and operators as far from
an agreement as when their wage
negotiations were broken off in
Atlantic City on August 4.
No Predictions
No one would venture a prediC-
ton as to what the next move in
the situation would be, Whether
Governor Pinchot would make
further efforts to bring the two
sides together could not be learned.
Mr.. Pnchot, who is making a tour
OF inspection in the western part of
the state, declined TO comment on
the operators rejection of his plan
until he had received their letter.
| This was expected to be in his
hands today.
John L. Lewis, president Of the
! United Mine workers, declared tho
operators attitude did not repre-
sent zone whit of concession in tho

MARSHALL Will
REST AT SIDE
OF FOSTER son
Former Vice President to Be
Buried in Quiet, Beauti-
fui Cemetery.
BIZ Times Special


MARION, Ind, June 1.-The
family burial plot where the body
of Thomas r. Marshall is to lie is
in the beautiful I. o. o. F. Cemetery
here.
The remains of the former Vice
President will lie beside those of
his father, mother and little foster
son, Morrison Marshall, who died in
1919.
Although funeral arrangements
are incomplete, Marion is preparing
to show in full measure her par
ticipation in the national grief at the
passing OF a beloved Hoosier states
man.
The cemetery lies at the eastern
edge of the city. skirted on one side
by a boulevard, another by a tree
bordered rural highway and another
by one OF the most beautiful
stretches of the Mississinewa River
The willow and giant oak bordered
stream bends gracefully around the
north edge of the burial ground.
Great trees spread their branches
over the graves in the older part Of
the cemetery. The newer portion
is Handicapped along modern lines.
The old is laid out with graceful
drives much as the burial ground OF
any small, mid-western city.
1t is in this older section that
the Marshall plot lies. Modest

it wasn't merely his title that drew
the people.
Situation Unusual
Marshalls passing in Washington
has brought about the strange sit
uation where both the candidates of
the Democrats in 1912 and 1915,
have died in a retirement in the
capital only sixteen months apart.
Wilson was one Of the few ex-
Presidents who died here, and Mar
shall, one of the few Vice Presi-
dents. There is no record Of a con-
temporary President and Vice Presi-
dent dying in the Capital before.
Brief funeral services will be held
at the new Willard Hotel tomorrow
afternoon, and shortly thereafter the
body of former Vice President Mar

SAYINGS OF
MRS. SOLOMON
Helen Rowland.

VERILY, my Daughter,
prima donna is capricious
and a motor car is full of sur
prises-but WHO is so inconsist-
ent as a man in love?
Behold, when his lips are full
of praises and promises and pet
names, he, peradventure, meaneth
nothing.
But when he stitch apart and
is SILENT, he meaneth every
thing.
So long as thou takest him
lightly and regardest him as a
playmate, he taketh thee sesious-
ly and pursueth thee ardently.
But when he suspecteth thee
of falling in love with him, ne
fleeth in alright and barricadeth
himself behind curtain of
caution.
When thou soonest him and
causest him to suffer, he is
humber than a stage footman.
But when thou art responsive
and tender, he is colder than
restaurant soup and more coy
than a wild deer.
He calleth thee his Guiding
Star" and assureth thee that
thou art the One Intelligent and
Interesting Woman in world
full of dimwits.
Yet, in the next breath, he
mocketh at thine opinions, laugh
eth at thy reasoning, and an
swereth thine arguments with
baby talk and kisses.
He is blind to all thy real de-
fects and magnanimously for
giveth thy most glaring faults.
And shouldst thou break ALL of
the Ten Commandments, he would
defend thee stanchly.
Yet will he threaten to leave
thee, forever, because thou laugh

or playest the wrong - Il III

He admireth the curve of thy

Many persons are greatly as
tonished when told that gold and
silver and other metals are held
in dissolution in sea water. In
fact. iron is included among such
metals. Iron ships that sink to
the bottom are slowly dissolved,
so that the pictures often drawn
of the scenes that would be pre-
scented If the beds of the ocean
were brought to view are probably
very different from the reality.
The most striking exhibition OF
the hidden mineral contents Of
sea water is to be seen wherever
salt marshes" are commercially
eploited. Salt marshes, says NJ.
Berget, consist Of vast impe1ne-
able levels over which a thin
layer of sea water Is caused to
flow for the sake of facilitating
the evaporation.
These cubes show the size Of
the gold and silver bricks that

course he was awfully good look
ing. But it's no use
I've tried and TRIED. But it
seems as if the more I tried the
more he tried to aggravate and
humiliate me. He actually takes
pride in making me ridiculous. 1
don't dare ask my friends in any
more, because I know he'll seize
that opportunity to sneer at me.
He's coarse and common-com-
mon all through. For five years
I've worked to make him into
gentleman and you'd think he'd
be grateful for all I've done But
he actually hates me now. So
there simply isn't a thing left to
do but get a divorce"
Is it true? Yes. it's true. She
did try. just as she says. From
the day Of that first mad infatu-
alton, she has struggled constant
ly to make him over. His terrible
grammar. his loud laugh, his
amazing table manners, his rough
jokes-she has fought constantly
to change it all. She has told
him over and over how Real
Gentlemen should think and talk
and act. She has pointed out
Her Friends to him as models OF
decorum.
She even got him a position in
a wonderful architects office. He
liked to plan nasty, messy auto
mobiles-but there was no class
in work like that. Buildings
they were different She wouldn't
need to be ashamed If she could
say that she had married an
architect. And think of the
wider, more interesting life he
himself would lead.
So she urged and exhorted him.
She spared no pains to make a
good job of him. She picked his
friends. She chose his books
and socks, his shaving soap and
neckties.
But he would have none of it:
