Springfield.--Shortage of coal In Springfield and vicinity is causing a serious situation. In addition to having a lightless city, so far as electric signs and show window illuminations are concerned, there is a possibility that the schools will be closed within a week and the wheels of the state government may cease to grind unless the shrinking supply at the state pow er house is replenished.

With better at 75 cents a pound and 150 pounds of It lying In a pile on the street with no claimants, looked like a big waste. The sewer on East Jef ferson street became clogged, and it was necessary to tear up the pavement and break into the sewer, when a mass of yellow fat was found, creamery nearby disclaimed it and as- - serted it must have been an accumula tion of grease from the kitchens of nearby hotels and restaurants. Chicago.--Coal miners all over the country will be working within ten days at increased wages and the public will pay the bill In higher prices. These were the predictions made by men in close touch with the fuel situation In Chicago. F. C. Honnold, secretary of the Illinois Coal Operators' association, sounded the keynote of the situation when he declared the fuel administration had refused to hear the case of the operators and that "the cabinet members are driven to a settlement by the bludgeon of organized labor that they are afraid to resist." "Whatever may be the terms of settlement," Mr. Honnold declared, "the cost must eventually be borne by the consumers." • * • -- Springfleld.77-T!iree hondred aridity- six cases of diphtheria and 361 'cases of scarlet ffever, a large majority of #hich are in Chicago, were reported to the state department of health within the week.

Vanishes From Map and Only Memory Remains of the Judge and His Rulings, •aa Antonio, Tex.--With Its foundation posts wabbling like old men's legs, its floors showing ugly gaping holes. Its porch roof shorn of the last lingering board, scraggy bits of what was once white paint hanging to the outer walls, and its door banging to a single rusty hinge--at Langtry, Tex., once known as Eagle's Nest--what remains of one of Texas' most famous old landmarks Is succumbing to wind and rain. It is the once proud seat of the "Law West of the Pecos"--the old home and saloon and throne where, not so many years ago. Judge Roy Bean lived and reigned supreme as dispenser of Justice and red eye liquor, and dared the world to Interfere with his game. But since Judge Bean went away there has been a great change. Perhaps It is just as well that he "cashed in"--as he himself probably would express It--before the days when nowhere In the whole of Texas can the traveler find a drop to drink. In the "Good Old Days." Many humorous and many semitragic stories regarding Judge Bean have been handed down by friends and relatives, many of whom are living in or adjacent to San Antonio today. It was in a day when enforcers of the law were few and far between, and when the men with the quickest trigger finger and * the steadiest nerve were monarchs of a large portion vf what they surveyed. Bean was justice of the peace of precinct No. 6 and the ranking representative of the law for hundreds of miles north, south, east and west of him. Equipped with a copy of the statutes of Ohio of the vintage of 1885, a sense of fair play, and a strong conviction of what the law should be even though it were not so written down in the books, he put up his sign: Judge Roy Bean, Justice of the Peace, Law West of the Pecos. In addition to being chief magistrate over everything "West of the Pecos," Judge Bean conducted a thirstquenching emporium typical of the day. The saloon was in the hall of justice, and from behind the bar came the voice of authority backed by a brace of perfectly good six-shooters. Judge Bean's "Law." Two Mexican men and women walked into Judge Bean's court one day and Informed him that they wanted a change; that they wanted to swap helpmeets. The Judge made diligent Inquiries of each of the four, found all to be of the same mind, charged each of the men $10 and a dozen bottles of beer and called It done. When a state official from Austin on a flying visit to "Eagle's Nest" complained to Judge Bean that he was exceeding his authority, explaining that divorces should be passed up to a higher court. Bean is alleged to have retorted: "Why, say I Have I ever butted Into your affairs? These people wanted to swap, they paid me for changln' 'em around, they're llvln' together pu'fectly happy, an' nobody 'round here has complained. Tou go on back to Austin an' handle your courts like One Pound Swiss Baby Has a Rival ! jboiidon.--That pound bahy born In Switzerland has a rival In Hammersmith, a London suburb.

It could 114 In the nurse's hand and was fed for the first fortnight from a fountain pen filler. The child now Is four years old and never has been 111 except for an occasional cold. you want to, but this Is out o' your Jurisdiction." Then there was Judge Bean's famous decision In ' the case of a man being tried for killing a Chinaman. The Judge, after a careful search through the statutes of Ohio, couldnt find a single word against killing Chinamen; therefore there was nothing to do but release the party who did the killing. Likewise the story of the Judge's method of disposing of the $60 In money found In the pockets of a dead Chinaman. A six-shooter also had been found on him, so the Judge fined the deceased $60 for carrying a deadly weapon. Harems Yield Young Boys and Girls Sold Into Captivity Being Rescued. Under Allied Rule Turks Are en Behavior and Kurds Are , Quiet. New York.--How 50,000 or more Armenian and Syrian children, stolen by Turks and Kurds and sold Into harems or Arab encampments, are being rescued from captivity and worse through the efforts of the near East relief, now that the near East is under allied rule, Is told by Rev. E. O. Jago, who has Just returned from western Asia. "It is no uncommon sight in Aleppo, Syria," says Mr. Jago. "to see scores of children brought in by the searching parties. The children are all dirty, ragged and starving, and many of them have been tattooed by their Arab masters. "Broken tearted mothers and sisters pace up and down the line of the rescued hoping to see their son or daughter or brother, stolen three or four years' ago. Many times there are happy reunions, but often the quest Is In vafn, and broken-hearted mothers seem to despair of ever seeing their loved ones again." An Important feature of Mr. Jago's work since the country was rescued from the fanatical domination of the Turks has been the recovery of these stolen children. From parents and friends all Information possible about the missing ones was obtained and this was sifted down and turned over to the British commandant of the district, who, in every Instance where the information was definite, has succeeded in recovering the stolen children. Among the rescued are many young girls whose fate In the harems has been too terrible to describe. Under the British regime In Ar> menia and that of the French in Syria the Turks are on their good behavior and in many cases are co-operating with the near East relief workers. Even the brutal Kurds, long the oppressors of the Armenians, are quiet, but those who know them best believe they are only waiting for the withdrawal of the allied forces for another orgy of murder and pillage upon the unoffending Christians. BOSNIA IS VERY HARD HIT Suffers Greatly in the Wake of the War. Faetoriea and Railroads Hurt by Up- ..Food and Clothes Coat High. Sarajevo, Bosnia.--Bosnia may be a long time recovering from the effects of tli« "'sr. Factory production ts almost at a standstill, railroad transportation Is Irregular and uncertain, stores are bare of stocks, tmports are much reduced, clothing and food are high in price, and there Is much Idleness among the people. The crops this year, however, are abundant and there is sufficient Food to meet ull needs. The German and Hungarian signs which formerly appeared above the store windows have given place to placards In Serbian, and Sarajevo has taken oh quite the appearance of a Serbian town. The Serbian inhabitants are of course quite content with the Belgrade government, but the Germans, Austrians and Turks are not quite so happy. There 1s a disposition, however, to accept conditions as they are and to hope for a resumption of the commercial activity and advantages which the people enjoyed at the hands of the Austrians. The friends of the Serbs and Jugo-Slavs hope that with time the Serbian government will be able to match the prosperity and progress which the Austrians and Germans brought to the country. Among the population America enjoys great prestige and respect. This is largely due to the timely help brought to the country by the American Red Cross and the United States food administration: Until the arrival of these relief ageUcies Americana had never before appeared in Bosnia In any considerable number. The presence of the officers of the Red Cross and the food administration has had a splendid moral and educational effect among the Bosnians. Much of the rancor and harsh feeling engendered by the war has been removed, nnd through the work of these Americans the larger part of the people now look upon the Uqteed State* as a friend, not as a foe. Money Scattered AbOut Town. Caldwell, Idaho.--More than $700 In $10 and $20 hills was found scattered around the streets of the city. J. A. Flannlgan of the Farmers' Equity was walking down one of the main streets with another man when he espied a $10 hank note. A short distance further he found a $20 hank note. Shortly after the report on this find several ranchers stumbled on some of the coveted bank notes. As a result of the find a large crowd of treasure seekers flocked to the street. No one seeins to know where the money came from. Order Means Big Shutdown of lndu» tries Throughout the Country--Retailers Cautioned on Distribution --Only Essentials to Be Served. Washington, Dec. 2.--Wartime restrictions on the consumption of coal were ordered into effect for the period of the present strike emergency. Fuel Administrator Garfield, acting in conjunction with the railroad administration, announced that only the industries included In the first five classes of the priority list established { during the war would be furnished coal, and the public utilities would i be asked to discontinue furnishing i power, heat and 'light to nonessential ' industries. I The industries to which coal will j be furnished will be railroads, coastwise and inland shipping, army and navy and other government departments, state and county departments and institutions, public utilities, including newspapers, and retail dealers supplying household consumers. State and local authorities, Dr. Garfield said, will be asked to co-operate, though the rationing of coal will be done through the regional coal committees set up by the railroad administration. Railroad administration officials conceded that the application of the order would mean an industrial shutdown of considerable magnitude, but declined to make a definite estimate. Industrial establishments operating from their own power plants, It was said, probably would have to stop when their present coal supply became exhausted. Industries operating on power supplied by public utility companies may continue operation unless the management 'of the public utility companies supplying them and the local authorities rule that they are nonessential. For the present the railroad administration will not , att&npt to lay down a rule as to what is an essential industry. "It Is necessary that coal shall be used only for essential, purposes," said Dr. Garfield's statement, explaining the government's action. "Public utilities consuming coal should discontinue to furnish power, heat and light to nonessential Industries and should only consume sufficient coal to produce enough light, power and heat to meet the actual urgent needs of the people. Advertising signs and displays of various kinds necessitating the use of coal should be curtailed and no coal should be distributed for such purpose. "Pursuant to this policy I have requested the railroad administration in the distribution of coal now or hereafter in its possession to limit distribution to these essential and urgent uses. As far as practicable until the tributlon of coal will be limited to conditions warrant a change, the disthe first five classes of the priority list. "Retail dealers who distribute coal for household requirements, heating hotels, buildings, hospitals, etc., should take every precaution to see that coal Is only delivered where it is absolutely required, and then only In such limited quantities that the supply may be distributed widely and prevent suffering. "The state and other local authorities can materially aid In Inspecting and supervising such distribution by retail dealers, and the United States government will be glad* to leave the supervision and control of such distribution by retail dealers entirely to any state, county or municipality which may make provision therefor. < "The distribution to the retail dealers must necessarily be administered by the railroad administration In pursuance of the orders already made by the United States fuel administration in carry ing out the priorities which have been prescribed under the" Lever act." 0No Has Landlord Who Refuses to Profiteer America's most remarkable landlord has been discovered at Akron.

French Soldiers Seek Office Cry "New Conditions, New Men," as They Stand for Election to Chamber Seats- Paris.--"For new conditions, new men," is the rallying cry of the former soldier element for the forthcoming parliamentary elections.
