MODERN MIRACLES.

If th« old brain has gone woosy, if you imagine that you have seen everything twice, if emotional ennui has the old heart dragging and the war has sort of brought on a personal obsession, pull yourself together and go over to the Grand opera house and see s modern miracle. You feel and everyone feels that the greatest outlage in the history of time has been ^perpetrated on a certain part of this 0 footstool of God's. We feel and know that this crime is calling to heaven for vengeance and, too, we know that

Its enormity has drawn from every citizen of this nation, three thousand smiles away, a pledge to cast our (strength and blood into the scale that justice may turn as the real inner heart of humanity and civilization directs.

Tales of atrocity and accumulated horrors and ravages? have been so profuse for four year that with a lot of folks the heart has become calloused. The old organ doesn't respond to the awful crescendo of agony and misery that comes from across the seas. Not that the spirit Is gone, but any repetition wears In time.

And it I3 "Hearts of the "World" that i Inundates our emotional processes anew. The slag floods off snd the soul quickens. We are back where we nnoe were, and vhere we know we nueht to be until this thing is settled unci settled right. It cleanses the surface of the soul so that its affinity for right Jjnd justice ftnd repugnance and hate for everything that is opposed to those functions truly. It adjusts the snental and spiritual fibre for the fresh •war purposes that are going to be demanded of us and therein does a great work. It is a resounding, reverberating answer to the question "Why do wf fight?" But no one asks that any more. jr Good old musketeers! Good old

Cuqkoo! One hopes that their notions of revenge and reprisals are most drastic and that, as the prophetic closing /scenes Intimate, their cup will overflow with fulfillment.

gard the coal supply as something that would in some way adjust itself. As compared with shipbuildng jinunition making and airplane production, the public has not given it serious consideration. Yet the president says a fuel shortage is now the gravest danger that confront! the country. That means that the coal miners have not kept pace with the shipbuilders, 1he munition makers and the airplane producers in carrying out the program set for them.

It Is not yet too late for the coal men to make up the shortage. They can only do it by steady work and greater efforts. Not alone the miners, but the operators as well, are called upon to make good the country's expectations. Failure to respond to the appeal made to them by the president would be an act of disloyalty, equivalent in its effects to the loss of many battles.

ANOTHER GERMAN DEFEAT.

Dispatches today say that the German papers are asking pointed ques tions about Lenina and Trotzky and expressing fears that "lectures and theories will hardly hold Russia as a dominion of Germany."

Rumors of what is happening in Russia have a way of coming true The revolution was rumored, and so was the counter revolution. The czar's death was reported several times, but finally the report proved true. There is abundant reason for thinking that the rumors of the downfall of Trotsky and Lenlne may presage the actual retirement of that pair of misrulers to territory where the Germans, Who made them possible, will have to take care of them.

The fact that a new counter revolution has cut off vast slices of Russian territory from Bolshevik control, which was only a rumored fact once, points to the belief, and hope, that Lenine and Trotzky are nearing the end of their ascendency. Much of Siberia is certainly free from them, and they have lost the best of the Arctic coast. The Ceecho-Slovaks wer® recently reported as in possession of Yekaterinburg, and the British foreign office has recently declared that it has been unable to keep track from day to day of what government is in control of many Russian cities and villages.

Taxes cannot be raised by a government which cannot hold its authority against a village revolution. No army can be held together in a country that is falling to pieces, and Lenine and Trotzky cannot maintain a following merely by telling their followers to help themselves to anything they want. This would be true at any time, but it is particularly true in a country which »n some parts is rapidly approaching a state where there is nothing that a hungry man wants.

THE STUDY OF GERMAN.

The school board of Boston has been collecting pronouncements on the study of German In the schools. Two of the most notable the board has given out for publication. They are from President Wild, of Williams college, and from the French inspector geheral of education. They both contend that the study of German is not only still necessary in the arts, literature and science, but that it is an ecmonomic need to enable the world to better acquaint itself with German methods and propaganda after the war.

One would ordinarily suppose that the French people would banish the study of German and everything relating thereto. But the inspector general of education in France advises the Boston school board that this is not. the case. The French attitude is expressed in his letter as follows: "Today less than evpr should there be ignorance of Germany. One mu.st first study her on the spot, follow her economic evolution and the development of her social institutions, the movement of her associations, the instruction given in her universities. One must watch over all the manifestations of her activity, and. in order to be 'exact, our information mu.st be based on a knowledge of the German language. If tfe are ignorant of German, we do not know Germany, or, again, what is more serious still, we shall only know and see of her what she wishes to shew us. She will appear generous .humanitarian, and pacifist, and will conceal, under the veneer of an innocent good nature, her moral hideousness. which, when she reveals herself, revolts the human conscience. "When peace ts signed, the Germans must be watched at home, but they must also be watched here with us. What makes the strength of Germany

is above all the manner in which she has known how to establish herself in all countries. Have France, England and America been as attentive to the expansion of Germany and the intrigues of her agents? It has required the Teutonic misdeeds in America, the propaganda in Ireland, Italy, Russia and France even to open our eyes. Do not let us hope to raise a wall which will protect from attempts at invasion on the part of Germany. She will have abroad her associations, churches, lodges, choral societies, patronal or workingmen's syndicates who will all prepare for the next war. It would be culpable not to speak the language of all these artisans of a powerful country like Germany, for one must understand what they say, read what they write, and endeavor to learn what they think."

There seems to be a general disposition to accept the prevailing heat with philosophical resignation. This is a fortunate thing for the weatherman, the Iceman and the general sufferer. There is even a tendency to treat the ambitious mercury-in-the-tube with derision and mockerjr.

Possibly we may accept this caleriedefying attitude as proof of the fact that our recollection of the discomforts of the fighting men abroad outweighs all selfish interest in milder afflictions. Anyway, the humorous attitude of the public is attested by numerous stories based upon the rweltering spell. A New England editor tells of a noted wooden nutmegger, who has made

It has remained, however, for a Connecticut scribe to tell the best hot weather story of the season—a story in which clams along the shore at low tide became overheated and exploded with such continuous and startling detonations that the nearby inhabitants, believing the enemy's fleet was bombarding the coast, hastily took flight for the interior.

TEERE HAUTE TRIBUNE.

STOCK OF WHISKEY IS HIED FROM HOTEL

Frank Yates, Saloonman, Charged With Being the Source of Supply For Contraband.

The source of supply of liquor which has been reported to have been running freely at the Keith hotel for the last several weeks, and which the police have been unable to locate before, is believed to have been discovered Tuesday night with the arrest of Frank Yates, 62 years old, who was taken into custody at, the hotel by Mayor Charles R. Hunter's bone-dry squad Tuesday night. Four cases of whiskey in pint and half-pint bottles were found in Yatea' room in the hotel, where it is believed it was kept for unlawful purposes. Walter Hall, owner of the hotel, who was arrested Tuesday morning when a gallon of wet goods ars alleged to have been found in his room, was re-arrested with Yatea, and both were arraigned in City Court Wednesday morning on charges of violating the state liquor law. Both bad their cases continued.

It Is the belief of the police that Yates,

member of the Yates

& Sullivan firm at 669 Wabash avenue, has been supplying the liquor to the hotel in small amounts for some time, and that when search of the place was made the base of supply was located elsewhere and that the stock was replenished by Yates when necessary. Hall, the owner of the place, was arrigned previously on a charge of violating the state liquor law.

Shafer Wednesday morning, and hl3 case was continued.

WILL DELAY PAVING.

Proposed Improvement Likely To Go Over For Present. The work of paving North Seventh street, Lafayette avenue and North Thirteenth street, over which the council deadlocked at the last meeting on account of a disagreement whether concrete or brick was to be used in the work, will probably be delayed until after the war, in keeping with the government wishes in. regard to paving.

The bids for the work were advertised 10 days ago, and as required by the statutes 10 days after bids have been received an appropriation must be made to cover the expense of such work as has been sanctioned by the council. The council being deadlocked over the material to be used failed to make an appropriation until they knew what was to be used, and therefore the entire work is being held up.

It was expected that the council would be called in special session, either Tuesday or Wednesday nights. No meeting was held Tuesday night, and none has been called for Wednesday niKht, which means that the 10day period will expire at midnight tonight, and if the work is to be done the bids will have to be readvertised and an appropriation voted by the council. An appropriation of $16,000 was asked at the last meeting to cover the work.

DRAFT EVADER HELD.

John Johnson. 24 years old, was picked up Tuesday night at Twentyfifth street and Fruitridge avenue by the local police. He did not have a registration card and after being examined by Captain Jones was sent to jail to await a federal investigation of his case. He gave his home as Indianapolis and said that he was going to St. Louis.

William Myles, who was arrested Monday night at his garage, at Lafayette and Buckeye avenues, on a charge of permitting gaming to be carried on in his place, was acquitted Tuesday afternoon in City Court by Special Judge A. Z. Thomas. Pat Lawler, a local Jitney driver, swore that he had lost $175 in the Myles place on Sunday, and another witness testified that he had been a witness to the game. Three other men called In by the defense swore that Lawler had not been at the garage on Sunday.

Henry Nolen, 33 years old, colored, was arraigned in City Court Wednesday morning on a charge of violating the state liquor law. Nolen was arrested at his home, 109 Eagle street, Tuesday night by Mayor Hunter's bone-dry squad in company with his wife, Lulu Nolen, known as Lulu Brown, and both were taken to police headquarters. After being examined by Captain VanCleave, the woman was released to appear as a witness against Nolen, and the latter was sent to Jail charged with the unlawful possession of intoxicating liquor.

UNITED

OF

MINERS JEALOUS OF TIB FOOD

Scotch and French and Others Eager To Do Their Bit In This Regard.

Coal mitiers are demonstrating their patriotism not alone by an intensive effort to hoist a maximum of coal, but they also are entering Into co-operating with the food administration in the conservation of wheat and meat, in a most gratifying manner. This is the report brought to John H. Ahlgren, food administrator, by J. D. Sickles, proprietor of a popular eating house, patronized principally by miners, at Bicknell, in the heart of the Indiana coal field.

Mr. Sickles informed Mr. Ahlgren that all state.mentB that because of the fact that they are earning unprecedented wages the miners have persisted in buying and eating all the meat, wheat and sweet stuff they could secure, either legitimately or In vio la tion of the federal food regulations, are Without fundation, at least so far as the Bicknell field Is concerned. "Whenever a new regulation comes to me," said Mr. Sickles, "I Just post it in a conspicuous place. I call the attention of the miners to the official order and they simply say 'All right, if that will help win the war, we're for it,' and they never make a protest or complaint. They have voluntarily done without manv of the things they have been accustomed to, in the belief that by so doing they were helping to win the war."

Mr. Sickles says Bicknell Is proud of the splendid record being made by the miners, most of wh^m he says are of Scotch and French descent.

Through Mr. Sickles, Mr. Ahlgren sent a word of congratulations and encouragement to the miners, whose loyalty, the food head declares, has been one of the most Inspiring features of the work of food conservation in Indiana.

SUES FOR DAMAGES.

Lena Nash, as administratrix, yesterday filed suit in Superior Court against Thomas D. Heed, receiver for the Chicago & Eastern Illinois Railroad company, for $10,000 damages for the death of John L. Nash, which she alleges occurred through the failure of the defendant to obey the slow ordinance of Wellington, 111. NSash was working .Tune 14 as brakeman on a freight train that was standing on a siding at Wellington. He was standing on the track of the main line, signaling the engineer when a fast train hit him.
