NEW COAL MAN[?]N TOWN

Thomas Callahan/ Jr., arrived at the hospital in this city Wednesday evening at seven o’clock Mr. and Mrs. Callahan are greatly rejoicing over the arrival of this their first son. It is understood that his parents are planning to have the young ’ gentleman assume full control of the coal business now being managed by his father. It is understood that Mr. Kellner is not expecting much assistance from Mr. Callahan for some time owing to the fact that he feels that his time must be entirely devoted to the coal man. When asked the name of the son, Mr. Callahan said that it was really difficult to find a name which they thought was good enough for the youngster. The names now being most seriously considered are Pershing, Woodro#, Hamilton Lewis and dcAdoo. Mr. and Mrs. Callahan have a right to be mighty proud of their son and the Republican extends to them hearty congratulations.
