BUY YOUR COAL; COUNTRY FACES FUEL SHORTAGE
Mine Workers Warn Public to Buy Now or Freeze Next Winter.
INDIANAPOLIS, April 17. Just
now, when the coal mines should be working to their utmost capacity and the output of coal should be at Jta heaviest point, Indiana coal mines are
working only about half time and pro
ducing only about half as much coal as they mlsht produce. And not only Is this true of the Indiana mines, but It is true, also, of mines in Ohio, Pennsylvania, West Virginia, Illinois, Colorado and many other coal-prottucing states. It Is this fact that causes William Green, secretary-treasurer of the United Mine Workers of America; E. I. Lewis, chairman of the Indiana public service commission, and John A. George, president of the Indianapolis Coal Company, to agree, In separate interviews, that there is a coal famine in prospect for -next winter that will make last winter's coal shortage fade Into Insignificance. ' Prospect Alarming. These men all said that the prospect Is actually alarming, and that unless relief comes immediately there will be untold suffering among the people, for they will be without heat in their homes. The United Mine Workers, sent a warning telegram to H. A. Garfield, federal fuel administrator, pointing out to him the seriousness of the situation. It was evident from a careful reading of that telegram that the miners foresee the crisis that is pending and that they do not propose to be in a position where Garfield or any one else can place any of the blame on
them when the crisis comes. In other words. It was a good exhibition of "getting from under" at the right time. If the ax falls as a result of a coal famine
next winter, the miners do not propose
to be under the ax when the blade bits.

YPRES SECTOR
Continued From Page One. southwest, the Germans drove the
British from the high ground at the southern tip of the Messines-Pass-
chendaele ridge which extends for 14 miles from Wulverghem to Passchendaele in a northeasterly direction. From Wulverghem to Wytscbaete is two and one-half miles. Ypres lies four miles directly north of Wytschaete and between them are the heights of Klein Zillebeke and Observatory Ridge which are equal in height to Wytscbaete, 60 metres. To wipe out the Ypres salient the Germans must gain more of the long ridge and must cut the railroad from Hazebrouck to Ypres, which is one of the main supply lines to the British lines east and northeast of Ypres. Apparently they are attempting to reach the railroad and are engaging the British heavily at Meteren, west of Ballleul, and four miles east of the railroad and six miles east-northeast of Hazebrouck. Directly west from Wytschaete and north from Bailleul is the height of Mount Kemmel, 156 metres, which is the highest point In this area. But before the enemy can cut the railroad and gain additional heights the British may retire or an allied counter-attack may be hurled against the German lines. Hun Efforts Repulsed. On other parts of the front from Wytschaete to Givencby the British have repulsed German efforts, especially around Merville, the center of the line. German attacks have broken out south of Arras. The British repulsed an attack there near Bcyelles. To the south around Albert and across the Somme the German artillery fire has increased, The enemy bombardment is violent In the Montdidier sector but no infantry operations have developed. On the American sector around St. Mihiel the weather has been unfavorable for three days, but the Germans have not repeated their attacks of last week. Near the Apremont forest, east of St. Mihiel, American patrols have crossed no man's land and reached the German barbed wire without molestation. East of the American sector near the Bois le Petre the French have repulsed German efforts. In Macedonia northeast of Salonlki the Bulgarians have been "driven from about ten villages along a front of fifteen miles from the left bank of the Struma northwest from Lake Tahinos. Greek and British troops participated In the operation. Prisoners were taken and severe losses inflicted on the enemy.

The Rev, and Mrs. Luke Woodward of Fountain City, celebrated the sixtyfifth anniversary of their marriage Sunday in the Friends church at Fountain City. Rev, Mr, Woodard is a prominent minister in the Friends Yearly Meeting.
As they were married by the
Friends ceremony they were request
ed to repeat that ceremony just as they did In the West Grove meeting
of Friends near Centerville 65 years
ago. Mrs. Woodard was a member of
that meetlag. The ceremony was re
peated Sunday at the close of the meeting after Rev. Mr. Woodard had
explained the details of the require
ments of the Friends' discipline. The pastor then requested those In attendance to come forward and take the bands of the bride and groom and express their congratulations. Their son, Leander Woodard, and wife, and their daughter, Alice Woodard, and I. P. Hunt, were with them
at dinner, and In the afternoon a
number of friends called to whom
Rev. Mr. Woodard read the following
poem which he had written for the occasion: 18531918 'Twas five and sixty years ago today We crossed the threshold of our married life, A mutual exchange, each gave self away. The one a husband gained, and one a wife. Loving and faithful was the nuptial vow And covenant that bound our, future then, Loving and faithful is the record now. And what we promised to be we have been. It was faith's venture on an untried But, oh! It was not all experiment. Love triumphed in its sweet captivity, Captive and captor were alike content. What has transpired since eighteen-fifty-three, Was past belief it some seer had foretold.

good health and free from disease. "Breathing exercises for the lungs, abdominal exercises for the stomach, kidneys, intestines, and liver, are adapted for health and a long life. Any working man who will take about twelve minutes of these kind of fTrHRM each dav will find that he

IRISH TO BE
Continued From Page One. Premier Lloyd George said he was
afraid It was impossible to argue with those who believe it a matter for con
gratulation that though an army of five millions had retired from the alliances, the two or three nations that remained had been able to put up such a light as .they had until the great American republic came in. Replying to Sir Edward Carson's criticism, the' premier said that if it had been merely a matter of a year or two, possibly no grave consequences would have arisen for Ireland, but what had happened bad shown that if the war was prolonged, a continuation of the state of suspense was a matter of vital interest, not merely to Ireland, but to the empire. Germans Call More. In introducing the man-power bill, he said, the government had considered nothing but the best means for prosecuting the war. Tbey were confronted with a need for more men because the Germans had Just summoned to the colors another 550,000 men for training. Great Britain must make ready for them and, therefore, the government had bad to introduce a measure of the most drastic character. Nobody would deny the great emergency and the government Included Ireland reluctantly and only because they were convinced that there would be a great sense of injustice and resentment at the carrying out of this measure unless Ireland were included.
The premier declared that no fair analogy could be drawn between the application of the present bill to Ireland and the attempt to tax the American colonies against their will, because in the latter case it was a matter of taxation without representation, and further, no measure of self government was claimed by any responsible body representing Ireland In the house. He asked if it ever had been contended that questions bearing upon thi organization of the army and navy and defence of the country and the empire should be entrusted to any parliament except the imperial parliament Regarding the claim that Irish consent should be obtained, the same argument, he said, could be applied to Wales or Scotland. He added that both conscription and the home rule bill must be taken on their merits. Sir Edward Carson, the Ulster lead
er, said he would continue to support the man-power bill, adding:
