COAL MOUNTAIN TREATED
LIKE A FEVER PATIENT.
sr<arful of Spontaneous Combustion,
Temperatura Taken Frequently.
ISarope is getting its coal supply
I'fcese days from the mines of West
Virginia. The coal Is shipped to Italy.
France. England and other countries
?hropgh the port of Norfolk.
During the year 1914 there were
shipped from this port 12,050,000 tons,
ithe biggest year in coal shipments in
the history of this port. The Norfolk
•tfjid Western railroad hauled to its
■Zi&era at Lambert's point 5,959,793 tons
firing the year, the Chesapeake and
<Tbio 3.221,732 tons at its piers, and
Virginia railway delivered 2.530.-
~j£s tons at its Sewell point piers.
The largest coal trains in the world
now pass through Norfolk. It is (.
<3aUy occurrence to see a train of 130
•ears, pulled by four locomotives, pass
through the outskirts of this city en
route to the coal piers at Lambert's
Bruint and Sewell point. The Vir
ginia railway has been operating spe
trains, and it has dumped 750.000
ferns in its yard at Sewell point. It is
:6£>oken of as the "black diamond moun
tain" by thousands of visitors who
i&ave seen it. It is guarded as careful
ty as Uncle Sam guards his naval sta
tions.
Every precaution is taken to prevent
asy one from tampering with or steal
ing it or throwing a match near H
Oke a patient with fever, the tempera
tare of this huge mountain is taken
rery two hours. A mammoth steel
r*>d with a tiny strip of thick glass,
-*trough which the mercury runs, is
Shoved down into the coal mountain
ii remain five, ten, fifteen minutes. If
he temperature is above a certain de
cree the work of cooling the coal ia
lesrun immediately. The danger is
pontaneous combustion. A number of
are employed, and steam
<&erricks are used to move portions of
tbe pile as may be necessary to keep
*ste temperature at a point of safety.
This mountain of coal is said to be
the property of W. P. Tams of West
Virginia. It took the Virginian rail
-way seven months to seenwulata it.

YOUNGEST WARRIOR IN
ALGERIAN COMMAND.
French Boy, Determined to Fight,
Takes Place With African Troops.
Search for the youngest soldier lias
result -d in the locating of Christian
du J >n i y. aged fourteen years, of
the Alee;i in cavalry lie is a son of
Lieutenant Colonel (lu Jonchay of the
cavalry iu<j grandson of General de
Soundis. who fought with distinction
In the war of IS7O and was killed in
December of that year at the battle of
Patay.
Not being able because of his age to
enlist in a French regiment. Christian,
who is strong and vigorous for his age.
went to Algeria and engaged in one of
the corps of cavalry. He is now at the
front and has taken part in several en
gagements, in which he has borne him
self valiantly.
I The youngest of the wounded is
■ Henri Derombler, aged thirteen. Young
Derombier. who was employed in the
i hospital at St. Nicholas, was allowed
to go out and help bring in the wound
ed under shell and shrapnel fire when
he himself was struck by the fragment
of a shell.
Charles Trottemont, aged thirteen, of
Nancy, who is the oldest of a large
family of children, declared when the
movement of troops began "there
should be at least one of each family
to defend France." so he followed the
I Fourteenth regiment from Toui when
i It passed through Nancy during the
! middle of August and was adapted by
: one of the companies of that regiment.
I with which he made the greatest pa?*
| of the campaign of Lorraine.
He was chiefly engaged in running
errands. Lamenting that he was un
able to handle a gun. he succeeded in
getting himself adopted by the Fourth
regiment of heavy artillery, which used
him chiefly to pass shells. Captain
Michelant, who commanded the bat
tery, had an artillery uniform made for
him and treated him in every respect
as a real soldier. He was able to avoif
putsuit of his relatives until, aftei
participating in so many battles, his
exploits disclosed his whereabouts, and
his familv promptly reclaimed him
from the army.
FOR CANNED ART LECTURES.
Boston Man Would Have Nickel In
Slot Phonographs In Museum.
Municipal nickel in the slot art lec
tures were advocated by Henry Turner
Bailey of Boston, prominent art au
thority and former supervisor of draw
ing in the public schools, at the Twen
tieth Century club's discussion of "The
Significance of Chinese Art."
"I would like to see installed in the
Boston Museum of Fine Arts." said!
Mr. Bailey, "a slot machine where,
upon the dropping of a coin, by phono
graphic reproduction I could get an ex
planation of the particular subject 1
wanted to understand and appreciate."
He declared that the museum author
ities should place the best specimen of '
Chinese pottery, for instance, in con
cealment. "Then in some conspicuous
place post directions telling us what to
look for to see what is artistic."

AMERICANS TO INSPECT
Prisoners' Camps In Belligerent Coun
tries Will Be Watched.
London, Feb. 5. —Sir Edward Grey,
British secretary of state for foreign
affairs, anuouncod in the house of
commons that the American govern
ment had submitted a scheme where
by American officials would keep
permanent touch with commandants
of prisoners' camps in Germany and
Great Britain and through the com
mandants with committees appointed
by the prisoners, with a view to im
proving the conditions of the prison
ers. Sir Edward promised to make
a further statement.
The foreign secretary's announce
ment was made in reply to a ques
\ion of Lord Charles Beresford, who
asked whether a member of the
American embassy in Berlin had been
nominated by Germany to inspect the
camps in England and whether Great
Britain would nominate a member of
the American embassy stall' in Lon
don to inspect and report on condi
tions in the German camps.
STUDIED THE BIRDS
And Louis Mouiliard Pointed the
Way to the Aeroplane.
THE FATHER OF AVIATION.
Pathetic Carjer of the Man Who Orig
inated the i heory of the Conquest
of the Air V/ith Machines That Would
Imitate the Soaring of Vultures.
The French-themselves masters of
the air—call Louis Mouiliard the father
of aviation, although he never flew.
Mouiliard wis a theorist. It is admit
ted today that his theories were sound,
although lie never put them Into
achieving form. Mouiliard wrote two
books. "The Empire of the Air" and
"Flight With Fixed Wings." Only the
first of these works appeared during
his lifetime, and that had a small cir
culation. But he pointed the way to
fly. and ten years after his death the
Wright brothers, following principles
he set down, proved that he had solv
ed the problem.
Mouiliard explained that to seek to
fly by imitating the beating of a bird's
wings was error; that, instead of try
ing this impossible feat, man should
imitate those birds which soar with
steady wings and avail themselves of
air currents. If Mouiliard had possess
ed money there is little doubt that he
would have demonstrated his theory,
as it has been successfuly proved.
The life of this remarkable man seems,
on superficial view, to have been a
failure. But his compatriots, recog
nizing bis real worth, set up a monu
ment to his memory at Heliopolis,
Egypt. He died in 1897. The story
of his life is pathetic.
Mouiliard was the son of a dyer c
Lyons. From boyhood he was fav
cinated by the flight of birds. Eo
managed to buy an eagle, which he
secreted In the family garret and
studied with an avid interest when
ever he could escape from his books
or work. Ho watched the bird's
movements, measured its wings and
studied it with infinite pains. And
when he had mastered the secret,
with the aid of his admiring sisters, he
built an aeroplane with cotton and
corset bones and determined himself to
fly.

Church, with a sheer cliff on one side,
