All six cities waived the 30-dav notice legally required trom utility companies and approved the commission's order.

Explaining reneo in Mr Hof 1 man stated that the natural gas contains about 1.020 British Thermal units per cubic foot, in compar. ison with the 800 U. now being serviced to local gas users through the mixing of artificial and natural eases. The natural gas therefore is hotter than the mixed gas and user? will not be required to turn on as much as usual. Asked about the cffeet this would have on the local plant.

For the first time this year, hail fell in Jacksonville yesterday afternoon about five o'clock during the heavy of rain which visited this city. The stones which fell here were not very plentiful but were of a size larger than we commonly see here. Farther the northeast, from which direction the rain came, the hailstorm was rather severe.

At Literberry. it was reported that the hailstorm lasted almost one-half hour anri that the ground was covered A great many of the stones were to be as large as guinea eggs and very I irretualr in shape ith Jagged edges. Gardens and the corn suffered to some but no great damace was ported The hail was accompanied by heavy rain. Alexander also reported a hailstorm which lasted for several minutes, covering the ground with unsuaily large i stones while a heavy rain fell. Vegetable and flower gardens were damaged and the corn was said to have suffered slightly That the damage was slight is probably due to the fact i that rain and hall was not accom- panied by wind.

Details of the scheme were sent out by the Hinsdale Chamber of Commerce urgim men in other cfties to be on guard for the new evil.

Those v. ho work the racket watch the mailmen on their daily rounds, and determine when a list of statements are mailed out by business bv watching the mail boxes. It is comparatively a simple matter, although a serious one if caught, to pick one of the bills out of the mail box. The statement then is opened, and the amount of the bill noted A check is prepared covering the amount of the bill, plus a commission, which is as much as the racke- teeer thinks he can get. The check is signed with the name carried at the lop of the statement, and presented at the store which mailed the bill for payment.

The amount paid out bv the store resolves itself into a loss of the amount paid over the amount of the statement The practice has grown in big proportions in some cities, but it is hoped that a littIf publicity will warn the business men of the new evil, and cause those who are working the game to lose heart R00DH0USE CHURCH PLANS BIG PROGRAM This may be one of the last pictures to be taken of the glamorous Greta Garbo in this country.

The board is determined to make a test case of Ihe present controversy. If it Is compelled to close, the speaker said, it will simply mean that the middle west will get its market thru Winnipeg. where there is no war on the board of trade and no tax on grain trading. The speaker said the grain firm by which he Is employed will give the government $100,000 a year in taxes under the new rulings It costs $1,500 a month for leased wire tax and $500 a month on long distance calls.

The tax on trades by simulators and grain men who want to hedge their holdings is operating to retard business, he said. A bull, Mr. Cavanagh said, is not worth anything to the market after he buys. He is in fact a potential bear, because he must sell sooner or later, and the sale tend to reduce the price. On the other hand, a bear, the man who sells shoit.
