Thaw Intends to return to the stage
this fall, despite the objections or her
husband and bis lawyers. The fol
lowing signed statement was made
by Harry K. Thaw at the Tombs to

"This story, like many others. Is
absolutely false, and has been start

Berkeley, Cal., July 31. Profes
sor John AduniH, who Is lecturing on
education at the university Bummci
school in a lecture yesterday ex
pressed himself as not In favor of
corporal punishment as a rule, either
by teachers or parents. He said:
"There are many parents who,
much to their dislike, punish their
children because tbey really think It
necessary for the child's own good
But they would do better to expend
the same energy and care that the
do in punishing, in looking out be
forehand for the causes of the child'!
badness. You may whip a child lnti
doing something or not doing some
thing, but he Is not convinced, hit
will Is not conquered, and the onl;
effect Is to make him want to dlsobe;
all the more the next time. It woulc
be better to let him do part of wba
be wants the first time, and avoid th
punishment and stirring up bis an
ger, and then the next time you wll
bave more influence on bis will.
"What we want to do Is to mak'
the child think he Is standing on hh
own will. When you have gottei
him to do the right thing, let bin
think he baa done It because b'
wanted to himself, not because yoi
made him do It. He will do the rlgh
thing easier next time."

San Franelr.ro, July 31. Alaska's
great coal fields, said to contain
enough fuel to supply the Unityd

Into the handH of a giant syndicate
of American corporations rivaling in
point of wealth the great Standard
Oil Company. This combine, which
consists of the Guggenheims of New
York, several financiers who are
backing the Pacific Steel Company,
the Pacific Coast Steamship Com
pany, Dr. H. Bruener of the North
Alaska Coal and Petroleum Com
pany and local capitalists, will com

year.
The establishment of a line of
steamers to carry coal from the
North to San Francisco will be one of
the first steps In this great enter
prise. In anticipation of the opening up
of the fields, the Pacific Coast Steam
ship Company has been reaching out
In all directions to get vessels which
can engage In the trade and at the
same time will Increase passenger
traffic accommodations to the North.
The new fields, from which the
combine will ship its coal are situated
In Alaska, close to the dividing line
between American territory and
Canada, and extend from Mount St

ent program, and harbors are to be
made at both places.
Already work has been com
menced upon the railroads which are
to run to the Martin islands and to
Kenitck, and considerable track has
been laid.
In the opinion of surveyors and ex
perienced coal miners there Is more
coal In this section of Alaska than in
Pennsylvania, Ohio and West Vir
ginia combined.
The 1'nlted States Government has
already mad a report to the effect
that the coal to lie found In the Far
Nqrth is better than the Pocahantaa
coal of West Virginia.
