C, May 3L-- The eighth week of the coal strike opened with a derided increase in production. The returns so far received indicate an output of soft coal close to five million tuna. Production of anthracite, however, remains practically zero. Final reports for the seventh weekof the etrike (May 15th to 20th) show an output of 4,472,000 ons of bituminous coal and 8000 tons of anthracite, a total of 4,480,000 tons.

The increase during the present week (May 22d to 27th) j' may be judged from this fact that tbe loadings on Monday exeeeded by 652 ears the highest figure previously reported since the strike began. A further increase on Tuesday carried the loadings above the fifteen thousand--' ear mark, and the total for the first four days of the week exceeds by 11 per cent the corresponding period of last week. It is expected therefore PRICE, IflAN that final returns will show an output not far from five million tons. The increase is largely in response to higher railprices and more active demand, ing into production mines which have hitherto neen working only part-tim- e in the districts not affected by the strike.

Is the common privilege of us all, and will be celebrated as long as gratitude exists and flowers bloom." There Is some doubt as to who deserves the honor for having first suggested a memorial day. At least a dozen different women of the South have claimed It Mrs. Sue Lsndon Vaughn la often credited with having first ex It southern women in strewing with ers the Confederate graves In Vicksburg.

In those days of terrible poverty there was no money for flowers or carriages, but the women gathered wild flowers from the woods and at the appointed time they walked, hearing their wreaths In their arms, two miles to the cemetery. The South was under martial law and public speaking was prohibited, so Instead of orations and eulogies there was a simple service of song and prayer, in which many old slaves participated. After that the flowers wers put upon the graves. mothers Little did the tender-hearteof the South think of the mighty fruit their action would bear when, in the darkest days of reconstruction, with hearts lileedlng over their own losses and overflowing with compassion for their bereft sisters of the North, they scattered their garlands alike over the mounds of the Blue and the Gray.
