Later Concerning the Colorado
Mine Explosion.

DENVER, January 26.-Twentv-three
more burned bodies were to-day recovered
from the Crested Butte mine, making fifty
seven in all. But two remain. These will
be recovered to-day. They were all found
in chamber No. and in the passage way in
the immediate vicinity. Many have arm
and legs broken, skulls crushed in, and
clothing burned, and in many cases that
drops off in rags when the body is moved.
The hair is burned from the heads and all
the skin burned from the face and other
exposed portions Of the body, leaving it an
utterly unrecognizable mass of raw and
bleeding flesh. The appearance of these
bodies is horrible beyond description, and it
is not likely that any Of them can be recog-
nized. Many of the faces have coal dust
ground into them until they are as black as
coal ITSELF To-day the company began the
erection of large frame building, where
the bodies will be placed and where the fu
neral services will be held. Crowds are
coming on every train and on snowshoes
from all the surrounding camps. The Col
orado Coal and Iron company, besides the
erection of the building spoken Of, will bear
all the funeral expenses and make ample
provision for the needy families Of the de-
ceased.
DENVER, January 2S. = The huge
morgue is nearly completed, and the bodies
are being taken there one at time on
seighs from the blacksmith shop, and
placed in rows on the floor of the morgue.
Sixteen bodies have been claimed by rela-
tives, to whom they will be shipped to-mor-

No Distinction in the Grave.

TRENTON, N. j., January 2S.-The
governor has sent message to the legisla-
ture reciting the refusal Of the Hackensack
cemetery company to allow the burial of a
colored man. The governor says it ought
not to be tolerated in this state, that cor
poration whose existence depends upon the
legislatures will, and whose property is
exempt from taxation because of its relig-
ious uses, should be allowed to make a dis
tinction between white and black men. The
governor closes by recommending the pass
age Of an act which shall make such refusal,
based on color, criminal offense, with
such penalty as shall prevent recurrence
Of such act.

remaining twenty y-five are unclaimed. The
funeral services of those who will be buried
at Crested Buttes will be held tomorrow,

Catholics in the afternoon. Rumors of
trouble have entirely died out, and tonight
the town is perfectly quiet. A special will

Utilizing Stale Bread.

The persistence shown by the Partisan
bakers in kee ping up the price of bread,
notwithstanding the & eat fall in the
price of -four, has drawn attention to
tho,coniraternity and brought out some
old facts in connection with the trade
In addition 10 the bakers proper there
are, it seems, a numter of secondhand
bakers in arts who trade in the broken
scraps which daily accumulate in all
large establishments as hotels and
colleges where bread is consumed on
q great scale. This refnse IL bought b
weight, the hest bits arc picked out and
sold TO the cheap restaurants, which
turn them to account in val ouS ways.
The bread soup and other culinary cen
coctions OH which customers are regalet
in the cheap restaurants, where dinner
of courses is to be had for 90 cents, art
indebted for portion of their ingredients
to this source Of supply. The SIMILAR
less profitable NOR els are baked secon
time and ground in mortar. Thu
powder is then sold to thepork butchers
who use it TO garn sh the surface of thu
hams and outlets which present such al
appeti ing appearance in their shol
window.

there lay floating in the ocean, several
miles off, an immense, irregular mass,
its top and points covered with snow,
and its center deep indigo coor This
was an iceberg, one OF the largest size,
as one of our men said, who had been in
the Northern ocean.
AS far as the eye could reach the sea
in every direction was Of a deep blue
color, the waves running high and fresh
and sparkling in the light; ami in the
midst lay this immense mountain island,
its cavities and valleys thrown into deep
shade, and its points and pinnacles
glittering in the Sun. All hands were
soon on deck looking at it, and admir-
ing in various ways its beauty AMI
grandeur, but no description en- give

with foam, covered its Ease with whit
crest; the laundering sound of tn,
cracking of the mass, and the broakm.
and tumbling down of huge pieces, to
gether with its nearness of approach
which added a slight element of fear
all combined to give it character o
true sublimity.
The main body Of the mass was as

was crusted With frozen foam, and, a

edges and top, its color shaded off fror
