Mr.. Bates, living near Milton, at the east
ern edge of this county, gave birth to a
fine healthy child. The mother was sup.
posed to be getting along we'll but en- the
following day grew much worse, when Dr..
Hall, of Milton, was called in to relieve
her suffering. Nothing uncommon was
noticed by the doctor, who by the way,
prides himself On his skill in taking care Of
such cases. He sat down and waited
patiently for a few hours fo-
nature TO take its course, not knowing
that one child had been born twenty-eight
hours previous. The doctor was soon ex-

affairs by the appearance of a 6ne child

your correspondent has been at some pains
10 theirs the exact result As TO the de-
tails of the affair, they have been fully pub

repeat them. But one man was killed
Gu right; bis name was Ted Griffith. He
was first sufccated, and mule falling upon
him caused his death before he could be re-

Those who have died from the effects o.;
their injuries and foul sir inha led since be-
ing brought out are John Houston, who
lived but five hours William Pax and
James Rolando. Those badly burned and
otherwise supposed 10 be fatally Ljured are
JIM. Gibbs, Hugh Kerr eyed II years, J Ohm

The badly injured and burned who it is

The smothered, WHO have since been re-

badly injured by a premature blast just
previous 10 the explosion. In addition TO
these there is a number of others badly
burned or injured. Among these are Italian
Dane and German miners whose names
have not yet been Learned. But for the
fact that the explosion occurred at the reg
ular blasting hours when most of the men
had on their coats the casualties would
have been much greater. Ii is believed
that every person has been removed from
the mine and every effort is being made to
render all the injured as comfortable as
possible. II will be some days before the

Sedalia's Hotels.

There having SUCH howl gone up from
the diminutive Jefferson Ci'y sheets about
the inadequacy of Sedalia hotels to accom-
modate the travelling pubic, the BAZoo
deems it only simple justice alike TO his
city and the hotel propristors thereof, to
make plain statement of facts.
At the time which the Jefferson City so,
called newspapers refer TO there was
a wreck east Of this city ard
a delay of trsips from the North, south,
east e5d west, which caused a demand fer
commodatioDs, which our h0iel propri
etoTs could not foreses and hence. were not
prepared 10 meet. Besides this, un.o-tu-,
paely al the time, the Merchants hotel,
on account of slight m.suadersl snd!Dg
b-tween landlord and lessee, was Temporal
riIy closed, while the Jay
Gould hotel was UNDERGOING repairs.
Sedslia has four first-elass hotels, the
aggregate capacity OF which is about $50
rooms, besides numerous smaller hotels and
boarding houses, and as has bsen agtssted OF
numerous occasions rotahly, the ex-con
Tolerate re union, rrpub icen stste c5nven-
tiou and other large state association meet
iugs. She has always proven herself more
than adequate to the demand.
There is not city in the state outside
OF ST. Louis or Kansas City with as ample
and excellent hotel accommodations as
Sedalia, aud at such moderate rates.
