Entombed in An Old Tunnel.

H. B. Nellie, late Superintendent of
the San Geronimo mine, in Sonora,
Mexico, has met with tragic death.
While preparing to pay off the en-
ployes the building in which his office
was located suddenly sunk into the
Garth and disappeared. 1t seems that
the office stood on ground just above an
old tunnel that had been driven into
the hill many years ago, by the Jesuit
priests, but it was generally supposed
that there was not the slightest danger
of it caving. After several hours hard
work the body of tn, superinten dent
was removed from the debris several
hundred feet below tho surface OF the
earth. Il Times-D 'mocrat.

The Lion Among the YlowerA

Here In this gardsn-nook alone,
Lies an old lion Of gray stone
Once, In the long gone golden hours,
A lordly lion, proud In state,
The guardian Of mansion-gate--
Now he los low among the flowers.
Then, oft he saw the shining doors,
Heard light feet fall on festal floors,
Heard music wake Its witcning din;
Then danced beneath the torches blazs
The knights and ladies of old days,
While he watched over all within
Now, he lies here; in his old age
Cast out rejected, by the rage
or time down-beaten, broken Scared,
An old gray lion; yet not less
A lion In his feebleness-
One thing is left him still to guard
He guards it well, by night and day,
In those great PAWS of granite gray,
In the strong shelter Of his breast;
No man shall serve him yet with scorn,
Though an old lion thus folloyn,
And all he guards-a robins nest

The Southern Manufacturers say that there
Is no Squeeze.
CHATTANOOGA, Tenn, May 3l.-The
Trad.smon tomorrow will contain letters
from leading Southern iron masters in
reference to the recent cut in prices
made by the Thomas Iron Company, Of
New York and the Lehigh Valley, on
No. ! anthracite.
The letters are from producers whose
furnace yield is at the rate OF 100000
tons per year and from brokers who
handle five.sixths Of the entire Southern
product. They agree that the effect on
Southern iron will not be serious, rs the
cut merely brings anthracite to the
price ut which Southern No. has been
selling in New York. All agree that
the cut was made TO meet the views OF
Eastern consumers and not TO squeeze
out Southern iron from the Eastern
market.
One Southern master says Southern
No. can be sold at profit in Philadel-
phia and New York at Sl2 so, freight
added, which would bring the gross
price ut those points to $l7 and Sl7 SO,
being 81 to 81 80 below the cut quotation
OF anthracite. One OF the largest deal
ers attributes most Of the demoroiiza.
ton to the multitude OF agents engaged
in pushing sales upon consumers, and
several consider the depression in iron
due to the tariifdebate. All express the
belief that prices are weak, hut think
bottom will be reached in June and that
prices will sharply revive in July.
