THE HAzLEToN DISASTER.
No More Eohics Rccovered-Two Hung

rians Said to be Missing.
 HAzLEToN. Pa, April 5.-Nothing has been developed up to a late hour at the Laurel Hill mine that would indicate a speedy recovery of the entombed men. Yesterday afternoon the men came upon a mule almost entirely covered with muck and slush. To the surprise of the men, it was still alive.
 Among the debris was also found the shirt and ccat worn by Richard Williams Monday morning. This would indicate that he had divestei himself of his clothing rSnd had endeavored to swim out
 It is now rumored that Williams, Trefn- bath and Hudson are not the only men en- tombed. Two Hungarian laborers are also missing. They have not been seen since the accident occurred, and it is believed they are the men seen by Harry Hawke to go under the water when he was coming out. A vigorous search has been insti- tuted for them, but so far without success.
 The mine officials still refuse to be in ter> iewed. They stoutly deny, however, that there are any more than three men still imprisoned.

NO MERCY TO BE SHOWN
Tennesseeans Aroused Over a
 Dastardly Act.
TERRIBLE CRIME OF TWO BROTHERS

They Entered a Secluded House, Drove Oh
 Neighbors on the Hunt-If Taken Alive
 They Win Probably be Burned At the
 Stake,
 GALLATIN, Tenn, April 5.-News of 6 most diabolical and revolting crime at Alexander has reached here and aroused the community to frenzy of excitement. George and John Evans went to the home of Jerry Shelton, who lives in a secluded place, and, at the point of A pistol, forced him to leave home Both of the men then assaulted his 17-year- old wife.
 Shelton gave the alarm, but when g crowd of citizens had collected and re- turned to the scene with Shelton the scoun- drels had fled
 The news spread rapidly from house to house, and the entire community was soon on the hunt
 It is hardly possible that the men will be taken alive as they are desperate and are heavily armed for astubborn resistance. They are now in dense forest near by and when encountered there will be a bloody fight.
 The woman is in such plight that she cannot give an account of the horrible affair. Her reason is dethroned and she talks wildly and hysterically of her fright full experience
 This last occurrence has added to the al | ready intiamed condition of the community l and has made it certain that the Evans brothers, if captured alive, will be giver l swift and sure death at the stake or at the end of a rope.

DYNAMITE; IN A TUG.
An Attempt to IslOw up a Boat Load of
 Non Union Men EuIIed


 NOn-Union Men Rolled.
 SAN FRANCIsCo, April 5.-An attempt has been made here to blow up the tug Ethel and Marion. The vessel has been eng aged for some time in taking non- union men from the dock to coasting vessels ly- ing in the stream. A dynamite cartridge was found in her machinery by the engineer. A fuse duly capped was attached and the slightest jar would have caused an explosion which would blow the little vessel into atoms Undoubtedly the plan was to have blown not only the tug into bits, but it was in. tended that the explosion should occur when the tug was carrying non-union sai lors to one of the vessels.
 |. The work is attributed tomembers of the Co; St Seaman's Union who have been en gagged in a battle with ship owners aud which has been most bitterly fought.

HOW CATS OFTEN SPREAD DISEASE
Mothers Should Teach Children Not to
Handle Strange Animals.

Since have spoken in defense Of the
dog. let me say something more with
relation 10 that other favorite household
companion of mantle cat | would
call your attention TO the fact that the
cat is beast far more useful to mankind
than the dog. Without the latter we
could get along, but if we had no cats
we should have a continual plague of
rats and mice. which would overrun the
cities and devour the crops and small
live stock Of the farmers.
at the same time you may set IL down
an indisPucable truth that the domestic
cat is prolific source of q great variety
Of diseases. It breeds them and dis
seminates them-skin troubles partic-
ularly. II carries about with it the con-
tagion of diphtheria, one Of the most IA
tai Of human complaints. and 1t Is seTi-
ously suspected Of helping TO SOW the
germs Of consumption. a trouble akin
to ringTorm which attacks the scalp and
causes the hair TO fall out is frequently
conveyed by cats. Likewise it is with
scarlet fever, which. when it Is IN
house, is always likely to be scattered
abroad by the pet pussies. of the e5tab-
hshment.
The way Of it Is this: When there is
sickness in a house, old cloths are apt TO
be used for various purposes. These are
commonly thrown afterward into some
out of the way place, like the corner of
q closet Suppose that there is tabby
about that is on the point Of bringing
into the world a litter Of kittens. Fe-
male cats are constantly having kittens,
as you know, being among the most pro-
hic Of animals She searches for a Sc
uuestered nook for her ACCOMPLISHMENT
and is likely to make her bed of just
such lot Of old rags as have described.
As natural consequence, not only is
the mother cat infected as to her fur
with the contagious disease, but all of
her kittens are likewise. The latter are
fondled by the children. Pathogenic
germs seem to find u most favorable
breeding ground in the hair Of cats. As
a result the complaint is spread. I'm
fortunately the infection is not limited
to the house 1t is spread abroad by the
cats, which are notorious stragglers.
Thus before many days have passed
there is an epidemic of scarlet fever or
what not in the neighborhood. Nobody
can imagine how it got about. Little
johnny dies of diphtheria, and nobody
dreams that he contracted it by picking
up strange cat.
Children have a way of picking up
cats and holding them TO their faces to
caress them. That accounts for many
cases of that very disagreeable disease
called ringworm. It is the same way
with other skin troubles that are con-
tagious. Cats as well as dogs are liza
bic to tuberculosis of the lungs. other
wise known as consumption. That they
communicate it to human beings is more
than suspected. Star.

A Louisville Dog Tia. Swcars.

A Louisville railroad man has dog
that distinguishes the days Of the week
and different railroad trains. On days
when Midget's owner makes his regular
trips the dog accompanies him to the
station, but never attempts to board the
train-just stays on the platform, an in
terested spectator, and wags his tail
cheerfully as the train moves out. On
other days and other trains-suburban
trains to Falkland or Pewee Valley
he hops aboard without hesitation, evil
IDENTIFY aware that the ride in prospect is
one that he may share. Midget swears,
too; swears like a pirate.
The family understand him. but they
report that his language is too terrible
to be repeated. When things don't go
to suit him, he retires under q bed or
sofa and lies there rolling OFF Oaths Of
fearful description for hours. a young
man who was attentive TO Midget's
young mistress unintentionally offended
him, but the dog got even. He actually
broke off the match. He knew the regu-
lar nights on which the youth appeared,
and at an early hour would ensconce
himself under the parlor sofa, from
which coign of vantage he would growl
forth such volleys of personal and pro
fame remarks that the prospective lover
became intimidated and ceased lis at
tentious. In recognition Of these serv-
ices Midget's master gave him beauti-
