1.-THE DEVILS CAUsEwAY."

A News representative took trip
over the Devils Causeway" one day
this week. 1t is a pretty good cause
way, too. The route TO the new depot
is north on Military street to North
street. west on North street five and
one.half blocks TO Willow street (the
township road) thence north 10 Lo-
Gust street. Taking the Baxter Bank
as being the center of business, and 1t
really is, there being twenty-seven
places of business north of il and
twenty seven places of business south
of il, the depot is thirteen blocks from
tho center of business The distance
from the Baxter Bank to the old de-
pot was eight blocks. The new depot
is therefore five blocks farther away
from the center of business than was
the old one. But we started out to
tell about the Devils Causeway."
The city had the street leading to the
new depot brought to grade and the
Kansas City, Fort Scott and Memphis
Railway company has put l25 car
loads Of Short Greek gravel on il. The
gravel was put on sixteen feet wide
and six inches deep. When the gravel
shall have been thoroughly worked
down that street will be the best in the
city. But this is not all that the rail-
way company has done. 1t has put
down first class sidewalk from
Springs park to the new depot, dis
lance of 3,420 feet. The walk is made
of heavy cypress planks 2xl2 inches,
one on either side. which are sup
ported by cross ties of the same kind
of material five inches square and
about four feet apart. The space be-
tween these planks has been filed in
with Short Greek jig sand. Twenty
car loads were required for the side
walks alone. The length Of street
graveled by the railway company is
1920 feet. The work on that street
has cost the city about $500, while the
work done by the railroad company
has cost it more than $500. We
think the city has gotten $4,000 street
pretty cheap. A good street TO the de-
pot is an absolute necessity, and we
have good one, one that will last and
get better as it grows older. That
street is Il credit 10 the city and it adds
much to the appearance of that part Of
town through which 1t runs.
The depot has been put in first class
shape and presents a very inviting APP
pearance.
The work done on the streets this
year has been ordinarily we'll done.
The work done in former years, or
much of it at least, would better have
been left undont. Baxter Springs has
the best streets of any city of its size
in the West, and our people should
feel especially proud of that portion of
them which has been through spirit
of sclfishness and petty spite dubbed
the "Devil's Causeway." 1t would
certainly be an economical and BUSH
ness like move on the part of the city,
if il were possible to do so, to secure
the grading and graveling of more Of
its streets on the same conditions.

Three Lives Lost at the Laurel Hill Col
liery at Hazleton.
HAzLEToN, Pa, April Another mine
horror occurred yesterday just on the out
side of this city. The mine is known as
Laurel Hill, and is operated by Pardee
Brothers. The nature of the accident was
almost repetition of the Jeanesville dis
Rster of two years ago. when eighteen men
were drowned.
The accident was caused by David
Williams firing blast in No. 10. Immed-
lately after the blast went off a terrible
roar was heard and an immense body of
water rushed down No. 10 breast, filling it
10 the roof. Williams was caught in the
flood and undoubtedly perished.
It has been definitely ascertained that
three men are in the mine They are
Thomas Hudson, W. L. Trembath and
Richard Williams The latter is dead be.
yond doubt. There is faint possibility
that the other two may be rescued alive.
HAzLETON, Pa, April 6.-The chambers
worked by the missing miners, Williams,
Trembath and Hudson, were examined
yesterday afternoon by the rescurers, but
no trace OF the men was found. The hope
Of finding either Of them alive is gradually
fading, 1t is supposed that they were car
ried back towards the face Of the gangway
by the rush Of water and slush.

Ten Miners sunocated by smoke-In

SHAMoKIN, Pa, April s.-By the ex
plosion Of a lamp in the hands of Hun.
garian miner ten men lost their lives at
the Nelson shaft, near this place, on Satur.
day. The dead are: Joseph Bortrax, single;
John Gray, married; John Burtt, marriedi
Frederick GintsF, single Frank Shupis,
single; Nicholas Dutah, married.; John
Ryan, single; James Brennan, single; John
Robel, married; Michael Brennan, single,
The III fated miners were residents Of Sha.
mokin and Springfield, small village
adjoining the borough
The burning oil set fire to the roof Of the
mine, and the efforts of the miners to eX-
tinguish the flames were unavailing owing
to the inadequate supply Of water. An
airway shaft connects the No. 10 vein with
the red ash vein which is situated di
rectly over the former one.
Hurriedly notifying the miners on this
lift the engineer was signaled and the
flight to the surface commenced. Once out
some Of the men thought of the air pas
sage leading to the red ash vein, and knew
that were the occupants not notified some
would surely die. A gallant band Of res
ouers was lowered, and when the cage
stopped Ft the red ash vein, 500 feet from
the surface, the men found the tunnel
filled with smoke which had come mp from
the lower level. A couple Of rescuers
jumped of the cage and tried to walk
through the smoke, which grew densei
every minute A few dead mules were
stumbled over, and the men reluctantly
retreated and returned to the surface
aware that If anyone was in the tunnel he
could not escape, AS there were no exits al
this particular side of the lift,
The cage was again lowered and a force
Of men started in to explore the tunnel. II
was risky work, as sulphur explosion
was imminent. With CHEEKY words Il
each other they pressed forward and finally
reached two corpses wrapped in eact
| others arms. They were the bodies Of thi
Brennan brothers. One dozen yards fur
ther on lay John Ryan. He was dead
Three feet away were the remains o.
shupis and Ginter. The grewsome search
continued until every part of the vein hat
been explored, ten dead men being the to
tai find. The mine is still on fire
