DEATH in A MINE.
Negligence Of q Well Known Rule Causes
Five Deaths.

Negligence Of Well Known Rule Causes
Five Deaths.
One workman dead and four others closed
in the mine, with all avenues OF escape cut
of and the most disastrous mine fire ever
known in the anthracite coal fields raging at
the Luke Fidler colliery, shamokin, Pa, is
the result In brief OF car penter's negligence.
Fifty-hve other workmen who were In the
mine at the time Of the accident had thrilling
escapes. The four men who are still missing
have been smothered before this.
The fire started In the air way OF No. shaft
late Tuesday night and Irving Burlington
whom the colliery officials hold responsible
for the disaster, Ia dead. His body was
not burned, as death was due to suffocation.
George Brown, u miner, and his Polish helper
Anthony Beberttik; Robert, q boy driver from
Luke Fidler and another Polish lsborer are
In the mine, and no hope is entertained Of re-
covering them. The mine is a mass Of flames
and cannot be approached from any direc-
tion.
The officers OF the mine say that Irwin Buff
flngton, carpenter, lit his naked lamp and
set fire to the timber and thus the flame
spread. Burlington might have escaped but
lost his life while trying to get a pair Of gum
boots. Three relief parties have been formed
and the sixty imprisoned n::rescued
through No. 3 air way on the mountain.
1t has been decided to drown out the fire,
but 1t will require six weeks to MI the inside
workings with water. Operations cannot be
resumed at this mine for at least two years
1t employed 800 men and boys, and its pay
roll averaged $4,000 per month.

other pills. Hence, their great popularity
with sufferers from habitual constipation
piles and their attendant discomfort and
manifold arrangements. The Pellets I"
are purely vegetable and perfectly harmless
in any condition of the system. No care is
required while using them; they do not
interfere with the diet habits or occupa-
tion, and produce no pain, gripping or shock
to the system. They act in mild, easy and
natural way and there is no reaction after
ward. Their help lasts.
The Pellets cure bliousness, sick and
bilious headache, dizziness, costiveness, or
constipation, scur stomach, loss of appetite,
coated tongue, indigestion or dyspepsia,
windy belchings, heartburn" pain and
distress after eating, and kindred derange-
inents of the liver, stomach and bowels.
In proof of their superior excellence, it can
be truthfully said, that they are always
adopted as a household remedy after the
first trial Put up in sealed, glass walls,
therefore always fresh and reliable. One
little Pellet Is laxative, two are mildly
cathartic. As dinner pill" to promote
digestion, or to relieve distress from over
eating, take one after dinner They are
tiny, sugar coated granules any child will
readily take them.
Accept no substitute that may be recon-
mended to be "just as good" 1t may be
