Huron Thursday. While in the city he
called for a pleasant chat with the
Huronite. Mr.. Loucks is one Of the
most entertaining conversationalists in

examined. They had bought whisky,
bat were unable to swear positively
whether it was Allen Gilmer or his
twin brother Archie who sold it. The
Gilmer twins resemble each other SO
closely that their most intimate friends
are unable to distinguish them. Besides
being a perfect image, II OF the other,
they talk alike, dress alike, walk alike,
and it is very doubtful if their own
mother can tell which is Archie and

Sumber Of Victims Has Reached Twen-
ty-nine.
NASHVILLE, Tenn, Dec. pa spe-
rial to The American from Chatta-
nOoga, Tenn, say of the explosion in
the Nelson mine near Dayton, Tenn:
The explosion of damp was succeeded
by a terrific crash, which indicated that
the roof Of the passage through which
the miners had entered, had fallen in.
No avenue of escape was left and there
Is no possibility that any Of the men
will be found alive. The mine is the
property Of the Dayton Coal and Iron
company, three miles from the town of
Dayton, and reached by a spur track.
The men, both white and colOred, in
Guiding several boys, entered the mine
to 60 to work at 7 a. m, but nothing Of
the awful catastrophe was known until
II o'clock, when the drivers at entry
No. 10 found their way blocked by .
solid wall of coal and slate.
RescuinE Parties At Work.
Rescuing parties have been trying all
day to reach the imprisoned miners,
but it is probable they will be several
days forcing an opening through the
wall of fallen roofing, which must be
made safe as they proceed. The foul
air quickly exhausts the workers, who
are relieved by fresh hands. The work
will continue day and night until the
bodies are recovered. At the mouth of
the drift IF woman and hill.
dren soon gathered and the picture Of
their grief and despair is ~heartrending.
The mines are ventilated by air shafts
or passages, so the caving in of the
wall at the entry cut off the draft, and
death was certain to those who breathed
the poisoned air.
All the Victims Recovered.
At 4 O'Clock in the afternoon, a way
had been broken through the debris at
entry No. 10, and the blackened corpses
of the dead miners We're carried to the
outside where the work of identified
ton began. The number Of victims has
reached 20. Reports say hat gas was
first ignited in No. 9 by Tom Hawkins,
gas inspector, on his usual morning
rounds. The flames were rapidly COM
municated to entry No. 10. All the
men in No. 9, escaped except Hawkins.
In No. 10, which forms an angle in the
banks and connects with the outside
world, the deadly gas drifted and con.
gested, doing its work so well that not
one of the men at work in the rooms OF
this cross passage is alive.

IT WAS A BLIZZARD.
Storm Ragged All Day and Interfered With
Business on the Railroads.

The rain that began to fall at o'clock
yesterday morning soon turned to snow
and by noon regular blizzard was
raging.
At 10 o'clock last night the wind be-
gan to lay and the stars peeped
through the broken clouds while the
thermometer lowered around zero.
The street car men worked hard to
keep the different lines opened but the
snow blew on the tracks about as fast
as it was removed. People would get
in the cars and when they would stall
in the snow drifts some of the men
would jump out and proceed on foot
while others less courageous would
stand and help shake the cars hoping
to get through.
The coal wagons kept going all day
and there was q good many poor peo-
pie called on the county commissioners
and asked for coal and food to get them
through the storm. 1t seemed that the
commissioners were giving out good
deal of charity, but at o'clock in the
evening the footing up showed only
$3.50
The railroads suffered a good deal
from the storm. The Wichita and
Western train was stuck in the snow
at Pratt. The Frisco was closed from
Neodesha to Burton and a Missouri
Pacific train showed in at Conway

their road impossible west of Herring

and secured the aid of Russia and Aus

. war which lasted five years. but the
Poles carried their point, and TO con-
sole his father-in-law for the loss of a
kingdom, Louis conferred on him the

it was a woman's war all through, just
as truly as that of France with Prussia
in 1870, when the Empress Eugene de-

not so disastrous, it none the less

SHE DIDN'T WANT SOAP.
Woman Argues the Case With Commits
siOner Harmon and He Snrrenders.

She walked into the county commits
sionerS Office like one who was acquain-
ted with the lay out and seated herself
in chair across the table from Com
missioner Harmon.
Busch was kept at home by the storm
and Commissioner Webb had gone in
the hall to buy a fresh cigar. This left
the entire duties OF the board of county
commissioners resting on Mr.. Harmon.
The woman was middle aged and a
boy about eight years old accompanied
her. Her clothes were not vehy clean
and her hands would have put a coal
hauler to shame and a large amount
of the coal SCOT of the city had accumu-
lated on her face. The balance of it
struck the boy.
where's Johnny Allen?" she asked
in a familiar way. Harmon told her
that Johnny was laid away on the polit-
ical shelf, and that he now graced the
position formerly held down by her
friend.
We'll" she said, 81 want some coal
and / ought to have some meat and
bread and sugar and coffee
Harmon asked her name and then
he picked up a book and looked back
through it's pages. Yes, here is your
name. but 1 find that you have been
on the county for a long time. Where
is your husband?"
The woman told him she had been de-
serted and when Mr.. Harmon told her
that a woman had called the day before
for aid and had claimed TO be the wife
of that same man, she knocked him
senseless by cody answering:
Certainly; he has two wives, and he
has left them both
Harmon said any man who owned
two families and could get the county
to keep them both must be good one.
and he wrote out the order and when
he passed it over said:
well. how is your soap holding out.
Don't you want some Soap?
Then there was a flush that showed
through that coal dirt and when Bro.
Harmon had heard all and got out alive
he then and there made solemn VOW
to never offer another woman soap.

How They Caused Trouble.
"Women's Jars make mems wars"
says the old proverb, and its truth 10
illustrated in the history of nations as
well as in the daily happenings of even
a quiet neigh oorhood. The history OF
Louis XIV is the history of his mistress
and no one can read of the occurrences
at the dissolute French court of that
time, of the quarrels and intrigues of
the Cheateauroux, the Pompadours,
the Du Barrys, the swarm OF other
titled but not noble women who liter
ally fought with each other for the
distinction Of disgrace; of the pare aux
cerfs. where the king taught the girls
stolen for his harem their prayers and
the catechism, without feeling that the
revolution was just and the punish
ment of the nobility, though terrible.
was well deserved
Like the Augean stables. France had
become foul and river of revolution
alone could cleanse it. But the worst
example of feminine neddling during
the whole reign of this worthless
character came, not from his mistress,
but from his wife. In l725 he was mar

of Stanislaus, ex-king of Poland.

of some strength of character, and, as
Louis had none, for time she ruled
