SIXTEEN DEAD.
Bodies of Entombed Miners Buried Under

Bodies of Entombed Miners Buried Under
800 Feet of Water.
CENTRAL CITY, Col, Sept 2.-The
list of the supposed dead in the two
mines Friday morning was sixteen.
William Prisk was rescued alive. Ten
men are known to be dead un-
der 200 feet of water. Four
are possibly in the tunnel. 1t
is comparatively dry, but the water
having stopped ventilation, the gases
will kill them. Volunteers Friday
morning were trying to force their way
to where the entombed miners are sup
posed to be. State Mining Inspector
Talbot arrived Friday morning to
investigate the disaster, and said it
would be impossible to rescue any
more of the miners. The accident was
due to carelessness. The danger was
known but neither of the mines where
the men lost their lives had pumping
apparatus. When the water rushed in
on them it dropped fully 10 feet per
second and the wretched men literally
sank out of sight.
AS the Sleepy Hollow mine was al
ways dry, no pumping plant is estab-
lished there. Efforts have been made to
lower the water with 5O0-gallon
bucket, but this apparently has no
effect Cornish pumps will be put in,
but it will even then take sixty days to
drain the mines and get to the bodies
of the drowned miners. The water is
now 800 feet deep in the Sleepy Hol-
low shaft and is still rising, while it
has lowered in the Fisk over 100 feet.

They loved their teacher and he

In return they have anticipated

supported MIN in his work.
He has been doing good work
for the master in our Sunday

Tolstoi, the novelist, has a son
who is known as Father Tolstoi in
the Russian Orthodox Church
Communion. When Pope Leo ap-
pealed to the Christians of the east
to aid in the union of eastern and
western believers, Father Tolstoi
was fascinated with the scheme,
and went Immediately to Rome,
where he was made much of, his
fathers novels being popular in
Italy. His Holiness informed the
young man that to render efficient
aid be must become Roman
Catholic and presently it was ru-
mored in Russia that he had done
so. The Russian church solemnly
accommodated Father Totstoi
This disturbed the vatican, and
out of political considerations, the
young Russian was told to go home
again. He did so, but secretly re-
turned to the pope, who, in order
to test him, ordered him to join a
Basilican cloister. The monks
habit was adopted by Father Toll
stoi, but has now been cast aside,
and the young man has returned
to Russia, penitent, disenchanted.
The pope's scheme to absorb the
eastern church does no. enchant
him now.

The Way We See Them.

Contentment does not come of
ones possessions or of ones posi-
ton, but it comes of ones way of
looking at these. He who realizes
that he is where God wants him to
be, and that he has what God wants
MIN to h4ve, will be contented with
his lot and his,store, whatever they
are; but he who fails to realize
this truth would never be con-
tented, though he were the most
favored man in the world.-Se-

ter, with companion recently
made a descent of the Colorado
river on a raft. The raft was built
of driftwood, 20 feet long, g feet
wide, and well spiked together.
The boxes, with false bottoms con-
tanning provisions, were nailed
upon the raft. They served as
seats when the water was smooth
and protected the provisions from
the swash. The navigators got
into serious trouble only once. On
the first day the raft was carried
into an eddy about 600 feet long
and 800 feet wide and very deep.

there and gone overheard, that
would have been the end, because
the suck would have carried him
down. They were three days on
the raft, tying up at night. and
made about one-half the distance
