MADISON MAN ENToklBED.
THOMAS HARTMAN BURIED IN A
COLORADO MINE.
The Anna Lee Caves in While the
Unfortunate Man Is Descend
ing the Shaft

Madison, January Z.
John NJ Harnan, who lived with his
mother and sister at 222 West Wash
ington avenue, left at noon yesterday
for Victor, Col, where his brother,
Thomas Harnan, is .entombed in the
Anna Lee mine, which caved in Sat
urday burying nine men. The Madison
relatives of the unfortunate man re-
ceived the first intelligence of the ac-
cident through the columns of the
Democrat Sunday morning. Soon af-
terward they received telegram from
cousins there and have since been in
almost hourly communication with
their relatives on the scene of the dis
aster. The names of the miners work
ing the Lee shaft are superintendent
Sheldon, Foreman Lewis, Jack Maloy,
Mike McGuirk, Tom Maloy, Cosgroye,
Pady Nee, Lund, Thomas Harnan.
Sheldon Lund and Harnan were going
down in the cage when the cavern oc-
Cured. They were in the cage be-
tween the third and fourth levels when
the shaft pinched. 1t is possible they
were thrown into one of the drifts and
are safe, but no tidings can be had
from them. Work began Immediately
and great efforts were made to reach
the men. 1t is doubtful, however, If
this can be done in time to save them
on account of the general character of
the disaster. 1t is believed 1t will take
week or ten days to reach the en-
tombed miners The cause of the dis
aster cannot be definitely stated, but 1t
is said that the timbers were insult
ficient to sustain the great weight to
which they had been subjected
Thomas Harnan left Madison for the
west about four years ago. Since then,
however, he has visited Madison, the
last dime being about two years ago.
He is about 80 years old. He was one
of the four first men to discover min
eral in the Cripple Creek region. While
the others retained their claims he
sold his before their tremendous value
was realized. His comrades of that
time are now millionaires, one of whom
recently visited Madison and was en-
tortained by the members of the Har-
nan family. Besides his mother, an
old lady of advanced years, he has
three sisters living in Madison Mrs.
Thomas Cass and Misses Maggie and
Dora Harnan.

JURISDICTION RAISED.

Milwaukee, Wis, Jan. THE cele-
brated case of the state against Fred
erick 7. Day, president Of the de-
funct Plankinton bank, WAS called in
the municipal court Monday, Judge
Goodland, of Appleton, presiding. The
point of jurisdiction as to whether
Judge Wallber could call in an outside
judge was contested at the outset. The
counsel for Mr. Day held that Judge
Wallber lost jurisdiction at the time OF
the filing Of the affidavits of prejudice
and hence his calling in Of Judge Good
land was Illegal. They think the only
court having jurisdiction is the circuit
court, presided over by Judge Johnson.
The arguments on this point will. with
out doubt, be very long and heated.
The change to the circuit court will
imply further delay.

of Great Britain. The jingoes are ex-

Among others expected to be present
are Attorney General Harmon, Secre-
tary Of the Interior Hoke Smith and
senator's Morgan. Faulkner and Villas.
The sudden return to life of the dem

advantage of by the party leaders, and
every effort will be put forth to make

all over the country as never before.
Chicago, st. Louis. New York, Boston,
New Orleans, Baltimore and other

Jackson's day is the anniversary of
the battle Of New Orleans, January 8,
1915, when he routed the heroes of the
peninsula under command of Yelling

the question of British invasion in this

think the president made or intended
to make threats towards the British
government in his message, but he did
express in the strongest way the pos

the feeling Of all our people in this
country regarding the supposed Brit

Havana, Jan. Little news has
been received in this city regarding
the movements OF either the Spanish
or the insurgents, the lines of COM
munication being cut in every direc-
ton out OF Havana. Enough is re-
ported from points In the province OF
Pinar del Rio, however, to show that
the insurgents have covered wide
territory in that province and unceas-
ingly destroyed sugar cane and dam

report from there said that the insur.
gents had plundered churches, business
houses, stores and private residences,
and then destroyed them entirely. They
also are said to have killed the mayor
and prominent merchant OF that
place. Similar tales come from other

the event that they actually attack the

sible that the North Atlantic squadron
may be ordered to Havana in order TO
be in position to guard American In
terests during the disturbed conditions
that may be expected to accompany a
siege. II is not probable that exeep-
ton by Spain could be taken to the

present for their protection In an

that the city Is wen fortified, being

by 10000 volunteers, with 10000 more
loyal sons in the city willing to take
arms. With these forces at their COM

ion that 1t is impossible for the insur-
gents 10 capture the city, unless they
are provided with SIEGE artillery. 1t

gents are engaged in operations under

Those Useful Conduits,

The kidneys and bladder, sometimes
become torpid and weak from unas-
certainable causes. When this oc-
ours, their discharging function is
of necessity very imperfectly per
formed, and certain debris, which is
the result of natural bodily waste
aud decay, does not escape as it
should, but remains to corrupt the
blood and develop poisonous humors
and dangerous as well as painful
diseases. 1t is one of the beneh-
cent effects of Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters to gently stimulate the
urinary organs, and prevent them
from lapsing into a state OF mac
tivity, always provocative of their
inhammatory degeneration and de
cay. How much better then is it
to adopt this mild diuretic as a
means of melting them to action,
than to incur the danger of this de-
structiou, To expel from the sys-
tenn waste matter through the bow
els and kidneys, and to regulate
and arouse the stomach and liver
are among the chief uses of this
valuable remedy.
