The Cause of Laughter.

Balm suggests the explanation that
laughter is provoked by what he calls
degradation, meaning that we laugh
when we all at once perceive something
degrading, a trickery, weakness or a
pettiness in some person OF object which
we respect, as when the infirmities of
human nature disclose themselves in a
person of Importance or when some
trivial affair occurs in solemn cere-
mony to drag us down or when the
wrong side of some great thing or some
great man is exposed.
"The occasion of the laughter is the
degradation Of a dignitied person or in
terest under circumstances that do not
excite a stronger emotion. In all theo-
ries of laughter the more OF. less impor-
tant fact is marked 4 4 that the feel
ing of the ludicrous arises when some
thing which we respected before is pre-
sented in mean light, for we have no
disposition to laugh when something
that we already. regarded as such is de-
picted as tricky and vile. Popular

MET A SHOCKING DEATH
Frank Sando Crushed to Death in
the Alice Mine.
SHAPELESS MASS OF FLESH
Mangled Out OF Human Resemblance
Between the Cage and the Wall
Plates-Then He Eel Seven
Hundred Feet.

Frank Sando. q w~eil-known young
miner of VAUDEVILLE, met a shocking
death in the Alice mine yesterday af-
ternoon He was caught between the
cage and wall plates at the 800 level
and fell away 700 feet. His remains
were picked up a shapeless mass Of
mangled flesh and blood. Young San
do, together with a cousin, Richard
Gartvell, were partners in a lease on the
100 in the Alice. which they worked to-
gether. The accident occurred about
$3.50 o'clock. At this time they left their
work to return some tools they had bor-
rowed the day before of parties working
on the 300.
They vent down to that level. re-
turned the tools and started back for
their own level. They rung for the cage
in the east compartment OF the shaft
and when II arrived Gartvell stepped
on and took a position at the back of
the cage, which has but one entrance.
After his partner had gotten aboard,
Sando, as is the habit of some miners.
stood on the station and rang for the
engineer to hoist, intending to step
aboard before the cage started, and to
this he owes his death. Noticing a
pick he had intended putting on the
cage, he stopped DOWN TO pick II up
after he had rung to hoist and was In
the act of bending over to lay the pick
on the floor of the cage when the en-
gineer took the cage away. Sando was
caught In the middle and carried against
the wall plates and when the cage
ground past his body, he dropped back
down the shaft I. the 1000, where the
shaft is bulkheaded.
Gartvell went on to the surface with
out stopping at the 100 and quickly no
tilted Foreman Thomas Williams of
what a happened. A gang OF men
were sent down in the west cage who
who found the dead body OF the young
miner lying in six inches of water,
which covered the bulkhead at the 1000.
The body was literally torn to pieces
and could not have been recognized had
it not been known who IL was. The
head from the jaw up was torn, COM
pletely away. either by the grind be-
tween the cage and wall plates or by
striking against the sides of the shaft
in the descent. The body and limbs
were also terribly crushed and torn.
The body was taken to the surface and
the county coroner an mine inspector
notified. Deputy Ruyalley viewed the
remains for Coroner Tremblay, after
which the body was taken to Richards
undertaking rooms. Mine Inspector
Byrna who was in the city, investigated
the accident. Deputy Hunter being
away in another part of the state. The
deceased was about 10 years old and
was a son Of William Sando, one OF the
best known miners OF W2lkervllle. Both
parents are living. There are also sew
eTal other children.
Coroner Tremblay will hold an inquest
this evening at 8 o'clock.

On the table vas a white piece of pa

coming month written thereon and
blank spaces attached.
On the walls We're several charts, and
some peculiar looking instruments in
glass cases reposed snugly on brackets
in the corners.
Indeed it was q weird scene, but nei-

newcomer seemed particularly awe
stricken.

friend, as he observed what the other
was doing. There seemed to be a sus-
picion of slight contempt, mingled with
pity in his tone.
The nan with the vase merely nod

him, and went on shaking the vessel.
Suddenly he ceased and plunged his
hand to the bottom. He drew forth a

"Fair!' he murmured, as though not
ill pleased. He repeated the action, but
shouted "Hotr' in a voice Of intensity.

Controlling the Price of Wheat.

Events during the past few months in
the Chicago wheat pit has shown how
powerful one man can be. Throughout
the whole of civilization the increase
in the price of bread has been felt.
This power of a single man, however,
is not so great as that of one single
medicine in relieving and curing many
diseases. This is Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters, and its influence for good
extends to all lands. When the mouth
tastes bad in the morning, when appetite
is lost, when dizzy spells come on, when
you are easily tired and have no desire
to work, take a wine glass of the Bitters
before meals and you will feel like a
different person. This one medicine
controls the health of everybody.
