said some one. What number is it?"
"Why, nine, of course" replied some
one else There are nine muses., you
know, and you talk of a nine-days'
wonder. Then you bowl at nine-pins,
and a cat has nine lives"
Nonsense broke in another. Seven
is the magic number. Seventh heaven,
don't you know, and all that. Seven
coors in the rainbow; seven days in
the week; seventh son of a seventh son

''Five's the number you mean. A man
has five fingers on his hand and five
toes on his foot and he has five senses; ;
and"
''Three is undoubtedly the magic
number" interrupted another, because
people give three cheers, and Jonah was
inside a whale three days and three
nights, and if at first you don't sue
coed, try, try again-three times, you
see"
This was received with some con-
tempt by the company and soulful
youth gushed out:
1.-TWO, oh, two is the magic number.
Ones self and one other. The adored
one Just US two"
A hard-featured individual, who had
been listening to the conversation hith-
erto unmoved, here remarked In harsh
voice:
THE magic number is number one in
this world, and If you want to succeed
never forget it.
An interval of deep thought on the

Smith. a first cabin passenger, who says
ne belongs to Guilford, but who had
been engaged in farming in the United
States for ten years, is another of the
survivors. He said
During the panic I jumped over
board, swan about an hour and
reached a rock. l tried to climb on
it, but the waves were too strong.
afterward found a raft with a sail on
it, and held up the sail with one arm
and fioated toward the shore.
while on the raft l was washed
right over one rock. Happily I had
on a lifebelt and recovered the raft,
which then struck another rock, to
which / held fast for some time. At
terward I swan ashore, the land be-
ing only a short distance away from
the rock to which I was clinging.

Men Employed to Defend the Coal
Company's Property Are Seek

Murderers.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

VIRDEN, ILL.,, Oct. 15.-The Coroner's
jury had two sessions to-day at the
Stockade, where it examined several
witnesses. They were ex-guards who
are under nominal arrest by the militia,
and for whom blanket warrant was
sworn out yesterday, charging them
with conspiracy to murder in connec-
ton with Wednesdays fight. The tes-
timony was practically the same as
given by their companions Friday.
The general idea conveyed was that
while the men were employed to defend
the property of the Chicago-Virden Coal
Company they not only did not fire any
shots themselves but they had no time
to see whether any of their comrades
fired upon the mob. This applied to
the guards stationed inside the grounds.
The members of the train escort either
declined to- answer on that point or
that they did not remember.
The coal company has several wit
nesses to examine, including Manager
Lukens, and it VIII take one or more
days to conclude.
ST. LOUIS, Oct. 15.-Mr. Mills re-
ceived a telegram late this afternoon
from the Chicago -Virden Coal Company
at Virden, H., telling him to keep the
f1fty-seyen negro miners here, the coal
company to pay the expense. The tele-
gram said that the negroes would be
kept in st. Louis until protection for
them at Virden could be had, and that
they would then be taken there and put
to work in the mines at that place.
Thiers men and the police imme-
diately began to round up the blacks,
who had scattered around the city. and
took them to the Four Courts, where
they will be kept until other quarters
are secured.
