Mammoth, gune 11-Yesterday wit
messed the completion of the electric
light and signaling system at the Grand
Central mine, which, together with the
new and modern hosting plant just
installed, gives them unsurpassed facil-
tiles for speedy and safe work. The
electric light and signaling system en-
braces the most advanced and modern
methods in this line of science. The
illuminating plant proper consists of d
seventy-fiVe-light Westinghouse dy-
namo and high-speed SturteVant en-
CINE. Each station is lighted and the
underground system is combined with
what is known as a fiaSh-light signal
ing apparatus intended to be used by
the men for calling the cageman from
any station in the mine.
By simply opening switch, all the
station lights are cut out simultaneous
ly, and by the number of flashes indi-
Gated the cageman knows from which
particular station the party is calling.
The main signaling apparatus and ac-
cessories are something entirely new,
and are a radical departure from all
systems now in use in the mining
world. Probably the most important
feature of this system is its accuracy
and positiveness, and the fact that it is
as easy TO signal the engineer while the
cage is moving at a speed of 1000 feet
per minute as when stationary.
Though an undisputed fact, this
statement at first seems incredible, and
when witnessed in action one is amazed
with its simplicity. In addition to the
age-signaling device there is a circuit
closer on each station and on the sur
face. No press buttons or similar fiimsy
and unreliable constructions are used,
but in their place Il heavy brass circuit
closer, made SO that all parts are eX-
posed, and as each signal is given, its
accuracy is indicated by flashlights in
view of the sender and the one receiv-
ing the instructions. This system or
feature makes it absolutely reliable
and renders such a thing as missed or
misunderstood signals an impossible
liz.
Only the man who has had actual
experience in working in a deep shaft
way can appreciate the necessity of
employing a system that is positive in
its operation, and one that aboliSheS

annoyances and dangers. With the old
bell-rOpe plan, the man below, possibly
in imminent danger, pulls and pulls,
and trusts wholly to luck that his
vitality important message has been
correctly transmitted. whereas with
this system the individual sending sees
each signal as it is given, and the pos
sibility Of mistakes and accidents is
reduced to a minimum. Owners of deep
shafts will readily perceive the advan-
tages to be had in obtaining such an
apparatus, as it does away with the
necessity of heavy cables and counter
weights in the shaft. and the constant
adjustment and annoyance that such
apparatus necessarily causes.

ADVANCE OF BUSINESS.
Large Improvement In State of En-
ployment In New York.


Albany, n. Y, June 11.-That there
is a decided Improvement throughout
the state of employment in nearly all
industries, with the exception of the
building trades, is shown by the first
quarterly bulletin just issued by the
bureau of labor statistics for the quar-
ter ending March 81.
In May the bureau made inquiries of
leading manufacturers of the state con-
corning the condition of business. Their
answers are summarized in about TWEEN
ty-five reports. Five reported an ad-
vance of business since the 1st of Jan
,uary; fourteen others reported an in
crease of working force, while only
three reported declining or stationary
business. The industries most favor
ably situated We're the iron and steel
industries, cotton goods, clothing,
canned goods, cigars and lumber.
The trades union returns show that.
the number of unemployed on March
81 was 3l,613. as against 3S,S57 last year,
a decrease of 1924. The number of I'M
employed during the entire quarter was
22,659. as against is, 122 last year, an in
crease of 4,557.
While the employment conditions of
1898 showed an improvement over
those of 1897, the improvement since
1898 has not been so noticeable. I'M
provement among the male workers is
especially noticeable in the clothing
and iron and steel industries, and the
percentage of idleness among en-
ployees of street railways on March 81
of this year was almost reduced to
naught.
n companion of the earnings of men
and women in the entire state shows
that 69.2 per cent of them earned be-
tween $50 and s125 during the quarter.
while 1913 per cent earned between SIS
and 800; the number that earned over
$3.50 in the quarter equivalent to 81
day. was insignificant On the other
hand, more than one-half the men
(56.1T per cent? earned over $50 each.

Do You Suffer From Pilesp

If you only knew what thousands of
people have learned you would suffer
no longer. Surgery has been the only
radical help for hemorrhoids (protrud-
ing piles), and that often fails The dis
covery that the common buckeye is a
specific for these troubles makes it easy
to do what operations have frequently
failed to do. Tabler's Buckeye Pile
Ointment positively cures every form
of piles-blind, bleeding, itching and

thousands will not fail in your case.

Why the House Rnrned nonn-

The rishOmingo Herald relates
the following amusing incident:
"A good story has just leaked out
on the chief of the Ardmore fire
department that would come well
under the title of "Why the
House Burned Down" Every
body will consider i pretty good
excepting the chief and the man
who lost the house. Ardmore's
water supply comes from wells,
and there are several of them in
different parts of the city which
are called fire wells" and they
are small in circumference. The
popping of pistols announced fire
in the city and the department
turned out. The chief arrived at
the well first, seized the ring in
the iron cover gave it the neces-
sary 'yank' to remove it and
tumbled into the hole which his
portly corpOrosity filled so snugly
that no water could be had with
which to quench the fire, and
that's why The house burned
down"

DIED BY VIOLENCE.
Arthur H. Cooks LifeIeSS
Body Found Sunday
Morning.

The dead body of Arthur Cook
was found Sunday in the out
skirts of Boise City, Idaho. This
intelligence was conveyed to the
distressed family by a telegram to
Mrs. II. c. Cook, the mother, re-
ceived about nine or ten O'Clock,
and signed by Mont Oliver. The
particulars were very meagre, but
there was an intimation of suicide.
Instructions were at once sent to
embalm the remains and forward
to Oswego, Kansas, for interment
beside the father, H. c. Cook, who
died last June.
The young man left Vinita a few
months since and went to Chicago,
where for time he was employed
by the Armour Packing Co. in
their offices. As this work did
not agree with him he went back
about a month ago to Idaho, where
he had previously been employed
in a mine or by mining company.
Deceased had been in poor
health for year or two and failed
to pass the surgeons examination
last spring when he enlisted with
the Rough Riders. His rejection
was the source of much regret to
him at the time, but seemed TO
cause him no apprehension as to
his condition. In fact, in telling
of his experience with the sur
geons, who told him "his lungs
were no larger than their fist and
he could not run around the
block" he said, in reply to the
enquiry of friend, that she could
run a mile"
When he left here for Chicago
he had something like $3.50 90 and
there is no reason for believing he
has spent any considerable portion
of it. This circum ~tance leads his
friends, without being in posses
sion of all the facts, to wonder if
it really was suicide aud if instead
he was not murdered.
The family are greatly distressed
and will be deeply sympathized
with by all acquaintances and by
the friends and acquaintances of
the deceased's father, H. C. Cook,
who was cashier of the bank from
its establishment to his death.

1t is not improbable that the
Department Of Justice will instruct
the District Attorney TO commence
prosecutions of all parties who
were implicated in the passage OF
the bill by council making appro-
priatiOns for the payments to cer-
tain negros who claimed citizenship
in the Cherokee tribe, of money in
full of their rights. The law in
question passed council in 1892
and carried an appropriation of
100000. Since its enactment
it has transpired that a majority
of The allidavits submitted in re-
gard to the negro citizens claiming
membership in the tribe were
fraudulent. As a result the De-
par,ment of Justice has decided to
reopen the question ana prosecute
the guilty parties.-Washington

AUTHUR COOKS DEATH.
A Few Additional Particulars.
Learned.

Mrs. H. c. Cook went to 0swego
yesterday, having received in
formation that the body of her
son Arthur, who was found dead
early Sunday morning at Boise
City, Idaho, would be forwarded
there for burial as early as pos
sible Little information has been
obtained since that contained in
the first dispatch which was from
the sheriff. The body was found
in the foothills near a military
encampnent adjoining the city by
some soldiers. The coroner,s IS jury
returned a verdict that death was
caused by means to them unknown.
The Knights of Pythias and
Odd Fellows have interested them
selves in the arrangement of the
details for sending the remains
home, and it may be presumed
they will satisfy themselves fully
as to circumstances surrounding
the young mans death, and
advise the family.
1t has been learned that no
money or jewelry was found with
the body, and the expenses of EN-
balming and of a casket have been
arranged by the family, Mr.. Viii
liam Cook, of Oswego, to whom
the remains were ordered sent,
having been communicated with
by wire.
As stated at the outset, the the
ory of suicide is to great extent
discounted bv the fact that Arthur
had plenty of money. Tom Knight
was at the same place in Chicago
with him, and he says when he
left there, only a couple of weeks
or so before, he took sum of
money for expenses, as he said,
and also had two diamond rings
and his gold watch-a present from
his father some ten years ago.
Most of his money he placed in a
bank at Chicago. The family have
written to know if it is still there.
Since he reached Boise City Mrs.
Cook received a letter from her
son saying that he had employ
ment, at what he did not say, and
got So a day. His reason fol- Civ
ing up his place at Chicago was
that he was required to be on duty
from five O'Clock in the evening
until seven next morning and it
was more than he could stand.
A telegram received yester-
day from Lieut.. Allen Cook, at
Boston, expressed deepest SYM
pathy with his distressed relatives
here.

his term of enlistment expires

other Tahlequah boys in the bat
terry desired to see active service,
aud they may yet be sent to Cuba
or the Philippines, but whether
they are ordered to cross the pond
or remain to do garrison duty at
San Diego barracks, they will be
satisfied, as life there is one pro-
longed dream and no complaint
can be found with their army
relations. Price and Ingram will
remain here a short while before

The proposition OF the Cher =
kee commission to allot all the
land equally and make up the diff
ference in quality with cash, ought
to be amended so as to allow every
Cherokee citizen to keep all they
have and get all they can before
allotment. The good land has all
been taken up and everybody ex-
cept the iullbloods are pretty well
fixed for land anyway. The
scheme seems to be that the half
breeds and whites are to have the
good land and the fullbloods the
cash. 1t is an interesting study in
consummate selfshness to watch
the movements of certain leaders in
this business Of treaty making.
