FLAMES FAR UNDER GROUND.
Constant Danger of Fire In the Dee
Lake SUPERIOR Conner Mfnea


Lake SuperiOr Copper Mines,
Houghton (Mich) Correspondence New
York Sun: The Atlantic mine, one of tho
Oldest and largest copper producers of
the Lake Superior district, is on fire. The
flames were discovered last week near c
shaft, on the seventh level, 700 feet be-
low the surface, and are supposed to have
been caused by careless miners who went
to that part of the mine, where the copper
rock has been dug out, to eat their mid
night luncheon. The mine is now her
1netically sealed and the flames will be
smothered. Such fires at depths Of from
a few hundred feet to nearly 1900 feet
have; caused the loss of scores Of lives
in the copper district, and the cry mines
afire!"S will clean out the drifts quicker
than any other warning. The cry Fire.
Talone merely means that miners are blast
ing, and warns those who hear it to seek
spots distant from the scene Of the blast.
I The first and most costly mine fire was
in the Calumet and Hscla mine in 1887.
Two thousand men were thrown out Of
work for more than a month and several
lives were lost. The cost of the fire to
the mine was never made known by the
management, but is 5Variously estimated
at from one to twoAmillion dollars. The
shafts leading: into the mine were all COW
cred with heavy timbers over which clay
and sand were spread and packed tightly
down. Despite all efforts to cut off the
supply of air the fire burned stubbornly
for many weeks. This first and greatest
fire was followed within less than year
by second and the latter within a few
months by a third. In the second, and
again in the third, fire the mere cutting
off of the air supply was found too slow
a process, the immense underground open
ings of the mine containing air to feed
the flames for weeks hence carbonic acid
gas was generated in huge steel tanks
and sent down into the mine nv millions
of cubic feet to smother the fire. This
smothering plan was: a success. Since
the three big fires great precautions have
been taken against further losses in the
same way. Persons not regularly EN-
ployed in the mine can go underground

data was very proud of ner achievement.
Giacomo gazed at the fish and the sheer
on his lip died. He says the days when
ne was fisherman came back. He could
hear again the shouts of joy that followed
the finding of fish of paradise in the
trawl. To the young men it was an au-
curry of good luck in love. But Giacomo's
face hardened again and he said:
1T amounts to this, then: All the
dowry you bring me is fish,"
The words stabbed her soul and woke
the fury of a woman scorned. Crushed
had cringed before the man who, to the
peasant mind, had a right to be angry.
Now she faced him on equal terms. She
cast the insult in his teeth and bade him
withdraw to inferno, there to be the com
panion of dogs and swine. Fisher maidens
from the Policastro gulf can swear as
we'll as weep.
For the first time Giacomo became fully
sensible of her virile beauty Though, she
tcngue-scourged him mercilessly he heard
it not. He saw only her flashing eyes and
heaving bosom and the deepening glow
with which anger tinged her perfect Ro-
man face. She covered him with the
frankest epithets known to the jargon Of
her people, but it was all sweet music to
his ear. %s
"Ah, he thought. "she would be the
finest wife in Mulberry Send, and make
puppets OF all the famous beauties of the
Calabriani, the Siciliani and the Napon-
tani.''
With tender words that must have
sounded strange in his own ears he
squelched her ire. An hour later they
were trudging in the throng Of Broad
way toward the Office Of the mayor. Do
DADA lugged along the copper vessel con-
tanning the ever-restless fish ofsparadise.j
They waited in the mayors anteroom an
hour. and then were told that the citys
chief was too busy for marriages that
day. But they found an alderman who
performed the rites Of wedlock for a large
number Of poor people like themselves.
AS the alderman pocketed the fee he
said Next! and another couple stepped
up for a nuptial knot.
There will be no time for wedding
breakfast, said Giacomo when they had
reached the crowded streets OF the Bend.
Here Diodata could make out the signs
over the shops, while all about her the
air seethed with Italian patter. This
drove away the homesickness that had
