Bombarded by Planets.

FROM Popular science monthly.
The regions of space beyond our
planet are filled with flying fragments
Some meet the earth in its onward rush;
others, having attained inconceiva BILE
velocity, overtake and crash into the
whirling sphere with loud defamation
and ominous glare, finding destruction
or perhaps ricOcheting again into the
unknown.
Some come singly vagrant fragments
from the intinty of space; Others fall in
showers like golden rain, all constitute
ing a bombardment appalling in its
magnitude.
1t has been estimated that every "a
hours the earth or it's atmosphere is
struck by 400, 100000 of missiles If ircn
or stone, ranging from en- ounce up to
tons in weight,
Every month there rush upon .he liy-
ing globe a least IL. 900 900, 600 rcn and
stone Fragments, which, wlrh lm!i ac-
commandment, crash into the circunam-
bient atmosphere.
Owing to the resistance offered by the
air, few of these solid shots strike the
earth. They move out of space ' itn a
possible velocity of 80 or 40 miles A sec
ond, and, like moths, plunge into the
revolving globe, lured to III cir destruc-
ton by its fatal attraction.
The moment they enter our atmo-
sphere they ignite; the air is piled I'D
and compressed ahead of them with in
conceivable force, the resultant friction
producing an immediate rise in tenn
perature. and the shooting star, the
meteor of popular parlance, is the re-
suit.

FORTY PER!SHED IN
TIE BRAzNEL.L. MINE:
Strong Presumption That the
Law Was Disregarded.
NAKED LIGHTS WE'RE USED

Contrary to Mining Regulations, the
Safety lamps We're Unlocked, C&u;-
ing All Explosion OF Ga:-ItiSo Boss
Talks Of thc Disaster.
BROWNSVILLE, Pa, Dec. 25. - The
horror of the Brazneli mine grows in in
tersity with every hour. The number
OF the dead is now estimated at 20 and
may pass that figure
At the same timo there is a strong
presumption that the laws regulating
mining were carelessly and probably
criminally dis-egarded.
From statements obtained today 1t
seems clear that the presence Of gas in
quantities in the mine was perfectly
we'll known, and that naked lights were
used for several days before the explo-
sion. According to credible authority,
not single safety lamp was used in the
mine by the working crews since last
Tuesday morning, four days bsfore the
explosion.
Fire Boss James Ratcliffe, whose duty
it was to look after the safety of the
mine, and upon whose care and lntelll.
gence the lives Of the diggers depended
in large degree, said:
Fall Caused Explosion.
Il believe the explosion was caused
by sudden fall which occurred just
before the explosion. do not believe
there was enough gas in the mine to be
dangerous. As matter of fact, the
coal itself gives off little gas, but the
gas comes chiefly from the roof Of the
pit.
"The mine was we'll supplied with
air. The men were trapped there like
rats and there is no hope that single
man is alive. have never seen a moro
terrific mine explosion. Stone stop.
pings Q feet thick and cemented to.
gether were utterly destroyed. Not
even particles of rock remained. The
stone was blown into dust"
William Pastorious, a driver IN the
mine, tells sensational! story. Pas
torious, who has lived in Brownsville
for many years and is regarded as a
man of intelligence, says that Pit Boss
Jones On last Tuesday morning issued q
general order that all safety lamps
might be dispensed with, and in their
stead the miners were permitted to use
naked lights. Pastorious also states
that the lamps were unlocked, contrary
to regulations.
Preferred Naked Lights.
"The miners always prefer to Use
naked lights" said Pastorious, when
ever possible, as they give better light and
are easily handled. I have been work
ing hsre q couple of months and used a
safety lamp until Tuesday morning. At
that time mine safeties were in use by
drivers and others who were constantly
moving about the mine, and therefore
exposed to a greater risk than digger
in a room. Contrary to mine regula-
tions, the safety lamps in use were in
many cases unlocked.
'On Tuesday the pit boss issued an
order that the men could use open
lamps, and they Of course discarded the
sateties, which made poorer light.
About IGO yards from the bottom Of the
main shaft there was fall which had
been boarded up, and in which the gas
stood against the roofs. I think 1t was
this gas which exploded.

ANTifCOL LAW Is VALID.

MONTGOMERY, Ala, Dec. 2i.-The su-

be valid the law which prohibits the
selling of race pools in Alabama.
81 the recent state fair pools wero
sold and the tookmakers were arrested,
but the inferior criminal court at Biz

the ground that the law was uncorstl-

The antipool advocates carried the

reversed.
