EXPLOSION WAS TERRIFIC.

May Be Forty Dead in the Braznell
Mine.
Brownsville, Pa, Dec. 27.-The
horror of the Braznell mine disaster
grows in intensity with every hour.
The number of the dead is nov esti-
mated at 40, and may pass that figure.
At the same time there is a strong pre-
sumption that the laws regulating min
ing were carelessly and probably Grim
inally disregarded. Today the first
bodies of the victims were brought out
of the mine, and never in the history
of mine disasters were human beings so
horribly mutilated. 1t was nearly IL
O'Clock when the first of the bodies was
taken out, 2S hours after the explosion.
At $3.50 three more were brought to the
surface, and again at $3.50 three came
up in the cage of the main shaft.

Moro Milllon. 10 be Made.

Every day we hear people saying
that the vast combinations of wealth
are freezing out the individual and that
man has not the chance for money
making that he once had. Let us look
back a little. At the beginning of the
century the largest fortune in the
United States was considerably under
100000. Twenty years ago n fortune
of S50,000,000 seemed to be almost
touching the limit, and yet here we are
talking about 5000, 100000 in the name
of one man. and there does not seem
to be so much alarm about 1t as over
the lesser sum in the days gone by.
Without parading lot Of figures and
estimates 1t may be fairly said that
more new men have become million
aires since 1890 than in any other ten
years of the nations history. So It
will probably go on. Fortunes will
grow larger, and there will be more
wealth and more opportunities.-Sa

There is coldness between Simms
and his former sparring partner,
Curley supplies.
Supplies claims that Simms has
forgotten the assistance he first gave
him when he came to Cleveland. He
charges this up, however, to George
Touhey, Simms' m; ,ger. Jack
King, who trained Art for the bout
with White, has kick comm g.D He
says Touhey ignored him the night
of the contest. Had he been in
Simms' corner, he says, the Akron
man would have won in the eighth
round.
Simms and his friends tell a differ
ent story. They claim that Supplies
gave Art the double-cross. At Mas
sillon he posted Lavign on Simms'
style of fighting. They say this is
only a sample Of his tricks. King, it
is claimed, paid no attention to Art.
Instead of doing it he went around
in company with his more convivial
friends.
