Aguinaldo has sent in another batch
Of envoys to talk over terms of peace.
General Otis properly refused to deal
with them, though receiving them
courteously, because they did not bear
proper credentials. and because he
would accede to nothing looking toward
a recognition of Aguinaldo's so-called
government as a government in any re-
spect. The General acted in accord
ance with instructions from Washing
mission the rebels could construe into
even a quasi recognition of their gov
ernment. The emissaries were plainly
told that while our military authori-
ties would willingly confer or corre-
spond with Aguinaldo as a General OF
the insurgent forces, they would hold
no communication with any pretended
officials of any so-called civil govern
ment of the Filipinos. OF course this
proper attitude will be assailed by the
nti-expansionists, and the Administra-
ton will be denounced as wickedly
vicious in refusing to negotiate with
Aguinaldos ENJOYS for peace The bet
ter thought of the nation, however, will
support the President and his Cabinet
in the position taken. The first and
only tolerable condition is submission,
a laying down of arms, recognition of
the authority of the American Govern
ment After that the insurgents can
be assured that our acts toward them
will be those of justice, and our words
those of kindness and toleration in the

Lack of Courage,

The number of men who fail on ac-
count of lack of courage is enormous,
says Shoe 0nd Le0ther FdctS. The num-
Der who would refuse to let go of dol
lar If they knew positively that it would
bring back two is astonishing. Such
men merely exist. They don't live.
They never really amount to anything.
The men who win are the men who
think out the right course to pursue,
and then back up their convictions with
their last penny and their last ounce of
energy. The first goods that John
Wanamaker eyer sold brought him $35.
He delivered his goods in wheelbar-
row. He collected the $35 and went
directly to newspaper Office and
planked it down for advertising space.
Some men would have spent $l.50 for
some cheap dodgers and "saved" the
rest. They would have been wheelbar-
row merchants today

Farm House Burned.

August Krouse's house, located in the
valley near White Haven, was destroy
ed by fire at an early hour Monday
morning. 1t is not known whether the
family is away from home, or perished
in the flames, as none of the occupants
of the house could be located. The
structure was frame building and was
burned to the walls.
Since the above was set in type a
representative of the TRIBUNE inter
viewed Mr.. Krouse and learned from
him that the fire started in the chimney
in an upper room of the house. Mr..
Krouse, at the time was in the cellar
storing his potato crop, and did not
know of the fire until the house was
partly consumed over him. His loss is
keenly felt as he is IL poor man, and had
all of the past seasons crop stored
away. Nothing was saved.

Gas Explosion Kills Six Men.

A terrific explosion of gas in the No.
10 east lift of the Nottingham mine at
Plymouth Monday afternoon seriously
burned six men, besides doing much
damage to the workings. Those who
are so seriously burned that there is
little chance of their recovery are:
Adam Jones, miner, aged 45, married
William Hope, doorboy aged IA; Peter
Leoleod, laborer, aged 25, single; George
Romantz, laborer, aged 30, single.
They are all burned about the head,
face, chest and hands, being caught
by the full rush of the flame. Thomas
d. James, a miner, although severely
burned, started to walk home, but col
lapsed. Michael Bandish, after soak
ing his head in oil, to ease the pain,
walked home. Both these men are
expected to recover.
How the explosion was caused is not
known, The No. 10 lift is quite gaseous
and one of the men may have carelessly
exposed his lamp, a feeder may have
ignited or door may have been left
open and an air current diverted, allow
ing the gas to accumulate.
The force of the explosion was terrific.
Timbers were blown down like nine
pins, cars were smashed, massive doors
were torn down and the six unfortun-
ates in the path of the blast were swept
along like wisps of straw, and they
suffer besides their wounds numerous

The ONLY Sully.
From the Tribune, Pawtucket, r. l., Oct

From the Tribune, Pawtucket, II. l., Oct. II.
No attraction that has visited the
Pawtucket Opera House this season has
been received with greater favor than
Mr.. Daniel Sullys "O'Brien, the Con-
tractor" which opened a three days
engagement last night. Mr.. Sully is
not unknown to Pawtucket audiences
and the theatre contained the largest
crowd of the season to welcome him.
The play, a comedy drama, was well
presented by competent company in
which Mr.. Sully is given every oppor-
tunty to display his dry humor as
"O'Bren, the Contractor" His style
is peculiarly his own and although
there are imitators, Mr.. Sully certainly
stands in class by himself. There is
just enough plot to the play to make it
interesting and the situations are at
times most laughable. The support
was all that could be desired. The
play is well staged, there being several
scenes, notably the railroad scene,
especially realistic. Fred Eckhart made
an excellent Frank Roberts, O'Brien's
principal mainstay in his fight, and II.
r. Iahnar as Lorrillard Lenox made a
pleasing impression. Ruth Boyle in the
leading female role Of Mrs. Van Buren,
did constant work throughout.
A very pleasing feature of the per
formance was the quartette singing and
their comedy turns. They were encored
half dozen times.

A piece of a broken bit, to which is
attached a small strap, together with a
large nail, a number of wooden splint-
ers, three pebble stones, and quantity
of small gritty mineral substance, has
been found, by the use of the X-Rays,
to be part of the contents of the stomach
of living mule at Pottsville. The
beast is owned by the Philadelphia and
Reading Coal and Iron Company, and
by the spirited use of his sure aimed
rear hoofs has already disfgured three
men for life while a number of others
have been badly injured by coming
within range of his flying battery.
Such is the biography of probably the
most famous mule in all Schuylkill

A HERO OF THE MINE.
AN INCIDENT OF LIFE ABOUT THE
SUBTERRANEAN WORKINGS.

Recent Occurrence Near wiIkesbarre
Brings to Mind the Fact That Heroes
Are as Plentiful in the Coal Region as
on the Field of Battle.
From the Coal Trade Journal
We have always maintained that the
mine has its heroes equally as well as
the more widely known field of battle
of which the press is apt to make so
much. A recent occurrence near Wilkes
barre brings this again to mind, where
an incident occurred and a miner was
buried by a fall of coal
When the news of the accident
reached the mine foreman he hurried
to the scene of the disaster. Several
miners and laborers were congregated
about the chute discussing a way by
which the body could be recovered.
The chute is 223 feet long and in places
is almost perpendicular. The only
practical way was to lower man by
means of rope. Several volunteered
to go down.
All the volunteers were, physically,
better able to make the descent and
cope with the dangers than the dimn-
utive foreman, but he would not listen
to entreaties and divesting himself of
boots and other encumbrances he per-
mitted the rope to be fastened about his
body and then started his perilous de-
scent of the chute.
The rope was held taut by willing
hands under the direction of the dis
trict superintendent. The time that
elapsed before the slack on the rope
indicated that the brave inside fore
man had reached the bottom seemed
an age. The miner lay on his face, his
body half covered in coal. The fore
man carefully uncovered the bruised
and battered remains and removing the
rope from his own body fastened it
securely around that of the unfortun-
ate miner and gave the signal to hoist.
Slowly it was pulled to the top and the
rope lowered again for the heroic fore
man. On the way up he was met by Il
miner who was being lowered by a
second rope, it being feared that the
strain on the foreman's nerves would
be too great. They were brought to
the surface side by side, each guiding
the other in the ascent. Truly the
mine has its heroes as well as the army
and navy.
