Lieutenant Colonel Barnett, who is

the course OF an interview said
"The boys are all glad, Of course, TO
get back home again, but their Joy is
tinged with sadness on account of the
death of Colonel Hawkins.
''The colonel was amost kindand con-
siderate commander, who took keen,
individual interest in his men, and it is
little wonder that the boys feel his loss
Is a personal bereavement
Colonel Hawkins was sick man
at the beginning of the campaign
which ended in the capture Of Malolos.
The regimental surgeon had advised
him to retire for fest and medical at
tention, but the colonel peremptorily
refused, declaring that he would go
wherever his men went. When the
final volley was fired at Malolos Colo
mel Hawkins was right in front Of the
firing line urging his men onward and
encouraging them with his exhibition
of personal bravery. After that de-
clsive battle the colonePs sickness in
creased. The ailment developed rapid

embarked he sank steadily and his
death at sea was not unexpected"
But despite the death Of the COM
mander the reception accorded the gal
liant Tenth when they landed today,
two hours after the body of Colonel
Hawkins had been brought ashore, was
extremely cordial. There was less
hurrahing than usual on an occasion
of this kind. as matter of course, but
the brave boys passed through streets
densely packed with admiring thou
sands, and at times 1t was impossible
for them to refrain from expressing
their welcome in cheers. But the men
who had been fighting Filipinos
marched stolidly on to the camp at

A Slight Blaze in the KnickerbOcker Col
Berry Last Night.
LAGGINGS IGNITED BY 4 LAMP
A Miner Fell Asleep and HIS Lamp. which
Hung on a Prop, Started the Blaze
The Falling Coal Awakened
the Sleeper.

One Of the most singular occurrences in a
mine reported in this vicinity for some time
occurred at the Knickerboeker colliery,
Yatesville, last night.
A Polish miner working on the night shift
in a gangway hung his lamp on prop and
seated himself to take rest. He was alone
in the place and fell asleep. Sometime after
he was awakened by pieces Of coal falling
about him. As his eyes opened he saw
blaze above him aud the gangway was full
Of smoke. He jumped up in fright and nan
out to the bottom Of the slope as fast as his
legs could carry him, and told the men there
that the gangway was on fire.
The report naturally created much alarm
and there was general bustling about on
the part Of the employees. While the night
men and others hurried to the place indi.
Gated, messengers were sent to the surface for
the inside foreman and the outside employees
sent messages to the district superintendent
and Mine Inspector Stein, the impression
at the time being that the fire was an exten-
sive one.
An inspection Of the gangwsy showed that
the FIRE was not a serious one and it was soon
sxtinguished The lamp hung up by the
miner had ignited r tagging and burned il
through. so that the loose coal started to run.
1t was the falling of this coal that awakened
the sleeping miner.
Notwithstanding the trivial nature Of the
blaze the Mine Inspector and other officials
spent some time in examining the place to
make sure that the FIRE had not travelled
under the laggings, or ignited the coal They
became satisfied in this respect and left the
mine at about ten o'clock.

John Thompson First Killed His wife and
Then Himself.
Shamokin, Aug. 2.-That quiet farming
country in what is known as Irish Valley.
near here was startled yesterday morning
when they found that murder and suicide
had taken place in their midst. John Thomp-
son, a farmer, first killed his wife and then
himself
For over month the couple did not live
together. The woman kept house for a man
at Uniontown, near Shamokiu. Saturday
the husband took her home and on Sunday
they were seen together, apparently happy
gathering huckleberries. That was the last
time the woman was seen alive.
Yesterday Thompson gave a note to a man
to take to Shamokin. The mans name was
Bobb He couldn't find the owner so he
brought it back. Thompson could not be
found at home and Bobb went to his own
home. Later he opened the note and found
it to contain these words: MY wife died this
morning" Yesterday party went into the
house and found the wife on the bed with q
bullet in her temple. Nearby lay Thompson
with bullet hole in his temple and revol,
yer in his hand
1t is supposed the woman was killed yester
day morning and that Thompson took hi.
own life last night. He was ~ years old and
she was 80. There seems to be 10 doubt bot
that he killed his wife and then himself
through jealousy.

Want More AIlners.

From Pottsville Tribune.
1t is said that the Silver Creek Coal Com
pany is experiencing great difficulty in so.
curing enough miners to cut the coal. For
some time past the timber men who work on
the outside were compelled to go into the
mines and help mine the coal. A few years
ago the foreign element were given the
preference in getting work, forcing out tho
skilled and experienced miners, who moved
with their families to other parts of the
country. Now, after some bad and costly &C
cidents and wrecks. the companies who did
this are only too glad to take back all the
miners they barred out. This state Of affairs
exists not only with this one company, but
with nearly all in this region.
