A private letter from Grandma
billiard, dated Ecru, Miss, brings the
word that her son, W. c. Nowlin,
died Oct. 4th from injuries received
by a cotton gin, on the 9th day of
Sept. He vas attending the machine
when both hands We're caught and
frightfully mangled. On October LIST
his right arm was amputated and
though they had several physicians
and trained nurses in attendance, and
all that possibly could be was done
his death occurred at noon on the 4th
inst.
MI. Nowlin was at one time a resi-
dent of Fort Steele and Rawlins and
is well known by many Of the people
of both places as an honest, consci-
entious man. His father was killed
at the same age by injuries received
from a circle saw.
The funeral was conducted by the
Masonic fraternity, of which body he
was an honored member, and was the
largest ever held in that county.
The family have many friends in
this country who will regret to hear
of this untimely death and who will
sincerely ~sympathise with the be-
reaved family and stricken mother,
who is now in her s4th year.

School Boys With SIX Shooters.

Some of the small boys at school
have created CONSERVATION in their
ranks with a six-shooter. 1t is said
boy was shot through the hand
and another had a narrow escape
from a bullet in his heart, the ball
going between his body and the left
arm. Such matters should be looked
into before loss of life or limb is the
result. The damage which an ire
.sponsible boy can do with a weapon
of that kind is marvellous. A reform
school is a very good asylum for such
fry.

ILLINOIS COAL HIGHER.
Operators Decide to Make % Per
Cent Advance

Operators Decide to Make 25 Per
Cent Advance.
st. Louis, March 2s.-Beginning next
Monday the price of coal from the
Illinois mines VIII be advanced % per
cent on the ton. This sharp advance is
the direct result of the increase in the
miners wages recently agreed to at the
conference. Another cause is that the
amount of coal mined will be one-fifth
less than at the present time.
This condition is also the result of the
agreement between the operators and
miners in reference to the eight hour
day turnout Illinois. Heretofore many
of the mines were operated ten hours
per day, but under the new scale none
will run over eight hours.
The advance in wages was decided at
the national meeting held last fall. and
ratified at the recent Springfield meet
ing. This advance goes into effect Sun
day and is as follows:
Top and bottom labor, 20 per cent.
Dead work (repairing of tracks, etc.),
2l.2 per cent.
Pick mining, 9 cents a ton.
Machine mining, cents ton.
According to the local coal dealers
the notice Of the advance has been is
sued and future contracts will be based
upon the new order Of things.
