DEATH IN A MINE.
Awful Result of n Dust Explosion In

Fire Creek, w. Va, March THE
most disastrous mine explosion ever
known in the New River district oc-
Cured at the Red Ash mine shortly
after the miners went to work early
Tuesday morning. Although the most
heroic work of the rescuing party has
been going on necessarily, it is i'm
possible yet to estimate the full ex-

The explosion happened as the men
were going into the mine, in groups
and in couples in some instances, and
they were strung along in this man.
ner for over a mile, so that the work
of rescue will require a long time.
There were more men near the en-
trance who escaped than were lost.
The general belief is that the ex-
plosion' occurred by contact with dust
when the miners entered with their
lights and that it was not due to fire
damp, as has been currently reported.
Charleston, w. Va. March 1870
far 30 bodies have been taken from
the Red Ash mine, six of which were
recovered Friday morning. From the
best information obtainable the num-
Der in the mine at the time of the
explosion was AZ, and no one has the
slightest hope that any of those re-
naming are alive.

are striving to hold prices without regard
to present demand, hoping that the needs
OF the consumers may prevent reaction anu

WOULD HAVE PEACE.
President Kruger Communicates
with Salisbury as to Terms He
Is willing to Accept.

London, March 10. = Late Friday
afternoon it was learned that the
peace rumors were founded on the
fact that President Kruger has APP
pealed to Lord Salisbury for cessa-
ton OF hostilities, Offering at length,
by cable, the terms which he is will
ing to accept. These, however, are not
taken seriously, as they include prac-
tically nothing more than what the
Iransvaal government offered prior
to the issuing of the British ulti-
matum.
Official circles here regard the prop
ositions as merely ruse of the Beers
to gain time and dc not consider that
President Kruger is yet ready to con-
slider the sweeping demands which
Great Britain will make as reimburse
ment for the loss of life and great ex-
penditure.
1t was understood that President
Kruger's advances had met with an
emphatic rejection at the hands of
Lord Salisbury, who is believed to
have said that no such attempt to re-
tain the independence of the Trans
vaal can be considered for a moment
by the British government.
London. March 10.-The Daily Mail

smallpox, throughout different Sec
tons of the country has been traced
by physicians and sanitarians in many
instances directly to the moldy and
rotting layers of paper and paste
which cover the walls of many houses.
The practice OF. laying layer after
layer of paper on wall, using COM
mon flour paste, is especially calcu-
lated to create homes for disease
germs. People could not do more to
effect such result if they tried. Tho
rotting vegetable matter affords caves
from which are ready to dart forth
the infection at every opportunity.
There is no excuse for this practice,
as walls apd ceilings can be coated
with pure, clearly and sanitary ma

no greater expense. Alabastine is n
rock-base cement, which Incorporates
itself with the wall or ceiling. 1t is
easily applied, comes ready to mix
with cold water, requires no washing
or scraping before renewing or re-
tinting, is beautiful, long-lasting and

For walls that have been infected,

Some years ago they began supplying

By superior process of color photography
they illustrate many of their goods in natural

the customer hundreds of miles distant TO
select goods at his own freside, knowing by
the description, illustration and price the
class of goods he may expect.
