about the entrance to the mine shaft
were a mass Of humanity.
No bodies have been recovered since
Saturday, but the work will continue
as long as there is any hope Of re-.

Many of the miners familiar with
those employed there still assert that
at least eight bodies are yet within

were within when the explosion oc.

beneath tons of falling slate. and their

the unfortunates were buried in the

more miners were buried. who met
death in the same mine nearly IL
years ago.
The mine Is still burning fiercely.
and for the past "a hours very little
has been accomplished in the way Of
searching the mine for those that are
still missing. It was supposed on
Saturday night that the fire would
have been under control by yesterday
afternoon. but it was found that a
large amount of pipe and hose was
yet needed in order to reach the fire
The mine officials are sparing neither
effort nor expense in caring for the
injured, burying the dead and extin-
gushing the flames. IL is now hoped
with the relief gangs from other mines

it is hardly probable that It viii be

Money for relief is being raised by

Brdgcvillc, Nov. 1S.-The cunning sea-
son opened ON Friday, and those who
went ont for the game had good days
sport The weather was in n measure
against the most favorable conditions as
"a heavy wind was against the dogs do
ing the best work and then. too. the dry
weather was also against the dogs. Even
with this il was a good days sport. as
the birds are plentiful and many We're
killed.
Some gunners found as many as twelve
covcys while several found eight or nine
c0ycys. Rabbits are not as plentiful as
they have been the past few years. The
cold weather of the past few winters is
doubtless responsible for This. For this
reason there would have been a scarcity
of uuan this season had the State not
have been restockcd with the game bird.

Murdered and Robbed.

Savannah. Ca. Nov. 1S-The body
of S. T. Baker. a Confederate veteran
from Beaufort, S. c.. was found in
Colonial Park yesterday The man
had been murdered. probably about
midnight Mr.. Baker was a collector
for a leading grocery house, and on
Saturday collected $500. This how
ever, he had turned over to his en-
ployers. It is the theory of the police
that some enc knew of his collections
and hoped to find the money on his
person. The body was robbed of a
watch chain and other valuables. and
the pockets were turned wrong side
out. There were evidences of a
struggle. The spot where the body
was found is about midway between
the police station and the county jail,
and is within hailing distance OF both.

Frank N. Todd has an article IN Ans
hes Magazine on the American farmer.
IL Which he says:
when farming was conducted on a
small scale limited to the mere efficiency
Of the farmer and his sons, its interests
were narrow and its circumstances mean.
KS rewards were SO meager that the
hired hand was often better off at the
years end than the man who owned the
land. took the chances and worried away
his digestion over the mortgage. The
generous moods of nature were examples
too expensive to be initiated and close
listed parsimony was exalted as the chief
of the virtues.
To-day that is changed over "a large
area Of the country. On the great
bonanza farms of the West a man with

JEFrERsoNlaN PHILOSOPHY.

In his chivalrous aud eloquent adj
dress at the Academy of Music on
Monday evening introducing Madame
Sarah Grand, Mr.. John Goode made
some timely references to the philoso-
ply Of Thomas Jefferson; and Madame
Grand, in her lecture OH The Art OF
Happiness said among other sensi-
bic things that idieness is at the bot
tom of the vices Of society and iininlical
10 happiness.

brilliant and philosophical English wo-
man has been student OF Mr.. Jcifer-
sons school of philosophy, but the TACT
is that this was one of his cardinal
doctrines and a doctrine Which he
preached and impressed and enforced
