MINE DISASTER.
Explosion of Ga. in a Pennsylvania
Colliery Kills Five Men
Nine Injured,

Wilkesbarre, Pa, Oct. 2s.-A terrific
explosion of gas occurred in the But.
tonwood mine of the Parrish Coal com.
pany, situated one mile south of this
city, late Friday afternoon, which
caused the death of five men and the in
jury of nine others. The killed are:
Ebenezer Williams, first assistant
foreman; Conner Williams, second as.
sistant foreman; Thomas Guest, com.
pany hand; Thomas Price, track layer;
w. S. Phillips, inspector. Directly
after the explosion occurred number
of rescuers, at the risk of their lives,
entered the mine, filled with dangerous
after damp, and brought out the bodies
of the dead and injured.

the earth. All Of this apparatus was
carried in wagon when not in use.
Packing and unpacking, setting up
and taking down, therefore, required
time and trouble. Marconi has now
found a way to avoid. this incon-
venience. In combination with an au-
tomobile designed he has produced a
special self-propelled vehicle in which
his instruments are ready for use at
all times. It is travelling telegraph
station. This automobile is driven
by steam, the favorite motive agent
with Englishmen. It carries storage
batteries to operate his instruments
and seats for the operators.
The most curious feature Of the
vehicle is an enormous funnel which
it carries, and which folds backward
on the roof of the carriage when not
in use. When messages are to be
sent the funnel is raised to q YER
teal position. One of the many inn
provements which Marconi has, made
IN his apparatus is the substitution

first employed. The thing which

NORTH DAKOTANEWS

Reports received from the western part
st tho state and some Of the Intervening
points are to the effect that Q large NUM-
.bee Of disastrous prairie Ares have besn
raging In that direction for the past few
days. and thousands Of dollars' worth Of
range hay has been destroyed, together
rirh many ranch buildings. The worst
fre seems to have been burning over the
section Of country north and west Of
White Earth. a small place west Of
Minot. where thousands Of acres Of fine
grass has been burned together with
practically all the hay that was put up
this year by the ranchmen for feeding
their cattle during the winter months
during any severe storm periods. It 10
stated that Hankey Brothers, the largest
ranchmen In that section, are the
heaviest losers. all their range hay hav-
ing been destroyed together with all their
buildings which were very substantial.
Another serious loss to those who have
taken land In that part of the state dur
ing the past year or two is the destruc-
ton Of nearly all the claim shanties. 1t
Is known that over 40 Of them have been
burned by the fire which burned over the
Hankey ranch, and in addition to this
will be the number that have been de-
stroyed by other fires which have been
raging near Towner and Knox. stations
this side of Minot.

Nearly Killed.

A young child Of Gottlieb Klein was
nearly killed near Washburn. The
parents went on visit to neighbors,
leaving this year old child alone at
the cabin to crawl around with Its own
sweet will. Unfortunately for the tot
as directly in the rear of the house was
an ash hole about two feet deep in which
hot ashes are thrown from the stove to
lessen the danger from outside fire. In
exploring the infant crawled UP to the
edge of the hole. and baby like-fell into
1t. Just before leaving. the mother had
put a pan full of hot ashes in the hole
which was to bring excruciating torture
for two hours to her baby, for that was
the space of time it lay among the ashes
roasting like chestnut until It's stified
means attracted the attention of the re-
turning parents. The child will recover.

fully constructed than one Of these
beetles nests.
The so-called birch tree beetles Or.
eel at work of this kind. Beetles
which infest vineyards also roll leaves
in like manner, but, owing to the size
and shape of the leaves of the vine,
rarely succeed in doing very artistic
work. Moreover, they do not join
the leaves together by means Of q
sort of glue, as is the custom Of the
birch tree beetles, but use instead
a cotton fiber which they gather from
the buds on the vines.
Other beetles closely akin to these
do not roll leaves in this manner,
and, on the other hand, there are
beetles Of quite different families
which frequently make such nests.
An example of the former kind is
the sloe tree beetle, which lays its
eggs on the fruit Of this tree, and an
example of the latter kind is tho
nut tree beetle, which also rolls
leaves into the shape of cigar, but
not in quite the same manner % tho
birch tree beetle.
The reason why it works different
is because it is differently construct.
ed. A very curious insect it is, with
a red body, q very long neck and .
head which is so small that it is al.
most invisible. Under these condi-
tions it is naturally difficult for il
to grasp q leaf and roll it into Q
circular form, as the birch tree beetle
does. Still, it does the work after
its own fashion, and though hardly
as faultless structure as the birch
tree beetles q very neat piece Of
work it is.-N. Y. Herald.

large stateroom, where he will sleep
alone. except for tutor who occu-
pies bed near by, but even this is
in an adjoining room. SO that the lit
tie prince will lie down to sleep and
dream without human companion
ship. In accordance with ancient
Portuguese custom a tried and trust
ed valet will sleep across the doom
sill upon the outside of the door
way, so that no one can enter with
out disturbing the faithful retainer.
The young prince is very clever
child and full of mischief. He inher-
its the brilliant talents and the
beauty of his lovely mother, Queen
Amelie. whose features are of rare
type. The prince is well schooled
and speaks many languages. He has
tactics and, contrary to his far-oft
neighbors, the German princes, knows
little or nothing about firearms. This
knowledge will be included In his
new training and he will shortly ride
out with the marksmen to shoot at
mock game, then at real. He is an
excellent rider and performs many
feats of daring.
The kings of Portugal have all been
students and little Louis Philippe will
be encouraged to tread the path Of
learning, a road to which he has not
been thus far greatly inclined. His
new training starts in at once and
from this time on his royal highness
will be not a boy, but a man.
Among the coming eligibles Portu-
gals future king must be counted in,
for he is very rich child through
his mothers dover right. which de-
sends to him and his brother, and
as ruler of Portugal he will receive
the largest income in proportion to
the size of the kingdom and the nec-
essary expenditures of any ruler in
Europe.

WIRELESS TELEcRAPHY.
For Army Use the Necessary Appar.

Form Of Automobile.

The special value of the system Of
telegraphy with which Marconi's
name is SO indissolubly connected is
that messages can be sent thereby
to and from moving objects. Hence
the introduction of wireless tele-
graphic instruments on naval vessels
in. Great Britain. But there is as
much need for telegraphic con1muni-
cation in the army as in the navy,
probably more. And the utility and
feasibility of the Marconi system
were admirably illustrated in the late
war in South Africa.

sChief.

Cipriano Castro. president of vene.
xuela, is the most unhappy ruler in the
world. No oriental sovereign lives in
such constant dread of Assassination
as does this dictator Of so-called re-
public.
The dictator has the face Of tired
man, eyes of the ferret, mouth of
cruelty. By temperament he is nerv-
ous,. irritable. inpatient. his excita bill
ity finding expression principally in his
thumbs. Of government he has shown
that he knows as much as chief of
bandits.
That which Castro most fears is not
earthquake, not nature. but human
kind. We're hezto camp on thelsummit
of Vesuvius the uncertainty of the
prolongation of his career could not
be greater than it is as the dictator
ofVenezuela. The country over which
he rules is volcano and Caracas is its
crater. One day last year. in the
Prado, maintained Lopez fred pis-
toll point blank in Castro's face. By q
miracle the bullet went astray. When
the would-be ASA ssin was brought be-
fore Castro, the dictator ierked his
thumb toward the door, and Lopez was
thrown into that black hole of Caracas,
the Rotunda. Recently, when the judge
of the superior court inspected the
prison. none of the prison authorities
could remember having seen Lopez
after the first days of his incarcera-
ton. Escaped" said the governor of
the prison. but offered no proofs. The
verdict of Caracas, when the Judge
told the tale. was: Murdered and
buried in the jail" Perhaps Castro
had jerked his thumb downward.
Castro's own soldiers love him not
'He took away our thin uniforms -

diers. Besides, he seldom pays us. So
he is glad when We desert. simply put
ting new men in our places" The Of
fcers of Castro's army, however, make
no complaint. For every time the die
tator uses the military as the instru-
ment for making golden haul the Off
GERS get the drippings. To illustrate:
Last fall the soldiers reported that
three rich Caracas merchants were
boarding gold within their homes. The
dictator ordered that each of these
men be taxed 100000 for the Support
Of the government" The merchants
refused to pay. Castro turned them
over to, certain army officers, who, hav-
ing made them prisoners, kept them
tied to stakes facing the sun all day
and facing an electric light as fiercely
bright as the sun all night. Half blind
ed and almost crazed by their suffer-
ings. they at last yielded and paid the
'.tax."
Another case was not quite so profit
able, either to Castro or his military
staff. A German merchant arrived in
Caracas and proceeded to collect bills
payable to the amount of $4,000 in
cash. Castro not only forbade the Ger
man to take the money out of the
country, but demanded that it be paid
over for government support" The
man was arrested and tortured until
he understood that it was his money
or his life. and so led the soldiers to
the place where the treasure was hid
den.
"A few weeks later one of the kaiser's
cruisers put in at Laguayra. and the
captain hurried over to Caracas and de-
manded not only the S12. 200. but the
punishment of the officers who had
maltreated German subject. Castro,
livid of face, liquidated on the spot and

with suspicious. untrusting eyes. For
the dictator has more than once openly
asserted that If he could he would an
null all concessions, of land granted to
Foreigners by his predecessors. and
sell the same over again to Others.
He actually did annulf concessions en-
joyed by the various Orinoco river
companies-all American concerns.
But he has not yet succeeded in selling
these over again.

THE FATIGUE BACILLUS.
Newspapers Writers DO Not Seem 70
Take Prof. Gautier's Recent
Discovery Seriously.

Science, which has way Of upset.
ting old theories, has come to the re.
lief of the lazy man. Instead Of be-
ing personally responsible for his
condition it appears that he is really
the victim of disease, caused by the
fatigue bacillus specimens of
which have been isolated and exam
ined by Prof. Gautier, member Of
the French Institute of Sciences. Ac.
cording to the professor, the fa.
tigue bacillus can be easily exter-
minated by the use of disinfectants,
so that we may soon expect to see
fatigue institutes starting up all over
the country to which the constitute
tionally lazy may be sent for treat
ment. Before the discoverer Of the
fatigue nicrobe can be absolutely
certain that he is on the right track
he should experiment with half q
dozen specimens of the great Amer
lean tramp family. If by incubation
or any other course Of treatment he
can provoke in "Dusty Rhodes"
"Weary Walker" and others of tho
same class healthy appetite for
saving wood or hoeing potatoes he
will be hailed with gratitude as q
great benefactor of the race. The
new cure for laziness should also
have q great sale among wives who
are forced to support their families
by taking in washing while their
abler-bodied husbands writhe under
the awful ravages of the fatigue ba.
cillus. In fact, there are endless
uses for the remedy. Even men who
suffer from nothing more severe than
occasional attacks Of "that tired
feeling will be glad on occasion to
use the wonderful elixir of tho
French professor. A bottle Of it
will be kept in every household. The
children will be given dose of it
before they start for school; the mis-
tress will revive her failing energies
with it if she has been out to ball
the night before; the maids will find
it q sovereign remedy for tired
nerves and muscles, and every meme
Der Of the family will use it daily.
Unless the Importance of Prof.
Gautier's remedy has been exag-
gerated he seems to have discovered
the long sought palliative Of the pri.
NAL curse of man.-Chicago Tribune.
