MINERS MEET DEATH.
III II Virginia Collicry-
Many Injured.

Blueticld, w. Va. Nov. Is. Five
dead bodies have been taken from
the Baby mine at Pocahontas, Va.
Several other persons are unaccount-
ed for and % persons have been res
cucd more or less severely burned.
AT three O'Clock Thursday morning
il was discovered that the Baby mine
of the Pocahontas Collicry company,
at Pocohontas, Va, was on fire. An
alarm was sent in and the fire COM
pany responded promptly. In a very
short time after the fire fighters had
reached the mouth of the mines and
were attempting to eNtinguish the
flames, some of the tircmcn and 9TH
ers having rushed inside the mines
to ascertain the extent of the trouble
and to assist miners entombcd there
in, terrific explosion occurred, and
many miners and their friends we're
more or less injured. 1t is supposed
that the mines caught fire from a
defective electric light wire.
The list of the dead so far rccov-
cred are: Louis Woolwinc, John
Bcrnhart, Will Montgomery, NJ. D..
Koontz and Hungarian named
Urico. Woolwine. Montgomery and
koontz were killed while attempting
to reach and bring out dead body.
At this time it is impossible to secure
the names of those injured. AS yet
it is impossible to estimate the
amount of damage to the mines.

A bright woman of cxpedients, who
wished to carpet her large dining
room with something that would
"wear like iron," but at the same time
be artistic, decided upon Brussels car
peting with a border to match. Real
izing that the border is always the
most expensive, she bought q center
of "hit or miss" Brussels and then
a stair carpcting to match. This last
she cut in two, to serve most excel
lently we'll as border. A man was
employed to make and lay this car
pet, and it's entire cost was just SIS.

that there is hardly salve in the

Cubn,s Dormant Wealth.

Gov. Gen. Wood of Cuba says that
Puerto Principe is good cattle coun-
try. There is also much fine timber
standing in its southern part, and
much entirely undeveloped wealth in
the way of copper and iron ores. As
phalt is another source of riches in
this province. Much of this asphalt
is so fine that it is used not for paw
ing but for the manufacture of var.
nishcs. The asphalt has not yet been
tried for paving, but will be in Ha-
vana. Tremendous deposits of as.
phalt, indeed, exist in many parts of
the island, and there are probably
many which havc mot been discov-
cred. Thee are parts of Cuba, small
as the island is, which have not even
been prospcctcd.
