Among the big mine owners and min ing companies in the Pennsylvania coal regions there is considerable discus system of telephones all through the underground workings, for use in cases Of emergency, as we'll as for the trans action of daily business. This means of communication would be great help to rescuers in the case of search for comrades accidentally buried under ground through cave-ins or explosions. It Is believed that the companies will adopt some such system.

Delightful Trips to Mexico.

With the birth of the new century,
the passenger department of the popu-

Our people are fast awakening to
the attractions of our sister republic

and pleasure is rapidly increasing to

effectively? The majority of our read

pressed in our Akron papers by Mr..

date that the opinions first appeared
in the Akron newspapers he was again
interviewed and gave the following
for publication:
"In the spring Of 1896, | stated

DINING ROOM SPLENDOR.
London's Latest Table Decorations.
Scarlet For Color, Gold For Plate.

The dinner table in London for gala
occasions this winter will be tht most
magnificent seen for many long day.
Not only is scarlet TO be the favorite
color for flowers, centerpieces and bon
bons, but gold is to be used instead of
silver plate, says the London Mail. The
fashionable flower Is nerine, spiked
scarlet blossom on tall stem.
Only on the tables of the very
wealthy will this magnificence be met,
though even in moderately lowered
houses little touches Of gold in the
shape of saltcellars, pepperettes and
mustard pots will certainly be the win
ter novelty, so many and so lovely are
the ones being sold in the shops now.
The reason gold is coming into fashion
again is that silver is so very inexpen-
slve that people who aforetimes were
satisfied with it as a possession now
order gold instead.

length of time and after removing
them from the water put salt on one
of them and none ON the other. The
