Mine Inspector II. o. Prytherch, of
the Second anthracite mining district,
has just completed his annual report
for this inspection district. which will
be sent to the secretary OF internal af-
fairs for publication at once.
The report contains the usual statis-
ties pertaining to the production of
coal the number of accidents during
the past year, and much other general
Informal ton concerning the work done
In the mines during the year.
Comparisons of the results of the
preceding year are also made, and
comments offered regarding the man
nor in which the greater part of the
accidents occur. Many practical sug-
Eestions are made regarding the de-
fects iii mining which have come under
his notice during the past year while
| making inspections and Investigations
recommendations are also made per-
tanning to efforts that should be made
of frequent occurrence in the mining
industry.
GIST OF FACTS.
Tie report embodies the gist of the
facts which are of general public in
terest, and is as follows:
For the year, the following accidents are re-
ported Fatal G3; non.fatal, 1sG; total, 240 The
fatal accidents arc made up as follows: Citizens
SO; aliens 81; nonntal, citizens 11s; aliens, 6S;
| fatal. married, 80; single, 34 non.fatal, married
| SO; single, 81 Seventeen nationalties are rep
| resented by the killed and injured. There is ar
| increase Of fatal and 81 non.fatal accidents
over the list for 1900.
PRODUCTION FOR 1901.
| The total production in tons for the year is
S,674 06O which is made up OF the following three
items:
| Shipped by railroad to market ....... 1,0s3,3l:

A GREAT OPPORTUNITY
Two Wonders Of the Age will be Ex-
hlbIted at the Opera House,
Thursday Night, Dec.I ID,

Winter Bros. Biograph Kings Of the
world are billed for one night perform
ance at the opera house Thursday night
Dec. 18th. BY those who understand
what the Great Polyphones and Nam
mouth exhibition Biographs are, the
performance Is looked forward too with
mnch pleasure. We regret that the two
great machines carried by this company
are by mistake sometimes classed with
the phon ograph and kaleidoscope that
have 30 often been exhibited through
out the country, one OF which recently
gave performance In this city. To
those who do not understand the differ

Taxes for 1902.

In the commissioners proceedings
published this week will be found
the various tax levies for 1902 which
will have to be paid next year, and
good news is contained therein for
most every section of the county and
especially for the taxpayers of La
mar. All of the levies have been
cut more or less except the state
levy, and as fully one third has been
chopped off the assessed valuation
by Assessor Rosacrans, there will be
a material saving to the taxpayers
of all sections of the county.
Last year the levy for county pnr
poses was II mills and has been cut
to 13 mills this year The levy for
all school purposes in the Lamar
district was II mills last year and is
81 mills this year. Lamar city taxes
have been reduced to % mills this
year and this with the state levy of
4 mills makes g total Of 53a mills

1908 CROP OF cAmrALovPEs.
Lyons 4 Co9gins Given the BusI-
ness Of Ten Associations for
the Next Season.

Representatives from ten melon
growers associations of the valley
assembled at the hotel Ell CAPTAIN
on Tuesday and were met by l.. NJ.
Lyon. of New York, aod NJ. O Cog
gins Of Pittsburg. In a very brief
time contract was made for hand
ling of the crop of the ten associa
tons for the season cf 1903. The
terms are the same as last year--on
Z commission of 12a per cent. The
3nly variation from last years con
tract is that Lyon g. Coggins will
purchase all crates from the manu-
facturers. By buying in such large
quantities lower prices can be secur'
ed. There is no profit to Lyon &
Coggins in this part of the business,
all crates being billed direct to the
various associations at the contract
price by the manufacturers.
This will be the fourth year that
this firm has handled the bulk of
the cantaloupe crop of the valley and
the satisfaction their business meth
DDS have given the growers explains
the ease with which this new con-
act was made. In all their deal
ings with the growers there has been
an absence of friction, and good
profits at this end of the line-and
presumably the same at the eastern
terminus of the business. Sugges-
tions for change Of eastern repre-
sentatives was met by the almost
unanimous opinion that it was best
to stick to those who had done so
we'll IN the past rather than take any
risks.

resented by Lyon & Coggins receiv-
ed a net cash income of from 30
cents to S1.01 per standard crate

by passing these photograph rapidly be-
fore powerful magnifying lens, under
an electrical influence, 1 can reproduce
every movement, every action, just as it
occurred before the camera. and to prove
this theory he gave US the small ma
chine comonly known as the Kineto-
scope. The phonograph and kaleidoscope
were Mr.. Edison's experimental ma
chimes. and although considered wonder
full they were in many ways very imper
feet. The phonograph had nasal or
metallic sound, words spoken by it were
indistinct and It's music lacked volume.
The public in kindly way said to Mr..
Edison, your two machines, the phono-
graph and kaleidoscope prove conclusive
ly that sound and motion can be repro
duced, and we believe it is within the
power Of inventive genus TO give us
ograph, something more intensely vivid
than the kinetoscope.
The great inventor has at last re-
sponded TO the demands of the world by
giving us the Great Poloyphone and the
mammoth exhibition Biograph. These
machines are the product OF yeas Of

er with lavish expenditure of capital,

to mechanical and electrical science.

him to wondering what Is

ing the past summer a conspicuous
dark spot has made its appearance in
the southern hemisphere Of the planet,
and its motions are being studied with
much interest by astronomers. Some
twelve years ago a similar spot sud-
denly sprang into view and drifted,

brated great red spot it seemed to be
driven from it's course and afterward
