Effort to Get 1t For San Francisco.
Opening Exercises Held Yesterday.

Washington, Oct. There are
five places mentioned for the next
encampment Of the Grand Army:

Daniel E. Sickles, of New York, and
General Thomas J. Stewart, Of Norris

Many trainloads of people had ar
rived during the day and it is now
quite certain that the anticipations
of an exceptionally large attendance
will be realized.
Washington, Oct. 1.-THE cere,
monies incident to the beginning of
the thirty-sixth encampment Of the
Grand Army of the Republic, which
commenced here yesterday, were
varied in character, and mostly only
semi-oficial. The only formal pro-
ceeding Of the day was the dedication
of Camp Roosevelt, the tent city on
the White House grounds, which will
be the headquarters of the several
corps organizations during the week
The ceremonies there consisted Of a
number Of addresses by men Of ma
tional reputation, the chief speech be-
ing delivered by Secretary Hay.
For the rest, the old soldiers busted
themselves largely in renewing the
acquaintance Of 40 years and in man
ifesting their appreciation of the vel
come extended to them by the Capital
City. Of this welcome they found
generous evidences on every hand.

icatiOn ceremonies at Camp Roose.
welt included fine regatta on the
Potomac, an attractive automobile pa
rade. an interesting procession by the
Red Men of this city and neighboring
cities, and camp fires last evening.

dreds of callers.

Two men lie seriously injured to-
night at the Glendale hospital the
result of an explosion Of an engine

Mile Siding, this afternoon. En-
CINE 2o8 left this city little after I
O'Clock this afternoon when the

engine completely. Henry Knight.

was badly cut on the forehead and
his eyes injured. The track was torn
up for 900 yards by the force ofthe
explosion and the engineer was
blown from the cab upon the hill
side for distance Of fifty feet. The
engine was old and worn out and
could not carry the pressure. The
injured are expected 70 recover, but
the ease Of Owens Is very doubtful.
He inhaled the steam from the
boiler and received injuries inter
nally which may prove fatal. c.
Capell was the only man that es-
capped uninjured. He was the
brakeman on the train aud was
thrown for distance of thirty feet

Few people can understand the feel
ings of the pugilist as he is being counted
out. He hears the seconds licked of.
He struggles to rise, but struggles IN

There are some who are making a
losing fight for life that can appreciate
this; those whose lungs are diseased.
With every tick of the watch, they know
that they are being counted out.
The great question is how can quick
rally be made to continue the fight

answer in the use of DIR. Pierce's Golden

unslilfully treated may find a fatal

A runaway horse aud n scared boy

streets few days ago.
Mr.. Noble Craig, living about two
and one-half miles from Nebo, lives
in the oldest house now standing in
this vicinity. 1t was built about the
year 1920 by Arthur Smith of hewed
logs 30 #. in length, is two stories
high and in good state of preserva-
ton. The lumber used in laying the
floor and stairway was sawed by
hand. The first roof, we are inform
ed, was Of shingles made by hand,
with holes bored through them with
a gimlet and put on with wooden
pegs. All the nails used in building
were made by hand.
In conversation with Mr.. Richards,
the manager for G. f. Birke, he said
that Nebo was the highest market
for loose tobacco in the United
States; that the average price paid
for tobacco was higher than at any
other point. This speaks well for
our tobacco growers.
Prof. Ferguson went to Madison

Thos. Longstaff, who has the rep
utation of being one of the best all
round men we have in this end of
Kentucky at work in the mines, is
now at work in the Victoria mine,
looking after the timbering. He
speaks we'll of the vein in that mine
and says it is about five feet, five
inches in thinkness and of good
quality.
The Hecla mine is now coming to
the front under the management of
the st. Bernard company. An av-
erage of twenty cars per day is now
produced at that mine.
Engineer James Kilroy, of the
Hecla mine, has been a sufferer
from severe attack of the grip for
two weeks past, but hopes to be able
tor work soon.
So rushed is d. w. Umstead with
work that both day and night crew
have been kept busy for sometime,
and the boys say he wants them to
answer roll call also on Sunday, so
eager is he to catch up with his
work.
Sampson Plat, who has been
quite feeble of late, is now able to
walk around. Mr.. Plat found the
work at Barnsley as weigher, be-
fore the new scales were put in, too
heavy for him and resigned.
Foreman James Fegan, who has
charge of the coke shipping, says
the demand has been so heavy of
late that the surplus has been en-
entirely exhausted and that a car
load of coke can not be found on the
yard.
The shipment Of coal the past
week has been very large from this
county. Last Saturday one hum
dred and nineteen cars were for
warded from this point and one day
last week the shipment of coal and
coke from this place alone was sew
enty-two cars. At other mines in
the county the work has shown up
in the same proportions.
The rumor is afloat that the min
eral rights of a large body of land
in this and adjoining counties have
lately been bought up by syndicate
in which some of Hopkins county
citizens are interested.
At the meeting to be held at In
dIanaI oils this week by the u. M.
W., demand will be made upon
the mine operators for An increase
in the scale of wages. But a lead
ing coal operator says this move
will be made solely for the purpose
of meeting proposed reduction,
many cf the mine owners now claim
ing that coal is being produced at a
cost which cuts off all profit There
is but little sympathy for the coal
operator, who has from time to time
allowed this order to so encroach on
his rights as to rob him of even
fair per cent profit, and now that he
is in the hole the U. M. w. will turn
deaf ear to HIM.
The report is out that half dozen
members of the U. M. w. have
armed themselves with guns and
taken up refuge at Boxtown, appar-
emily for the purpose of again at

in that region.

Charms Of a Full, Well
Rounded Throat.
SIMPLE EXERCISES
COLD WATER AND BRISK RUB
BING MAKE FIRM FLESH.
What the Swan Throat Of q Duchess
Has Done to Revolutionize Fashion
in Smart London Society.

Written for The Evening Star.
Even more than the complexion do the
neck and throat need care bestowed upon
them, that they may be full and rounded
and retain their beautiful and artistic
curves.
Devotion to certain exercises is necessary,
and fortunately the muscles of the neck are
as susceptible of development as any muscle
of the body. Many of the movements sug-
gested for securing plump, firm outlines
also give the head graceful poise.
The first tiny signs of approaching age
are seen in the fine wrinkles on the throat
under the chin; massage and certain move
ments are the best treatmen In massag-
ing use an emolient, and, placing the three
first fingers of each hand on the chin. as
shown in the first illustration, rapidly and
firmly draw the fingers out in the direction
Of the ears, gradually increasing the ra-
pidity of the movements.
For developing the muscles on the sides
of the neck put the palm Of the right hand
on the right side of the head, near the top,
and press the head hard against the hand,
at the same time making little resistance
with the hand-that is, push little with the
Land against the head, but allow the
muscles to overcome the resistance by fore
ing the head sideways over the right shoul-
der.
Repeat this several times. and then
change to the left hand and to the left side
Of the neck.
To exercise both muscles at the same
