Thompson's DefRlcatIon.

Fort Huron, Mich, Jan. 25.-Suit
has been begun by the supreme tent
Of the Knights of the Maccabees,
against the Port Huron savings bank
TO recover judgment in the sum of
100000. The actual amount which
the plaintiffs seek TO recover is but
$4,000. This action Is the result OF
the recent troubles precipitated upon
the supreme tent by G. ID. Thomp-
son, the self-confessed defaultening
finance keeper OF the order.
Thompson was also teller of the
Port Huron savings bank, and the
suit is an outgrowth OF alleged
manipulation of the funds of the or.
der through the bank.

WAS SIMPLY TERRIFIC.
The Effects of the Explosion Retard-
ed the Work of Rescue.

Lost Creek, Ia, Jan. 25.-In the ac-
cident of Friday the effect was SIM
ply terrific. The tracks were torn up
and the guides for the cages were
blown away. On this account they
could not be used to ventilate the
mine Immediately. All the entry
doors were blown completely out, and
no system of ventilation could be ar
ranged until the doors were replaced
by volunteers, and II was almost GER
tain death to 60 into the mine.
AS soon as the cages could be OPP
Grated, volunteers stepped forward.
The first man TO enter the mine was
Jap Trimbrell, general superintend-
ent of the mine. He was eagerly fol-
lowed by many others, who took their
turns in going to the relief Of the
victims. AS soon as the mine was
fully explored 20 dead bodies were
found. Coroner Foehlinger of Oska-
loosa was on the ground and took
charge of the dead bodies. He caused
them to be taken to the company's
store about a mile distant. Here an
improvised morgue was established
and the bodies were received wrapped
in blankets. The coroner did not
deem it advisable TO expose them to
the view of the crowd.
The Lost Creek mine, where the ac-
cident occurred, is about ten miles
south and one mile east of Os<aloosa,
and three miles northeast of Eddy
Vile. 1t is owned by the Lost Creek
Coal and Mining Co., of which c. E.
Laughlin, II. L. Spencer, JEFF Tim
brell, f. Z. Green and D. S. Ellis are
the chief stockholders. The proper
ty has been successfully operated q
number of years. The shaft where
the accident is No. 2, and has been
operated about eighteen months. 1t
has been thought perfectly safe. The
ventilation is perfect. the only pos
sible fault ever found being that it
was little dusty at times.
The explosion occurred east and
north of the shaft. in the east entries,
and almost all in that part of the
mine were killed or hurt. All the mi
ners on the west side escaped injury
and got out of the mine; in fact,
some did not know of the accident
till called on for help.

shown the mechanism has been simpli.
fed to such q degree that 1t can no
longer be used for an excuse OF high
cost; in fact, this machine can he sold
cheap enough to bring 1t within the
reach Of many printers and others who
could not afford the high-priced count
ing machines hitherto sold. In the
picture the end Of the casing Is cut
away to show the interior to better ad'
vantage. The end walls Of the casing
carry the loosely mounted shaft, and
only the right-hand disc is fast to the
shaft. The fitting arm is loosely pivoted
and is provided with weight at the
rear to return the lever after the revo'
luton Of the press or other machine
has drawn 1t down. At each down.
ward stroke a pawl on the vertical
arm Of the lever revotves the unit
disc one notch, the remaining discs
remaining stationary by reason OF the
locking bar shown beneath the disc.
On each disc there Is q projecting
pin, and each locking bar has q pro-
jccting finger extending in line with
the path of the pin on the next disc.
As the pin engages the finger 1t de-
presses the locking par clear OF the
notch, anc the disc being free It re-
wolves one point with the shaft being
actuated by its own weight and fric'
tional contact with the shaft. Thus
ut each complete revolution Of disc
its pin releases the locking bar Of the
next higher disc long enough for 1t to
move forward one notch, when the bar
again locks It until the pin has made
Its next revolution. Harry r. Heal is

RENAISSANCE STITCH.
One Of the New and Well-Nlgh Ubi-
quitous Stitches.

Bon Ton gives this sample Of the new
renaissance stitch. which serves ad-
mirably In rows by way Of trimming or
rs q means Of joining seams IN skirt
or bodice, Just as does the ever admired
but patfence-desroying hemstitching.
The stitch is made with q twisted
embroidery silk. As the sample shows
the material must be turned In on both
edges about one-quarter Of an inch
deep. Then the material must be
basted to brown manila paper. leaving
the space desired between generally
one.half inch. Any space desired can
be used. The space must be positively
even. The material Is then stitched on
the edges to the paper. The stitch is
made by putting the needle through the
folded edge Of the material from one
edge to the other. Be very careful to
keep the spaces one-eighth Of an inch
apart. After the straight stitch across
Is made the length Of the seam. the
loop stitch drawing the straight
stitches together must be made.
To make this stitch pass the needle
through The centre Of three straight
stitches. Be sure the needle goes
through the silk Of oil three stitches.
