Good Showing.

The statistics of the state institu-
tions of Minnesota for the fiscal year
1902 show that in support there was
a saving over 1901 Of $4,000. AS a
matter of fact the saving is greater
than that, as part of the 1902 ex-
penses really belong to 1901. The
population of the state institutions
has increased and the increase in the
cost of food has been over 80 per cent.
Notwithstanding these two gains,
there is difference of $92, 1000 in favor
of this year. From this must, of
course, be deducted the cost of the
board of control. Still there is saw
ing of over 100000. This means a re-
duction in the per capita tax of sup
port of nearly one-third, despite the
unfavorable conditions mentioned.

Mission Successful.

The mission of Inspector McLaugh-

successful.
The Indians have agreed to surren-

FATAL GAS EXPLOSION.
Four Killed, Six Badly Wounded,
Others Hurt at stafford Mines.

Fairmont, w. Va, Sept. 22.-Four
men are dead and five others are lying
in different wards at the Miners Hos
pital here suffering from cuts. bruises
and other injuries as result of gas
explosion at a coal shaft, located at
Stafford, this county, to-day.
The dead men are Charles Cook of
this county, aged 80 years; John G..
Williams, Martins Ferry. o., 40 years
old; August A. Mel, jamestown, N. T.,
and Samuel Tarquenis, Italian.
The injured are John Heating of
Pennington, this county; George Jen-
kins, Barrackswlle, this county; J. j.
Wilson, this city; R. H. Moore, Con-
nellsville, Pa, and George Stronskekie,
Union, Pa.
In addition to these, seven more
men are missing and there seems to
be not the slightest doubt that the
men are dead. The superintendent
claims that at the usual hour of COM
mencing operation this morning, six
teen men went to the bottom of the
shaft, which is 280 feet. thence into
their respective rooms of working. The
bodies of but nine of the sixteen men
have been recovered and the remain
ing are unquestionably dead. This
evening a force of men are searching
the mines for the lost bodies, al
though it is. with considerable
difficulty this is being done on account
of the fire and the horrible stencil
from the burning of horseflesh, etc.
The disaster was caused by the gas
from a leaking pipe that extends sew
eral feet back into the shaft being ig-
nited from a lamp carried by one OF
the miners now lying dead.
