HANDSOME SUM
REALIZED BY DAUGH thS ON
GEN. GORDON's LECTURE.
1t Will Be Used to Remove Bodies OF

REV. VIM. 6. THOMPSON.
Preaching Every Day at p. m. and
8 .. m. at Methodist Church.

Rev. VIM. F. Thompson, of Little
Rock. preached a strong and eloquent
sermon last night on the Bible, THE
book of God, and the god of books.
He maintained that the Bible has in
it the truth which is the basis of
righteousness, that no great conduct
can be expected without great princi-
Piles and that no great principles can
be gotten except from the Bible. The
Bible speaks with authority once for
all Any book on science is out Of
date when fifteen years old, but the
Bible is more full of meaning and
more suited to the needs of the time
than ever before. 1t has spoken the
last word upon the subject of right
eous conduct and character. This is
an age of reStlessness. when mon are
in a hurry to get rich and are clam
oring after the practical. The great
doctrines are decried If men have
some great doctrine in their hearts
they can regain their equilibrium after
disturbance. but without that this
restlessness will continue American
unrest and sordidness are due largely
to the fact that We have betrayed God
at the most critical point in our lives
by shutting the Bible out of the public
schools. Failure in religious effort
and struggle is due largely to ignor-
ance of the b.ule.
The audiences are growing and
those who attend are delighted with
the sermons Of this very talented
man.

bad cut on the head. The man was
alive but soon died. He was later

over both legs, just above the ankles.
Clue to his identity was given by a
Liverlnore Falls firms trade mark in
his hat.

Bodies Recovered.

Park City, Utah, July 16.-Two pow.
der magazines at the 1900 foot level O.
the Daly-West silver mines exploded
about l o'clock this morning. causing
a loss of life which is estimated from
40 to so.
AT 10 o'clock, SO bodies had been re-
covered. Estimates of the dead re.
manning ranged from s to Is
The 1900 level of the DAILY West cor
responds to and is connected by tun-
mel with the 600 level of the Ontario
In the Daly-West mine between 10C
and $50 men were at work. In the On
tario there were nearly 100, it is be-
lieved. 1t is not known how many OF
these are dead, but the disaster ex-
tends to the Ontario, as the noxious
gases that have been freed are known
to be the cause of several of the deahs.
The presence of these gases leads many
miners to believe that the powder was
burned and that the explosion was nos
the chief cause of the disaster.
There are two powder magazines at
the 12O0-foot level of the DAILY West,
one at each side of the shaft, with 4
capacity of from one to two cars of
powder each. A car of powder was
added to the supply within the last
few days. Three dead men have been
taken out of the Ontario shaft. 1t is
believed all three We're suffocated.
The explosion was 50 tremendous
that it awakened everyone within a
radius of several miles. AS an eX-
ample of its awful force, it is said
that two horses in the ore tunnel, one
and a half miles away were killed by
it.
Women and children are thronging
to the Ontario shaft house, which is
midway between Park City and the
Daly-W West. Nearly all of them have
husbands or fathers in the mines and
their grief is pitiable. All of the doc
tors in town are at the mines and are
doing what they can to resuscitate the
unconscious men as they are taken
out.
1t is difficult to obtain information
down town, as the telephone to the
mine has failed.
Members of a relief party who went
into the Ontario mine shortly after the
explosion occurred have not yet re-
turned and fears are entertained for
their safety.
