There is a report current today that
his body was among those that have
been taken from the mine, though that
is improbable, as II is stated on the
best authority that can be obtained at
this time that his body must have been
blown to atoms and that not so much
as piece Of IL has yet been picked
up.
KILLED TWO MILES AWAY.
When 1t is stated that horse was
killed at the mouth of the tunnel two
miles away some idea Of the force of
the explosion may be had, The ami

FLEW TO RELIEF,
Officers, Directors and Physicians
Take q Special Train.


As soon as the mine officials and d.
Tectors Of the company were notified
OF the supposed extent Of the disaster
they ordered a special train to be made
ready for a speedy trip to the mining
camp and also requested several ply
sicians to accompany them TO Park
City to render professional assistance.
AT $3.50 this morning the train left the
Rio Grande Western depot and made a
splendid run up into the mountains to
the camp. On board were Messrs.

Thompson, DR., Plummer Mrs Wood
and others. The fact that these gem
tlemen are at the scene Of disaster is
guarantee that no single thing that
may be Of benefit to the sufferNrs viii
be left undone and that the work Of
rescue would not be allowed TO stop for
a moment so long as there was a man
unacoounted for.
All day. since early morning citizens
crowded around the newspaper bulle-
tins and other sources Of information.
eager to learn the latest details Of the
disaster The people were in high
state Of anxiety on account of personal
interest or solicitude because OF posi-
bic bereavement to friends and neigh
bors whose near and dear ones were

Some mines appear to be pursued by
a Nemesis Of accident, but although
the present calamity is OF so serious
nature the record Of the affected mines

At neither OF these great wealth pro-
ducers, each OF which has in It's career

TO awaken public anxiety and interest

six men are dead. Eight escaped by
the way Of the Anchor tunnel Two OF
the dead are rescuers, John Mclaughlin

latter is still in the mine.
RESCUE WORK STOPPED.
When Il was apparent that all the
remaining men In the mine were dead

futile II was stop )ed for the time being

thing be done Ia that direction until
after some Of the deadly gas generated
10y the explosion has passed out Of the
mine. 1t is felt that there are enough
lives lost and that to proceed further
with rescue work at this time Is folly.
A GREAT CHARMED HOUSE,
As the dead were hoisted to the sur
face and laid out they were quickly i'd
entitled by relatives comprising wives,
children, brothers and sisters and
friends. The grief was somewhat aw-
full to behold and anguish was written
on every face, Occasionally the deep
est fear and sorrow would he dissipat-
ed by seeing a dear one come from the
mine unhurt and perfectly safe but fee
quently 1t would be intensified by see
ing that the one for whom they were
waiting and seeking so diligently, was
among the dead. The bodies as they
lay In the night air presented an un-
canny and gruesome spectacle and al
together there was an appearance OF a
great charnel house into and out Of
which hundreds of excited and SORROW
Ing people ran hither and thither like
specters in the night.
BRINGING DOWN THE DEAD.
The task of bringing down the dead
from the mine farther up in the mount
aims was a very sad and painful task.
Twenty bodies were brought down al
together. They were carried In heavy
wagons principally though some lighter
vehicles were pressed into service.
Most of the conveyGnces formed into a
funeral procession and drove down to
the Park. Here preparations are be-
ing made to hold an inquest this after
noon. For that purpose County Attor-
ncy Calls is now on the way from Coal
vile.

Two Kinds of Dreariness.

You hear often from car windows
observers of the ''dreary" desert, the
hopeless" the ''cheerless'' desert.
But the desert deserves none of these
adjectives. 1t is dreadful, if you wish.
in the way in which it Furnishes the ig-
norance and presumption of those who
know not the signs of thirst; it is
sometimes awful in it's passions of
dust, torrents, heat; it is even monot-
onous to those who love only the life Of
crowded cities; but it is never drearv
or cherries. Hopelessness may wei.
apply to the deserts Of Mulberry street
and Smoky Hollow, with their choked
and heated tenements, their foul odors.
their swarms of crowded and hideous
human life; but the desert of the arid
land is eternally hopeful, smiling,
strong, rejoicing in itself. The desert
is never morbid in it's adversity; on the
other hand, it is calm and sweet and
clean-the cleanest of all land. Not

ing towns and his destructive herds.

the south, which is being realized at
this time along commercial and indus
trial lines, it is probable that another
ten years will see the conditions
changed somewhat and more of the
population gathered in cities. It is
more than probable that the sharp d.
vision line between the north and the
south as regards the proportion of
population in the cities and the coun-
try noted above, and emphasized by
the shading of the map, will have been
broken up and some of the southern
states will be taking on more of an ur-
ban flavor.
The per cent OF population living in
cities of $500 to 1900 habitants is
larger in the western division than in
the other four main divisions. which
consist of states in the north Atlantic
division, the south Atlantic division.
the north central division and the
south central division. The leading
states in this respect are Connecticut.

nearly struck, and the city chap and
his country cousin are running a
pretty even race. The influence of COM
mercial facilities is suggested by the
high proportion of urban population
about New York harbor, in Louisiana
and in the Pacific states.
Perhaps the main inference from the
shaded map is precise and emphatic
indicat ton of the contrast between the
south on the one hand and the north
and west on the other. Disregarding
the border states of Delaware, Mary
land and Kentucky, every southern
state but Florida and Louisiana has less
than one-fifth of its population in cit
les. In every northern state as far
west as the great plains, more than
one-ffth of the population live in cit.
les. With the great development in

dents of country districts. That
the proportions are such is a most en-
couraging and hopeful sign of the fu-
ture of the United States.
In this classification of urban and
rural, the line between the two should
be clearly defined, else the figures and
diagrams of this article would be con-
fusing and meaningless. In the pres
ent connection all towns having a pop
ulation of less than $500 are classed
with the rural population. With this

to 100 per cent. has been divided into
five parts of equal range. 0, to 20, 20 to
40, 40 TO 60, 60 to so, and so and over,
and the states and territories falling
into each part have been given the
same shading.

large city population include New

rs between the difference between
the shirt waists of two or three sum-
ners ago and the blouses of the pres

Inexpensive little garment, but the
blouse as we now have it is a crea-
lion de luxe; thing that every wom

be sure of. Though it is not too
much to say that the ingenious wom-

that is formed of shot white and red,
resulting in soft, silvery pink. The
effect will be admirable and subtly
artistic, and one could go on ad IN
finitum making suggestions of effec.
tive color schemes. The broken col
or the taffetas would rejoice in the
relief of any other silk that was a
shot blending of any two of its
tones, and it is also interesting to
notice how pleasantly, when a gown
is formed of shot fabric, it may be
relieved by it's two shot colors, used
together; for instance, opalescent
silk, which is the result of pale blue
and pink shot, which might have an
adjoining of pale blue and the pink
