Well Suggested.

The death of yonng Robert Turner and seven miners in Mon tana this week strongly empha- sizes the great necessity of ev- cry mine being supplied with a liberal number of head protect ors, which, when worn, enables miner to enter a mine, no mat ter to what extent the atmOs- phere may be impregnated with smoke, gases or poisonous air.
 The Kearsage mine, of which Mr. Turner was superintendent, is operated principally by tunnel and the buildings at or near the entrance of the tunnel were de- stroyed by fire. An upraise had been made to the surface at some distance in for air purposes. The smoke from the buildings was drawn in the tunnel, which literally smothered the miners at work. MT. Turner and three miners, in an effort to reach these men, entered the mine and were overcome from the fumes and lost their lives. This action itself was suicidal, but there ex- ists in the heart of every miner the humane desire to aid his inn periled brother. Hundreds of similar cases are of record. Such accidents as occurred at the Kearsage mine are of common occurrence, and every mine should be equipped with every known appliance to aid the res cuers to reach the unfortunate men entombed. Head protect ors, so arranged by air cells as
 to form perfect protection to
 wearers, enabling them to re- main in almost any kind of foul air or smoke for several hours,
 are on the market.
 More thought should be given to such matters by superintend-
 ents of every kind of mining, and , the result would be less loss of
 life when such accidents occur. Mining World.

 "Call off your dogn' exclaimed the woman as she saw the situa- ton.
 "Call off yours" replied the boy.
 "Can't you restrain your dog?' she demanded in high key.
 ''He ain't doin' nothin'."
 ''Yes, he is: he's intimidating my Fido,"
 "But your Fido is givin' him sass. I ain't gOin to restrain my dog when your dog is sayin' he can lick him with one hand tied behind his back"
 "Here, Fido, haven't you more care for your reputation than to face such a low-down cur as that? Come here this instant, I shall punish you for this!"
 ''Here, Shakespeare" said the boy as he gave his dog a light kick, "you let that animal alone You tackled one like him last fall and you had indigestion fo1 two months.

"One of Our Boys"

General Robert E. Lee was sit ting on the veranda of his Lex ington home one afternoon en- gagged in conversation with some friends when a man, ill clothed and covered with dust, appeared at the gate and timidly beckoned to the general.
 Apologizing to his friends Lee rose at once aud went to the gate. Very soon his purse appeared and he was seen to give the man some money.
 His friends, knowing the ex- tent of his charity in any case of suffering, real or apparent, look ed on with some impatience, for they knew how slenderhis means were then and how many calls of the same kind came to him.
 General, who was that?" one of them ventured when he had returned to his place.
 "One of our boys in trouble, was the half smiling answer, for the general knew the remon- strance which his friend was longing to make.
 What regiment and company did he belong to-" persisted the friend, anxious, if possible, tc unearth the suspected fraud.
 "Oh, he-he fought on the other side" was General Lees calm answer.-Youth's Compan ion.
