Amputation has been performed upon a
number of the wounded. but IL is almost
certain that several of these will die. A
majority of the dead and wounded were
single men, but several hid families living
in the district.
Charles Rector, of the Shurtlor mine es-
capped by a miracle. He was chatting with
several men, unconscious of danger, when
the explosion occurred. He saw a number
of men rushing toward the station and at
this moment he was lifted from his feet
and was deafened by a terrible crash. When
he realized what had occurred he was sur
prised to find himself unlnjured.
E w. Vanatte, one OF the Findlay min-
ers, who had a remarkable escape from
death. in describing the explosion. said:
1.-The earth seemed to heave under the plat
form and station and the noise made was
deafening. We had been at the station
about two minutes when the explosion
occurred. / was thrown through the air
about seventy-five feet. There were about
twenty-five men on the platform and most
of them were nonunion miners who worked
on the Findley. The Shurtlon shift had
not yet reached the station but was hur-
rying down the hill. Had these men
reached the platform. TIE causualty list
would have been doubled. There must have
been 800 pounds OF powder used. and IL
must have been set off by an electric spark
revolver, the miners would have
smelled the fuse II one had been used"
George Remick was hurled many feet
from the platform, but escaped with only
a few bruises. although heavy timbers and
rocks fell all about him.
THE INTERNAL MACHINE.
The internal machine with which the
diabolical work was done consisted OF a
quantity of dynamite. estimated at 100 to
300 pounds loaded revolver and a long.
slender steel wire attached TO the trigger
The revolver was fastened so that the
pulling of the trigger would not draw il
away. The wire from under the sta
tion to the cribbing OF the Delmonico prop
erty. about four hundred feet away where
its end was fastened TO a rung of a chair
The dynamite was placed close to the
muzzle OF the revolver. which was dis
charged by pulling the wire when the en-
gineer blew his whistle. The ball from the
revolver exploded the dynamite
man was seen running down the hin
from the Delmonico after the explosion.
The Victor troops, who were ordered out
by Mayor French. were 80 stationed as TO
keep people from passing over the path
taken by this man and bloodhounds were
sent from Canyon City and Trinidad for
the purpose OF trailing the assassin.
The Internal machine used to-day was
similar To the one exploded in the vindi-
Gator mine ON Nov. p. l9OS killing two
men.

COFFEE DISPLAY EXTENSIVE
South and Central America Exploit
Their Great Product-Porto
Rico Represented.

The value of the ST. Louis Exposi-
ton as an advertising institution and
school of instruction is fully appre-
ciated by the great coffee growing
countries of South and Central Amer
lea. These countries are showing
their coffees to the thousands of
Worlds Fair visitors and creating new
demands for the better varieties pro-
duced, which now find a market at
home or in England and Germany.
The countries claim as great merit
for their high grade coffees as is pos
sessed by the famous Mocha and Java,
and they seek to give the public an
object lesson in the use of coffee.
Brazil serves coffee every afternoon to
all visitors at the Brazil building,
free Of charge, in order that they may
sample better grade of Rio.
Porto Rico also has an extensive
coffee exhibit, with the hope Of pro-
noting larger trade with it's new
mother country.

THE DEAF MUTE HUSBAND.
Had One Advantage, He Didn't Have
to Look When His Wife
Scolded.

At social gathering some time ago, q
number of deaf mutes were present. Re
freshments were served during the evening,
and in handing a small glass of wine to one
of the guests a deaf mute gentleman hap
pened to spill a few drops on his wife's skirt.
The wife, relates the Philadelphia Public
Ledger, is also deaf mute, and it was evil
dent that she took the mishap in a rather
irritable way. She wrinkled up her fore
head and at once made series of remark
ably swift movements with her nimble
fingers. The husband, looking exceedingly
apologize, made few motions in re-
turn.
One of the guests, who had noticed this
little byplay, slyly slipped out bit of paper
and penciling something on it, handed it to
a friend
This is what the letetr read:
No matter how badly afflicted, woman
can still scold."
The friend scrubbed in return:
Yes, but in the present case the husband
is luckier than the average. He doesn't
have to look"

BANANA A PROMINENT FOOD
Long Regarded as a Luxury by Ma
tives Of Tropics-Bread and
Coffee Facts.

Long regarded only as luxury for
children or proper food for the dark
skinned natives of the tropics. the
banana has advanced to a place of
prominence as great food product.
The United States and other great ma
tons having colonies in the tropics
have been investigating the food value
of the banana and the results obtained
are so satisfactory that the nutritious
banana is taking its place as staple
food among all civilized nations.
To overcome all objections, the
banana has been especially dried and
prepared for food by making it into
fine -four out of which bread is
made, and other process turns the soft
mushy banana into a wholesome cof-
fee.
The st. Louis Exposition is being
used by the manufacturers of banana
bread and banana coffee to introduce
this new food to the world. Now this
nutritious bread and coffee are served
daily to visitors in the Palace of
Agriculture, as one of the many OBJ
ject lessons in food at the Worlds
Fair

CHEER UP.

Don't lose your courage, honey. in the days
o heat an drought,
For beyond life's ev'ry hot spell come the
breezes from the south,
And the raindrops spatter earthward cool
as kisses on the mouth;
Just you laugh and coax the breezes from
the south.
Then the rose that's looking droopy and
is wlted on its stem
Will be crowned with brighter jewels than
e'er formed a diadem,
And it's heart will be a ruby and each
petal hold a gem;
Just you laugh and coax the breezes from
the south.
II your feet are worn and weary from the
ways they long have trod,
II the friends you love have left you and
are sleeping meath the sod,
Don't forget the haven yonder or the prom
Uses of God:
Just you laugh and coax the breezes from
the south.
Just you laugh and coax the breezes, coax
the breeZes from the south,
Ev'ry life has got it's burden, ev'ry heart
its time Of drought;
But its rainbows and its showers are like
kisses on the mouth;
Just YOU laugh and coax the breezes from
the south.

Fair, which shows. in addition to the
four wild tribes, the refined Visayans
with their beautiful fabrics and
their delicate embroideries, the loyal
brown soldiers of Uncle Sam and
the cultured commissioners and Off
Gals, there are some purblind indi-
viduals who refuse to see that the Fill
Pine is anything but nuisance and
u menace to our. country.
That he could be capable of civiliza-
lion and uplifting seems utterly ridic-
ulous to-those who have studied him
| No, to the class who dare not visit
the Philippine reservation at the
Worlds Fair for fear of being con-
vinced against their will. That a
great many or the natives of the is
lands could already be cultured and
refined would be set down as utterly
preposterous by this class.
The soreheads need not be bound
and carried by violence across the fac
smile Bridge of Spain, through the
Walled City to the heart Of the most
wonderful section of the entire eX.
position. They should only be enticed
to listen for an hour to the playing of
the Constabulary band. No man with
an ounce of appreciation in his soul
could hear that band without being
convinced that the 81 men who com
pose its membership are far above the
ordinary in both intelligence and senti-
ment. A nation or a race may be
Judged by it's music. A natural feel
ing for rhythm and harmony is rot
an attribute of a chaotic or unbalanced
mind. 1t is discord that leads the way
to senseless vandalism and causeless
rebellion.
In behalf of the Filipino it mus. be
said that he is a natural musician.
Even the savage head-hunters, in their
peculiar tribal dances, manifest a re-
markable feeling for rhythm. There
is none of the Indians wild noise and
broken time in their beating of brass
tomtoms and their somewhat monoto-
nous singing. They possess the mus
ical instinct that, with time and train
ing, may be developed into Just what
the members of the two Philippine
bands already possess.
The Scout band is an exceptionally
good military band. such as we have
heard before. The Constabulary band
is in a class by itself. 1t is not to be
compared with any of the other ex.
position bands. It's concerts are held
daily in the large bandstand in the
Philippine plaza, and those who have
heard one concert will gladly fl,rsake

members of the civil police force wear
the khaki. It is these little men in
yellow attire who have come to the
Worlds Fair to show Americans what
we, as a nation, have really acquired
as an accidental result of Admiral
Dewey's, spectacular victory.
The members of the Constabulary
band were all finished musicians be-
fore Lieut.. Loving, their leader, took
them in hand. Each one was an artist
in his own line, and all of them had
seen service in the military bands of
the Spanish regime. However, there
was a tremendous task for the band
master The men possessed execution
without idea. They could read notes
faultlessly, and could keep perfect
time; but that is only small part
of concerted playing.
Naturally quick to catch new ideas,
they soon grasped the meaning of the
attack" on which the effect of a
bands work so largely depends. Then
they learned all the mysteries of shad-
ing, from the most delicate tone to the
most powerful crescendo, and it is in
this that their playing is so marvellous.
In the tender, sympathetic passages of
selection tie tone is subdued TO the
most exquisite murmur, from which it
rises, without crash and without a
blare, sweeping majestically upward
and onward, until the enraptured
listener is engulfed in a mighty bill
low of sound. Nothing could be more
inspiring than the burst of melody in
such a climax as that which occurs in
the sextette of Lucia, and no band ever
handled it's climaXes better.
In the most powerful tone, there is
not the slightest suggestion of brassi-
ness. 1t is all liquid music. This is
due almost wholly to the instrumental
ton, which is absolutely faultless.
More than half the instruments are
reeds, and instead of the large num-
Der of saxaphones, the instrumental
ton includes four sarrusaphones and
two sousaphones. Moreover, the clari-
nets are not used merely for accom-
paniment, but actually carry the sec
ond voice.
The music produced is not simply
that of brass band, but is varied for
effect to resemble strings, human
voices and even the pipe organ.
Among the players there are several
excellent violinists, and the personnel
of the band is sometimes rearranged
into an orchestra of 70 men and also
into guitar glee club.
The leader, Lieut.. Loving, is ma
tive of St. Paul. and a graduate of the
New England conservatory of music.
To his genius and devotion much Of
the success of the Constabulary band
Is due.
Would that every American citizen
might listen ITO one of his matchless
programmes, drink in all tine harmony
and all the splendor of the best band
in the United States, yes, and stay to
the close. The close is the most i'm
pressive part of the concert. No one
could listen to the playing of ''The
Star Spangled Banner" by that band
of Filipinos, the pavilion surrounded
by other Fillpinos, their hats over
their hearts and their heads bowed, and
doubt that they are Loyalty American.

Features in Food and Drink.

The Worlds Fair is full of new
things, new features and interesting
experiments in the way of food and
drink. Prominent among the new bev.
erages introduced at the Exposition
are banana coffee and prune coffee.
At one of the California county ex-
hibits in the Palace of Agriculture the
prune coffee is furnished by the
county, to teach the public the value of
this experiment as pleasant beverage.
The banana coffee is served in the
same building, but at different ex-
hibit, the purpose being to show the
wonderful food value of the banana.

Pygmies Discard Tents for Huts

The Pygmies from Africa at the
Worlds Fair became tired of living
in the tent provided for them and have
built themselves small huts of sap
lings, covered with grass and rushes.
In order to give the huts the proper
dimensions, novel system of meas
urement was employed. The corner
poles were stuck in the ground and
the architect then lay down on his
stomach, stretching out both arms to
see If the hut would be large enough.
