The disaster was one of the most seri-

this section for many years. Six kegs
of powder had been placed in the mine
during the time intervening between the
night and day shifts, for distribution to
the men in the morning. John Miller, a
driver, had charge of the distribution of
the explosives. Ten minutes after Miller
was supposed to have accomplished his
task, the electric current which runs the
machines was turned on, and the ex-
plosion followed. 1t is supposed that
through some mistake the current was
switched on before Miller had distributed
the powder

LEVY A LOCAL TAX
To Have High Schools in
Each Township.
The Movement in Buncombe, Durham,
Rockingham and GuiIford is Pop
uIar and Indicates a Spread
Over the State.

The following information concern
ing the advance of the work Of educa-
ton in North Carolina was yesterday
given out by the State Superintend-
ent of Public Instruction:
A number of citizens met at HON
my Institute, Buncombe county, Jan.
uary 1st to discuss the question of
levying local tax in the entire town
ship to aid in the establishment Of a
township high school. Superintend-
ent Reagan was present and explained
his views, which were those approved
by the County Teachers melting held
in Ashevilel some weeks ago. The
plan is for the township to levy tax
sufficient, with the general county ap-
preparation to maintain high school
in the township for eight months, and
permit every school district in the
township to send pupils to this high
school as soon as they shall have com
pleted their common school branches
Those who were present heartily
favored the plan, and it is their pur-
pose to establish this township high
school before the next school year be-
gins. Another meeting for perfecting
this arrangement is called for the 9th
of January.
Supt Reagan writes that it is the
purpose to have at least one high
school in each township, and in order
to do this, the teachers. have organized
themselves into campaign committee
for the purpose of interesting the pa
irons of the different districts in the
various townships, Supt. Reagan says:
Il think we will have no trouble in
carrying these townships for local
tax"
Supt. G. w. Massey, of Durham,
writes that the citizens of Mangum
Township will in the near future vote
special tax to establish high school
in this township. The public schools
all run about seven and one half
months 1t is the purpose to estab-
lish public high school in each town
ship. Five of these have already been
established.
Supt E. P. Ellington, of Rocking
ham, is working upon the same plan.
He writes: Il am hopeful Of getting
one entire township to vote special
tax as soon as the spring opens"
Fenuess township in Guilford coun'
ty, recently voted the tax in the en-
tire township.
1t is significant that the advance
movement Of township high schools is
in counties that employ superintend-
ents for their entire time, who work
at the business all the year around.
