CHAPTER VIII.
A Morning of Disaster.

''The sea is high and the fishermen
are venturing out"
"All right, will send out the men. ="
Cape Disappointment lie saving
station nestled beneath the rocke Of the
cliffs that extended far out over the sea
Many a mariner had met disappoint-

looked like place of refuge from the
storm. But he who dared to trust it
had often been dashed to death against
it's walls.

1t was the treao hery Of its appearance
that gave name to the place. 1t was
the great loes of life that had caused
the government to establish life saw
ing station at the foot Of the cliffs.
But the life savers had a double duty
to perform. The purpose for which
they were originally placed there was
insignificant to the duty that later de-
veloped. They were provided by the
government to watch incoming vessels
and save the lives Of ship wrecked sea-
men and travellers on the deep, but
later it was found that hundred calls
came fro - those whose lives were spent
on the river to where one came from
those who lived on the sea

fisherman. While the latter tended
his nets or traps the puller guided the
boat to suit the work.
The nets were known as gill nets.
These were stretched out their full
length in the water, which was many
feet and even yards. Floaters were
placed along the top of the net at
proper distances to hold it in position
while sinkers carried the bottom of
the net deep into the water. The mesh
es OF the net were Of such size as would
permit the entrance Of the averge fishes
head. When once 1t entered the mesh
es the gills were fastened and the fish
held prisoner until removed by the
fishermen.
The traps, one Of which Ringwold and
Sankala tended, were constructed diff
erently. A large figure was formed in
the shallow water by the driving Of
piles. 1t represented heart and on
either side extended long wings. The
wings enclosed semi.circle facing the
ocean and Immediately in the rear Of
where they come together was the large
heart. A netting, called web, was
stretched along the piles from the sur
face of the water to the bottom Of the
bay. By this means a perfect heart
with wings was perfected.
The valve OF the heart opened inn
mediately at the conjunction of the
wings. This was at the sharp point Of
the "V" which is formed at the top
of the heart.
As a trap for fish it is success.
The salmon come up from the ocean
and enter the mouth of the river fresh
and strong. They run in great schools
and follow the shallow channels laying
their spawn as they 60 farther up the
stream.
When the noses CT the fish strike the
web forming the wings of the heart,
they follow the wings to the center.
Here they find their way through the
opening into the heart. When once
into the heart their capture is COM
plete. They circle about the place
passing the same apex of the heart
through which they entered without
ever discovering it as means Of escape,
and are thus held as captives until the
fishermen take them into their boats.
They sometimes enter these traps by
the hundreds within "a hours. They
range in weight from five to 20 pounds
and larger.
1t was such trap as this that San
kala and Ringwold tended for old Sea-
dog at wages barely sufficient to sus-
tain them at best.

KILLED IN MINE EXPLOSION.
Twenty to Sixty Men Are Entombed
In Colorado Mine.

Trnidad-The Rocky Mountain Coal
& Iron company's mine No. at Trim
idad, 40 miles west of this city, was
so badly wrecked by the recent ex-
plosion that the rescuers have not
yet succeeded in penetrating to the
point where the miners were working.
Estimates Of the number of men in
the mine at the time vary from 20 to
60. They are mainly foreigners, and
not known to the Americans in the
vicinity The mine company officials
have no record of the number working.
The mine is sloping tunnel over
1000 feet long. Rescuers entered the
slope as far as room 10, which Is 200
feet from the mouth Of the tunnel.
They succeeded in reaching this point
only after most dangerous work and
after crawling through many narrow
places. At this point they encountered
solid wall of rock that had fallen
from above and closed the passage.
Room 26. where most Of the miners
are supposed to have been working, Is
6U0 feet from the mouth Of the 'ttn-
mel. or 400 feet beyond the point to
which the rescuers penetrated. Only
one body has been recovered, that OF
T. Doran. driver who was just en-
tering the tunnel when the explosion
took place and who was terribly burn
ed.

Pullman Car Swashed-Crew of Sec

Kansas City, Nov. Three persons
were killed and rs injured on tail end
collision on the Missouri Pacific rail-
road at Topson, Mo. The first section
of westbound train No. was standing
in front of the station after having
taken water, when it was crashed into
by the second section. The engine of
the second section of No. split the
Pullman car Topaz, containing four
passengers, two thirds of its length,
killing and injuring the number stated.
There were 22 passengers in the next

they espaced injury.
The dead:

Crew Is Blamed.
The blame, according to Superin.
tendent w. J. Mckee, who went to
the scene of the wreck, rests with the
engineer and conductor Of the second
section. They were running rs miles
an hour, when they should have had
their train under control. The first
section of eastbound passenger No. 10
was standing on the sidetrack and En-.
gineer Ramsey of second No. 8, says
the headlight of No. 10 prevented his
seeing the red light on first No. 8.
The coroner's verdict blames the
fagman of the first section for not
properly tagging the second section,
and the engineer of the second sec
ton for coming into the station in a
careless manner and for not having
his engine under control.

Later.
The cause Of the train wreck is still
a mystery, but train officials thought 1t
could not have been that the section
crew left rail insecure, for the loco
motive, the heaviest piece in the train,
passed over safely and did not leave
the rails.
Superintendent Beamer was at the
scene of the wreck all day yesterday
It will be few days before the wreck
is cleared away, and in the meantime
trains pass over a temporary track
laid around the wreck. 1t is more DIFF
ficult to remove the wreckage Of a
passenger train because 1t is necessary
to place the coaches back onto their
trucks and put the injured cars In con-
dition to travel again. In a freight
wreck the debris is thrown onto =

Until the wreck is cleared from the
track It will not be possible to deter
mine the cause-perhaps not then. IL
can be seen that the rails and track
are badly torn up.
