CALIFORNIA; CHARM.
Visitor from East VIII Miss Much,
But After Year There IL Ready
to Capitulate.

You will not find everything In south
ern California. You will miss the wide
stretches Of green in the open places,
Tar removed from the dusty cities. the
noble trees, the clear streams of water,
the blue lake nestled in among the pine
clad mountains; you will miss that
splendid miracle, the change of the sea-
sons, when your whole nature comes
into closer touch with the great mother
heart of nature than at any other time
In all the year, says H. s. HARDWOOD, in
the World To-day.
Yes, you will miss much, but when
you have been here a year, when month
after month of rare ard beautiful wealth
er blend into each other, when the
sea woos you and the flowers charm
you and the brown mountains beckon
you and the soft air soothes you, after
year has passed you find there are
some compensations for the lovely
things you have left behind you, you
come to realize that nature has done
more for this stretch of sea and noun
tain girt land than she has done for any
other spot on the globe.
You may have been charmed with
California when you came, you may
have been captivated after you had
been here year, you may capitulate and
consent to be captured by the time two
golden summers have stolen over you.

COLD STORAGE A BLESSING.
Regulates the Market Prices of Per-
ishabie modit.cs, Especially
In the Line of Fruit.

Few householders appreciate the
debt they owe to the cold storage sys-
tenn now so generally in use through
out the country. 1t has become a nee
essary adjunct to the rapidly develop
ing commercial orcharding of the
country. 1t is the reservoir in which
the temporary oversupply of fruit Is
placed and from which it may be uni
formly distributed throughout the
year. From the earliest times it has
been recognized that some provision
must be made to store up the temper
airy surplus and distribute 1t in time
of greater need if an industry is to
grow into permanency and stability,
and il violent fluctuations in supply
and demand are to be avoided, says
the Chicago Chronicle.
The danger of so-called overproduc-
ton Is greatest in an industry when
no provision is made to equalize the
distribution of the products through
out the year. There can be no general
overproduction when the majority OF
the people of the world are still under
supplied, and an industry becomes
safe and attractive when man masters
the art of handling the temporary
oversupply and of converting 1T into
q steady uniform supply to an increas-
ing number of people.

To DinpeI Ennui.

The climate of the great glacier OF

uese Overland of Switzerland Is an ex-
perience that every seeker after new
sensations should try, says Kathleen L.
Greig, in Four-Track News. He had
best prepare himself by resting a few
DAYS at Interlaken. Then he may go

his feet, feeling of ennui in his heart,
and come back minus all three. First
he will drive along perfect road
through tiny villages, past rainbow
tinted meadows full Of wild flowers.
and turbulent little ST. cams. Then the
road becomes sleeper, and the scenery
about him grows savage. The valley
below begins to look very far away. the
monster snow-capped Alps frown
above him, and at last he approaches the
great glacier of Grindelwald.

Pittsburg, Pa, Jan. 29.-The number
Of bodies rescued from the Allegheny
Coal company's mines at noon Thursday
totaled l03. About 80 more were at the
| bottom OF the shaft ready to be brought
up. and probably so still in the mine,
making the total number of dead us.
! The work Of the undertakers was
stopped early Wednesday night and the
men who had labored hard all day pre-
/ pairing the bodies for burial decided to
rest until morning. Another reason for
stopping the work was the dearth OF
caskets. but new supply was received.
All night long the work of cleaning
up the mine itself was carried on. Not
an instant did the inspectors ard the ex-
perts cease in the slow but steady task Of
exploration. The left heading Of the
south main level has been thoroughly in

recovered and the work in the right
head Is now being pushed forward rap

The Explosion.
The explosion occurred at 8: 20 o'clock
Monday morning and the first warning
was the sudden rumble underground,
and then a sheet of flame followed up the
deep shaft. Both mine cages were
hurled through the tipple, 20 feet above
the landing stage and the three men on
the tipple were hurled to the ground
A mule was thrown high above the shaft
and fell dead on the ground.
James Z. Roderick, chief Of the state
department Of mines. says: 1.-THE ex-
plosion was undoubtedly caused by the
accumulation of fire damp. This is a
fact and not a theory"
Inspector w. +. Cunningham, who is
in charge of the mine, now says: Every
man in the mine was killed by an explo-
