TERRIFIC EXPLOSION IN A MINE
TERCIo, COL, THE SCENE OF
THE DISASTER.
Exact Number Of Men Killed is Not
Known, but 1t Is Believed that
at Least 80 and Maybe so
Lives Were Lost

Trinidad, Col, Oct. 29.-From so to
90 men lost their lives in a terrific eX-
plision which occurred at mine No. 3
of the Rocky Mountain Fuel Co. at
Tercio, 40 miles west of Trinidad,
Friday afternoon. The exact number
of dead may never be known, as the
mine is burning and in all likelihood
the bodies will be consumed A large
number of mine officials left here as
soon as word of the accident was re-
ceived Company doctors were pick
ed up all along the line. as well as all
other available physicians. f. j. Fore
man, government stock inspector,
was at Tercio when the explosion oc-
CURED. He returned here last night
and gave the following account of the
affair:
Il was standing not more than 300
yards from the mouth of the tunnel
when the explosion occurred. The
explosion was preceded by a low
rumbling sound, resembling an earth
quake. which made the earth tremble
and startled the whole camp.
Il looked toward the mine and out
Of the mouth of the tunnel and two air
shafts came great volume of smoke
and dust, which continued for nearly
a minute. Out of the two air shafts,
each of which are seven feet in diane
ter timbers fully three feet in diane
ter were shot into the air and broken
iI.tO splinters. Rocks were thrown
over the camp for distance of a
quarter of a mile In fact, il rained
rocks, broken timbers and all kinds
Of debris for fully minute and many
people were injured by being struck
with these missiles.
The explosion, which rcsembled a
volcanic eruption, caused the widest
excitement. Men, women and chill
dren rushed to the mouth of the tun-
mel, and women whose husbands were
in the mine had to be brought
away by miners to prevent their being
killed by the fumes coming from the
mouth of the tunnel"
The mine in which the explosion
occurred employed so men and it is
believed that at least 60 were in the
mine at the time. News of the eXplo-
sion brought assistance from the ad-
jacent camps and last night hundreds
of men were trying to enter the mine
Deadly fumes overcame the rescuers
frequently, but their places immedi-
ately were taken by others ready to
risk their lives. II was not thought
possible that any one in the mine
could escape death.
Nearly all the miners employed are
Slavs. The mine was opened only Il
year ago and extended 1000 feet into
the hill. The explosion is supposed
to have been caused by dust But one
body has been recovered, that of r.
Duran. a driver who was just entering
the tunnel when the explosion oc-
Cured He was torn and bruised al
most beyond recognition. All the
mines within a radius of 20 miles have
been shut down and the miners are on
the way to assist in the rescue of the
hpIiac

Six Doctors Failed.

South Bend, Ind, Oct. "a (SpeciaD. -
After suffering from Kidney Disease for
three years; after taking treatment from
six different doctors without getting re-
found not only relief but speedy and
complete cure in Dodd's Kidney Pills.
Speaking of his cure, Mr.. Laudeman says:
Yes, [ suffered from Kidney Trouble
for three years and tried six doctors to no
good. Then l took just two boxes of Dodd s
Kidney Pills and they not only cured my
kidneys, but gave me better health in gen
eral. OF course l recommended Dodd s
Kidney Pills to others and / know number
now who are using them with good results" ="
Mr.. Laudeman's case is not an excep-
ton. Thousands give similar experiences.
For there never yet was case of Kidney
Trouble from Backache to Bright's Disease
that Dodd's Kidney Pills could not cure
They are the only remedy that ever cured

DUN's REVIEW OF TRADE.
Manufacturing Plants are Making
Steady Gains, Particularly in the
LEADING Industries.

New York, Oct. Or. G. Dun s
Weekly Review of Trade says:
Mild weather early in the week
checked the distribution of seasonable
goods, but had permanent value in
facilitating the harvesting of cotton
and late grain. Subsequently the
temperature fell, restoring retail
trade in wearing apparel, fuel and
similar products to greater activity
than was experienced a year ago
Building operations are active,
strengthening the markets for lumber
and materials.
Manufacturing plants are making
steady gains, particularly in the lead
ing industries, and it is significant
that reluctance to do business has
shifted from the buyers to sellers,
eliminating largely the concessions in
prices that prevented stability Labor
is unusually we'll employed, judging
by the official compilation of the
unions. Railway freight blockades
cause some complaint, which is re-
markable in view of the restricted
grain movement, and earnings in the
three weeks of October were 80 pei
cent. larger than in 1908.
In the iron and steel industry new
cars and ships are requiring very
large tonnage Of plates, and practic.
ally every department except stee!
rails has aroused from the dull con.
dition so long prevalent. Improve.
ment is emphasized by the large or
ders for pig iron.
Failures this week numbered 23S in
the United States, against 252 last
year. and 2S in Canada, compared
with Is year ago.

Wrong Department.

A prominent physician tells this
story at the expense Of the modern
craze for specialization in the medical
profession. A poor woman went to a
dispensary to ask for aid for her little
smashed. At the first room where she
applied she was told by a curt attend
ant that the boy could not be treated
there.

is the eye and ear department"

this belief was verified when he re-

short, Jacob A. Meese and Mrs. Chris

friends join in wishing them happy
voyage down the hill of life. AS a

MANY LIVES ARE LOST
In Russian Settlement in
Colorado.

Foit Collins, Col, May 20.-A rain
storm at Livermore near the head of
Cache La Poudre Creek this afternoon
developed tonight into veritable de-
luge, causing shallow streams in Lari
more county to become roaring tor
rents.
The town of La Porte, five miles
north of here Is completely inundated
and reports state that several lives
were lost In the washing away of
houses. The telephone wires ore down
and these reports cannot be verified.
The flood struck Fort Collins with
terrific force and in Is minutes the
creek had widened from fifty feet to
mile.
The Russian settlement was washed
away and dozens of houses were car
ried away and down stream with their
occupants who could be heard calling
piteously for help as the buildings
Heated through the city darkness.
Intense excitement prevails here and
1t is impossible to obtain any definite
information as to the number of casu-
alties. That the loss of life will be
heavy there can hardly be any doubt.
The people in the Russian settlement
were warned by a ditch rider but re-
fused to pay any heed until the rush of
waters reached them and it was toe
late to escape.
