is a season in which the greatest
variety is Obtainable. Whatever
degree of beauty may be reached,
however, elegance of outline char
acterizes each and every model and
trimmings interfere but slightly
with the outline of the lat. Trim
mings are of the richest order, and
while massed heavily, never give
an overturned appearance.

The COlOrs

Pastel shades are predominant
and black is in better favor than
for some time. Combinations of
colors are much used, but there is
not the massing of many colors
anon one hat which was so notice
able in the spring. Light shades
of blue, from sake to peacock, are
in marked favor; reds shading into
purple and pinkish tones; the dull
rich smoke color; purple, green,
black and white, each bears off a
considerable share of honorS.

Paris Hats

Says our chief: 81 never had
to use greater discretion than in
selecting these Paris Hats" The
picture is one of thenl-and the
others are equally wearable. The
duty makes the prices high-the
New York adaptations and those
made in the workTooms here are
reasonably priced and equally at

made of Black Hats and the fash
ionable Crepe Wells.

Summed Up

For dressy wear the most
popular hats of the season
are medium in size, although
they look large owing to the
arrangement of the trim
ming. The derby crown is
an important feature this
season. It is in evidence in
large, medium, and small
hats.

Miners ENTONBED
TWENTY -FOUR men LIE DEAD in
TWO COAL MINES.
Reseuing Party Of A. Who Entered
the Mines to Take Out Bodies d
Fellow Workmen, Were Killed BY
Second Explosion and After Damp
Shook the Mountains.


Charleston, w. Va, March 2O.-As
a result OF the horrible explosion IN
the Rush Run and Red Ash mines near
Thurmond "a men now lie dead in the
two mines.
Ten of those we're killed in the ex-
plosion Saturday night and the other
Ia were a rescuing party who entered
the mine this morning to take from
the mines the bodies Of their fellow
workmen. These latter were killed by
a second explosion and the after damp.
The first explosion seemed to shake
the foundation Of the mountains and
the angry twin flash from the two
neighboring drift mouths lighted up
the heavens for miles around.
Soon from the mining villages for
several miles up and down the river
hundreds of people rushed to the scene
of the disaster. The first explosion
was caused by naked flame coming
into contact with the gas. These
flames leaped from the drift mouth and
set fire to everything IN the mines
which were not blown out by the force
Of the explosion. The great drums by
which the cars are run from the drift
mouth down the incline to the tipple
and the empties drawn up, was blown
from its moorings and down the noun
tainside 600 feet, and the farmhouse
caught fire and was totally consumed.
The cars that stood at the mouth
of the mine were blown far down to-
ward the tipple, and much Of the track
of the incline was destroyed, the rails
twisted and the crossties whipped from
their beds in the ballast and sent
scorched and charred many rods away.
A rescue party was formed and
about 90 men entered the mine Ii
search Of the bodies Of those who had
! persisted at the first explosion. The
men explored the mines for about two
or three hours, putting up brattices
so that pure air would fonow them
wherever they went. Finally some Of
them came out and reported that the
others were too careless in going for
ward faster than good air was being
supplied, carried at the same time a
naked light
AT 3:45 another awful explosion oc-
Cured, caused by the gas coming in
contact with the naked fame Of a
miners lamp. and ia men persisted.
Mine Inspector Edward Pinckney ar
rived on the ground today and took
charge Of the rescue work. The second
explosion again damaged the fan, and
Mr.. Pinckney will allow no one to en-
ter the mine until It is working prop
erly and drift OF fresh air is running
through the mine. When this is done
he will lead the rescue squad himself.

Mukden, into which the victorious

200 years.
Mukden is busy, thriving city Of
100000 inhabitants. It is believed to
have existed on its present site 5000
years, but it never attained Importance

only way in which to Insure Peace.
Says Admiral CoohIan.


Rear Admiral Coghlan spoke at the
recent banquet given by the Empire
State society Of the Sons Of the Amer
lean Revolution He did not begin his
remarks until after President Roose-
welt had left the room to begin his
return journey to Washington. He
followed the lines Of the chief exec
utive's appeal for an upbuilding Of the
navy. a high standing Of its personnel
and his appeal that all should study
the lessons Of the revolutionary war.
the war of 1912 and the Mexican war,
and carry out the policies that won
victory then, at the same time avoiding
the defects which brought defeat.
The president took all the wind out
of my sails said the admiral. How
ever, let me begin with the old adage,
In time Of peace, prepare for war
The president spoke Of having some
40 ships. AS matter OF fact, we will
have only n ships by next spring.
when the new ones are completed,
and only 16 are first class battleships,
to defend the country. We shall have
some IL armored cruisers, but these
can not be called battleships.
In 1903 we will need some IS 900
enlisted men in the navy, and we will
have to try to get the best men. We
must be prepared. Our losses in the
Spanish war, though few, were the re-
suit Of unpreparedness. We have had
good results, indeed, but we can't be
sure that those results will always
follow, We must build up our navy
uniformly and rapidly. Our personnel
is improving very rapidly, and at pres
ent is equal if not superior to any ma.
Wy. You hear good deal about de-
sertions from the navy Let me say
that last year less than per cent
deserted, and those were mostly from
the servants department. chiefly for.
eigners, of whom we hope to get rid
Now 80 per cent Of all enlisted men
are American born.
Let me conclude that the navy, as
the president said, is not built to make
war with, but to insure peace.

While Emperor Nicholas, whose

WOMAN VII No PLAoE ID sToP
Travelling Between san Francisco and
Victoria Denied Landing.

Mrs. Margaret Norrington, a one
time society woman, is unfortunate in
the extreme. For the past three weeks
she has been passing between San
Francisco and Victoria, B. c., and is
not allowed to land at either place.
The woman arrived in San Francis
co, short time ago, from New Zeal
and, en- route to visit relative at
Victoria, intending to go thence to
England She is the widow of Brit
ish army officer, since whose death she
has been brought to reduced circum-
stances. AT one time she was a social
leader. When she reached Victoria
she had $500, but her money in some
unknown manner disappeared, and
about the same time she learned that
her Victoria friend was dead. She was
given shelter at the police station and
afterwards was returned to San Fran
cisco as an INDECENT, not entitled to
land on Dominion soil.
The authorities Of San Francisco al
so refused to permit her to land and
she has been going back and forth,
unable to secure a foothold on land at
either place. She had no outlook at
last account except that of remaining
on shipboard.

LIE DooLEY LIE s4O.oOO.

Gives His Newly Welded Daughter
s2o,ooo-Everyobdy Happy.
Peter Dooley, who few weeks ago
found strong box containing 100000
in gold buried in the cellar Of an old
house at Prescott, Mich, and was in
doubt for some time as to whom the
money rlghtfully belonged, has decided
that Peter Dooley himself is the only
man who has any claim on it.
The good natured Irishman has a
generous heart and the money Is GO
ing freely for the benefit Of others.
Half Of it he gave to his daughter,
Mary Ann Dooley, who has just be-
come the bride Of Allen M. Mullen.
The couple had built them a little
log house and furnished it partly with
bare necessities. The windfall of $780,
900 has transformed their lives as ef-
fectually as could the wand of any
fairy godmother. Their little log cab
in in the woods viii be exchanged for
a palatial residence.
The wedding day will be long re-
membered. The town was crowded
with people to witness the annual foot
race on the snow. Peter Dooley pre-
scented each contestant with sack Of
tobacco and a new pipe, giving the win
ner a meerschaum valued at So. Be
sides this, he gave a free dinner to
every man, woman and child in Pres
colt to celebrate his own good fortune
and his daughters wedding.

Alexandrians Promoted.

The Havana Cuba Post of the 10th
instant says:
"Mr. J. Ellis Norris, of this city, has
been appointed general manager tor the
West Indies of K. &. Dun's Commercial
Agency, to succeed his uncle. Mr.. w.
A. Merchant, who recently resigned to
accept the vice presidency of the Ma

an old Virginian family, being native
of Alexandria, Va, where his father is q
well known citizen. He is a newspaper
mau by profession, having taken thor
ough course in journalism. Before en-
,ering the employ of r. G. Dun & Co.,
he was at times employed on newspapers

-ciated with K G. Dun &Co at Charles
ton. :. c., and was transferred from
there to Havana IN 1900 as assistant to
Mr.. Merchant. How much bis work
has been appreciated in this position is
shown by the fact that he has been Sc

President snubs Senate.

President RoOsevelts luncheon on
March bids fair TO be an issue With the
Senate. 1t has been a cherished tradition
of the Senate that, after taking the oath
of Office aud delivering his inaugural adj
dress, the President has always been
the guest of the Senate for luncheon
usually h.sty bite in the military
committee room. President Roosevelt,
however, has decided to give formal
luncheon at the White House, and rs
nearly 60 persons have been asked, 1t
will be matter Of some ceremony and
certainly consume good deal of time.
1t is now calculated that this function,
besides ruffling the dignity Of the already
ruffled Senate, will delay the procession
in passing the reviewing stand at least
an hour and half.
A good deal OF speculation is going on
about the grand march which is to opeu
the inaugural ball. II was announced
this afternoon that the President and
Mrs. Roosevelt would fellow the time
houored custom and circle the great
ballroom at least once.

Railroad Thieves.

AS south bound Baltimore and
Ohio freight train was leaving Washing
ton about TWO O'Clock this morning for
this city thieves boarded one of the cars
and proceeding to the roof tied a rope
to the foot board. While the train was
underway they lowered themselves over
the side Of the car, broke the sea-,
pashed the door back and entered.
They rolled two barrels of whisky to the
doc and secured several other articles
which they intended to throw off the car
at some point north of Alexandria, when
they were surprised by railroad de-
tectives on the train who discharged
their pistols at the thieves. The latter
jumped from the cars and made their
escape. 1t is believed that bullet
struck one of the fugitives.
