ESCAPES DEATH.
Miner Is Pierced Through Head With
An Iron Rod.

TWO HARBORS, Mich, Oct. 90
Victor Lahti, miner employed on the
Mesaba range, came as close to death
as any man ever did and live to tell
how it happened.
He was preparing a blast and was in
the act of tamping the charge with a
tamping stick when he accidentally
struck the cap, setting the blast off
prematurely. The tamping stick was
broken, but the end of it struck him
in the left eye and passed directly
through his head, remaining in a rigid
state, as the stick tapered to the end.
AS soon as his fellow-workmen saw
what had happened they came to his

ORDAINS White WINTER.
Lovely Woman to be CARRIED In White
Her Complexion Brown.

LONDON, Oct. 26.-This is to be
white winter as ordained by fashion
white clothes and brown compilations
furs, hats and coats. Even walking
dresses are to be of snowy white or
delicate shade of cream.
But the new white crusader coat for
the season. Made of f1eecy white
cloth that is quite as warm and
quarter of the weight of fur, the cru
sader coat is a really glorified guards
coat which falls in long graceful lines
from the shoulder and is secured by
Snort strap at the back. This
strap which passes through a buckle
of dull silver colored metal, fits
closely to the waist and is often of
contrasting color, pale blue for pre-
ference. The coat has wide collar
and revers, but the revers are also
faced with cloth in the new shade of
turquoise blue and embroidered with
silver.
AS for compilations, according to a
west end beauty specialist, the favor
ite tone now is the Japanese tint,
which is a clear brown of medium
hue.
ITO obtain the best foundation for
this coloring,' he says, Il advise my
clients to ride in the automobile as
much as possible. The air tones the
skin to a color of a ripe olive, and
then 1 tone it down with good cold
cream and next a little olive powder
is rubbed in. I sometimes change the
color of the skin by articles. This
is by no means difficult There are
bleacnes made that will make one al

metics that darken to the desired
shade, but the healthy looking nut
brown is the latest. fad

BETTER FEELING' EXISTS.
More SeasOnable Weather Has Brought About n "Better Feel
 ing. in Business.

New York, June 10-Bradstreet' weekly review says:
 The situation this week may be summed up in the phrase, better feel ing" which is predieated on rather more seasonable weather, allowing bet ter crop progress, a larger volume of retail trade and improved recorder business at wholesale. These in turn are reflected in a more assured tone as to fall business in distributive lines. Relatively best advices come from sur plus cereal crop producing regions, but the feeling at the south Is likewise better. Against this is to be noted some temporary quieting, due to rains or cold weather in the northwest, the lake region and the east, while new business in iron and steel Is smaller and prices are easing. All measures of trade movement still point unmistak- ably to large gains in all lines over a year ago.
 Crop reports confirm last weeks in- timations of a turn for the better in winter wheat, corn and cotton crop prospects

MAY DIE 4 NATURAL DEATH
The Chicago Teamsters' Strike is
 Gradually Petering Out.
Unless New Life is Injected Into Ii "Death From Natural Causes
 Will He the Verdict.

Chicago, June 13.-The teamsters strike has come to the stage where i will die natural death unless new life Is injected into it by the strikers. Dur ing the past 24 hours nothing of any importance whatever has developed, neither side to the controversy having made any aggressive move. According to the employers involved in the trou- ble, they have succeeded in getting their business almost back to normal conditions. The teamsters are doing absolutely nothing in the strike. not a move being made either for peace or a spread of the difficulty.
 The new June grand jury has begun an investigation of the alleged charges of bribery in connection with the strike, which were left unfinished by the last grand jury.
 Several witnesses were heard among them being Fred Sontag, Chicago man. ager for the Anheuser- Busch Brewing Co, who was questioned in connection with the strike of the drivers employed by that company in 1903.

The killing oc- cured seven miles south of Des Arc at the boarding headquarters of the railroad crew It seems that in the afternoon one of the firemen had had trouble with one of the negro labor CTS and had given him a clubbing and it is thought that that night the negroes renewed the trouble with the white men of the crew for the pur- pose of getting revenge on the fore man. At any rate, a row was started and the negroes made raid on the white car. demanding the foreman. His friends, fearing for his safety, had slipped him out of the rear end and he mads good his escape.
