Small Fruit Gardens.

Small fruits are the joy Of the
amateur gardener, says the Garden
Magazine. They are as easy to grow
as vegetables, they take little space
and they give quick results. The man
who has only city or suburban lot
can hardly afford to give any Of his
valuable space TO the culture Of tree
fruits. Moreover, tree fruits do not
come into. bearing until three to. ten
years from the second and third years
with small fruits.

CONDITIONS STILL SERIOUS
LARGE SECTION OF SOUTH CUT
OFF FROM COMMUNICATION
WITH OUTSIDE WORLD.

Louisville, Feb. 10.-While condi.
tions resulting from the long contin-
ued rain and 'sleet storm show slight
Improvement in the Southwest there
is no betterment of the situation from
the Mississippi to the Atlantic coast.
The telephone companies, in this vast
area have been practically out of busi-
ness since last Saturday night. The
telegraph companies lines are in but
little better condition and some mes
sages are being sent by trains between
cities where communication is inter-
rupted The storm has moved north
and eastward, it's effects now being
felt in North Carolina. Atlanta has
been shut off twice since Sunday and
nothing has been heard from there by
wire for fourteen hours. AS an evil
dence of the seriousness of the situa-
ton large corps of telegraphers ar
rived during the day in Montgomery,
carrying hundreds of messages, under
the impression that plenty OF wires
would be found there for the distribu-
tion of the accumulated business. The
situation in Montgomery, however, is
not much better than that at Atlanta
and the messages will probably be
started northward by train.

SIX KILLED, MANY INJURED
DISASTER IN MICHIGAN MINE
CAUSED BY TERRIFIC ExPLo.
SION OF DYNAMITE.

Calumat, Mich, Feb. 10.-Ten thou
sand pounds of dynamite stored under.
ground in magazine at the eighth
level of No. 3 shaft of the North Kear-
sarge branch of the Osceola Consoli-
dated mine exploded, killing half a
dozen men and injuring many others.
One body has been recovered and at
least five men are buried in the mine.
They are dead beyond the slightest
doubt A drill boy who was burned
by escaping steam is dying. The hos
pital at the mine is crowded with in
jured men and the mine officials are
besieged by relatives of the injured
and missing miners. AS all the open
ings into the mine are sealed the fire
will eventually be smothered, but
when it will be possible to open any of
the shafts cannot be said.
The force of the explosion was felt
for miles around and men working in
portions of the mine some distance
from the scene of the explosion were
knocked down by the concussion.
The cause of the disaster is shroud-
ed in mystery and may never be dis
covered, as William Pollitt. Jr., the
man who was in charge of the pow
der was probably blown into a thou
sand pieces. No tangible trace of him
has been found.
