Met Death in STRANGE wav.

Charles Palmer, an employee of the
Camp Glass company in Smethport,
Pa, was roasted to death the other
morning when engaged in making re-
pairs to gas supply pipe. Palmer's
duties were to maintain the heat of
the furnaces at the required tempera-
ture. The melting tanks are so ar
ranged that the supply of gas flame
is turned on alternately from one side
to another. Each of the two supply
pipes is large enough to admit the
body of man. Palmer, when the
flame was passing through the adj
joining pipe, crawled into the unused
one, and his assistant changed the
supply, sending the burning gas
through the pipe in which Palmer was
at work. Before the mistake was
known Palmer's body was burned to
a crisp.

Doc Lives After BEING Buried.

After being buried under the ruins
of a seven-story building twenty-one
days, in which time she was almost
starved to death, Chief, beautiful
water spaniel, has been rescued and
is well on the road to recovery. She
came out of her prison resembling a
mad animal, but careful nursing has
brought her back to her former gentle
ways.
Chief was in the basement of a cot
tage in West Van Buren, street at the
time of the fire in the home of the
Cash Buyers Union, and when the
walls of the building fell they crushed
the frail structure and made the dog a
prisoner. She had lain there many
days when the wreckers found her.
They fed her through a small opening
some time before they were able to
release her.
Medical men say a man could not
live longer than six days under like
circumstances.-Ch Chicago Record-Her-

EFFECTS OF PROSPERITY.

In the six years of the country's
greatest prosperity. from 1897 to 1908,
average prices of breadstuffs advanced
Sc per cent, meats 231 per cent, dairy
and garden products SOL per cent,
and clothing 241. All these we're prod
acts of the farmer and stockman who
profited more than any other class of
the community by these advances.
The miner benefited 42.1 per cent by
that advance in the average price of
metals. The only decrease in the
average prices of commodities in that
period was in railway freight rates
which decreased from 1898 per ton
mile In 1897 to 1853 in 1903, loss
of "A per cent. The report of the In
terstate Commerce Commission shows
that the average increase in the pay
of railroad employees in the period IVES
trifle above 85 per cent.

If the earth is that on the island OF

inhabitants number about seventy ana

company of British artillery during
the time of the great Bontparte's ex'
lie at st. Helena. When t. {. Kerry

twelve years ago he found sailor

BURGLAR Neatly Trapped.

When the assistants at a Brlstoi
(Eng) pawnbroker's entered the prem
Uses the other morning they saw a
man crouching in corner behind a
box. He tried to rush past file OF
customers waiting to be served, but
was secured. He proved to be Rich
ard Halstead, mason, and in his
possession was jewelry worth over
600 Investigation showed that he
had been curiously trapped. He had
evidently gained access to the prem
Uses by cutting hole in the roof
He was, however, unable to get to the
shop below on account of an iron
door on the staircase. AS a last re-
sort, and being a small man, he got
into the shop by sliding down a rope
in a small wooden lift. The rope
however, broke, and he came down
with a run His position was not
fully realized till, having secured the
jewelry, he was about to take his de
parture. Then he found all the doors
safely locked and the rope in the lift
broken. With no possible means Of
egress he had to wait till the shor
was opened.

Justice to Theater owners.

DIR. Darlington, commissioner of the
New York board of health, makes the
interesting suggestion that if the own
ers of the ten theaters in that city
which Chief Croker says ought to be
rebuilt were driven to that trifling ex-
pense the city would in justice have
to reimburse them for the $4,000 or
$40 900 each which they have spent
since that time last year on improve
ments and alterations ordered by the
board Of health for the ostensible pur-
pose of making the houses safe.
There are no quasi public buildings in
New York upon which so much
money has been spent as on the thea
tiers.

down four thousand feet below the
bottom of Lake Superior, which itself
