ANOTHER DREADFUL DISASTER
IN The ANTHRACITE COAL
Il MINES NEAR WiLkESBARRE
8(By Publishers Press.)

WILKESBARRE, Pa, April 20.
Another dreadful disaster of the an.
$thraclte coal mines occurred in this
scitySat $3.50 this morning when ten
miners fell to their death in the Con-
syngham shaft, of the Delaware and
Hudson Company, by the breaking of
the lhoisting rope.
The shaft is nearly one thousand
feet and the men were being lowered
to their work when the accident oc-
cured. All were dashed to the bot
tom, mangled mass of flesh and
bone.
Mine officials from the surrounding
territory, and others hurried to the
scene.
Crowds of excited people gathered
around the mouth of the shaft and
the usual heart rending scenes we're
enacted by women and children. The
bodies have not yet been taken out
and are being identified with difficult
aty.s
The mine cage was the third to be
lowered. Engineer William Cunning
ham was at the throttle, and ten men,
miners and their laborers boarded the
cage. The engineer says the machn-
gery5 was working perfectly and that
ghe had his engines under. control,
slowed down to stop at the hllman
vein landing, $50 feet from the sur.
face. Without warning the rope
snapped and the carriage with Its hu.
sman load dropped four hundred feet

Son the other side of the shaft found
&the bodies mangled in horrible
manner. None Of the bodies have yet
been taken out but several undertak-

Up to noon to-day but seven of the
dead have been identified. They are:

the twisted post and scroll shaped leg
which characterized the chairs of that
period.
In English furniture dating anywhere
from the beginning of the restoration to
the accession of Queen Anne there is
peculiarly gracious charm which speaks
loudly of French influence. In fact
England took her fashions from France
The renaissance came to her from
France even as it came to that country
from Italy and was changed somewhat,
though very little in its progress.
A rich and typical example of what
this French taste produced is chair
which carries its origin clearly stamped
upon it. The long. richly carved oval
of the back inclosing the fine cane
meshes, the legs, ties and stretchers are
all of French origin and closely related
to that Jacobean rocco of which we
have also very beautiful examples, and
between the two there is no great diff
ference, both seeming to belong to the
same period. There is an air of state
illness and repose about the latter
which seems to fit it for the occupation
of some grande dame or reverend seign-
Tor. Like its fellow, it is of walnut,
which in the days before mahogany was
very. popular on account of being some
what lighter and more elegant than
oak ALICE LITTLE.

That there is a strong revival in ia
vor of the Louis XIV. heel is a fact made
apparent enough by its temperance.
and it is said that the leading shops are
receiving three times as many orders
as was the case six months ago. An
exhibition of footgear held not very
long ago disclosed the undoubted fact
that the average size of the feminine
foot has increased to No. 5. It is to be
remarked that women who compress
their feet into a shoe that is a size too
small for them are in the minority, and
without doubt the cut of a shoe is its
desirable feature rather than its meas
urement. The white. kid slippers for
evening wear, with their garnishments
of silver thread and cleaning paillettes
in latticework design, are fit for fairy
princess. So are the soft tinted ball
slippers i'll palest blue, green, mauve
and pink kid, all adorned with gold or
jeweled in a way delightful to behold
There are black kid and satin shoes
galore carried out with finest cut jet
ornamentation and motor boots in black
or brown, cozily lined, and in some
cases edged with fur, but so cunningly
designed as to do away with the least
suggestion of clurnsiness.

Some new and wonderful "cures"
which are warranted to restore tone to
a jaded system and give the patient a
dazzling. complexion have recently been
suggested.
The first is a sand cure. The patient
is buried up to the neck in sand. After
having enjoyed the sand next to his
skin for an hour or two he is given
bath.
This cure also includes two vinegar
baths week, and it offers special in
ducements to ladies.
The second is an orange cure. Par
ticulars Of this cure are somewhat
vague but it is also good for the COM
plexion.
An eminent medical man refused to
consider these cures seriously. They
sounded. he said, like a lunatic's cure
for lunacy.
He could remember one case of a sand
cure, and this was the melancholy ex-
perience of a sailor who, buried up to
his neck in sand for the cure of scurvy,
had his head eaten off by a wandering
crocodile

Henri II toque. Turbans are also worn
with the demitoiIet as well as with the
chic toilette de reception For the Ri
viera there are some charming samples
of the marquise toque trimmed with
garlands of roses and violets.
At the Paris theaters one always sees
the latest fashions as well as forerun-
ners of those to come For instance,
Mile Arnande Cassive is wearing in
lie Crime d'Aix'' a toilet of the newest
shade of red, called blood red" The
material is barege, and the skirt is
trimmed with wide bands and buttons
of crepe de chine of the same hue.
About the waist is a very deep pointed,
swathed ceinture of the crepe de chine
caught with large buttons to corre-
spond with the skirt. Over the bodice
is worn a very small zouave of oriental
tons to match. The hat worn with this
costume is of quite a new shape. It is
of gold tissue, raised high at the back
by a velvet bandeau. The rim in front
is caught up close to the crown by a
large rose with gold leaves and some
lovely white ostrich tips. A fascinating
wrap of white cloth is worn with this
frock. The back is full and loose, but
the front is cut away, so that it meets
only where it fastens across the breast
The sleeves, which reach only to the
elbow, are very full and are inserted
with coarse Irish lace. This lace also
forms stole collar for the wrap.

to make room for new stock. Dainty
insertions of lace and embroidery and
remnants of ribbon come in handy for
tea gowns and jackets. In fact, any
thing really good comes in sooner or
later. from a bit OF jeweled lace to a
cambria handkerchief, but nothing
cheap or tawdry can ever be used with
good effect. Above all, don't buy gold

Lananene Knots.

The Japanese have no use for but
tons, buckles or hooks and eyes. Cord
serves every purpose of fastening and
furnishes artistic possibilities seeming
ly without end. The japanese have
hundreds of knots. Some are as old as
the time when history was recorded by
a series of knots, just as it was in
China and Peru before writing was in
vented. There are dozens of knots in
common and ceremonial usage, and
these every Japanese child can tie. To
name only a few, there are plum bios
som, cherry blossom, iris, chrysanthe-
mum and pine tree knots. There are
Fujiyama knots. turtle and stork knots,
the "old MANS" which is easy to tie;
the "old wonan's" and many others.

1t is a fad among fashionable folk this
winter to cover their long dressing ia
bles with thick white glass with a bev-
eled edge. These are used on all kinds
of wood and also with the cloth draped
bureaus. The crystal is about quarter
of an inch thick and is cut to measure.
It is placed over a coIored cover of sat
in or silk and is wonderfully effective
4 damp cloth keeps it perfectly free
from dust, and it does not wear out, so
while it is expensive at first it outlasts
n hundred lace and embroidered COW
ers. The toilet articles are laid on it.
silver would scratch it, but the fash
ionabIe toilet sets are not made of sill
yer. When this metal is used tiny lace
doilfes are placed under the heaviest
pieces. All the boxes, bottles and mir
rors. being of glass, are not injurious
The. candles are of crystal or Florent1ne
silverware and look prettier when they
have tiny lace pieces under them As
some of the expensive dressing tables
are from six to eight feet long one can
use up any amount of toilet articles in
covering them.

ing, and the present day waistband fits
like corset.
The redingote is a feature of outdoor
modes in cloth and is trimmed with all
kinds of fur. It reaches below the
knees and is worn with a long skirt.
The velvet gown, trimmed with ermine
and embroidery, is almost invariably
worn with a chemisette or jabot of lace.
The waistcoat plays an important part
in the present styles trimmed with lace
or in daintily embroidered kid. or suede
or gold brocade. Every mode is ex-
ceedingly artistic, and fabrics and
styles alike are beautiful, being chiefly
revivaIs of the French empire.
Hats. are growing wider at the back
and higher than ever, though, on the
whole, they are somewhat smaller than
they have been. The maFquise hat
seems never to be out of style. and
