in the state; while a score of othel $
have been summoned.
In the budget OF sensational gossip
Is chapter telling OF the sudden pros
psiity of rural lawmakers.
One lawmaker had fine team 81
houses, SO a story goes, which he want
ed TO sell.
How much do you want for the
tborouehbreds? asked a politician.
Five thousand dollars" the law
maker is said to have replied.
ITS a little high but guess we
have got to meet your price" we're the
politicians words in closing the dea,
IF It is true it Is certainly suspi
rlous circumstance" said Circuit At

Those who are thought to have

MINING NOTES.
Earth Swallows Mining Plant.

The earth literally opened in
Joplin, Mo-, April 20 and swal-
lowed the $4,000 mining plant Of
the Holy Smoke, on the Aylor
land south of Carterville, re-
ducing that mill to kindling
wood and half burying the derbis
100 feet below the surface. The
$4,000 contracting ore plant of
the Lucky Judge, adjoining, is
SO seriously threatened by an ex-
tension of the cavein that it is
being rapidly dismantled.
The hole in which the Holy
Smoke mill went down is 400
feet broad and 100 feet deep,
with a capacity of 100000
cubic feet of earth.
Fifteen men at work in the
underground drifts were warned
by the groaning of the earth and
escaped an hour before the fret
crash came.
State Mine Inspector Ragland
is aroused by this and another
disastrous cave-in short time
ago under the tracks of two rail-
roads in Joplin, and declares that
a radical change in the cave sys.
tenn of zinc mining must soon
come about.
