TEN MINERS
FALL TO DEATH
Breaking Of Rope Precipitated Cage

BODIES WERE BURIED IN SUMP

Wilkesbarre, Pa, April 27.-Ten
ut the Conyngham mine of the Della
ware and Hudson company. located in
the northern part of this city. The
men were being lowered into the mine.
and when $50 feet from the surface the
rope broke and the cage fell to the
bottom of the shaft, a distance of 400
feet A rescuing party was at once
organized. and they found the bodies
OF the men in the stump at the bottom
of the shaft, beneath a mass of debris.
They were terribly mangled. Most of
the victims lived in the vicinity of the
mine. and when the rescuers brought
the crushed forms to the surface a
large crowd was in waiting. The grief
of the relatives of the dead was heart
rending.
Superintendent Foote says he is at
a loss to account for the accident. An
examination of the rope was made be-
fore the first cage of human freight
was lowered into the mine, and it was
found to be all right.
William Cunningham. who is said 20
be one of the most reliable men in the
employ of the company. was the engi-
neer in charge of the hosting carriage.
He says everything went well until tho
fatal trip. He got the signal to lower
and stop at the Hillman vein, which
Is $50 feet from the surface. When
the Hillman vein was reached he slowed
up. Without any warning the rope
snapped and the carriage containing
the 10 men dropped like a shot to tho
bottom. The carriage had all the safe
~ appliances, and its speed should
have been checked before il reached
the bottom. but as far as can be learned
the catcher" did not work. Eight Of
the dead were Poles and two others
English-speaking miners.
The English-speaking miners killed
were Charles Rochel and Frank Bar
ney. Both were married and leave
families. The other victims were Au-
gust Zayarcy. John Jovetski. Henry
McGraw. Anthony Ziblick. Lawrence
Warwick. Jonas Matondiek, Michael
Zayntis and John Chase.
All the foreignerds except one were
married and leave large families.

For years DIR. Hartman used Peruna
in his private practice as a regular
prescription. He had no thought of
manufacturing it or advertising it as a
proprietary medicine until there was a
demand made upon him by his many
friends, who clamored for the original
prescription.

DIR. Hartman estimates that he must
have prescribed Peruna for over forty
thousand patients before it was adver-

This explains why Peruna has be-
come so popular. 1t cures catarrh.
This is an amply sufficient reason why
it should become popular.
Catarrh is almost universal. Catarrh
is difficult to cure. The doctors do not
care to treat cases of catarrh at all.
1t therefore follows that when a rem
edy is devised that can be used in the
home at moderate cost, such remedy
should inevitably become popular.

Pe.ru-na Contains No Narcotics.

There are great many catarrh cures
in the world. The most of them are
LEGAL applications. Few of them are to
be used internally.
Unfortunately large number of these
catarrh remedies, especially the ones
prescribed by the doctors, contain mar
cotics of some sort. Cocaine, opium,
whisky, and other narcotics are used.
These remedies give temporary relief.
The patient thinks he is better right
away. In a few weeks, however, he dis
covers his mistake. Not only is his ca
tarrh no better, but he has acquired the
habit of using some narcotic. This
happens in multitude of cases.

The above official call for the meet ing of the citizens of Bisbee for the purpose of forming a Board of Trade was signed yesterday, and the place of meeting is designated the Copper Queen Hotel, and the hour s ?. m on Thursday evening next.
 The call is made with the request that it be made plain that all citizens of Bisbee, and throughout the Warren District, including the business men of Lowell, are requested to be pres. ent.
 The object of the meeting will be to take the preliminary steps necessary to perfect an organization of the kind proposed. At this meeting the first business would naturally be the selec- tion of temporary President, Secre- tary and Treasurer, and the appoint ment If committee on bylaws and constitution, and another on perma- nent organization.
 In this connection the Review hopes that all interested will make arrange. ments to be present at the Copper Queen Hotel on Thursday evening next. If you believe that a Board of Trade will be the means of forward ing the interests of the district and community in business and municip- al way. it is your duty as one of the citizens having the welfare of your city at heart, to be present at this meeting.
 The time has come f there is any public spirit in Bisbee to manifest it The city has been too long now with out an organization of this kind Bis bee should make herself felt in the af- fairs of the Territory, and the best way to do it is through the medium of a Board of Trade.
 The Review is in possession of pledges which means the first meet ing viii be well attended, and before the expiration of the present month the permannt organization will have been perfected.
