GRAND JURY STILL
ON KtUtIT CASES

Tho Grand Jury Is evidently finding
the KCllett embczzlcment matter very
interesting one. At least IL departed
from its custom of holding one day
week sessions by converting again this
forenoon, after having met yesterday.
On both days the Kellctt matter was
the only case considered Chief Clerk
Henry Smith and Clerk Jas Thompson
Of the judiciary Department were the
only witnesses called. They brought
with them many papers relating to the
estates and cases of which Kcllctt for
mcrly had charge in his capacity as
clerk OF Judge De Bolts court. These
matters have been thoroughly investi-
gated by Smith and Thompson and il
is intimatcd that there is reason to be-
licvC that some Of the signatures found
on the vouchers are forged.

missioner.

Years ago, when Cecil Rhoades was
in the height Of his African successes
and was doing more than any other
man to develop the British interests
there, he startled the world by his pro-
posal of a Cape to Cairo railroad, and,
in spite OF the skepticism Of most peo-
pie, went steadily ahead with his plans,
and to-day what people then declared
was but a wild dream has come very
near being a reality.
In this country to-day we hear talk
of an Alaska to Patagonia railroad.
and we think of it as a bit of
romancing, but its protector is just as
much in earnest as was Rhoades in re-

A BOYS ADVENTURE
DANGLING OVER DEATH IN
COAL MINE SHAFT.
True Story Of a Pit Boys Nerve
Cage Suddenly Starts Leg
Broken and Hand Crushed
The Rescue.

There are numerous records OF
thrilling experiences and brave deeds
in connection with coal mines, but
this accident, which happened to a
boy, is somewhat unique.
The hero Of the incident is a pit boy
in the Garth colliery, situated at Mae
steg, in South Wales.
His duty is to mind the trans on
top of the pit and see that they run
properly on to the cage, in which men
and materials are lowered into the
mine.
On the day when the accident oc-
Cured, the boy was at his post as
usual. A cask of water, with a hose
attached, had been sent up in a tram
and placed on the cage, to be lowered
for the use of the mine horses.
A portion of the hose was hanging
over the side of the cage, and the lad,
noticing this considered that he would
have ample time to put it right before
the cage started on its downward
journey. He stepped partly on to the
Su5Cs LII otOOu Will lilo AAShb wv
inside it, and his left on the staging at
the pit head.
Suddenly the cage began to move.
The boy gripped a projecting por-
ton of the cage and chung to it, his
left leg falling between the cage and
the side of the shaft.
All might have gone well, but at a
certain portion of the shaft the cage
passes very close to some staging.
Against this the unhappy boy in pass
ing broke his leg.
Though in the greatest agony, the
boy hung on.
1t was his only chance.
At this point, one of his companions
saw what had happened. He signalled

own commission to make final studies
of the scheme, and it's conclusions are
TO be submitted to the lower house for
action.
The modern engineers have a IT.
tanic task before them to enlarge the
Bordeamx-Narbonne system to a deep
sea ship canal-a ship canal that must
climb and descend a mountain water
shed! Slfe gIe e
Eight years will be required. Q The
cost is estimated at a minimum of
$160, 000D00, although al early com
mission set it at 5000, 000, 900 and still
another at $500 900, 900. The latter cal.
culation has been proved erroneous.
The present estimates foresee 300,-
900 workmen, guided by 80 chief en-
gineers and 200 overseers, with dig
ging and tunneling machines driven by
$1,000 horsepower. ~
The route is straight from Arcachon
to Agen on the Garonne, S6 miles of
easy cutting, without a single lock.
The waters of the Garonnes are to
be reinforced from many a torrent Of

Garonne, strongly banked and be-
come at last the safe drain aof these
mountain torrents, will take the fleets
of war and commerce to Toulouse-be-
come the central maritime arsenal of
France.
From Toulouse to Castelnaudry. the
route is along the old bed of the canal
of Languedoc, of Clara Wards ances-
tor-by-marriage. The old 81 canal
abounds in locks. To mount to the
lock of the ocean,, where begins the up

feet by means of II locks in a distance
of 80 miles. The upper race is 81
miles long and terminates at the lock
OF the Mediterranean. To descend to
the Mediterranean the work of Riuuet
extends over ia miles, descending a
gradient of nearly 600 feet by means of
48 locks.
French commerce waits upon the
canal for its restoration. While the
French coasting trade is reduced to
5000, 900 tons a year. that of Great
Britain is over 120, 000, 000>tons. The

to the engine-man to stop the cage,
and it was brought to a %standstill 1876
yards from the starting point, with
some suddenness.
The jerk caused the boys left hand
by which he was clinging, to become
jammed in the ropes by which the
cage is worked.
He dared not let go, although in in
tense pain His broken leg prevented
him from climbing into the cage.
How was he to be rescued?
1t was impossible to bring the cage
to the surface again, since the boys
leg would catch in the staging which
had already broken it, and he might
be dashed to the foot of the shaft.
The difficulty was solved by a cool
headed pitman.
He climbed down the guide ropes
and pulled the suffering lad into the
cage.
Both were then brought to the sur
face, when the lads injuries were at
tended to.
He said that he was not frightened
although he hung over a shaft 800
yards deep.
He knew exactly what was happen
