When the last explosion happened in
Inc Taft valley, the experts stated that
o thar half of the victims died from
suffocation in the choke-damp which
follows a pit fire.
Wllllam invented a way of escape in
MS helmet. He put a quart of water in
the top. and ran a short tube from there
TO a sponge. If you happened to find
yourself anywhere near an explosion.
you should run to this helmet, clan If
over your head, and put the sponge in
your mouth. Daily he watered this
helmet in his working-place at the nit

baby its daily dip. Sometimes William
yearned for an explosion. He wanted So
badly to test his patent helmet-and risk
suffocation.

David understood at once that a stona

He quickly turned and ran back into

Then he saw the ball of fire burst: he

fortllying herself against the fatiguas

much as she could. A few berries were
also found.
They made but a short distance the

walking far, soon became foot-sore.
Iney followed the shore of the lake
as closely as possible, both because of
the easier walking found there and al.
SO to keep near a supply Of fresh water.
AT night they sought shelter beneath
a tree. and each Of the men took turns
IN watching, while Renee, wrapped in
Tontfs coat, slept soundly after the
fatigue of the day. They proceeded
thus for a week, s~cantily supplied with
food, although Akiesko exerted all of
his skill and ingenuity in his ~endeavors
to entrap small game or catch an oc-
casional fish, and they had progressed
SO far that Tonti began to feel easier
as to their ultimate safety. One day
they were resting about noon beneath
a tall fir-tree when Pcmpon was sud-
denly seized with the desire to climb
to the top after a possible nest that he
thought he spied high up among the
branches. He had hardly reached the

weH-nigh exhausted and remained on

called encouragingly, but they did not
hear him, and sank again. AS he
reached the spot where they had dis

arose from the depths, but he was
alone. Rreathless and half drowned
he was. and Tonti had to support him
to enable him to regain his strength.
He soon learned that the nun had
maintained her grip on the Indians

time and had only released her hold
when they touched the bottom. Tonti
then dived, but to no purpose, and vet
a second time; she was not to be

Feeling his OWE strength beginning
to fail, and knowing that the strong
undercurrents had probably swept her
body from that locality, he turned his
attention to Pompon, who was maxi

the Mohegan behind to swim about and
watch for the nuns temperance. He
reached Pompon, who had been occu-

clambering up again, just in time. and
with him in tow turned toward the
shore. The Indian soon relieved him
OF this weight, for he was fast reaching

William put his lamp down. Owing
to the roughness of the bottom coal the
lamp leaned a little, and the flame
smoked and burned red up against the
little circular glass. That would soon
crack it. So William put a little bit of
Stag under the lowest side of the lamp
