TAMaRaCK ON FIRE.
It Is the Deepest Copper Mine In the
World

Milwaukee. Jan. ia special to the
Sentinel from Calumet. Mich, says:
The Tamarack copper mine, the deep
est in the world is on fire with three
men missing and almost certain to have
met death in a horrible form half to
three-quarters Of a mile below the,
earth's surface. Shaft NO Z where Che.
fire was discovered has been sealed nszer'
at the surface with he avy timbers.
tamped with clay and also shaft No. 3.
It may become necessary to cool shaft
No. also to smother the flames. The
mine contains several hundred million
feet of timber, largely pine, and unless
the access of air was shat off by her
metically sealing all open ings, the pro-
perty would be damaged to the extent
of many millions.

BOARD OF SAFETY
Elected Two Callmsa at Open
 Meeting Yesterday.

The difference between the mstlods which the old board of safety and the new used ill conducting their business was greatly emphasized at the meet Ing of the latter ill the tower in the Leavenworth street engine house yes terday afternoon. The old board seein'' ed to take every precantlou against publicity. The new one, It seems, ell- doayors to make it's meetings as pub lie as possible. The meeting yesterday afternoon was called for the purpose of electing two firemen. Mayor Thoms and Commissioners Andrews were aD- sent and Commissioners Minor presld- ed.
 Thomas Condon and John ]. Crane. who were elected callmen the day De fore. were oil hand. making 1t evident that they were to be the choice for the two vancancies. The old boards method was to examine tie candidate at one meeting and make the selection at the next, so that no one knew who was chosen until the announcement was made through the press. After Crane and Condon were examined .s.es- rerday afternoon they were allowed 10 remain in the room and see how many votes they got. This was quite de- part,lre from the old way. Condon saw that he was elected first and that he was given the unanimous vote of the board. and Crane saw that he afsD received four votes. the total number present. and each heard himself de clared elected. The men received the official notification of their elecrion 10 the fire department before , o'clock, whereup0n they reported to Chief Snagg. That was all the business that was done at the meeting.
 Condon was assigned to the Brook, lyn engine house and Crane to the Burton street engine house.
