Thornley,, reaching in his pocket, drew
out three cigars.
Smoke those, old man. and when
you're smoking them remember me,
he said.
Rolber took the cigars. The steam
er sailed away and a few weeks later
letter from Thornley, told of his safe
arrival Everything was strange, he
said, but he hoped he would like the
country
Letters came at intervals and then
came the news of Thornley's death.
He had caught a fever and died sud
denly.
The news was great shock to
Rolber. It was as II he had lost a
brother.
OF the three cigars Thornley, had
given to him that day when he sailed
away two had been smoked. Roiber
preferred pipe TO cigar, and after
he heard Of Thornley's death be had
no desire to smoke the third. He put
the cigar on his manteipiece at home
under glass case, and every time he
looked at it his thoughts turned to
his dead friend.
Two years passed and still the cigar
remained in It's old place. Then, one
night, Rolber discovered that ali his
smoking tobacco was gone. He
searched high and low, but could not
discover anything to smoke. lie went
at last TO the mantelpiece and looked
at rhonley's cigar No, he would not
think of smoking that It would be a
sacrilege. He turned away and took
mp a book. But there was no pleasure
IN reading He was nervous and he
needed a smoke. He searched again
for some tobacco although he knew
there was none. Again ne turned to
read, but the craving OF the steady
amoker was too strong He went and
looked at the clsar. II had dried out,
but still was ia good condition. Sen.
timent and appetite struggled for a
minute or two and sentiment won.
Rolber walked away and tried to
satisfy his craving by putting his
empty pipe in his mouth and drawing
on II as il it were filled That did not
do He simply had to smoke, and at
last he turned back to the mantel-
piece, lifted ,he glass case and took
out Thornleys cigar Just a moment

with a sigh Of satisfaction he drew in

him that he never before had enjoyed

MINE DUST
 IS EXPLODED IS Men filed in West
 irginia. BODY os ONE IS RECOVERED For Nils Around Workmen Flock

 Loved Ones.

Charleston, W. Va, Jan. 1S.--An ex- plosion of dust in the mines of the Paint Creek Galleries Company on Paint Creek, twenty miles east of here, probably caused the death of eighteen miners who were in the mine at the time. Tho eighteen men were entombed and up to late hour tonight rescuing parties have only brought out one body, c. P. Neal, who was found near the mouth of the mine. The explosion occurred shortly afternoon when most of the men were on the outside at din- Ter. Had it not been for this there might have been several more victims of the explosion.
 It is known that at least eighteen men were in he mine and it Is believed by some that there were more in it at the time of the explosion. Those known to have been in the mine when the explosion took place were: Isaac Pancake, Charles Strider, Ben Strider, Ike Strider. three brothers; A. N. Soy- inc, James. Pat and Steve McCardle brothers; G. F. Neal, Peter Bridgeman Edward Bridgeman. Philip Bridgeman, Melvin Bridgeman. Miskel C1aud Saund- CTS, Pat Mclaughlin and James Me Laughlin.
 This is the second explosion in q West Virginia mine within the past two weeks The other was at Blue fields two weeks ago, when score of miners were killed.
 An accumulation of dust in tho mines is held responsible for the ac- cldent of today. With terrific noise the entire mine shook from the force of the concussion and a greater pof- tion of the mine collapsed.
 Noise Heard For Miles.
 The men were supposed to be about 300 feet inside of the mine when the explosion occurred. The noise could he heard many miles distant and min CTS from neighboring mining villages Immediately gathered to render aid. Res cuing squads formed and entered the main drift The fallen slate was clear ed away and brattices built to make a passage in the mine
 The body of Neal was first found, The work of rescue was slow and at 2 late hour tonight rescuers here had not reached the entombed men. ihe mouth of the mine was scene of wild excitement tonight. Men, women and children, relatives of the men entombed Lin the explosion, formed a heart rending scene as they searched for loved ones among the crowd. lmme- diateIy after the explosion the mines filled with smoke and made the work of the volunteer resouers difficult. peculiar feature in connection with the disaster is that while the explosion was caused by dust. the report of the deputy mine inspector who visited the mine several days ago stated that tho mine was in good condition. Chief Mine Inspector Paul left Tor the scene this afternoon to make a personal investigation.
 The mine was purchased several days ago from the Detroit and kanawaha Coal Company by the Paint Creek Col

 A4fNfnaSa. te&

Savannah, Ga, Jan. 1S.-sA jury was chosen today in the Greene and Gaynor case, and tomorrow morning the actual trial of the defendants upon the charges of conspiracy against the United States Government. .embezzlement and receiving funds known to have been embezzled from the United States, will commence. Witnesses will be placed upon the stand and the great struggle between the eminent counsel employed by the ac- cused and Special Assistant United States Attorney Erwin and cousel associated with him In the pro- secution of the case will open.
 Some thirty witnesses, it Is believed, will be examined, but there Is a greater mass of documentary evidence to De presented than the oral testimony will constitute.
 More trouble than had been anticl- mated arose when the selection of the fury was reached. It developed that quite a number were not without bias or prejudice in the case and the de- fense raised the question of their com potency. It was agreed that the ques- tions propounded witnesses under the procedure of the State courts should be followed. but almost Immediately It developed that the questions would nave to go DSNOHu LIOSt pANoSiAp~N+
 MT. Erwin asked to be permitted to question the biased jurors as to the cause and character of the prejudice. and these questions, permission having been accorded, developed that 1t was based upon the accounts Of the case jurors had read in the newspapers, but not through having heard or read the testimony given under oath.
 Two of the jurors declared that they E.E a., NI4A of the accused growing out of pre-" sumption of their guilt because they had fled to Canada. Tho defense ob- jected to all this line of questioning, assertinE that the voir de should be followed, and that the jurors were ipso facto, shown incompetent when they admitted any bias or prejudice. The court, however, took the contrary view, citing decisions of the united States Supreme Court of this view that bias based upon newspaper articles simply was not held to disqualify a juror, as it could easily be removed by evidence given under oath, and the application of the law to the facts thus disclosed. The defense exhausted its ten strikes" before the jury was finally selected, tho Government having had two strikes.
 The jury as chosen is as follows: Hope Thomas, Quitman; Henry G. Hes- ter. Valdosta; Wiley w. Haddock. Quit man: G. L. Touchstonc, Naylor; Robert S. Heath, Thomasville; James Gribbon.

DEMANDS FOR INCREASE.
Scale Committee Of Mine Workers Be-
 gins Work.

gins NOfks
 Indianapolis, Jan. 1S.-When Ne scale Committee of the United Mine Workers with Chairman o'Conuor, the committee chairman, presiding, today took I'D the resolution submitted to it, it was found that with hardly an ex- ception they contained demands for in- creases In wages.
 Most of these resolutions, which were presented by districts, sub-districts or locals, favor demanding a 10 to 10 per cent. increase and the indications are that the demand will be placed at a figure between the two.
 The work of the scale committee is made more complicated than ever this year because of the expiration of prac- tfcalIy all working contracts April | Though it's demands are to be laid only bcfore the operators of the central competitive tield-unless It's boundaries bc widened to take in Iowa and the Southwestern States--practieally all bituminous miners arc directly inter- ested in the committee's work because it is also to be used as the basis for their demands.
 As it stands at this time two joint conferences arc to be held in Indian apoIis this year, instead of only one. as i'm the past The miners of the Southwestern district will make an eff fort to gain their admittance to this important district. up to this time com posed of Indiana. Ohio, Illinois and Western Pennsylvania. but if the oper- ators succeeded in preventing this there will be two conferences.
 This presents one of the problems that complicates the work of the com mittee this year As in the past res olutions declaring for the run of mine basis in all States and for a fixed dif- ferential between pick and machine mining, will demand tho attention of the committee.
