Heirs of the Air.

The, owls, solemn birds, strongly i'm bued with the obligations of the mar ried state, mostly begin to sit as soon as the first egg appears, so that the eggs. having a fair field and no favor, hatch out in precisely the same order as that In which they are laid. With the majority of smaller birds another habit prevails. for these do not con- mence to sit in earnest until the full clutch, perhaps dozen in number, is complete. This obviously means that the earlier eggs in the nest have had time to grow cold and must be warmed up again. As result, the eggs are matched out in the inverse order of lay ing. It Is a good thing that bird life is devoid of litigation. otherwise what terrible arguments this difference be- tween first laid and first matched might lead to.

Duel Averted.

Carducci, the great Italian poet, came near having duel one day. He pos sessed fine spirit of contradiction and had the chara cteristics of a fighter. Once while travelling in Lombardy he was in railway compartment with an army officer, who did not recognize him. Conversation turned upon the latest literary productions. They spoke of poem by the author of "Odes Bar bares," which had just appeared.
 This Carducci," exclaimed the off cer, with enthusiasm, "is a superb gen. jus, the greatest since Dante, the equal of Dante himself"
 "Humph" said the other. "A gen. jus? That's too much to say. I find him mediocre"
 "Mediocre, sir? You don't know any. thing about it."

was announced that Mir. Bast Sey- mour and Miss Eunice Halliday would choose sides, and they found them selves at once the center of interest. Each sought to decline, but each was pushed forward. Each line when flll- ed numbered eighty, and then the spelling began. The first five minutes did the business for twenty. In quarter of an hour there were only ten spoilers on their feet Five minutes later Eunice and Burt alone were left. They stood facing each oth- CT, though not looking into each others eyes. Burt looked obstinate, and the girl had her chin in the air. It was called the greatest contest of the dec ade. For twenty minutes the teacher hunted out the hard words, but could trap neither. Then Burt was caught and went down, and the victory was awarded the girl amid cheers. Five minutes later the crowd broke up, and Eunice was hunting for her wraps when a hand was laid on her arm and voice whispered:
 "Euny how do you spell idiot for give and 'love?"
 "The simplest way" she replied as she turned to Burt. + 4 "Then ride home with me. I brought my buggy on purpose"

Died on Way Out.

One man, an unidentified foreigner, managed to climb to the top of the first airshaft, but dropped dead there. No sign of life has come from the oth- CTS.
 Just after the night force entered the shaft there was flash swhich lighted up the mine and all around it. There was a roar as tons of coal and slate crashed down into the entries, crowded with workmen. Then utter darkness followed, the explosion put ting out of business completely the lighting and air facilities of the mine. The mine immediately filled with gases, and several not hurt by the explosion perished while running to get into the fresh air.
 The explosion shook buildings in Fayette City and could be heard for miles.

In the homes of miners the explosion fell like a death signal and emptied every miners cottage in the vicinity. The occupants of these. men. women and children, gathered around the mine this morning.
 The Naomi mine is one of the oldest operated by the United Coal company, which has it's principal offices in Pitts burg. It is one of the biggest mines fin the soft coal region. The property loss will be enormous.

Rescuers Show Unparalleled Bravery.
 Pittsburg, Dec 3.-Thirteen bodies of the forty-seven men who were kill ed by an explosion in the Naomi mine at Fayette City had beeu carried to the foot of the airshaft at midnight. The men had been so frightfully burned and mutilated that Identification is al- most impossible. The greater number of the dead have not yet been reached because they are in chambers still fill ed with the deathly afterdamp. Until this is forced out by the fans it will be impossible to get the other bodies. The rescuing parties, although working in short shifts, are often con- pelled to return to the surface to breathe pure air to eXpel the after damp from their lungs.
 Rescuers Show Bravery. Among the rescuers who have been overcome and rendered unconscious by the afterdamp are William Moorehead, the first man to enter the mine after the explosion, who is in a serious con- | dition; Henry Loutitt, mine inspector, who is still unconscious; Thomas Thompson, who is under the care of physicians, and James Henderson, the superintendent, who was dragged out of the mine unconscious. Henry | Schmidt, an engineer. was also over come after several trips in the mine and Is in serious condition.
 The bravery of these men who faced 1 death to reach the bodies of the en- tombed miners is said to be almost un- paralleled in the history of such dis asters. After having been overcome many times they continued the visits to the mines, to quit only when drag ged out.
 Crowd at Entrance.
 All day long crowd, estimated at 2,000 persons, has stood about the mouth of the ill fated mine awaiting some news from the entombed men. Hundreds of these persons are rela- tives or friends of the unfortunate miners, and their grief is pitiful.
 According to statements made, there are five Americans in the mine. It is said a miner entering an old working with an open lamp caused the explo- sion. The mine employs from 275 to 300 regularly, about One-fourth of them driving entry at night, but on Sunday nights only about half the night force goes to work.
 The mine is of the shaft type, and the concrete sid' of the entry were broken down so as to completely close the passage back considerable dis tance About 100 feet from the en- trance Is located the first airshaft and from this deadly gas is pouring in great volumes.
 The gas found in mines in this terri tory Is so poisonous that no human being can live in it for more than few minutes, and for this reason 1t is certain that not one of the entombed men is still alive.

Lightning Rod Deal.

About two years ago a big man
driving fine team and accompanied
by young man, whom he said was
his son, turned up in the eastern
part of Geary county at the home Of
Peter Haffner- The big man gave
the name of J. J. Mccain. He made
no bones about it that he was a
lightning rod agent He told Mr.
Haffnsr that he was going to place
lighting rods on four barns between
that place and Topeka as an adver-
tisement and that the rods would be
put up free of cost in these four in
stances In addition he said that he
would give an insurance policy on
the barn All that he asked was
his dinner, feed for his team and per-
mission to put up the rods, all of
which Mr.. Haffner gave. After the
lightning rods had been put up, Mr..
Haffner signed a receipt for the light
ming rods. This receipt has just
turned up in Kansas City, Kan, in
the form of a note for $147. Mccain
sold the note to F. E. Crane of Kan
sas City. The action against Peter
Haffner to collect the S147 has been
commenced In Kansas City, Kan.
Roark & Roark of Junction City are

Owing to the late freezes and dry
weather combined, those plants which
have furnished bee food in the early
part of the season have been killed
and many farmers who have stands
of bees are reporting that their bees
are dying for the want of food. The
alfalfa, which has always furnished
plenty of bloom, and the fruit trees
have failed on account of freezing
and there has been nothing else to
take their place.

The Santa Fe Wins.

An important suit, involving from
$4,000 to $4,000 damages to farms
along the line of the Santa Fee be-
tween Emporia and Neosho Rapids
was settled by jury bringing in a
verdict for the defendant. There
were ten cases against the Santa Fe,
the claim being that the embankment
of the road damned up the water,
thus causing destrictuon of the crops
and other property. One case, that
of G. W. White, was made a test and
in 1906 Judge Meckle sustained a de
murrer entered by defendants attor-
neys, Lambert & Higgins. The plain
tiffs appealed to the supreme court,
which reversed Judge Meckle, a re-
hearing of the case has occupied
most of this term of court and was
concluded by the jury deciding in ia
var of the defendants.

To Adjust Coal Rates.

The state board of railroad COM
missioners will take up the question
of coal rates within a short time as
a part of it's move in the general re-
adjustment of rates in Kansas, as an
nounced few days ago. A coal rate
bill was up in the legislature last
winter, but failed of passage. At
that time the railroads were not dis
posed to make much or a contest
against a reduction of from Is to 20
per cent in coal rates in the state.
The commissioners feel that this
should be one of the first tariffs talk
en- up as the coal rates are among the
most frequent causes of complaint
before the board.

Teachers Are Underpaid.

State Superintendent Fairchild be
lieves that school teachers in some
parts of Kansas do not receive
enough salary, and for that reason,
he says, it is difficult to keep up the
standard of efficiency of those who
are entrusted with the education of
the Kansas youth. Because of that
belief Mr.. Fairchild has said that he
expected when the next legislature
met to have prepared and introduced
a bill fixing the minimum salary of
school teachers. What this minimum
salary will be Mr.. Fairchild said that
he had not determined yet He called
attention to the minimum salaries
paid in Ohio and California. In the
former state it is s45 a month for
eight months work and in the latter
state $3.50 a year.

mistake has been made in the rail-

When the Missouri Pacific company

trackage and property in the county,
the company entirely omitted the
new coal yards at Cornell. There is
close to eight miles of track in these
