FEARFUL ACCIDENT IN JONES 4

s@.re IN Surface.

l.egaunee, Mich, Sept. 21.-By a
cage plunging rs feet down the shaft
of the Jones & Laughlin Steel com
pany mine, II men were killed and
seven fatally injured Friday.
The cage with it's human freight
was being lowered on it's first trip
for the day when the brake on the
hoisting drum suddenly failed to hold.
Two other men sprang to the assist
ance the one at the brake wheel,
but their comined efforts did not
avail and the wire cable continued to
unreel from the drum like thread
from bobbin.
Cable Breaks, Cage Drops.
The cage shot down a couple Of
hundred feet before kink in the too
rapidly paying out cable caused it to
part and from that point the cage had
a sheer drop to the bottom Of the
shaft. The safety catches with which
it was equipped failed to operate. The
surging of the cable tore out part of
the side of the engine house and rip.
ped out several of the sheaves in and
about the shafthouse. ~
The machinery installed is not en-
tirely new, but it had been thoroughly
overhauled and the officials cannot &C.
count for the sudden ineffciency of
the hoisting gear. The accident is the
worst that has occurred in any mine
in the city since the cavein at the Ne
guanee mine January Z, 1902, en-
tombing ten men.
Seven Fatally Hurt.
Workmen at the bottom of the mine
Immediately set about the grewsome
task of removing the dead. Seven
men were found still alive, but they
are fatally hurt.
Thousands of people soon congre.
gated about the main shaft. In the
crowd were the wives and children of
the 200 men who are employed in the
mine. Each thought that husband or
parent or a son was in the cage. There
was no way Of RELIEVING the suspense
as the fallen cage blocked the exit.
It was fully two hours before the
cable was adjusted so that the cage
could be raised to the surface.
When all the miners came from un.
der ground and many anxious wives
and others failed to find members OF
their families who worked in the
mine, the scene was awful. The priests
and ministers moved among the peo
pie consoling them and begging them
to be calm. !G>

HElRESS is FATALLY SHOT.
Married Man Wounds Her and Tries
to Kill Himself.

New York, Sept. 19.-Droga Seigel,
an heiress, 20 years of age, and daugh-
ter of a colonel in the Austrian army
now dead, was fatally shot Wednesday
night by Julius Hoffman, a married

The tragedy Vas the outcome of
jealousy on the part of Hoffman, who,
after shooting Miss Seigel, tried to
shoot himself, but was prevented by
the dying girl.
Miss Seigel was taken to hospital,
still declaring her love for Hoffman.
She would have come into fortune of
100000 year hence.

STEAMER WRECKED; SEVEN DIE
The Alexander Nimmick Lost Q
South Shore Of Lake Superior.

Detroit, Mich, Sept. 23.-The $780,
900 lake steamer Alexander Nimmick,
Of Cleveland, O., was wrecked Satur-
day night on the bleak southern shore
of Lake Superior, 13 miles west OF
White Fish point. No living soul was
within many miles of the desolate
place where the survivors laboriously
managed to pilot their lifeboats
through the raging surf; no help was
at hand to minister to the exhausted
and frozen sailors or to care for the
bodies of the six or seven victims,
washed up on the rocks by the waves.
The dead are: Capt. John Randall,
of Algonac, Mich; Stewart Thomas
Parent, of Port Huron, Mich, and
several sailors. First Mate James
Hayes, of Ecorse, q suburb Of De
troit, also is supposed to be among

only two years old, are bearing well

Mixed the Infants Tn.

At Southport, England, some years
ago, births took place in two families
living in the same house. In one case
twins arrived, and single in the 9TH
er. The three children were being
washed and dressed, and the father
of the twins coming in, the three were
placed in one bed with the idea of
leading him to believe that his wife
had given birth to triplets. The joke,
for that was all which was intended,
succeeded to the full-for the time at
least-and then came the question Of
separating the infants and restoring
them to their. respective mothers.
Here a difficulty presented itself, and
the women in attendance were
shocked to find themselves unable to
say which was which. A Liverpool
paper says the Identification has not
yet been satisfactorily established.
and it is a case in which even Solo,
mon might be puzzled.

FOR HAPPY MARRIED LIFE.
Good Manners Go Far to Preserve
Peace and Concord.

A great many people seem to think
that the marriage ceremony absolves
them from all further courtesies and
attentions to the person whom they
have wed. After that they are always
in negligee, both as to manners and
clothes, when they are at home This
is fatal mistake. Because a woman
is married is no excuse for her going
untidily about the house, and telling
her husband home truths that hurt his
vanity. Because a woman is his wife
gives man no right to say things to
her he would not dare to say to any
other lady who possessed a big, able
bodied brother. Good manners are the
preservation of peace and concord,
and are warranted to keep happiness
in any climate. The problem OF how
to be happy though married is really
no problem at all. No mystery should
ever have been made of it. 1t is mere
ly fair dealing in fair partnership
giving the other party the privileges
and perquisites you assume for your.
self, and allowing the person you love
as much consideration and civility as
you would show stranger.-New
York Weekly.

GIFT NOT ALL A GIFT.
Generosity That Was Purely the Re
suit of Accident.

A missionary bishop told this story
about F. Marion Crawford, the famous
novelist:
"Mr. Crawford went to school," he
said, lin Concord, and one day he was
taken to call at a Concord clergy
mans.
THE clergyman had a missionary
box on his drawing room table, and,
time hanging heavily on the boys
hands. he amused himself with try
ing whether silver dollar--it was
all the money he had in the world,
and he had converted it into that gi-
gantic coin for safety-would go into
the slit in the box's top.
1T was close fit, but unfortunate
ly it did go. and the coin slipped out
Of the embryo authors fingers. There
was terrible crash of silver falling
among the coppers-and then the boy,
as the novelists say, knew no more
when he came to himself he found
the clergyman and his family in rap
lures over his generosity"

Denver Republican on Roosevelt
and BuChtel.

Through a chain of circumstances
over which neither side had control an
impression prevailed for year or more
at the White House that the Repu5li-
can party in Colorado was not in har-
mony with the national administration
Meddlers as well as busybodies from
other parties carried tales to Washing
ton. A United States senator, who has
since been relegated, posing as mot
Democrat, not Republican, but just
Independent. worked harm in the
direction named. In recent times, how
ever. the atmosphere has changed.
Governor Buchtel has been largely re-
sponsible. He has taken such a deci-
sive. open-hearted stand on every mat
ter that has been before the state that
the nation has come to look this way.
That characteristic letter from the
president to Colorado's executive, which
was published yesterday, is an evidence
that the White House and the state
capitol are close together as they should
be. Governor Buchtel by nature is of
the Roosevelt mold. He has the same
direct manner of getting it in brief
time. Although not common politi-
clan, under the common acceptation,
Colorado's executive. like the nation $
head. beats the professional at his own
game. He plays in the open.
Colorado is sincerely for Roosevelt.
The Republican party will stand by him
as long as there is hope of the president
being prevailed upon to accept another
term. And Colorado Republicans are
heart and soul with Buchtel in his good
work. They know that he cannot be
bossed and they love him. as they love
Roosevelt. for the enemies he has made.
