upper rooms are now a royal palace,
we made our way the first morning,
across the Ponto Vecehio like the
Rialto lined with shops on either
hand. Here we saw hewildering
numbers OF world famous originals.
of old masters, whose copies are
everywhere. Most vivid OF all the
memories that come back are Titian's
la Bella, and Magdalen, Rap
hael's Madonna OF the Grand Duke,
Michael Angeles Three Fates, Mu-
rillo's Madonna, and Andrea del
Sarto's st. John. Here also we.
were shown table whose mosaiS-
top six feet across was thirty years
in making and which was worth
81 $50, 900. On the following morn.
ing we visited the royal Ufizi gal
lery which was even more over
whelming in its collections and for
which one morning was tar too
brief. In this gallery is one small
room called the Tribune, every pic
ture and statue Of which is famous,
and which probably contains more
notable works, OF art than any other
room in the world. Here is the
celebrated Venus de Medici, in the
writer's odinion far interior to the.
Venus de Milo in the Louvre, Titi-
ans Venus, which is distinctly sens
ual, RaphaeYs Madonna and Child
with the Gold6n.ch, and his Rornar-

Michael Angeles Holy Family.

lnz Eeasinn wass just across fEona
Baptistery and Cathedral BY the side
OF which stands Giotto's Campanile,
generally considered the most beau
stiiul bell tower in existence. The
Baptistery is more than thousand
years old, and its bronze doors by
Ghiberti are considered the finest in
the world. We triei to do them
more justice than two prosperous
American travellers, who drove up
hastily with their wives, and paused
a moment before them. ''These are
the wonderful bronze doors by Lor-
EMO Ghiberti, representing New and
old Testament scenes. Michael
Angelo declared them fit to be the
gates Of paradise" began the guide.
"All right Wen trust his judgement;
drive on" cheerily called out the
man on the front seat. while his
companion on the seat behind leaned
forward to say, "Whose doors did
he say those were!?" The great
Cathedral with walls of white and
colored marble has unique beauty
all its own, but is principally inter
esting because here Savonarola
thundered against the crimes Of the
Medici and the sins Of the people.
Not far away is the house Of Dante,
still preserved after more than FIVE
centuries, whom his native city once
exiled and tardily honors. Most
impressive among the churches was
that OF St. Lorenzo, with its chapel
of the Medici and its new sacristy.
The chapel is a wonderful mausoleum
costing nearly five millions, whose
ceiling paintings are amazingly fresh
and whose walls Of marble and costly
mosaics give an air OF real granduer
to the structure. Close by is the
new sacristy, its statues Of Julian and
Lorenzo Medici with attendant fig-
ures of Day and Night and Dark
ness and Dawn SO often reproduced
in American museums. We also
visited the church OF Santissima
Annunziata especially to see Andrea
del Sartos Madonna OF the Sack, !"
painted nearly four hundred years
ago on the plastered walls OF the
porch surrounding the interior court
oiits cloister. noting as we passed
the figure Of an infant in swaddling
clothes by Andrea del Robbia over
the doors Of the Founding Hospital

tombs Of Calico and Michael Angelo,

A long drive in the beautiful Cascine

MEANSLOCKOUT
IN SEATTLE

SEATTLE, Dec. 13.-A lockout
of the organized building tradesmen
and building laborers employed by
more than hundred of the leading
building contractors of this city
will be precipitated If the employ
ers undertake to carry out reso-
luton which declares for the open
shop and which was adopted by the
Seattle Builders exchange and also
by the Master Builders association.
Should the lockout occur, several
hundred employees will be affected
and the building industry of the
city will be completely tied up, at
least temporarily.
The contractors of Seattle, as
represented by the Master Build
ers' association, signed up with the
labor unions last summer, the con-
tract to hold good for two years.
The unions claim that the contrac-
tors have organized the Seattle
Builders exchange for the purpose
of sidestepping their contract and
precipitating fight with the
unions.
The contractors claim the union
men broke faith with them and
cite the fact that the union brick
layers walked off the federal build
ing in this city on account of the
hiring of a nonunion man, notwith-
standing the union men invariably
demaded the closed shop and the
effort to hire a nonunion bricklay
err was regarded as hostile act on
the part Of the contractors.

A possible explanation which old
miners give me is that a string of
coal cars. breaking loose, plunged
down the tunnel and probably
crashed into lot of dynamite,
which is taken into the mines in
so pound lots.
This, it is thought, caused an ex-
plosion which in turn exploded the
first collection of deadly coal dust,
wrecking both mines.
Another story, and one that is
given credence despite the fact that
effect effort to hush it has been
made, is that a connection was
made between the two mines, and
that the gases rushing together eX-
ploded.
At the instance of Gov. Dawson
the entire mine inspection bureau
of the state is at work under the
direction of Chief Paul, in an eff
fort to locate the Ulame.
This is West Nirginia's fourth
mine horror in 10 months, and the
governor has promised swift pun
ishment if negligence has been
shown.
There was pathos enough in the
scenes at the mines while the
bodies were taken out to make a
nation weep.
