RLAMEs SPARKS FROM WIRES
Fire Explosion at the Naomi Mines
In Pennsylvania.

Fire Explosion at the Naomi Mines
in Pennsylvania.
Bellevernon, Pa.-The coroner's jury
investigation of the explosion at
Naomi mines, near this city, some days
ago, which resulted in the death of "a
miners, returned verdict that the
men came to their deaths as a result
of an explosion of gas and dust.
The gas seems to have accumu-
lated from insufficient ventilation, and
was, we believe, ignited from sparks
of the electric wires or an open light,
at some point not definitely located !"
The verdict condemns the use of
electric wires on return air currents
and the use of open lights in all gas
eous mines. 1t recommends that the
mine commission appointed by the
state recommend such amendments
to the mining laws that human life
will be better protected and that the
present laws be more rigidly en-
forced"

PASS THIS AROUND
TELLS HOW TO MAKE A SIMPLE
RHEUMATISM CURE AT HOME
Prescription Given Which Sufferers of
Dread Disease Can Easily Make
Up and Try at Home at
Small Cost.

To relieve the worst form of Rheu-
matism, take teaspoonful of the fol-
lowing mixture after each meal and
at bedtime:
Fluid Extract Dandelion, one half
ounce; Compound Kargon, one ounce;
Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla, three
ounces,
These harmless ingredients can be
obtained from any druggist in the
smaller towns, and are easily mixed
by shaking them well in a bottle. Re
lief is generally felt from the first few
doses.
This prescription, states we'll
known authority in a Cleveland morn
ing paper, forces the clogged-up, mac
tive kidneys to filter and strain from
the blood the poisonous waste matter
and uric acid, which causes Rheuma-
tism.
AS Rheumatism is not only the most
painful and torturous disease, but dan
gerous to life, this simple recipe will
no doubt be greatly valued by many
sufferers here at home, who should
at once prepare the mixture to get
this relief
1t is said that person who would
take this prescription regularly, a dose
or two daily, or even a few times
week, would never have serious Kid
ney or Urinary disorders or Rheumat-
ism.
Cut this out and preserve it. Good
Rheumatism prescriptions which really
relieve are scarce, indeed, and when
you need it, you want it badly.

The sewer system which is being In
stalled in Occur d'Alene is undergoing
much severe criticism. This is found
from three standpoints. First, its al
legged high cost; second, its reported
defects, and third, the alleged impossi-
bility of seeing the profile by the gen
eral public.
A compromise has been reached in
connection with the strike of the tele.
phone girls at Wallace and the matter
of the strike has been settled.
Occur d'Alene high school won the
debate at Wallace over the team from
the Wallace high school by vote OF
to /.
The records of Shoshone county
show that the name of John King
appears as original locator in at least
half of the most valuable pieces of
ground in the Occur d'Alenes, and,
strange to say, ne located very little
ground that subsequent development
has not proved to be valuable.
The manager for the Western
Union Telegraph company in Wallace
has been notified by the city author
tiles that, by keeping the telegraph
Office open on Sundays, he is violating
the Idaho Sunday rest law" and must
close hereafter.
The lid has now been put on in
Wallace and not even a vapor of sun
day rest law violation is allowed to
escape.

Fairmont, w. Va, Dec 1.-THE
permanent relief committee headed by
Governor William o. Dawson, to pro-
vide for the widows and orphans in
distress through the recent explosion
at the mines of the Fairmont Coal
company at Monongah, has prepared
an appeal for funds that is being sent
to chambers of commerce and kindred
organizations all over the country.
All newspapers are urged to aid to-
ward the work by receiving contribu-
tions, acknowledging them through
their columns and sending them to the
treasurer.
Fully $50 widows and 1000 children
are left without any means of support,
AS near as can be determined, $50, 900
from all sources has been subscribed.
Upon the basis of $500 for each widow
and 500 for each child under 16 years
of age, $4,000 Will be required. At
least $4,000 will be necessary to pro-
vide, on relatively the same basis, for
the aggregated dependents of the un-
married victims, the many now unborn
children and the undoubted accessions
to the married victims list when com
plete information has been received.
"The committee feels that a total of
100000 will be required to carry out
the relief work.
"All checks should be made payable
to the Monongah Mines Relief com

Wealthy Farmer of Ohio Grows Child
ish in Eighty-fifth Year-Dead
From Heart Disease.

Marion, Ohio, Dec. 18.-John Cor
don, wealthy farmer of this county
burned $4,000 in bills Sunday, a short
time before he died. The charred
remnants of the bills were found by
members of his family, but as they
were mostly ashes no attempt will be
made to have them replaced.
Gordon was IS years old and in the
last few weeks had grown childish.
He had steadfastly refused to put the
$4,000, his savings for years, into a
bank, but kept it under his pillow.
This morning he amused himself by
setting fire to them and watching them
burn Shortly before noon, when one
of his sons entered the room, the re-
mains of the bills were found and Cor
don was lying dead on the bed. He
had succumbed to heart disease.

EE SAW A GAUNT WHITE ARM THRUST UP.
only a few inches under the soil out
side the western gate of the town OF
Siangyang.
A week later a man put his horse to
Craze on the spot. The beast found
good grass near the grave and brought
its foot down on the soil above the
coffin, the lid of which was broken
In a little while the owner of the horse
saw a gaunt white arm thrust up
through the hole made by the horses
hoof.
Thinking the dead mans "ghost" was
about to rise to avenge the insult offer
ed in the breaking of the coffin, the
watcher hurried up and began shovel
ing earth into the hole to keep the
ghost" down. A muffled voice ex-
postulated and begged to be freed,
claiming to be the living son Of TIL
Lung. The watcher fed in terror to
the town, where he told every one he
met of what had happened, The
ghosts" father urged that the ''ghost"
should be left alone and not further
disturbed.
A large crowd, however, went out Of
the city to view the wonder. The
"ghost7 kept begging most piteously
to be let out. One man had courage
enough to unearth the cover of the cof-
fin completely and open it, allowing
the 'resurrected" man to sit up. Rice
soup and wine were brought and raw
enously devoured by the "ghost," still
sitting upright in his coffin, imbedded
In the earth.
Finally the unhappy "ghost" was re-
leased and confined in a temple until
he could prove himself to be a living
man.

Set Robins Broken Leo.

About six weeks ago Hugh McGill of
Lock Haven, Pa, noticed an old robin
fluttering in the grass in front, of his
home. After some effort he caught it
with his hands and discovered that one
of the robins legs was broken. Taking
redbreast into the house, he washed
the bones, applied splints and careful
ly bandaged the leg. To his surprise
the bones knitted, and soon the leg was
found to be as good as ever. The robin
was given its freedom, but in apprecia-
ton of the kind act it comes about the
house many times every day and has
become so tame that it will eat crumbs
from McGills hand. The bird has a
=est in a-nearby tree and on being call
ed by McGill invariably flies to him.

Nothing can be good for everything.
Doing one thing well brings sue

only.
They cure sick kidneys.
They cure backache, every kidney
i'll.
II. Y. Terrell, veterinary surgeon,
living at 67 State street, Albany, Ga,
says: Although | have never been
laid up by kidney complaint, I have
suffered great deal with a lame and
aching back, and have felt like going
to bed on that account often enough.
This dull, heavy pain was with me
for several years. The urine was
also very dark and sluggish, and con-
tanned thick sediment. l tried all
kinds of remedies, and used prescrip-
tons of my own, but without success.
Nothing seemed to take hold until I
procured Doan's Kidney Pills. They
were exactly suited to my case. Since
using the pills l have not been both
cred with those pains, and the kid
ney secretions have been restored to
a normal color and consistency"
