Awful Disaster Takes Place In Coal

Primero is twenty miles west OF
Trinidad and is one of the most
important coal camps of the Colo
RADIO Fuel & Iron company. The
company owns the only telegraph
connecting with the mine and will
allow no news concerning the
disaster to be sent out except to
the company's offices. The Colo
RADIO Telephone company has a
telephone wire to the camp, but
the Primero office is in the fuel
company's store and the employees
there are not permitted to give

TRINIDAD, Colo, Jan. 23.-Twenty
miners, according to the most authen-
tic information available this evening,
lost their lives as a result of an ex-
plosion that OCCURRED at O'Clock this
morning in the dorado Fuel and Iron
twenty miles west of this city.
Twenty coffns have been ordered by
the company from a local undertak-
ing establishment.
Two of the dead are Frank Hobat,
miner, and r. j. Lumley, fire boss.
The names of the other men killed
have not been learned. as the shift
boss who checked up the men who
went into the mine last night, is miss
ing. All the men except Lumley were
foreigners, most of them being Italians.
The explosion stopped the air fan,
which was not repaired until late to-
day, and there is little chance that any
of the men in the mine at the time of
the explosion are still alive.
District superintendent Robert
O'Neill is personally directing the work
of rescue Volunteers from adjacent
mines are assisting. Rescuers have
work will be kept up continousuly until
the entire mine is explored.
During the day excitement ran high
and relatives of the entombed miners
stood waiting at the entrance to the
mine for a sight of any of the vic
Tins that might be brought to the sur
face.
An attempt is being made to force
air into the mine in the hope that
some of the entombed men may be
alive and thus prevent their suffocat-
ing.
The damage to the mine cannot be
learned tonight.
Late advices are that the mine is
badly wrecked. The rescue party has
penetrated 300 feet and recovered four
bodies, the names not being given.

Wanted to Lynch Him


AS soon as he was seen cries of Get
a rope" were heard, and soon several
were obtained. Members of the mob
then made haste to get their hands on
the fugitive, but he fought them off
with monkey wrench he carried. Pa
trolman Harris then appeared on the
scene and succeeded in capturing
Schuman and took him to the central
police station, where he was booked on
technical charge.
AT the station Schuman denied all
the charges made against him. He
carried package containing meat and
said he was on his way home to sup
per and had not attempted to touch the
young woman.
Miss Straich was hysterical after the
attack, and for hours was unable to tell
an Ineligible story of the occurrence.
When late at night she regained her
composure she told the following to a
| Herald reporter:
"I work &t the New Method laundry
and when / boarded the Slauson juno

the laundry building to go home 1 no

him and thought he would cease his

Thirty-ninth street he also got off and
I saw him stoop and take off his shoes
ana one OF MS SOCKS. MY curiosity was
aroused and 1 hesitated for a moment
to see what he was going to do. He
filed the sock with sand and then came
after me at quick pace.
Too Frightened to Scream
II became frightened then and
walked rapidly toward home, but he in
creased his gait, and I think 1 heard
him call to me. There was man on the
opposite side of the street whom knew

seemed I was unable to utter a word.
"As / turned into the vacant lot back
of our house the man began to run, and
catching up with me he caught me by
the throat and threw me to the ground.
I called out as loudly as l could, and
father came out of the house. The man
fled down the street. pursued by father,
and all the neighbors along the way of
the flight rushed out to help catch him.
"I never saw the man before, but
know of him to the extent that he has
wife and has been married about four
years. I am sure he was not drunk
when he attacked me, as he walked
without any faltering. 1 believe he

For nearly two hours the entire fire de-

before it was fairly under control.
The total loss is estimated at $45, 900,
of which $40, 900 is on the factory build
ing, with its contents, including ma
chinery and stock. Fifty operatives
were employed in the factory. From
the factory the fire spread to a carpen-

of the factory. The houses were occu-
pied by Charles Cables and Walter

GOOD ROADS.
Practical Suggestions by the State Com
missioner of Highways.

In a recent address, illustrated with
number 70 diagrams and forms, Paul
ID. Sargent. State Commissioner of
Highways, spoke in part as follows:
IF, when many of the Maine roads
were built, a little money had been ex-
pended for competent engineer to
show how the work should be done the
roads would have been greatly improv
ed. There is a right way and wrong
way to reduce a grade on a road, and
generally the laymen goes at it the
the top of the grade and depositing it
at the bottom. This methods shortens
the hill but does not lower the grade
The correct way is to have an engineer
survey the grade and make the proper
marks to work from and cut from al
most the entire length of the hill. No
more dirt has to be moved and when the
Job Is finished the grade is lowered. A
change of location in the road may many
times be employed to get rid of bad
grade.
"a good road cannot be built without
the proper drainage, and there are two
styles to be used, the surface and sub
surface drainage. Surface drainage is
looked after by browning the road sur
face, and the height of the crown de-
ponds largely on the grade and also on
the material with which the road is
surfaced.
ga proper crown for hard road sur
face is about one inch to the foot where
the grade is not too heavy. On d road
with soft surface the crown must be
increased, as is also the fact on a road
where the grade is heavy In both of
these cases a crown of about two or
two and one-half inches to the foot is
proper.
Cutters are usually made too deep
in this State and they tend to allow the
frost and water to work under the road
bed, doing great deal of damage. |
recommend the use of broad, shallow
cutters which. if properly constructed,
will carry off the water that accumu-
lates. In making the culverts which
are necessary do not recommend the
use OF plank or tile pipes. Iron pipes
are the best and at either end of cul-
vert made of iron there should be ma
sorry wall. The iron culvert should be
given a good pitch so that the water
will not stand in it and freeze. Stone
or concrete should be used for culyerts
over II inches wide.
"On clay roads system of sub-drain-
age has to be provided for. Cobble stone
sub-drainage is the most satisfactory
The best sub-drain is - feet wide, "a
inches deep at the center and 10 inches
at the shoulder, filled with cobble stones
Clay should not be put next to the stone
but gravel covering should be put on
before the clay.
GAS to surfacing road The material
should be a fairly good grade of gravel,
but here in Maine we have to depend
on the material at hand. Before the
surface is put on the foundation should
have the same general form as the finish.
ed road. On road of sand construction
it is possible to get an excellent surface
with clay as long as the clay is covered
once or twice each year with coating
of sand.
''The right time to do work on the
roads is in the months of May and June
and money expended at this time OF
year will go much farther than in the
fall"
