earnestness and ability of the necessity
for raising the standard of efficiency

perative to make the schools such that
children and teachers should be proud
to belong to them. AS a remedy for
the existing conditions it was proposed
to start Sunday-schooL guilds, which
should inaugurate meetings OF teach
ers, engage the services Of experienced
teachers to give an occasional talk or
demonstration and arrange reading
courses.

pointed by the president:

TWENTY KILLED BY
MINE EXPLOSION

TRINIDAD, Colo, Jan. 23.-Twenty
miners, according to the authentic in
formation available this evening, lost
their lives as a result of an explosion
which occurred at o'clock this morn
ing in the Colorado Fuel and Iron Com
pany's mine near Primero, twenty miles
west of this city. Twenty collins have
been ordered by the company from a
local undertaking 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 missing. All the men ex-
cept 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 O'Neill is di-
recting personally the work of res
cue. Volunteers from adjacent mines
are assisting. The rescuers have
been divided into two-hour shifts and
work Will be kept up continuously I'M
til the mine is explored.
During the entire day excitement ran
high and relatives of the entombed
miners stood waiting at the entrance
to the mine for a sight of any of tie
victims that might be brought 20 the
surface.
- John KebIer, general manager of the
Colorado Irsn and Fnel Company, ar
rived from Denver tonight and left i'm
mediately in special train for PIi-
nero. Late advices are that the mine
is badly wrecked. The rescue party
has penetrated 900 feet and recovered
four bodies, the names not being given.

NAVAL SERVICE IS :
SHORT OF COAL

VALLEJO, Jan. 23.-The naval SER
vice is beginning to feel the coal short
age that has the entire West in it's
grip. The collier Saturn, which car
ries fuel for the Pacific squadron and
which came here Monday evening for
supplies. will likely go north to the
Puget Sound navy yard to I'LL her
hold, as the local authorities are afraid
that shortage may result if they give
her all she wants.
The navy supplies its officers ashore
with coal at $3.50 a ton and delivers
1t to their doors, no matter where they
live. For instance, the big naval col
ony that now makes its home in Berke-
ley is receiving the very best coal on
the market at that low rate and the
Government is paying the difference
between this low figure and the mar
ket price.
