her trouble to be serious until
last Tuesday, when she was begin
ming to feel worse than usual and
her father brought her to the doc
tor. She was sick in bed only from
Tuesday afternoon till two o'clock

Mine Disaster.

Yolande, Ala, Dec. 16. Not since
terrible disaster at the Virginia mines
eight miles north Of here, has there
occurred such a death-dealing catas-
trophe as the explosion which took
place in Mine No. l Of the Yolande
Coal and Coke Company at 1925
o'clock this morning. 1t is impossi-
BILE to tell at this hour how many are
dead as result of the explosion, the
estimates varying all the way from
forty to sixty.
The work of rescue has been ex-
tremely slow because of the debris
in the mines and the large crowds OF
women, children and sightseers at
the opening. The explosion is now
known to have occurred either in the
fifth or sixth right entries. All of the
bodies have been recovered from these
entries, and some of them were sc
horribly mutilated that Identification
is next to impossible. The list O.
dead, recovered and identified at II
O'Clock was as follows:
White Robert Arnold, general mint
foreman; viii Tow, Tom Newell, A
B. Gurdley,. Sam Wright, Charlie.

Yolande, Ala, Dec. 17-At8 o'clock
tonight fortY-two blackened and
mangled bodies had been taken from
the ill-fated Yolande Mine, in which
the disastrous explosion occurred
yesterday. Nineteen more bodies are
in the mines, making a total of sixty
one victims of the catastrophe and
marking Yolande as the second largest
mine disaster in the history of the
Alabama mineral fields. The Virginia
mines disaster, eight miles north of
Yolande, which occurred on Feb. 20,
1895, holds the record, the list of dead
there totaling liz.
All day long the rescue parties have
toiled in the mine here against fearful
odds. The hot air and smoke from the
explosion have made it difficult to get
into the lower entries, and several
OF the rescue party have been over
come at different times and have had
to be brought to the surface for fresh
air.
No one is yet able to tell what
St. Tammany farmer., 1907-12-21

caused the explosion. The theory most
generally accep Jed now is that one of
the men carele&sly allowed stick of
dynamite to explode, which stirred up
the dust, and this in turn exploded,
spreading death and destruction
through the whole mine. This theory
is borne out by the fact that the en-
tire front of one mans body was torn
away. His backbone remained and
one leg was practically torn off. Men
at the mine contend that this man
was probably holding stick of dyna-
mite when it went off.

GUARD MOUNT.
By John Finley.

BY John Finley.
The night has come, and forth I fare
To post the sentries of my prayer,
Their silent watch to keep where'er
My waking thoughts would be.
Two more shall stand beside their door
Who gave me birth, and two before
Her hut who lights an alien shore
With her loves ministry;
And two shall nightly vigil keep
To bring US word who nightly weep
If they do wake from their long sleep
Beneath the linden tree;
To every door two more shall go
Where trouble threats, or lurking foe
Waits but the deepening dark to throw
His dart of misery;
And one in silent round I send
From prayer to prayer, his aid to lend,
If there be special need to fend
Against the enemy.
Forth to your posts, my sentinels,
Till matin prayers reveille bells
Give you relief, and daylight tells
Where evil shadows flee.

A nervous man on his lonely home
ward way heard the echoing of foot
steps behind him, and dim visions OF
hold-up men and garroters coursed
through his brain. The faster he walk
ed the more the man behind increased
his speed, and although the nervous one
took the most roundabout and devious
course he could devise, still his tracker
followed. At last he turned into a
churchyard. IF he follows me here
he decided, there can be NO doubt
about his intentions" The man behind
did follow, and quivering with heat
and rage, the nervous one turned and
confronted him. what do you want ?"
he demanded. why are you following
me?'' DO you always go home like
this" asked the stranger, cor are you
giving yourself treat tonight? 1 am
going up to Mr.. Browns. and the por-
ter at the station told me to follow
you, as you lived next door. Excuse
my asking, but are you going home at
all tonight?'

When the exile's death has claimed

To the pleasant English country, when
nv time has come to die;
Where the west wind on the uplands
echoes back the sea-bird's cry

though it's here my bones must lie.

But a fairer music in my heart 1

and cease and pass me by
Oh! it's there I fain would wander, but

Shadows
After Reading Emerson.

Cry halt! When in the early morning
dawn
On golden Zephyr's wings glides soft
the hour.
Ne'er turn back thy gaze, though pur-
Pile mountains yawn-
There is thy Goal, where misty
demons howl.
Puffs of cloud
And gusts of wind,
Sparks. of ray
And silver tint,
All that's born unites in glee
Through divine Telharmonie.
Stop short! When Death turks deep
below,
And Sorrow crawls with anguish
down thy spine,
Storm pierces space, and midnight
showers blow
Eternal doom, thy fate and ven
geance mine.
Crack Of whip
And boom of foam,
SIush of slime
And fiery dome,
All that's dead decays in gore.
Harkt A ghost he stalks before.

THE REDEEMER.

Never in a costly palace did rest on
golden bed,
Never in a hermit's cavern have
eaten idle bread.
Born within lowly stable, where the
cattle round Me stood,
Trained a carpenter in Nazareth, have
toiled and found it good.
They who tread the path of labor fol-
low where My feet had trod;
They who work without complaining do
the holy will of God.
Where the many toll together, there am
1 among My own;
Where the tired workman sleepeth,
there am I with him alone.
I, the peace that passeth knowledge.
dwell amid the daily strife.
I, the bread Of heaven, am broken in
the sacrament of life.

ALL HE COULD THINK OF.

While. driving along country road
a man saw the roof a farmers house
ablaze. He gesticulated and called tC
the farmers wife, who was calmly
standing in the doorway:
Hey, your house is afire."
"What?'' she bawled out.
II say your house is afire."
What did Y say? I'm a little deaf
Your house is afire," again yelled tbs
man at the top of his lungs.
"Oh, is that ALP calmly replied the
woman.
It's all can think of just now,
responded the man in a rather weak
voice as he drove on.

NEW YORK, Feb. 1S.-The deal
ings in today's stock market appeared
to be largely professional in their
origin. The movement was hesitating
and irregular in the efforts of the
professional traders to grope for an
effective leadership. The incident
that had the most to do with curbing
the demand which started early
prices upwards was the character of
these tradings in Amalmagated Cop
per and Anaconda and was SO decis-
i've as to indicate a determination to
put restraint on any upward move
ment of those stocks in the market.
Such demonstration was interpreted
as intended to herald the market at.
tltude OF an important financial fol.
lowing. The traders turned to the
short side Of the market or reduced
long commitments in response to this
supposed admonition. The market
also was confronted with the news
that the Bank of England had again
secured all of the arrivals of South
African gold in London, thus belvins
the confident expectation of last
week that the inward movement of
gold would begin this week.
