TO one O'Clock his afternoon any at

of the violence of the explosion that
rent the interior of the mine and the
presence of the fire there is not much
chance for h men inside.
Within a few minutes after the ex-
plosion the mouth of the pit was sur
rounded by relatives and friends of
the entombed men. The Genes were
pitiful. The smoke and flames issu-
ing from the mouth of the mine made
it impossible to enter, and the wives
and children were frantic. Every eff
fort is being made to subdue the. fire,
but no Roadway has been made. The
superintendent of the mine is one OF
the men imprisoned. He went into
the mine to investigate its condition
and was caught in the explosion.
Pittsburg, Pa, Dec. 19.-At two
O'Clock this afternoon no details had
been received at the company's of
fees in this city and the exact num-
Der of men in the Barr mine at the
time of the explosion is unknown. 1t
Is said that the shifts are not larger

mine as one of the safest owned by
them, and express the belief that the
explosion did not reach all the work
lngs, in which event many are still
alive and probably can be saved.

81 ACKL|STED EMPL0YE
IS BUCK|NC THE TRUST

II. A. Yerkes. the laundryman
who started out to buck the local
trust. knows something of what he
is up against, as he used to work
for wages in a laundry in this city.
Because he supported the laundry
workers in move for better wages
he was discharged and blacklisted
so effectively that he had to leave
town. Over in Butte he secured
some backing and came back to
Spokane. He had some designs on
the trust at that time but finding
it impossible 10 get machinery 9th
erwise, he joined the association
and put up his $500 forfeit for good
behavior, as all members were re-
CURED to do.
When Yerkes got his plant to
operating and business established
he abandoned the trust and has
unionized his shop. The trust is
ahead to the extent of $500 forfeit
but Yerkes figures that he will
make it back, and the indications
are that he will.
AS a result of the announcement
yesterday extra teams had TO be put
on to handle increased business.

HEALTH OFFICE
IS DIRTY

The Scriptural injunction about
the mote in the other fellows eye
and the beam in your own seems
aptly applied to the city health de-
partment. The health offices are in
a dirty, unwholesome condition.
There's a colored boy employed
about the place as porter. The boy
is not lazy, but he simply don t
have to work. Sam is political
Office holder in a small way. and
takes things easy. He goes to the
Jail and gels white prisoners to do
his work for him. The jailbirds
are all harmless Migrants who well
come the opportunity of doing a lit
tie working around the city hall
in preference to making little rocks
out of big ones on the city rock
pile. But they don't like to see ser
vice under Sam
However. neither sam nor the
prisoners have ever even SHE'D a
scrubbing brush at the health office,
nor taken a pail OF water near It,
The windows are in such dirty
condition that they must be opened
to see outdoors. The floors have
not been scrubbed for possibly sew
eral months; carpet in the main
Office has not been moved for so
long there is no telling what dis
ease germs have colonized it. The
woodwork is thick with dust. In
one corner Of this room cuspidor
sets on the bare floor with eXpec-
torations all around It, Underneath
the desks dirt has collected for
months and on occasions when
some one inadvertently moves a
desk a cloud of dust arises and set
ties around the room. There is a
foul smell about the place that in
dicates the urgent need of some dis
infectant or other.
