TERRIBLE ACCIDENT
AT TECOLOTE MINES

Las Vegas, Sept. 5. Though
suffering untold agonies and with his
life being slowly eaten away by sui
phuric acid, a native laborer at the
Tecolote Consolidated Copper COM
panys mines, suffered for nearly AS
hours before death relieved him last
night. Several physicians were sum-
moned to attend him at the little
mining camp sixteen miles southwest
of this city, but they could do nothing
to save his life. Unconscious most
of the time, he writhed in torment.
put when rational moments came, he
begged his comrades to end his life.
Fell Into Vat of Acid
The accident occurred shortly be-
fore 10 o'clock Tuesday morning.
The laborer while working round a
large vat filled with sulphuric acid,
slipped and fell head first into the
burning fluid. His frantic screams at
tracted the attention of fellow en-
ployes, who at once ran to his assist
ance and pulled him out Of the tank,
but not until the flesh was eaten from
his bones in many parts OF his body.
His eyes were entirely gone, and
nothing but death could relieve the
miserable man.
As soon as he was rescued from
the acid vat a physician was sum-
moned from Las Vegas. In the mean
time everything possible was done to
alleviate his sufferings.
By the time the physician reached
the scene Of the accident the acid
had burned the man so badly that
there was no hope for his recovery.
II is said that while In the acid vat
he native swallowed some Of the poi
son, and as a result his stomach is
eaten away.

LAID DOWN TO REST
BENEATH CARS SHADE

Globe. Ariz.. Sept. 5.-One of the
most peculiar accidents that ever
occurred in this vicinity resulted in
the death of Archie b. Milhollon and
the probable fatal wounding of
Clarence Neff in the Old Dominion
yards in this citv shortly before /
o'clock TODAY. Milhollon's head was
ground off. and should Neff recover,
his left limb must be amputated near
the knee.
Milhollon was a single man, about
2s years of age. and Neff is a boy Of

for some time.
Head Ground on.
Milhollon and the boy were work.

standing on a siding above the scale
house, to partake of their lunch. Az
ter eating both laid down on the
tracks under the car TO take a sleep.
MilhollOn rested his head on one of
the rails. The bows feet passed the
rail on the opposite side. While in
these positions the car under which
they We're resting was struck by a

From Times Democrat.

Nashville Tenn, April lo-The
Tennessee Legislature got down to
business to day, after the third
special message from Gov. Patter-
son proddlng it into work, and dis
posed of many OF the accumulated
bills on the docket. The business
interests OF the State moved
through the commercial organiza
tions against the antitrust bull,
which was up for consideration
today, and the DILL was killed in
consequence. AT the afternoon
session the House passed bill ap-
propriating $l,ooo,ooo to the
country road system TO be paid in
two years guaranteeing the estab-
llshment of two grand public roads
across the state. just previous 10
the passage of the act the joint
committee had agreed upon the
measure and it is certain to pass
the Senate and get Governor Pat
tersons signature. The bill, how
ever, leaves out the special tax of
saloons for this purpose, which
was at first considered.
Both houses have practically
killed all other bills relating to
corporations, and everything IN the
way of telephone and railroad
is over to the satlsfac-
tion Of those corporations.

Perforated Sails.

Although the assertion recently
made by an Italian sea captain that
the power Of sails was increased bY
their being perforated was ridl-
culed, il has just been proved that
he was right. HIS 'heory was that
the force of the wind can not fairly
take effect on an inflated sail, be-
cause OF the cushion of lmmoyable
air that fills mp the hollow. To
prevent the creation OF that cushion
he pierced his sails with many holes,
through which the wind blew, the
balance of the air pressure striking
against the canvas and exercising
its full effect. Several experiments
have been made on these lines, aud
the results are declared to have
been emlnently satisfactory.

Uses OF SaWdust.

Many are the uses of sawdust.
In the days when the sawdust
wagon made It's numbering rounds
through the streets OF most large
cities two commercial uses of saw
dust were to sprinkle floors and 10
shelter lead pipes from cold, and
glass bottles from breakage.
Near every saw mill was vat for
the sawdust and it was carted away
free by any one who had any use
for it. In this era of the use of
by-products sawdust has a com.
mercial value. 1t is no longer
given away, but Is sold.
One Of the recent uses Of saw
dust is its distilliatlon, resulting
in acetic acid, wood naphtha, wood
alchohol and tar. Sawdust may
also be burned in special furnaces
or mixed with other material for
fuel.
Sawdust, when saturated with
chemicals, can be effectively used
in the manufacture of explosives,
but it IS more particularly in de-
mand in paper making than for any
other purpose. Snch thing al
sawdust on the floor OF a room al
substitute for a rug or carpet il
now practically unknown. Saw
dust has Joined sand in this par
tlcular.
Cotton felt has been substituted
for sawdust as a non-conductor o
cold in winter. Gas can be mad,
from sawdust. 1t ls also used fo
bliquettes, i. E., blocks of COM
pressed sawdust aud wood chips
burned for fuel. Even in the pro
lection Of glassware against break
age sawdust has been superseded
by excelsior. sawdust being re
garded as too valuable for sucl
purposes.

Cut Out the SIaVs

The following extract from an
editorial in the Crowley Signal
expresses our ideas. Speaking of
the intention of the Board of I'm
migration to migrate Huns, Bulga
rIaus and other Slavs, the Signal
says:
"There are 10 doubt good Huns,
just as there are good Indians.
Kossuth was q Hun-but he's
dead, There are lot of fine I'D
dlers who are Hurs, and every
little while we pay four dollars a
seat to hear some Hun with long
hair play the piano. But these are
exceptional Huns. The kind Schuler
will bring doesn't know tid-
die from a ham. He doesn',
know much of anything. He Is
mere brute. lie Is a living expon
ent of the Darwlnian theory. He
has no country, no home, no
churches, no schools. And be
wants none. He Is content to live
like an animal, and he seldom
develops intelligence enough to
participate in the most elementary
duties OF the crtizer. There are
thousands of him in the mines Of
Pennsylvania. So far as citizen
ship IS concerned, the monkeys of
Central Park are as we'll fitted.
Louisiana does not want this
kind of cattle. 1t has enough
now. We want the steady peas.

Scandinavian countries and the
British Isles. We want citizen

saving IN money. And that is ex.
actly what has been the experience
of those States which have good
roads.
This State is worse off than al
most any other Southern State.
Louisiana Is garden spot. In the
matter of climate and soil it IS
adapted to the profitable growing
of a greater variety of fruits and
agricultural products than almost
any other State IN the Union.
Good roads will develop these re.

State Health Conference.
From Monroe Star.

EIOIi WOHlOC
The Second Annual State Health
Conference, under the auspices OF
the Louisiana State Board of
Health will convene IN Opelousas
May 2, 8 and 4, and promises to
be very important convention OF
the leading health authorities OF
the Stale.
Besides a nulnber of interesting
and highly instructive papers TO be
presented by eminent physicians
and sanltarlans, much needed leg
islation, relative to public health
and sanitation will he discussed
and drafted for presentation to the
Legislature of 1908.
An active sanitary campaign IN
every parish in Louisiana will be
outlined and instituted at once,
and the parish and municipal health
officers organized into concrete
body for the crushing out of d.
sease and the general Improvement
of sanitary and hygienic conditions
throughout the State.
There is a great work to be done
on these lines in every parish and
town, and with the active co opera
tion of the officials and the people
this work can be doue with eff
cheney and dispatch.
1t has been suggested that the
various police iurles and mu-
nlcipal authorities defraY the ex-
pensea of duly authorized repre-
sentativee, to the end that all sec.
tions of the State be represented,
and that whatever action be taken
be participated IN by the whole
State.
The State Board of Health Is
making an earnest effort to improve
the sanitary and health conditions
Of the entire State, and from an ad-
vertlsing standpoint alone the
value cannot be overestimated.
Every day. 1t is said, the Office of
| the State Board Is beseiged with
inquiries as to the health and sani-
tary conditions and vital statistics
of the various parishes and towns
of the State, and with view OF
improving these several branches of
the service, which unfortunately
have been neglected in the past,
this conference is called, and the
active support of all Is solicited.
