New York's Wagon Trafhc.l

Over 100000 tons of agricultural
products are carried over the ordinary
wagon roads in the State of New York
each year, and this is not taking into
consideration the delivery of quarry
and forest products, or merchandise,
fertilizer, etc., carried away from the
marketing points back to the farm.
1t seems safe to say that at least 49,
100000 tons are carried over the wagon
roads of New York State every year.
Therefore, if the roads of the State
Of New York were improved until they
were equal to those of European coun-
tries there would be a saving Of over
S30,000,000 each year to the people Of
the State of New York, in accordance
with the best estimate made by the
Department of Road Inquiries Of the
United States Department Of Agricul-
ture.-Frank D. Lyon, in the Auto ADJ
vOcate.

FORTY-TWO DEAD TAKEN OUT
NINETEEN OTHER BODIES ARE
STILL IN YoLANDE MINE.
Hot Air and Smoke Overcome the Res
ouers-Dynamite May Have
Caused Disaster.

Yolande, Ala, Dec. 18.-At eight
o'clock Tuesday night AZ bodies had
been taken from the ill-fated Yolande
mines, in which an explosion occurred
Monday. Nineteen more are reported
in the mines, making a total of 81
victims. .7.
All day long the rescue parties toiled
in the mines here against fearful odds.
The hot air and smoke from the ex-
plosion made it difficult to get into the
lower entries and several of the res
cue party have been overcome at diff
ferent times and have had to be
brought to the surfce for fresh air.
No one is yet able to tell what
caused the explosion. The theory most
generally accepted now is that one of
the men allowed stick of dynamite
to explode, which stirred up the dust
ana this in turn exploded, spreading
death and destruction through the
whole mine. This theory is borne out
by the fact that the entire front of
one mans body was torn away.
. - Inc pumps were ulodDlCu .uy lhS
explosion and the rescuers are max.
ing great efforts to get the bodies out
OF the lower steps before the water
rises over them The damage to the
mine itself is not as great as first
thought. In fact, officials of the com.
pany stated Tuesday night that work
could be resumed within four or five
days If the bodies are all cat.
Twenty-six men who were in the
mine at the time of the explosion
made their escape. Among these was
Sieve Stofko. He was far down the
slope in the fourth entry when the
explosion occurred in the sixth right.
Six other men were with him, and all
except Stofko made dash for the
air PASSAGE Stofko instead made for
the main entry and when he saw the
light of day in the distance, drank the
last of his coffee. took chew of to-
bacco and walked out calmly with his
face wreathed in smiles.

AFFINITY GOES BACK.
MRS. GRAY, OF STATE NORMAL,
RETURNS TO SPOUSE.
Each Forgave Other and Promised To
Be Good-Mrs. Gray's Adventure
With Professor Todd
Has Sequel. - =.

Mason City, Ia, Dec. 1S.-A truce
has been declared between Mrs. Gray,
the woman whose name was linked
with that of Prof. Thomas Todd in the
recent scandal that stirred the state
normal school at Cedar Falls, and her
husband, Engineer Gray of the Mil
waukee road. Mr.. and Mrs. Gray were
in the city together this week, and
route to their home in st. Paul, where
it is understood they will begin house
keeping again after a separation of
more than year, caused, it is alleged,
by conduct unbecoming husband up
on the part of Gray.
Engineer Gray learned of his wife's
trouble only recently and came imme-
diately to Usage, Ia, where she stop
ped after leaving Cedar Falls. The
meeting was said at first to have been
a stormy one, but as they talked over
matters in view of recent happenings,
each became Modified and more in
clined to be forgiving. 1t was agreed
that they return to Lyle. Mimi, the
home of both brother and a sister
of the couple, and through the efforts
of relatives there peace was patched
up. 800
Engineer Gray has brother who is
in charge of the Milwaukee station at
Lyle, whose wife is a sister of Mrs.
Gray. Another brother of Gray is the
Milwaukee agent at Milford. Friends
say both have led checkered mari
tai life, but that it is more than prob
able that the. present peace will be
lasting. Mr.. and Mrs. Gray returned
to st. Paul today.

with flaming zeal for righteousness
which made him the leader in matters

found here. At the public library
there was an exhibition OF many Of
Whittier's poems in manuscript, while
rare collections of his books and first
edition copies of many of his writings
were placed on view.
The house in East Haverhill in
which the poet was born was the
