RESCUE HELPLESS.
Driven Back by Flames From En-
tOmbed Miners.

According to dispatch from Lon
don a message from Wigin says that
after recovering the bodies of 20
miners, victims of the terrific ex-
plosion in the Wigin mine Tuesday
night the 'rescuers were driven back
by flames early Wednesday morning.
All hope of rescuing any of the 65
men, still remaining alive, has been
abandoned, but the officials Of the
mine are making desperate efforts
to quench the flames.
Seven of the rescue party were
brought to the surface unconscious.
The scene aroun dthe mouth Of the
pit is pathetic in the extreme. Half
crazed mothers and wives maintained
all-night vigil, hoping against hope
that their loved ones would come to
the surface alive, but when daylight
came only four Of the so men who
went to work Tuesday morning had
been rescued alive and they were all
unconscious, but will recover.
The bodies of the 20 dead are so
horribly burned that they cannot be
identified. 1t Is realized that after
the flames are drowned out it will
be many hours before party can
be again sent into the mine owing to
the gases. The only cause assigned
for the explosion SO far, is that a
naked lamp came in contact with a
pocket of gas in one of the workings.

EARTH la"CAdFoRNIA.
Walls Cracked and Crpckery Broken
by Two Shocks.

Three sharp earthquake shocks,
which knocked down more than a
hundred chimneys, shattered about
forty plate glass windows in the
business portion Of Eureka, CAL,
broke much crockery in the houses
and sent many people scurrying from
their beds into the streets, occurred
there early Tuesday. The damage
reported SO far is estimated at be-
tween $4,000 and $4,000.
The first and sharpest shock came
at 2:5S a. m. 1t was almost as Sc
we're as the one felt there on April
IS, 1905. At 3.O6 another slighter
shock was srienced, followed by
third at ;E3O o'clock.
The first shock caused practically
all the damage. Besides shaking
down many chimneys and breaking
crockery, the trembler caused the
sixteen-foot statue of Minerva, on

ANOTHER MURDER MYSTERY.
Body of Unknown Man Found in a
Trunk Near Camden, N. j.


After a day of careful Investigation
the authorities have concluded that
there is small possibility of solving
the mystery surrounding the identity
and death of the man whose body was
found in an old trunk in ravine
near Mount Ephran, near Camden,
n. j., Sunday.
1t was at first reported that the
coroner had found that death was
caused by a bullet wound in the
breast, but a careful examination Of
the body made by DR.. w. G. Jones,
failed to show any cause of death. 1t
was found that no bones were broken
and the man had not been shot, and
apparently he had not been strangled.
The most important thing discovered
by the authorities was note or
memorandum in one of the trous-
lepiSpackets of the unknown. This
isSbeing carefully dried and an effort
will be made to read it under mag
nifying glass.
