SCIENTIFIC INVESTIGATION IF CAUSES IF EXPLOSIONS
The Government Is to Make Experiments in Effort to Arrive at Some Definite Conclusions as to the Cause of Fearful Disasters That Occur in Coal Mines of
 the United States.

nearer to fire ianp than any other.
 The cylinder in which the ex- plosions are to occur is to be made of heavy boiler plate. Safety valves will be placed all along the top and will be left unfastened in such a manner that whenever there is an explosion the valves will fly open upon their hinges. A series of port holes on the sides, covered with one-half inch glass, will enable those con .ducting the experiments to witness the explosions from the observation house. sixty feet away. The steel mortar which will hurl the explosives into the cylinder will be fired by electricity from the Observation house which is parallel with the sylin- der itself.
 While these tests are being conduct ed. operators and miners will be in- vited to be present. In order that they will be able to see clearly tha explosions of gas or dust. a piece of oil paper will be placed across the face of one of the safety valves with a piece of gun cotton suspended about six inches away When an explosion occurs, the flames will burn the oil paper and ignite the gun cotton.
 In connection with the experiment. al station there will be a miniature mine with drifts, headings. rooms and ladders. This place will be fill eG with smoke or gas and expert ments will be made with apparatus capable of sustaining life in these va DOTS Miners will be taught how to T, their comrades who may be uncon, scious in the mine following an eX- plosion. 1t is believed that with some such apparatus in use last December when 500 men were killed in four mine explosions, a number of the vic tins of these disasters might have been saved had they been reached in time. As it is now, following an eX- plosiOn, with the mine filled with poisonous vapors, no one will venture in the mine for some time after the accident. A sad illustration of this is seen in the explosion at Hanna. Wy oming, March 2S, in which 70 miners were killed. No one has yet entered the mine. the bodies being still there.
 The investigations will be con ducted by trained mining engineer experienced in such work. The sta tiOn itself will be in charge of Car ence Hall, the governments explos- i've expert, with Dr. Walter O. She'll ing as explosives chemist
 The results of the investigations will be published for the benefit of the mine bureaus of the various coal producing states. the mine owners and the miners themselves. Simple in- structions will be issued from time to time to the miners in half a dozen different languages. There is no in tCntiOn of interfering in any way with the inspection work of the state bureaus. The work is wholly inves- tigative in character, and educational in purpose. It is the purpose of the United States officials. to cooperate with these bureaus to the extent of supplying information concerning the mysteries of the catastrophes in the mines. It is expected that the re suits will be accepted by the state

Preparations to Be Made in Few Days for Hanging of Negro Convicted of Murder ing His Wife.

TUCSON, July 4.--Unless Governor Kibbey interyenes within the next three days preparations will be com menced for. the hanging of William Groce. the negro who shot and killed his wife in the vicinity of the South .ern Pacific depot about year ago, land was sentenced to pay the death penalty by jury at the last term of court, The date set for the hanging lis July IT, between the hours of II and 2 o'clock
 The case Of Groce was brought to the attention of Governor Kibby about two weeks ago by his attor- ney. A. A. Worsley. but since that time there has not been the slightest intimation of what the chief exeeu- tiye's intention in the matter is. Yesterday afternoon it was stated at the sheriffs office that as thee were cnly about two weeks left and it was necessary to comply with certain stat utory regulations it would be neces- sary to commence preparing for the execution unless something is heard shortly from the governor.

UNEARTHED BONES
 OF AZTEC CHILD
Will and RoIhe DrOtaugh Dis cover Remains of Child
 Aged 10 Years,

PHOENIX, July 4.-Will and l,ol- rio Drobaugh, while digging post Ccles on their fathers ranch north east Of town. unearthed the boEes Of a child Eiici had probably ar riVsd at the age Of ten 1- twelve years before its death. While the skeleton was not found in the imme- diate vicinity Of the Aztec ruins Vhich are rather numerous to the east Of Mesa. yet it is naturally sup posed that the bones belong to some prehistoric race. The first discovery of the skeleton was made few inches under the ground. The boys kept digging until they had gone down eieghteen or twenty inches and secured nearly all the bones which belong to the human body.
 The skeleton was in a very good condition and it seems impossible that it could have belonged to race which inhabited the Salt River valley before the advent of the Indians yet it cannot be accounted for iI any CtlGr way.
 A few years ago representatives from the Smithsonian institute came here and investigated a number of the Aztec ruins and found several i'm clements of warfare as well 2s pot tery and earthenware and human re- mains which they took with them. There is considerable interest at tached to the old ruins and very of ten exploring parties are made up for the purpose of investigating.
 Dr. DrObaugh is of the opinion that she bones found on his ranch belong to the prehistoric people yet he can account for it in only one way and that is that there was at some time a ruin on his ranch which has been torn down and the ground leveled above it.

AoRNN-1A DO i4l< ANSAitN-t
 WASHINGTON, D. C., July 1.-The thlted States government, within the next few weeks, will begin a series or scientific Investigations into the a causes Of disasters in American coal ; mines in the hope that the present frighJful mortality may be reduced to minimum By August l, in accord ance with plans approved by Secre- tary of the Interior Garfield the inte- rior department will have a complete eXperimentals station in operation on the grounds of the Arsenal in Pitts burg, Pa
 For some time before the Hemen- way amendment to the legislative ap- propriation bill, making an appropria- tion of $150,00O for this work, be- came a law and the money available, government officials were busy mak- ing tentative plans dor the station ire order that there might be no delay. This advanced the project to such an extent that the material for the sta ton will be on the ground by July l lst. and it is expected the station wv De in operation a month later,
 This prompt action was considered necessary because of the fact that the terrible mortality record of last year is being continued into this year. although 1907 was considered an un- usual one, 3,200 being killed in the coal mines as against 2,061 the year before. From unofficial estimates it appears that sixteen men have been killed or injured each work day of the year. Just the other week, twenty-three miners were killed and thirty injured in and about Wilkes Barre, Pa.
 At the PiJtsburg experimental sta ton. tests of the various dynamites and powders used in blasting codi will be made with a view to accurate ly determining their safety in th~ presence of the deadly fire damp and equally deadly coal dust. Explosives of all sorts will be hurled by means of a mortar into a, mammoth boiler plate cylinder which has previously been filled with gas, and the effects will be carefully noted. If ignition fails after severe tests, the use of these explosives will be urged upon the mine owners of the country.
 That part of the experimental sta ton in which the explosives are to be tested will be in the form of cylinder, 100 feet long and six feet in diameter, lying on the ground An explosive mixture of fire damp and air in one case or coal dust and air in another will be pumped into the, cylinder and the explosive to be test ed will be shot into it from one end by a big steer mortar so that the flames and products of combustion will go right into the explosives.
 Pittsburg was selected as the ste for the station because the govern ment is already in possession of avail able land and buildings there, but this site is especially favorable because it is in the heart of the eastern coal fields. and in the state where 15l4 m2n lost their lives in the coal mines in 1907 (nearly half the total for the entire United State s). It is also au advantage to have natural gas easily obtainable, as this gas corresponds

 That boy who can stand the grind will commence 10 loom up like red tail comet out for lark.
 While the White Sox nave been fore cd to their best work the tigers have gone along quietly. but holding their own, a well managed bah team with hitting ability, and hitting must count in the long run. So the tigers chances look just as good as at any time since the season opened. believe the Detroit players will stand the wear and tear of third season and come strong at the finish, while the white sox will as usual de depend too much on their pitchers. Cleveland is tender with Turner and Flick out of the game, two of the greatest all-round players the game ever produced, men who let the um- pires absolutely alone and play the grandest kind of baseball
 The New York highlandars and Phil adelphia Athletics will come strongly again on the home grounds. but never strongly enough to land the first mon ey this season, as one of the western clubs will have the honor for the third time in succession.
 The Boston red soX have shown some wonderful possibilities in the last three weeks. and, with two or three more clever youngsters will be in a position to draw cards sand play for. the big stakes. No man living Is more willing to give a bia price for the best players than John l. Taylor. He is a genuine fan, and would rather win than count the gate receipts. Years ago in this city the club owners would first inquire the attendance figures and then ask for the score of the game It's different with John Taylor, as he is constantly looking for victories and, naturally being willing to pay the price for the best men com ing to the front will yet have a real ball team.
 Three new men on the team this season cost the club no less than S22.- 900. Thoney, GsSsler and Mcconnell were the players. It was big money for three minor league men. two of whom had been tried out in fast com pany and sent back. All are making good and were worth the money.
 For years the only section of the country where there was any doubt about the honesty of the game is the sunny south. It's an easy matter for Ia, disgruntled ball player to accuse a manager of doing some wrong to help teams win Championships. but up to date no verified proof has been shown, and until something more than a ball players word is all that we have for the facts the game Will re- ceive no setback
 It will be a great day for the game when managers and owners of clubs meet as true sportsmen, cutting out all attempts to get a shade the best of 1t. When officers and umpires are allowed to go about their business with the knowledge that their efforts for fair deal can be appreciated. don't look for any such conditions in baseball during my life. for less than 20 per cent of the individuals financial ly interested in the sport are even more selfish than the hot-headed play CT.
 The sport can stand considerable Feforming.
