HOLE IN HEART is sEwED UP
New York Man Survives Operation
and Attack of Pneumonia.

New York, Dec. 24.-After surviv-
ing an operation in which four stitches
were taken in his heart, William
Johnson developed pleural pneumonia
at Roosevelt hospital and is now again
convalescing. Johnson was taken to
the hospital suffering from an injury
which was at once diagnosed as a stab
wound of the heart.
An incision was made in his side,
three of Ills ribs were cut through,
forming a trapdoor with the cartilage
attaching the ribs to the breastbone
acting as hinge. The trap was low
cred and it was found that the diagno-
sis was correct and that there was a
half inch slit in the pericardium. This
was carefully sewed and the trap
door was replaced
The next morning Johnson COM
planned of pains in the lungs and pneu-
monia rapidly developed The doctors,
proud of the heart operation, fought
for the mans life and although at one
time death seemed certain, it is now
announced that Johnson is on the road
to recovery and will surely survive.

ANOTHER COAL NINE HORROR
Over $50 Miners Are Entombed and
There Is No Hope to Rescue
Tb&y1

Jacobs Creek, Pa, Dec. 21.-An ex-
plosion of gas in the Darr mine of
the Pittsburg Coal company, located
here, has entombed between 200 and
$50 miners, and there is scarcely a ray
of hope that single one Of them will
be taken from the mine alive. Par
TALLY wrecked buildings in the vicinity
of the mine and the few bodies found
early in the rescue work indicate an
explosion of such terrific force that it
seems impossible that any one could
have survived it. All of the l3 bodies
taken out up to this time are terribly
mutilated, and three of them are head
less.
This is the third mine disaster since
the first Of the month in the veins of
bituminous coal underlying western
Pennsylvania and West Virginia, for
the Naomi mine, near Fayette City,
and the two mines at Monongah, w.
Va, in which the earlier explosions
happened, are in the same belt as the
local workings. The last catastrophe
swells the number of victims of deadly
mine gas for the 10 days to between
$50 and 600

GOLD STRIKE MADE
NEAR RAILROAD PASS
Ore Carrying $500 to the Ton
Found On Ledge Neglected
For Years.
fSneciaI to ReYiewl

TOMBSTONE, Feb. 29.-Ulrich
Reider was in the city today from
Dos Cabezas. He brings the news
of a new gold strike that was made
in the locality of Railroad Pass last
week that has caused considerable
excitement in that part of the cou1s
try. While riding over the range
just back of the old Greene ranch,
one of the Waughtak boys and John
Spinks came across a ledge of white
and iron stained quartz that looked
promising to them. They returned
to the ranch house and securing Few
tools went back and did little
work on the ledge, taking out num-
Der of the samples. The samples
were brought to Reider's camp and
an assay made, and the returns show
that the quartz carries values In gold
Of between $500 and 5000 to the ton.
The ledge is about four feet wide
and can be traced for several hundred
yards and has been ridden over for
years by miners and cattlemen. Sam
pies of the ore were brought in by
Mr.. Reider and the quartz is barren
looking, containing good per cent
of iron.
Since the strike all of the surround
ing country has been located for a
number of miles around and num-
Der of men have begun work on their
prospects, some of them opening up
similar groupings to those Found in
the original discovery.
William Deckeraw, of this city and
man named Frank Sperry have
gone to the scene of the strike and
have taken bond and option on the
new strike for a good figure and as
soon as the papers have been signed
up will put force of men at work
on the claims.
The Dos Cabezas mountains have
for years been worked for gold and
in several places good values have
been found in its quartz lodges, while
for years the Mexicans have made
good wages in placer mining in the
various canyons and washes leading
down from the mountains.
