LOSS OF LIFE AND PROPERTY
Heavy Rains Cause Rivers to
Leave Banks---Traffic
Interrupted.

Atlanta, Ga, Aug. 26-AppaNntly
the heavy rains of yesterday and last
night, which washed away many
bridges in South Carolina, causing
some loss of life and great damage
to crops, have ceased today. Reports
received from Spartansburg, Camden
and other places in that state where
the situation seemed the most serious
last night, show that all danger OF
further trouble has passed.
Practically every telegraph and tele-
phone wire in the Camden section OF
South Carolina was destroyed by the
severe wind storm which accompanied
the rain. Railroad traffic Is badly de-
moralized. The rain was the heaviest
in many years throughout South Car.
olina and Georgia. The total damage
is estimated at half a million dollars.
Reports from Augusta at Las
O'Clock this afternoon are that the
city is entirely flooded. Broad street,
the principal thoroughfare, is four feet
under water and the merchants and
occupants Of residences are making
desperate efforts to remove their
goods to the upper stories. Tele.
phone and telegraph communication Is
interrupted.

MINE HOLOCAUST
IN OKLAHOMA
Fifty Entombed by
Explosion at
Haileyville
FIRE ADDS TO HORROR
Accidental Ignition of Barrel
of Oil Cause of Fearful
Disaster

McAlester, Okla, Aug. 2G.--One OF
the worst mine disasters in the his
tory of this part of the Southwest and
the worst in the history of the new
state, occurred today at Haileyville, a
coal mining town fifteen miles east of
here, when between twenty-five and
fifty miners were entombed in HALEY
Ola Coal Mine No. !, as the result Of
an explosion, followed by fierce fire
which cut off all escape for the men
working in the lower levels of the
mine
The holocaust as near as can be
learned was caused by the accidental
ignition of barrel of oil which
caught fire from miners lamp, a few
minutes after $50 o'clock, soon af-
ter the day shift had entered the
mine. An explosion followed immedi-
ately, spreading the burning oil in all
directions.
There were about 200 men in the
mine at the time. Those near the main
shaft managed to escape, many being
seriously burned. However, the fire
spread with such rapidity that the
miners working in the lower tiers were
unable to reach the shafts and in a
short time all escape was cut off.
At noon telephone message from
Haileyville stated that the fire was
burning so fiercely that it was i'm
possible for the rescuers to enter the
mine and 1t was believed at that hour
that all the men entombed would per-
ish if death by suffocation had not
already overcome them. 1t also look
ed as if the mine itself would be
entirely destroyed before the pumps
could pour enough water in the en-
tries to flood them.
All the victims are foreigners and
the scene about the burning mine is
pitiful one. Women and children are
gathered there bemoaning the fate
that has overcome fathers, husbands
and brothers and many are restrained
with difficulty from throwing them
selvels into the seething furnace
Officials of the company here de-
clare that the number of missing min
ers is not definitely known and they
fear that the death list may even ex
ceed fifty.

FAILED FIRMS AFFAIRS

Work Of Clearing Up Business Of A.

New York Aug. 26.-The work OF
clearing up the tangled affairs Of the
Stock Exchange firm Of A. O. Brown
and company, whose suspesion yes
terday was announced, after one of the
most extraordinary bursts Of specula-
tion ever known on the New York Elk

ed that the appointment of a special
investigating committee of five mem
bers OF the board of governors Of the
Stock Exchange, to inquire into the
remarkable transactions on the floor
Of the Exchange Saturday last, will
be announced today. So involved are
the affairs Of the firm that 1t is expect
cd that it will be several days before
an estimate Of its liabilities and as-
sets can be made. The failure had
much less effect on the market than
might have been anticipated In view
ot the magnitude of the firms transac-
lions. There was however, . feeling

Roswell, N. NJ, Aug. 26.-It will not
be many days now until the wheels
of the academic and military depart
ments of the New Mexico Military In
stitute will again be set in motion.
New cadets are to report for duty
September 1st and the eleventh ses-
sion begins in earnest September Sd.
Quarters have been arranged for and
the school will open with a full batta
lion.
Many Improvements Made.
The summer months have not been
spent in rest and idleness at the in
stitute. The whole time has been
utilized in improving the property, in
laying new plans for the coming ses-
sion, and, in every way, arranging
to improve the school, and in making
it the greatest military institute of the
West, the foundation of which has al
ready been firmly established There
is always work to be done at the
institute and energy is not spared In
getting ready to make conditions bet
ter. The authorities have been busy
all summer and it is this untiring te-
nacity Of" keeping things moving to
which the New Mexico Military Insti-
tute. owes, to a great extent, the en-
viable position which it now occupies
among the educational institutions
of the Southwest. No sooner had the
last cadet left at the close OF the tenth
session for his summer vacation than
work was at once begun to make prep.
arations for opening the next session.
Not before the cadets had left, how
ever, because it has always been the
policy of the institute authorities to
devote their entire time and energy
during the school year to the interest
of the cadets. The cadets get their
undivided attention while at the
school and the boys appreciate this
fact. But just as soon as cadets leave
every effort Is turned to making i'm
provements. The cadets appreciate
the interest that the regents and fac
ulty take in their welfare during
the session and the great effort to

LONE STAGE RoBBER MADE
HAUL ESTIMATED At $4,000

Livingston, Mont, Aug, 26.-The
total loss of the passengers in the
sixteen coaches held up Monday in
Yellowstone Park by lone highway
man is now estimated at $4,000 in
money and an equal value in watches
and jewelry. The robber has not been
apprehended, although Major Allen
and a detachment of soldiers and
scouts have been out on the trail two
days. The chances for his escape are
good as the point where the hold-up
occurred is near the Jackson's Hole
country, famous as a refuge for Grim
inals and is reached from that part
of the park by several different routes.

Growth Has Been Wonderful.
Even to the casual observer the sue
cess and growth of the New Mexico
Military Institute has been wonderful.
In few years it has attained lead
ing place among the leading education
al institutions of the Southwest and its
attendance from sixty the first ses-
sion has increased to $50 the last ses-
sion. Ten years ago an imperfect
road led to the Military Heights, so
called because on barren mesa loom
ed lonely and uncheerful the brick
building of the New Mexico Military
Institute. But from the very begin
ming and notwithstanding the difficult
ties which are generally encountered
in similar propositions, efforts were
bent and the Institute has made prog
ress indeed. On the forty-acre tract
nine substantial buildings can now be
seen and they have been built from
year to year mostly out OF the saw
ings of the schools earnings; and
trees are growing and flowers are
blooming on the original barren mesa.
The New Mexico Military Institute
has kept pace with the growth of Ros-
we'll and Roswell has kept pace with
the growth of the New Mexico Mill
tary Institute. Results undoubtedly
count-New Mexico feels proud of her
School of Arms, and justly.
Summer Improvements.
Besides the usual painting and re-
pairing, which is done every summer
to the amount of some $4,000 or
81 900, a number of substantial i'm
provements have been made at the
New Mexico Military Institute during
the last three months. Chiefly among
these is an addition to the mess hall.
This addition enlarges the kitchen,
pantries and bakeshop by about 1,20O
square feet Of floor space 1t affords
an excellent room for the washing of
dishes and glasses and makes the
sanitary conditions much better. Con-
siderable new machinery has been in
stalled, such as improved dish wash
ers, bread cutting machines, etc. This
