WAS IT INcENDIARY FIRE?
Flames in Red Lodge Coal Mine Be
heved Started From Pile of
LOGS.

Butte, Mont.-The origin of the fire
in the East Side mine of the North
western Improvement company at Red
Lodge is attributed to the work Of IN
cendiaries. When the flames were first
discovered they were observed issuing
from a pile of logs which, apparently,
had just been placed in the slope.
When Assistant Superintendent Hag
gerty became incapacitated last night
General Superintendent c. c. Anderson
jumped into "s5ip' and went to the
bottom of the mine, where the fire
was the thickest, and directed the
work of rescue. The men were found
in a pitiable condition, strewn along
the tracks, some with their faces down
and others crouched in the small
chambers and almost overcome by the
smoke and heat. 1t is due TO Superin-
tendent Anderson IS heroic efforts that
so many lives were saved.
The six men who were entombed ap-
parently became confused in their mad
dash for liberty and got beyond the
range Of the rescuers. They failed Ia
locate the shaft, through which more
than 100 miners made their escape.
When the flames first broke out there
must have been so or more persons in
stope No. 2, whose lives were saved by
reversing the air currents, thus driving

Walter gladly accompanied the conduc-

game, and laughing heartily at some ia
vorable turn.

The pickpocket turned pale.

said.

The boy, who had made sure of a sale,
took back the fruit reluctantly, and pass
ed on, crying out Heres your oranges
and apples -
Walter set about thinking what had
oecome of his money. The more he
thought, the more certain he felt that he
had put his pojcketbook in the pocket in
which he had first felt for 1t. Why was
1t not there now? That was a question
which he felt utterly incompetent to an
swer.
Have you lost anythingr inquired a
gentleman who sat just behind Walter.
Looking back, he found that it was a
gentleman of fifty who addressed him.
Yes, SIR" he said, 81 have lost my

CHAPTER XVI.

Walter went through two cars, looking
about him on either side, thinking it pos
sible that the thief might have taken his
seat In one of them. There was very
little chance Of this, however. Next he
passed into the smoking car, where, to
his Joy no less than his surprise, he found
the man of whom he was in search play
ing cards with three other passengers.
He looked up carelessly as Walter APP
preached, but did not betray the slight
est confusion or sign Of guilt. To let the
reader into a secret, he had actually taken
Walters pocketbook but was TOO cunning

the money, and thrown the p0cketbook
