In reference to the obtaining of
the greatest percentage OF coal in the
Gpration of mines within the Stat.
much can be done to obtain greater
tonnage per acre.
Much Coal Lost
We have mining fields where not
over fifty per cent of the coal is being
secured, the. remainder being prac-
tlcally lost.
In some sections there is being oh {.
tanned 81 to IS percent OF the coal.
and this is obtained under the mott
systematic system of inspection and
hy following specifically prepared
plans.
In those sections where the great
er percentage is obtained 1t will be
found that the service of the skilled
mining engineer IS most in evidence,
and in those sections where the great
est waste occurs, the service of the
skilled mining engineer is lacking.
Fire Coal Dust
There are many essential details
concerning the danger Of the pres
ence of fine coal dust as a factor in
mine explosions which appear to he
unknown by many mining men. and
by other mining men the theories as
advanced by men Of authority are

cooper's Theories Are Being Rapidly Accepted
by Eastern People.

Z. 7. Cooper, whose theory that
the human stomach Is the cause Of
most III health and who created a
furore In Chicago. st. Louis and other
western cities. Is meeting with the
same remarkable success with his
medicine throughout the east. Cooper
has convinced an immense number OF
people that his theory is sound and
his medicine viii do what he claims.
Perhaps the most interesting fea-

taken his medicines and have become
enthusiastic converts to his beliefs.

Lives lost per 1000 employees and per
tons produced, 1906:

"The above tabulation might he eX-
tended to take in greater number
of states or countries, but it is not
necessary for general comparison.
A review of the above tabulation
will show that our state has a very
high tonnage. for each person employ
ed but very low tonnage for each
life lost. 1t would appear that a
large tonnage is gained at the expense
of life which may be considered only
upon its commercial value.
I'm West Virginia for 1906 we lost
six lives for each million tons pro-
duced. The landowner receives an
average of six cents royalty per ton,
or for a million tons he receives &c.,
600. 90 or for each life lost $4,000,
which might be the commercial value
OF mine employee, and our statistics
show that the average employe earns
in total wages sum sufficient to pay
the usual six per cent. interest upon
$40, 900.
1T is repulsive to so value the worth
of mine labor. Let US take a more
humanitarian view and endeayor to
secure conditions that will minimize
the ratio based upon the number en-
ployed and thus give the employe a
larger lease upon life and prolong the
happiness OF those dependent upon
him. This may be accomplished by
a stricter discipline within the mines
and by a system of education that
may result In those in charge of
mines exercising greater precaution.
This institute can help in this par
ticular work"

Is Appealed for by the West
Virginia Fair As-
ISOLATION.

An appeal for the establish fnent OF
an annual exposition Of HARRISON
county's varied products md the
maintenance OF a pyrmanen exposl.
ton park Is made ID the a nounce-
ment contained in he prem ium list
and fair book for the Forthcoming an
nual fair Of the West Virginia Fair
Association, which has just been is
sued.
The appeal Is as follows;
The West Virginia Fair Association
this year announces its third annual
state fair and prize stock exhibition.
For two years the association has con-
tended against the worst possible
weather conditions, which have pre-
vented the securing of the necessary
funds to carry out the extensive pro-
gram of improvements contemplated
by its offers and directors. 1t was
the intention to build both
Fine Arts Building
and machinery hall, this year and
each succeeding year to add new de-
partments and new attractions to
make 1t a wonderful exhibition OF all
the varied. resources OF this section
of the country-interesting not only
to the people of Harrison county, but
to all the people of the State and ad-
joining counties in Ohio, Pennsylvan-
la and Maryland
The association already has beau
tiful plot of 40 acres; perfect half
mile speedway, costing $1a 900; a
mammoth ampitheatre seating $500
persons; one hundred modern cattle
stalls, large, cool and airy, and 200
horse stalls: also, a large poultry
house, having door are;l of 2,400
feet Five hundred shade rees adorn
the grounds. What has a ready been
done represents an outlay Of $4,000.
Lack of (Io-operat ON.
This work has, been a complished
through the efforts of dozen citl-
zens of Clarksburg, who feel that they
have not had the cooperation Of the
business men of Clarksbnrg and the
people of the county. that the import
ance of the undertaking would seem
to justify.
Harrison is the second county Of
the state, with property valuation
of more than 54,00D,O00. 1t has
wonderful natural resources, splendid
manufactures, and is the best agrl-
cultural and grazing section OF the
state. The annual exhibition of our
varied products would attract the at
tention of the world. With the prop
er buildings erected for the purpose,
the manufacturers, merchants, farm
ers. machinists, and the oil, coal, gas
and lumber producers of this section
could make an annual display of our
wonderful resources that could
scarcely be equalled elsewhere and
the number of people such an EXPOSE
ton would attract could with diff
Guilty be estimated.
AbundantIy Able.
Why don't our people give such an
annual exhibition? A splendid site
has already been secured, and our
citizens are abundantly able to do the
rest.
The fair directors last fall reduced
the price of stock from 500 to $25
per share. A thousand citizens Of
our city and county could take one
share each and never miss the money
and complete the greatest exposition
park owned by any people of any sec
tion-a permanent source of pride
and pleasure to all the people of the
county. Can they pc induced to do
it?

AN EXPOSITION
FOR THE COUNTY

from the time when coal dust was
first mentioned as an element OF dan
ger, our government has just awaken
ed 70 the Importance of giving the
subject material concern.
Rock Headings.
The observation OF the writer I'M
the examination Of over twenty mines
after occurrences of disastrous ex-
plosions. has been that wet zones and
rock" headings have been important
agencies in restricting the extent of
the explosions where dust was fac
tor In It's propagation.
"A few. statisticlans and actuaries
have given full thought to the enor-
nous loss OF life in the United States
through accidental causes. The
number OF persons killed In the Uni-
ted States per year by accident is
fully $4,000, equal to half the popu-
lation OF the state of West Virginia.
Mining operations contribute O
small part OF these accidental deaths,
but occasionally there is wholesale
destruction of life by a mine explo-
sion, and the laymen, the press and
many others hold up their hands in
horror. and 1t Is not surprising. since
so much law has been enacted for
the express. purpose of reducing such
accidental death rate.
Apply Remedies
IF railroads kill pedestrians on
grade crossings and it Is found that
the number can be materially re-
duced by the installation of safety
gates. then safety gates should be
Installed or grade crossings abolished.
II on the other hand many lives are
lost within mines by certain causes.
these should be ascertained and eff
fective remedies applied. The causes
OF mine accidents are well known
and 1t is only a matter of installing
certain precautions to reduce the list
of fatalities, and this institute can be
of great benefit in creating a popular
opinion which may resolve itself into
demand that the necessary pre-
cautionary measures be adopted and
strictly exercised"
Mr.. Paul here read a tabulation
prepared by him showing the fatali-
ties for the year 1907 of mine en-
ployes. 1t showed total of S24
fatalities inside the mines in the
state, an average loss of 7.34 per
thousand employees, and 725 lives
lost per each million tons of coal
mined.
The following table was also read
by Mr., Paul, which he had prepared
for the occasion:

ITALIANS ARE KILLED
WHILE EXPORTING
MONEY
New Orleans Wine Merchant
Shoots Three Who Attempt
ed TO Rob Him.
SERIES or GRIMES
LEADS TO SHOOTING

New Orleans June 17.-Following
series OF crimes attributed to the
so-called BLACK Hand" In the Italian
quarters of New Orleans, one of the
worst tragedies ever connected with
that section occurred early today
when three Italians were shot to
death
According to the police these men
were killed as a result of an attempt
to eXtort money from Pierto Giacona
a wealthy Italian wine merchant. Gia-
coma and his son told the police that
these men had frequently bought wine
from them by the barrel and had in
yariably refused pay for it.
According 10 their story three men
forced them to ship wine to a point
in the state yesterday and returned
early today and ordered them to pre-
pare a meal. The elder GIacona sus-
pected trouble and hid a repeating
rifle near the tabe. When one of the
visiting Italians drew a heavy re-
volver and ordered them to produce
money and valuables the elder Giaco-
ma replied with a rifle shot. One man
fell dead and the other two attempted
to escape One was killed before he
got ten feet away and the other was
shot on the stairs.
