30 MINERS REPORTED DEAD
Explosion in British Columbia En-
tombs Sixty Men-Feared Death
List Will Be Larger.

Victoria, B. c., Oct. 6.-Thirty min
ers are believed to be dead as the
result of an explosion at the Extension
mine of the Wellington ColIiery Com
pany. The death list likely will be
even larger, as 50 miners were en-
tombed by the explosion, with slight
chance of rescue.
The shock was terrific, but its effect
was confined to the Slope wherein it
occurred. All of the men in the other
slopes and levels escaped.
No bodies had been recovered up to
a late hour. Fifty men were engaged
in rescue work. hundreds of inhab-
itants and miners volunteered aid,
but the nature of the rescue work pre-
Guided more than so being engaged
The resCIerS hoped the flames
would die down, so as to permit the
rescue Of the entombed. but their
chances seemed hopeless.
The explosion was due to fire damp,
the timbers in two levels at once ig-
hitting and the fire spreading with
great rapidity.
Residents of Nanaiao have been pre-
vented from going to Extension,
where the disaster occurred, and only
rescuers, miners and officials are on
the scene

THREE new LOCAL

OSKALOOSA is HEADQUARTERS
Dewhirst Furnace Company, oskaIoo-
sa College and the Shady Creek
Coal Company Have Organ
lied to Begin Business.

One of the most successful inven-
items ever produced by local genius
is the new furnace constructed for
the first time recently by Simon De
whirst, superintendent of the Oska-
loosa Paving Brick Co. The principal
merit of the new furnace lies in the
CRATES, which are specially construct
ed so the fire will consume the gases
evolving from the coal as well as the
mineral portion of the fuel, and there
by produce the maximum amount or
heat from a given quantity OF coal
and with minimum amount of smoke.
The invention has been given practi-
cal demonstrations at the brick yards
ard the power house of the Oskaloosa
Traction & Light Co., and has been
installed in the heating plant OF the
Iowa College at Grinnell. The success
or the invention was assured from
the start and no soliciting was neces-
sary to secure financial backing to ex
plot the patents or manufacture the
new furnace. A corporation to be
known as the Dewhirst Furnace Co.,
has now been organized by local par
ties, with capital stock of 100000,
for the manufacture and sale of the
furnaces and the new institution gives
promise of development into factory
Of large size.
The incorporators are Simon De-
whirst, VIM. P. Hawkins, H. w. Gar
ner, S. G. Magden and Fred E. Green.
The first annual stockholders meet
ing will be held in May, 1910, and I'M
til that time the following officers will
serve: "F+
President-Simon Dewhirst.
Vice-Pres.-H. w. Garner.
Secy- Treas.-F. Il. Green.
The articles of incorporation, which
have Just been fled with the county
re corder and secretary of state, state
the purpose OF the concern as being
for the sale of patent rights or u
censes for the construction and use
of the Dewhirst Furnace with such
other improvements as may hereafter
be made thereto or acquired by pat
ents in the United States or foreign
countries, and to erect factories to:
the manufacture of the furnace. The
corporation is to continue in business
for twenty years, unless renewed 1t
