CHERRY, Ill. Nov. 1s.-For the first
time since the mine horror of Saturday
the bodies Of about 300 victims were To-
Gated today by daring explorers in the
poisonous depths of the second gallery.
The temper Of the people was feared and
an attempt to keep the secret was made
One body was brought to the surface and
concealed for an hour at the top of the
pit before being turned over to the under
taker, and then only because the discovery
had become known.
Tho first descent into the ventilating
shaft was made by ]. w. Paul, George II.
Rice and X. Y. Williams on a temporary
cage constructed during the night and
forenoon. The second descent was made
by Mine Inspectors James Taylor and
Thomas Moses, who brought up the body.
Mr.. Taylor's plan of do-or-die attack on
the main shaft, where it is reported the
temperature is still around 100 degrees
Fahrenheit, was delayed by the expedition
into the air pit
After the removal OF the body, the ex-
perts held a short conference and upon
the conditions reported, it was determined
to break the seal Of the main shaft at
onee. force Of laborers was put to work
and by o'clock the shaft was pouring
gases and smoke into the air.
News Of the recovery Of the first body
spread rapidly through the village and as
the ambulance, flanked by soldiers, passed
through the streets, distressing scenes were
witnessed. Women, rushing out of their
rouses, pushed franticaly through the
crowds in vain attempt to look into the
wagon.
States Attorney Reckhart gently told
them that Identification would require some
inc and the crowd began to fall back
from the wagon, but until late at night
the little brick morgue was surrounded
by anxious inquirers
The recovered body was identified tonight
as that Of Ole Friborg, unmarried. Sever
volunteers carried hose into the main shaf,
tonight and turned stream on the burn.

Women's Hats Are Shipped
Per Size and Not Weight

Womens hats have grown so great in
size that the express companies have
changed their tactics. They are handling
the big ones now according to dimensions
Instead Of weight The larger the hat, the
higher the charge is the rule.
II a woman buys new headgear of the
Gainsborough or peach basket type she
pays for the hat. maybe, not according
to the worth OF the willow plumes, the
corded silk or the imported velvet. but
by the amount Of air the hat displaees.
The woman pays for the immensely OF
the hat, not for its concrete value.
Omaha dealers In millinery have just
figured it out that the new system Of COM
putting charges is not in their favor. They
insist that the rates are not on a fair
basis and they object TO paying charges
on mere space.
The raise In the express charges applies
most vigorously 10 the extreme models
The big picture hat, the washtub the we'll
known peach basket and the imported
Gainsbororgh are the first ia feel the
power OF the big express carriers. Tne
fur mrban and the shaggy beaver, con-
s.dered the most chic for the winter
months, do not come under the pail OF
he new rule.
As the hat increases in size so does the
express charge. Omaha dealers pay higher
raies and the natural conclusion Is that
the price comes out In the hs.

day, November Il, he sighted a boat which
he believed to be the Nourmahal, riding at
anchor in the reef harbor at Hawks Nest,
San Salvador, the island which Columbus
made famous by his landing in 1892
Colonel Astor's friends here were in
cllned to doubt that the yacht seen by
Captain Durie was the Nourmahal, as San
Salvador is nearly 200 miles north of the
region where Colonel Astor planned to
cruise.
The fruit steamer passed within three
miles Of the yacht, a large white steam
vessel with yellow funnel and about 20
feet long, which description would answer
that of the Astor yacht
The storm had lost its hurricane intens-
ity on Sunday when the fruiter passed

vailed The yacht showed no signs OF
