ABSENCE
Of BODIES
IS A HELP
Features Encouraging the
Rescuers in Expectation
Of More Results Today

CHERRY, Nov. 22.-The rescuers
who came to the surface this evening
reported that live rats had been dis
covered in the newly explored portion
of the mine.
This increased the hope that the
rats came from a remote section of
the cave where comparatively pure
air remained and that if rats could
live there men also could. f
Officials of the mine declared today
that If any more men are brought out
alive, the work will have to be done
within "A hours, as the men must of
necessity be almost starved.
Two exploring parties in the St.
Paul mine today found indications
which led them to believe there are
a large number of living men in the
elast workings.
The searchers at 3 o'clock this af-
ternoon were able to pass far into
the galleries and their hope that
there are men alive further on
springs from the fact that where they
expected to find large number of
dead, none were found.
Nearly two hundred men are still
unaccounted for and are either dead
or alive in the mine. The survivors
taken from the mine on Saturday are
gradually recovering and it is believ-
ed all will live, although the cases
of few are very serious. 1t is still
considered inadvisable to give the
patients other than the Highest foods.
The story of their sufferings and
the heroism of their resourceful
leaders is one of the most thrilling
in all the black history of mining dis
asters.
Without food, heat or even air, the
men gnawed at bark from the logs
used as supports in the mines, erect
ed an earth wall to protect them
selves from the deadly gases of the
mine and successfully fought off
the death that appeared so imminent
until they finally were rescued.

to convince him that one or
officers and number of the
tors of the American Sugar an
fining company can be punishd
completely in the wholesale ro
which the concern has perpetratl
the port of New York for many y
past.
There is an unmistakable atmd
phere of high tension at the depaT'
ment of justice and the treasury de-
partment. Developments are follow
ing each other with startling rapidit1
1t is declared by an official who
kept in touch with the invest
that the ultimate exposure =
tonish even those who have been ex-
pecting the most sensational result.
Persons who have known the
president for years have seldom seen
his fighting blood so aroused as is
shown by his manner and words in
talking about the revealed frauds
committed by the Sugar Trust. Mr.
MacVeagh and Mr.. Wickersham are
thoroughly alive to the Importance
of the prosecutions and to the inter
est attached by the president to the
successful prosecution by the govern
ment of the inquiries, investigation
and suits it has undertaken. Mr.
MacVeagh has been told by the presi-
dent that he will be given the abso-
lutte right of appointment and dis
missal in the customs service as the
need may arise for carrying investi-
cation of the Trusts methods to the
very limit of exposure. Mr.. Loeb
collector of the port of New York
has received direct personal assur~
ance from the president that he will
have the enthusiastic backing of the
White House in carrying out his
plans for reforms of the custom ser
vice at New York.
Mr.. raft has told Mr.. MacVeagh
and MT. Wickersham that the govern
ment must recover every penny OF
which it has been defrauded by the
Sugar Trust and other offenders; thai
every person connected with the
Sugar Trust, no matter how high his
position in the community and in the
organization of the trust, against
whom evidence of completely in the
crimes that have been committed car
be secured, must be sent to the pen
itentiary. Mr.. Wickersham and Mr..
MacVeagh have reported to the presi-
dent, and have received his sanction
in their determination to press on
criminal courts an inquiry into the
actions of the higher officials of the
Sugar Trust.
Not for many years have the Law
officers of the government gone sc
heartily into any Trust investigation
as they have done in the present in
stance. 1t is not to be denied that &
large part of their enthusiasm and
satisfaction in the unhampered con
duct of their work is derived from
their knowledge or President Taft's
attitude, and from the attitude OF
their immediate superior. Mr.. Wick

GOLD sPOONED BABIES DEAR.

NEW YORK, Nov. 22.-That it
requires $4,000 year to support
an aristocratic baby was developed
in the supreme court this afternoon,

the estate of his three-year-old
daughter, Althea Rudd Ward. The
baby girl lives with her father on

SILENT AS TO Definite INTENTIONS. BUT
FIGHTING SHIPS TO NICARAGUA
EXPLANATIONS OF DEATHS OF AMERICANS FAR FROM WHOLLY ACCEPTED

WASHINGTON, Nov. 22.-Strain-
ed now almost to the breaking point,
it remains for the next few days, per-
haps one or two will suffice, to show
whether the relations between the
United States and Nicaragua are to
be snapped off short.
This government has not accepted
as facts beyond all contradiction the
explanations of Nicaragua to date
touching upon the execution of the
two Americans, Grace and Cannon,
by order of the zelaya government.
American ships of war today are
speeding towards the shores of
Nicaragua, under forced draught.
What attitude will be taken, wheth-
er bluejackets will be landed to take
command of the situation, or what
may or may not be done, the depart
ment declined to say this afternoon.
Secretary of State Knox, however,
is authority for the statement that a
demand for reparation will be made
upon Nicaragua, should inquiries de-
velop that the allegations SO far made
touching upon the death of the
Americans are we'll grounded. Sec
retary Knox is known to be acting
with the full approval of President
Taft.

Rarhern and Surgeons.

John lie Barbour was the first mas
ter of the Honorable Company of Bar
bers six centuries ago. At one time
the BARRIERS and the surgeons preyed
upon the public in loving brotherhood
and settled their family quarrels un-
der the roof of one hall. By an agree
able arrangement the community was
to be "bled" on a system which for
babe the surgeon to cut hair, shampoo
or shave and required the barber to
proceed no further in the art of heal
ing than the extraction of teeth and
"cupping." But as the surgeons grew
in the social scale they sighed for re-
lief from their lowlier brethren and
built q hall and formed a guild OF
their own, magnanimously handing
over the joint home in Monkwell
street to the barbers.-London Stand

Clam broth Is good for weak stom-

Cranberry poultice is recommended
for erysipelas.
Daily exercise with light dumb bells
eventually cures round shoulders.
Try taking cod liver oil in tomato
catsup if you want to make it pala-

Mustard plasters made with the

To cure a sting of bee or wasp, mix
common earth with water and apply
at once.
When cut will not heal, saturate
piece of absorbent cotton with coal
oil and bind on.
Nothing takes the oil from the skin
more quickly than a soap that does
not agree with 1t.

A sure relief from thirst when water

Cause of Crowded Teeth.

When man had more teeth than
his jaw could conveniently hold, 1t
used to be the theory of dentists to
explain that he had inherited the
large teeth of one parent and the
small jaw of the other. Recently
some good observers, notably DR.. Sim
Wallace and DR.. Harry Campbell of
England. stated that the trouble is not
hereditary; that 1t had its beginning
in each persons babyhood, and that
our teeth are poor and irregular and
our jaws contracted because we do
not exercise these parts sufficiently
during the weaving process. In sup
port of this statement. they point out
the fact that the first set of teeth is
practically never irregular. never
overlaps and is very seldom defec-
tive.

To Iron Fine Clothes.

When you iron waists, one-piece
dresses and articles liable to crush on
the clothes rack, make a number of
tubes with newspapers, tie with stout
strings and slip the blouse or dress
on these holders and hang them on a
nail or a convenient hook Once dry,
they will not crush so easily, and can
be hung in the closet on these holders.
Mailing tubes are the best for the
purpose. but an old magazine or two
newspapers rolled tightly together an
swer the purpose.
Do not hang ironed towels over each
other, for they will not be smooth If
packed while still damp. Hang mems
shirts by the lower portion, exposing
the bosom, neckband and cuffs to dry.
Petticoats should be folded but once
and hung up to dry around the waist
band, which retains some dampness.
Handkerchiefs and starched collars
should be laid upon paper or napkins
near the fire to dry or in the sunshine.

CHAPTER TX

Whatever the keen suffering of the
night hours. when Mathilde realized what
wss an honest mans opinion of the posi-
ton in which she had placed herself. il
was with much the same manner as usual
that she met Stewart the next morning.
The question of Captain Kerr was not

Both were busy-he. out of doors she.

they left the hotel at IL O'Clock.
Mathilde's heart rather sank, as she
found that they had carriage to them
selves, but as Stewart had laid in an
abundant supply of papers and proceeded
TO immerse himself in them, she willingly
followed suit.
Silently they sped westward, through
the quiet English landscape, lying in
varying tints of browns and tawny gel
lows, and even riverside bits of green,
under the luminous gray of the wintry
sky.
Mathilde's paper had dropped. and her
thoughts were in the fieeting winter land
scape. So absorbed was she that her
husbands voice startled her.

The first thing TO do is TO cause vo-

throat or some emetic. Then take a
