STEPS TO CUT DOWN
OUR NINE DISASTERS

WASHINGTON, May Gas a re-
suit of its investigation into the causes
of mine disasters, and with the hope of
reducing the number of fatalities in the
coal mines Of the United States, the
geological survey has Just issued n list
of permissible explosives for the use
of miners and operators.
Twelve manufacturers of explosives
sent twenty-nine different explosives to
the station to be tested. Six manufac
turers were successful and seventeen ex-
plosives passed the requirements.
The tests are under the general di-
rection of DR. Joseph A. Holmes, eX
pert in charge of the technologic branch
of the geological survey,
"Thc explosives were given four tests
under different conditions in the large
steel gallery said Or. Holmes "This
gallery is one hundred feet long and
six feet i'm diameter and is filled with
firedamp, air and coal dust, or coal
dust and air, of various mixtures. and
the explosive is discharged into each
mixture ten times If it fails to ignite
the fircdamp or coal dust in any in
stance, it is considered satisfactory and
termed a permissible explosive.

FIRST THINGS FIRST
URGED IN A SERMON
Rev. P. A. Simpkin breaches an
Appealing Discourse at Phil.
lips Congregational.

The sermon at Phillips Congrega-
tional church Sunday evening was ad-
dressed to the pressing need of put
ting first things first The pastor, Rev.
Z. 4, Simpkin, preached from the text,
'For a man s. hfa consisteth not in
the abundance of the things which he
possesseth' In dealing with the ready
surrender Of men to the appeal of
things, the preacher found If TO be one
of life S gravcst dangers because of the
indifference TO spiritual things that
comes of engrossment in business and
pleasure In part, he said:
All that rightly enters into life may
properly receive our devotion. But with
out presenting an ascctic ideal, 1t is true
that life which finds no more than that
which appeals to the creature element in
all the range from lust to ambition, Is not
more than beasthood. We are learning
TO truly enter into the universe we were
set to dominate, But we forget too often
and easily that values are all relative
save one. and that Is in the purpose to
find the spiritual unity which is alone
found in that which Jesus called the en-
tcring into the kingdom:
The age is a marvellous one In its
privileges for human life. II is wonder
iul In its opportunity for the expression
Of the individual, But the determining
factor In all that makes a man is within
nl!uSelIs ana not In mere privilege or Op-
portunity. The other factor that com
pctcs man Is not in things and cannot
be. 1t Is in the great God back OF things.
who can alone make man the complete
unit. and add to him that which makes
the true success and happiness. When
that factor is found, then has man the
secret OF NE and victory. The clements
that make up the life to be desired are
not In any material substance, but arc
above all material things. Indeed. il Is
almost tritc to repeat the truth OF the
age. the truth that most things worth
while have been wrought out of narrow
ness and the stress of poverty The man
who finds his own life n maze, or the uni
verse q riddle. does so because he has left
out the God factor as a part OF his per-
sonallty. and. therefore, of the problem
For this Is the marvel. that however wide
life may he In It's reach. or however mar
row, IL Is still ever true that the solution
is within the individual heart.
When one finds the truth OF the real
possibility of life with God as the COM
pleting element, one finds the beginning
of the life beautiful. for he has found the
purpose and the end of God
Browning said, 1T takes the Infinite
to brush a hairs breadth off the dust of

abiding in the truth eternal that touches

Of great importance in opening way

UNCERTAIN CURRENTS
OF DIPLOMACY FELT
Latest Step in Settlement of Our
Dispute With Nicaragua
Significant.

WASHINGTON, May 23.-Central
and South American diplomats, who
have been watching the developments
| IN the dispute between Nicaragua and
the United States touching the settle
mcnt of the disputed Emery claim, point
Significantly to the fact that Pedro
Gonzales, who has been appointed an
envoy extraordinary by Nicaragua to
settle the case, is political opponent
of the executive.
Some of Gonzales friends pretend TO
see IN this appointment a clever move
by Ielaya to shift to political enemy
the responsibility for the settlement OF
| the issue, which he recognized could be
no longer postponed, When ii became
known that Gonzales was coming to
Washington, there was considerable
feeling on the part Of the friends OF
Senor Espinosa, the regularly accredited
minister. They now suggest that per
haps after all it was intended as a
friendly act on the part Of Zclaya.
Whatever may have been Ielaya s in
| tcntion. Gonzales is evidently putting
the responsibility for his acts on the
former, having cablcd TO him the proc
tocol for the arbitration Of the claim,
which was laid before the envoy by
Secretary Knox,
be a long way from the conclusion of
the dispute. As the protocol provides
for arbitration in event there is no com
promise within a definite period, the
senate may insist upon the document
being submitted to it for approval. This
was done in the case of proposed ar
bitration protocol with Santo Domingo
and resulted in long delay.
The prospect for an arbitration of
! the Emery claim is believed so immi-
nent that some consideration has been
given to the selection Of an agent to
represent the United States. Judge Will
liam l.. Penficld, who died recently, was
the United States agent in the early
stages Of the negotiations. Either his
son. Walter s. Penfield, who was asso-
ciated with him rs counsel for the
Emery claimants or G. w. Noyes Of
Boston, general counsel for the Emery
| company, probably will be selected

ton, this week and it Will be impcra-
tive upon the county commissioners TO
provide other quarters for the training
of school boys.
1t is likely that the orphans home
and day nursery on South State street,
near the county lnfirmary, will be pur-
chased by the county for this purpose,
Negotiations have been on for some
time and everything has been agreed
upon except the price The orphans
home management demanded $4,000 at
fist, but the commissioners would not
pay that much and the price has been
considerably lowered, it is said. The
commissioners have made an offer
which the management is now consider
ng and if accepted will close the deal
1T once.
The building is practically four stor
les and there is approximately four
acres in the ground. The orphans home
management bought the plot for five
acres, but Commissioner Walter j. Bur.
ton had the plot surveyed last week
with the result that it was shown that
there is only three and three-quarters
acres in the site, The building is of
brick and is a fairly substantial struc-
ture with some Of the more modern Ia
cilities lacking.
1t has been suggested that since the
infrmary is close the boys in the de
tontion home could be given employment
on county infirmary ground to good
advantage both to the county and the
boys.
