said Mrs. Kirkibee. "Or even II we
know no one in the city there must
be somebody who would like a dinner
to-day"
"Yes," said her husband, "even
skeleton at the feast would make a
hit with us just now"
AS If in answer to their wish, there
was a timid knock at the back doors
Mrs. Kirkibee rushed to open it.
There stood a dilapidated looking
man with the hangdog air and un.
wholesome pallor of the jailbird. He
lifted yellow and shaky hand to his
hat
Come right in" exclaimed the de.
lighted housewife. Come right in
Dinner is all ready"
She took the trembling caller by
the sleeve and led him into the house
After the wanderer had earnestly
protested that he could eat no more
Mrs. Kirkibee compelled him to dis
pose of a quarter of mince pie. Then
as he arose staggeringly to his feet
Kirkibee presented him with cigar
which business acquaintance had
given to Kirkibee the day before.
The guest stood for moment with
the cigar in one hand and his bat
tered hat in the other. He tried sew,
eral times to find his voice before he
spoke with twitching mouth and
weakly quavering chin.
"Missus and sir, this is tn best lay

ATTEMPT WHOLESALE MURDER.
Austrian Officers Sent Deadly Poison

Vienna--An extraordinary attempt

accompanied by circular recon-

Captain Nader took some of the pills

that all the pills contained cyanide

RESCUED FROM NINE
AFTER BEING IMPRISONED SEW.
EN- DAYS IN BURNING MINE
TWENTY MEN SAVED.
Fought Apparently Hopeless Battle
Against Death, Eating Bark From
Timbers and Leather From
Their Caps to Sustain Life.

Cherry, Ills.-Hoping against hope,
and fighting against the terrible heat
and gases in the blazing coal mine,
rescuers in search of bodies, came
upon twenty men who still chung to
life, on Saturday, and the men were
brought TO the top. All are on the
road to recovery after a narrowing ex-
perience which seems almost beyond
belief.
After seven days and nights of con-
finement In the mine In which hun
dreds met death when fire broke out;
after sufferlngs which almost drove
them to madness, they are again sur
rounded by their wives and children,
and from staring death In the face,
are again planning bright things for
the future.
After the men had been located, It
took six hours to bring them to the
surface, and when the cage came up
with the men aboard almost every
human being in the little town was
present There were many dramatic
scenes enacted-unbounded Joy upon
the part Of the families of the rescued
men, while others who had hoped that
their loved ones were among those
that had been miraculously spared,
turned away In bitter heart-breaking
disappointment.
One of the men rescued says: AT
one o'clock last Saturday the pit boss
came to measure my work. After he
went waited for the team to come for
the coal, but in two hours 1t had no.
come, so I started to find out what
was. the matter.
Pretty soon saw smoke and
felt that the ventilation fan had
stopped. The fire had been burning
for an hour, but that was the first
knew OF 1t.
II started to run then. but met
George Eddy and some others, about
81 in ALL and Mr. Eddy led us way
back where had been working. Then
we tried to throw up barrier, but II
was pitch dark and we did not gel
along well. All the time we breathed
bad gas. had nothing to eat of my
own, but 7 chewed bark and drank
water. Later we even ate the leather
from our caps. We got the water by
making little holes in the bottom OF
the entry. We made five of these
holes and there was always some one
at them"
At first he said. the men sang
songs, told stories. and hoped for res
cue. But at the last all hope had beer
abandoned. and the men were toe
weak to sing or talk.
Twenty saved, 92 known dead and
1913 missing is now the record at the
st. Paul mine. There is still hope o.
others being rescued alive.

Kirkibee.

SANER JULY FOURTH.

Final compilations in Chicago of
Fourth Of July disasters now show
a large reduction of deaths and cas-.
ualties to the credit of the "sane
Fourth movement but an increase in
fire losses. The comparison stands:
Deaths-1sos, 1853; 1909, 90; gain,

E Fire losses-190S, s257,96O; 1909.
S724,415; loss $466,455.
These figures being necessarily COM
parative, the amount of saving cannot
be more than estimated. The record
for this Fourth in the fire loss columns
does not agree with the general re-
duction in fire waste which is result

The past year there was pain out
Of the general fund $4,000. Included
in this was an election expense Of S..
$40 which we will not have this year
besides numerous other expenses that
occurred which are not likely to be re-
peated this year. 1t Is quite certain
, that the expenses viii not be any
greater and 1t Is exceedingly doubtful
If they are az great
It therefore seems very conservative
to figure that the receipts OF the year
together with the moneys now on hand
will be approximately s111,000. It
; is also safe to say that the expendi-
lures will not overrun last years and
we will place the amount at $4,000.
. This leaves us a balance OF $50, 900.
Deduct from this amount the cost of
the new building to be built $4,000
and there still remains a margin of
$4,000.
, 1t would seem that the most skep-
: teal would be easily convinced If they
took the time to look the matter up
thoroughly that the board were acting
wholly within their Jurisdiction in
their action in awarding the contract.
It Is also apparent that they are work.
ing to the interests of the tax payers

anyone that it does not pay to build a
cheap structure when building is to
be erected. The materials to be put

it will be substantial, and a credit to

We do not believe that there are any
large humber of the citizens of the
county who are opposed to this build
ing. and that large majority of our
people are thoroughly in accord with
the board in their action.

PLENTY OF FUNDS FOR JAIL,

There has been some sentiment ex-
pressed by couple Of the county pa
pers adverse to the building of the
new county jail and sheriff's residence
presumably on the grounds that the
funds that were to be available for this
purpose were inadequate to build such
a structure as the board have con-
tracted for.
In order to satisfy ourselves we
went to the county auditors Office and
went over the matter with County All
ditor Bice with the result that we find
that the funds in hand and coming
In will be amply sufficient for the pay
ment of the contract price of the build
ing and leave a neat balance besides,
1t is estimated that the building
complete, including all the fixtures.
such as plumbing, heating, electric fix
lures, ETC., will reach a sum of approx.
imately $4,000. That is as high as II
is placed by anyone who has given the
matter any careful attention. The
building is to be completed in about
year.
The books at the court house show
that there is now in the hands of the
treasurer in the general and building
funds and available for this purpose
: about 100000, outstanding taxes an
proximately $4,000. The interest on
the county money deposited in various
banks will during the year reach a
sum of about $4,000 which also goes
to the general fund; penalties, etc.,
can safely be estimated at $4,000. also
TO the general fund; fees from the
courts, ETC., will add $4,000 more to
the fund. There will come from the.
register of deeds office during the year
some $1,000. Then add to, this rbe.
levy for the year $4,000. There Will

These figures are estimated ON the
past year when we have had poor

ed. With the fine prospects ahead for
a good crop 1T is to be expected that
payments will be easier and that there
wi Wlll be probably more money in the
