DANGERS INCOALDUST.

The United States Government has
entered actively into the matter OF
making mines safer for workmen. A.
II. Storrs. Of Scranton, Pa, a mining
expert, who arrived on the White Star
liner Adriatc to-day. brought a mass
Of data from Europe about safety ap-
planes and methods In mining In use
abroad.
Mr., Storrs was in Paris on vaca-
ton when he was asked by the United
States Geological Survey 10 undertake
the work. Hts report will be supple
mentnry to the inspection ofHmerican
mines made by French experts at the
request Of the same bureau.
~ spent much time with the French
expert Tafranel Mt the experimental
station at Leivan, In the north NJ
France" said Mr, Storrs,
THAT is one Of the bes, stations that
has been established for the purpose
Of determining and demonstrating
means Of protecting the lives OF miners.
II has a gallery sixty-ive metres long,
which is later to he given a length OF
@ metres. The prlncipa' experiments
here recently have been those FOR tie
gard to explosions because of coal dust.
Menace In Coal Dust.
There are about as many varieties
OF coal dust as there are Of coal. In
the gallery I certain dust will be scat
tered for the entire length. Dynamite
Or gas will be set of at one end Of the
gallery TO see how the explosion will
carry through the 'ergth Of the gallery.
Some dusts carry flames easier than
others BY the experiments It has been
found that many OF the so-called un-
accountable explosions which have
caused big disasters in mines have been
due to the explosive force Of coal dusts
another important feature Of the
station Is the rescue apparatus. There
Is a trained corps OF rescuers. The
principal part OF the equipment con-
gen tubes, The rescuers are made to
work in smoke and under other difficult
ties. In which they would be suffocated
should they remove the helmets. This
gives them a confidence in themselves

hsr lover tried to end his lie because
he thought her faithless. 4 rival Of the
boy, who was opposed to the s!rl mar.
rying Young Haramil. was responsible
for the attempt At selt.destruction, and
the girl has denounced him.
For the past eight months Haramll
had been counting Susie. Several weeks
ago M!chael Albanasi. a dashing Hun
gar!an youth. began TO pay attention 10
Miss Madaci, and Haramil believed he
had been lifted. The girl treasured him
that this was not the ease, as she did
not love his rival. Haramil told his
sweetheart then tina, II he could no,
marry her he would end his life.
II cannot live TO see any one else win
YOU" he declared plsadingly. On Tues
day night Albanasi stopped Haramil on
tho street and told him It was useless for
him 10 continue his attentions to the
girl they both loved. Albanasi declared
he had cut him out"
Haramil went directly 10 the Madacl
home. Miss Susie was not at home. but
her sister Bessie assured him there was
nothing In Albanasi's story.
Il believe It, She has deserted mo.
Tell Susie die for love Of her"
With these words the heart broken
lover whipped a revolver from his
pocket and SAINT = bullet into his breast.
Miss Madaci wanted TO marry her dy-
ing lover last night. but the physicians
forbade this because OF his condition.
She did not persist when told 1t might
only cause him more pain. She thought
the ceremony might restore his conf
dence and perhaps have a ray Of hope
for his lie.
