HASTINGS Mine
FIRE SPREADS
VICTOR FUEL COMPANY USING
EVERY EFFORT TO ExTiN-
GUIsH FLAMES.
MINERS FEAR DANGER
MANAGER HOPES TO STOP FIRE
AND BEGIN WORK AGAIN
VERY SOON.


News Sunday night says: The fire In
the Hastings mine of the Victor Fuel
Company is still raging unchecked.
Several small explosions occurred dur
ing the day and 1t is now feared that
the blaze has spread to remote drifts
in the big mine. At intervals during
the day miners were carried to the
surface in an unconscious condition.
having been overcome by smoke and
gases.
The company surgeons were kept
busy caring for the exhausted men
who had gone down to try and locate
the blaze. 1t is now admitted by COM
pany officials that the situation is ex-
tremely serious. Nearly all of the
fire and pit bosses have quit their po-
sitions rather than enter the mine.
The blaze is believed to be located
nearly a mile from the entrance. and
there is no means of getting behind
the fire until crosscut mas been driv'
en- across the burning drift. This will
enable the miners to bulkhead the en-
try from the rear, after which 1t Is
believed that the fire can be smoth'
cred by fire shifts working into the
mine. Much difficulty is being expert
enceI in getting the men to enter the
mine.
Frequently small explosion spreads
terror among the foreign miners. who
realize that terrific blast may oc'
cur at any moment. Yesterday mum
ber of miners were brought to Has
nvrfn
mine but refused to go back after the
first shift.
Upon Frank McDermott, the super
intendent of the mine, the hopes OF
the company are now resting. McDer
mott, who was badly burned by the ex
plosion that started the nre, alone
knows the exact location of the blaze
and is relied upon to lead the men to
the sc at of the conflagration. Although
badly injured, he was able today to di
rect the work of starting the crosscut
which 1t Is hoped will intersect the
burning drift behind the blaze and en-
able measures to be taken to keep the
fire from spreading farther into the
workings.
AS soon as this work is completed
the drift will be bulkheaded and
sealed and the dangerous work OF
working the fire back will be started
McDermott tomorrow expects to lead a
shift of twenty volunteers in the real
attack on the blaze. Two shifts will
be kept at the entrance of the mine
ready for immediate duty in relief
work.
At the offices of the Victor Fuel
Company at Hastings tonight it was
maintained that the fire is now under
control and that the resumption of op
erations is but matter of a few
hours. General Manager w. H. Muir
ray of Denver is on the ground and
in personal charge of operations. The
company was about ready to begin
taking coal out of the second level
when the fire broke out. but the dis
aster has blocked this work.

GOOD BLOOD PAYS.
The Lesson That the Western Stock
Show Association is Trying to
ra,eh

There is an old saying in England
among stockmen that "the bull is half
the herd" This is as true as any Old
saw ever uttered, but the stockmen
of this country are still learning TINS
fact by experience The main object
of the National Western Stock Show
is to educate the stockmen of the West
to the fact that there is good profit In
good blood and in order that they may
profit by the lesson in practical way
the association has enlisted the assist
ance of the Pure Blood Record Asso-
citation to provide few really choice
animals in the various breeds that can
be sold to western breeders at low
price. The public sales to be held at
the stock show in Denver during the
week of January 18th, are selected
from the best herds in America and
are sold not for the purpose OF making
a big profit, but to introduce the breeds
into the West. The buyers make their
own prices. The animals are selected
by a committee and are not only typi-
cal of the breed they represent, but are
choice individuals.
L lie AMERICAN oHol liioiH blVSuN''
Association will offer in this sale about
fifty-five head of choice young bulls,
from such herds as those of F. w,
Harding of Wisconsin, N. p. Clarke, 7.
]. Wornall & Sons, C.. E. Leonard
Son, d. R. Hanna, Carpenter & Ross or
Ohio, A. C. Shellenberger. w. A. For
sythe, H. NJ. Hill, Henry Stunkel, Chas.
Wells & Son, B. N. Newly, Fremont
Watts.
These names are well known to
Shorthorn breeders through the whole
country and they represent the best
of the Shorthorn herds of America.
The Hereford Association is arrang-
ing a sale of choice things fully equal
to the Shorthorn offerings. The very
best breeders and herds of the country
will be represented. The same may be
said of the Galloway breed and of the
Aberdeen Angus.
This feature of the big stock show is
the business end and the annual dis
persal of these well bred cattle through
the West means millions to the live
stock industry of this section in the
future.
The new building for the stock show
is completSl 1t represents an invest
ment of 100000 and will comfortably
seat over 5000 people. The big arena
will be constantly occupied with
stock during the week of January 18TH
29rd and the indications are that the
show will be the greatest ever held
West of Chicago.

Thirty Earthauake. in Montana.

Virginia City, Mont.-Thirty earth
quakes were felt in this section during
the week ending Saturday, December
2Gth, the last tremor being recorded
at 4:30 Saturday morning. The
ground has trembled perceptibly with
the earth wave apparently coming
from the south. which has lent color
to the theory that a big new geyser
is about to burst forth in the Yellow
stone park, which lies seyenty-five
miles southeast of Virginia City.
No damage has resulted other than
considerable plaster has been thrown
down.
