HOPE THAT
OTHERS MAY
Be ALIVE
UNITED PREss LEASED wInn. l

Victoria, b. c., Oct. Slope II
strong today that some of the five
men entombed in the mine shaft
where the fatal explosion occurred
last Sunday are still alive. Rescue
parties who have been working to re-
cover the bodies OF the supposed vic
Tins ever since the explosion took
place, we're astonished last night
when they we're greeted by the bray
ing of eight mules. The party, which
was led by Mine Inspector Thomas,
had passed the carcass OF dead
mules, and had Just completed break
ing through a heavy cave-in, when
the living mules, almost famished
were found. Members of the rescue
party were surprised, as Il was not
thought possible that anything could
live for a moment after the fearful
explosion Sunday, which swept ten
miners into eternity.
Proceeding to the mule barn, the
men we're greeted by the faint cries
OF very hungry kitten, which was
the mascot of the shaft, and made
It's home in the barn. The famished
animals were fed and watered, and
the kitten was carried to the surface.
The finding of the mules and the
kitten alive now leads 20 strong
hope that John T.. Jones, the pump
man, still lives. The station where
Jones was working is more than coo
feet farther away from the shaft
than where the mule barn is located.
There also appears TO be possibili-
ty that Pozarlch and Tomaoh. who
were working some distance from
the shaft. may be still alive.

DIGESTIVE
DISORDERS
Cured by the Tonic Treatment Al
the Case OF This Oregon
Man Proves.

The experience Of sufferers from stom.
ach trouble. who have tried the tonic
treatment with DIR. Williams Pink
Pills, has been that their trouble has
disappeared as soon as the blood was
made pure. The numerous disorders of
the stomach, As catarrh of the stomach,
acid stomach, nervous dyspepsia, heu-
ralgia of the stomach, gastritis, and
lack of tone, have the same underlying
cause-impure blood. In each case the
stomach is weak. DIR. Williams Pink
Pills supply the stomach with the
strength il needs by enriohing and puri-
flying the blood. Pure blood gives tone
10 the nerves, muscles, and glands of
the stomach and makes IL capable OF
properly performing the work of diges-
tion.
A recent cure of n severe case of stom-
ach trouble is that Of Mr.. L. G.. Coffin,
