Time was when fine stock and fine

that the same thing Is true Of man

It has been found that Quaker Oats

School children fed frequently on
Quaker Oats thrive physically and are
always capable of the best work at

the best food. One Of the attractive
features of Quaker Oats is the perfect

mine here. where an explosion occur
red on Saturday, though experts. who
succeeded in penetrating the smoke
filed air shaft to a depth Of 800 feet
late Sunday, returned with ray OF
hope for the griefstricken relatives
of the entombed men.
That the fire has been extinguished
was the conclusion of mining experts
and inspectors sent here by Governor
Deneen to investigate the calamity
and the cause.
For more than thirty hours the pr.
soners have been cut on from fresh
air, and undoubtedly have been sub
jected to smoke-filled veins. That life
could exist under such conditions is
doubted by many, but because no
trace of high temperature was found
in the depths of the mine Sunday
night, friends of the miners and even
of those of the company here, hope
that the victims may have found
safety in remote recesses of the mine.

who has not slept since arriving on
the scene of the catastrophe, received
an encouraging report after heroic
efforts had been made Sunday to open
the mine for the release of the en-
tombed men, or the discovery of the
much feared mass of dead.
At a late hour Sunday night the air
shaft in the mine had been sealed
tightly where it was opened during the
day. Opening of the main shaft is
expected to begin at 6 o'clock Monday
morning.
1t is expected the mine inspectors
will call for more volunteers from the
miners who are acquainted with the
plan of the mine. Oxygen apparatus

cessful exploration in the main shaft
has been ordered and is expected to
reach here early in the day. Five
men will be ready to go into the shaft
as soon as the seals have been broken,
provided conditions are safe.
The explorers will be sent into the
mine in the regular cage. This plan
was adopted because the bucket
scheme was found impracticable. in
sofar as the movements of the men
below were concerned. They could
not get out of the bucket
From the son of one of the missing
miners, young man named John
Reid, the railroad president heard
that conclusion of the earth had
been felt by farmers half a mile south
of the main shaft. The report was
sent to Henry Burke. an official of the
mining company. Burke rushed to

company.

he said excitedly.
What do you mean?" asked the
railroad president. What signal?"
John Reds boy said that he and
farmers whose land is over the south
ern end of the mine felt several con-
cussions of the earth this afternoon.
There were several shocks. and the
men who felt them are convinced they
were shots fired by the imprisoned
miners and that they were meant for
an assurance that at least some of
them live.

Matters In General.

State Auditor Barton is opposed to
insurance companies selling stock
through agents whose pay is taken
out of the money paid for the stock
Along the same line he will ask fol

holders.
The state auditor believes the prac-
tice of insurance companies putting
stock statesmen out on the road selling
stock and paying these statesmen out
of the money they secure from the
stockholders is not only bad practice,
but augurS well for someone to lose
money. For that reason he intends to
fight the practice if such is the prac-
tice in Nebraska, and he warns the
people against buying stock in such
companies.
This question was taken up at the
meeting of the insurance commission
ers from many states and a resolu-
ton was adopted asking all the states
to enact legislation along the lines
above set out
1t was brought out at that meeting
that from 20 to 30 per cent of the
stock on the market and that per cent,

reached the treasury of the company.
