Whole Town 10 Frantic.

About the little town Of Cherry the
widest scenes of its history followed.
Stores and residences were vacated
and almost every person of the popu-
lation of five thousand gathered about
the mine. From all directions teams
and pedestrians hurried into the city
from districts which had been noti-
fled by telephone. The shrieks Of the
women could be heard throughout the
town.
Every physician in the city and
many from nearby cities were caring
for hysterical relatives of those i'm.
prisoned in the mine. The town Of
ficials had hastily improvised hospi
tails and nurses and physicians for
those who might be taken from the
mine, but the preparations were need
less.
The st. Paul Mine, which is the
only one in Cherry, provided employ
ment for a thousand men. 1t Is the
property Of the Chicago, Milwaukee
and st. Paul railroad and Is on a spur
of that railroad, about Is miles from
Spring Valley.
Second Worst In History.
No accident Of similar nature has
been recorded in the history of mine
disasters In Illinois.
The greatest loss Of life In any
mine accident In this state occurred
In Braidwood in 1879, when 80 men
lost their lives. The accident was
caused by sudden breaking down and
flooding OF the mine. At Seigler, ILL.,,
so men have been killed in successive
mine accidents. There are $4,000 EN-
ployed in Illinois mines and during
the last fiscal year 1873 were killed IN
accidents and 800 injured.
The greatest tragedy of mining his
tory Is believed to have occurred In
Toxic, Japan, in 1907, when 47O per-
sons were killed. The maximum loss
of life in mine disaster in the United
States was recorded at Monongoh, Va,
in 1907, when 1898 miners were
killed.

Pres John Johnson, Sec.-Arthur Nel- son. Treas. Harvey Paul, Segt.
 at Arms-David Charles, Critic-W. Jackson. The literary program which followed would have done credit to a society which had many times six months experi- ence. The music, the reading, the debate, all were fine aud the finale-the Police Court-waS great. The society was organized by Rev. and Mrs. Bromley, Miss Tanner and Miss Olive Kale and is credit to all connected with it.
 Let every member, especially every officer elect make especial effort to be present at the be- ginning of the next school year and with concentrated effort make the year of 1909 1910 one of great advancement in the so- ciety. Longlive the Verstovian.

AN OUTING

On Friday and Saturday of last week a most enjoyable trip to the sealing camp was made possible for a number of our teachers thru the much appre- ciated kindness of MT. w. P. Mills in placing his fine power boat, The Spray, at their disposal, and to the hearty manner in which MT. Treirshield conducted the whole trip. The boat behaved in a way that only a first class boat can when handled by man that knows how.
 The weather was perfect, not a cloud, and tho the sea was a bit lumpy going out no one was sick and all were able 10 enjoy MT McTavish's skill as cook. Captain Treirschield did have trouble with the mush as he had forgotten to take strainer. The trip home was made by way of Hot Springs and all returned with light hearts but dark faces as the sun at this time of year is a great Tanner, and tho they lad a merry Chase Mrs Schuknecht kept all in Toon by keeping them well supplied with vegetables principally Kale, and a happier crowd would be hard to find as they landed at the s.

The Greatest Real Clothing Bargains
 Bridgeport Ever Saw.


 They'll be ushered in Saturday. Jan. 9th, at the Berger Dry Goods Co.,, cor ner Main and Golden Hill streets. Our advertisement elsewhere in these col umns, tells of the phenomenal chances for saving money upon the newest and best fall and winter suits, cloaks, waists, millinery, etc., etc. Think of on every single stitch of apparel in the store-$2O,O 900 worth of fine, reasonable clothing must be disposed of-profits entirely lost sight of-a 5e per cent. saving to you. Do not let such a gold en opportunity for saving slip by; these real bargains will go as dry grass be- fore flames, so decide and act now. The city says, "vacate," that is the only reason for these sensa tionally low prices-a legitimate reason for reduc- ing prices, as we've only a limited time to sell everything-for the build ing is soon to be torn down. The store is closed to-day preparing and mark ing down the stock in readiness for the record breaking value giving, which starts to-day. We are ready to serve you with the finest winter apparel and save dollars for you. Buy for pres ent as well as future needs-the great est and best clothing values in town await you here-an inspection will prove our claims. Dollars do double duty and more at Berger's Main St., and Golden Hill. Everybody wei come. Be on hand early.

Thinks Boys Are Useful.
Some boys are inclined to tell lies,
steal, and do many other bad
things. Others rob banks and kill
people. Boys are very useful. They
can work when they will, but most
of them dislike work Many of
them think they have more work to
do than girls, but I don It think they
do. " A boy works from sun to sun,
while a girls work is never done. F."

Sweet as Home Made Candy.
| think girls are the sweetest
things on earth. They are as sweet as

sweet that sugar runs out of their

From a Texas Girl.
Boys are generally curiosities
They'd rather go to baseball game
on Sunday in ducking rig than to Sun
day school in fine clothes. Their
thinkers are about equal to Baalam's
mules. They usually join the church
their mothers belong to, and are
Democrats or Republicans because
their daddies are. AS a rule they
think more of their creed or party
than they do Of truth or principle.
Dottie Wood, Holland, Texas, aged
II.
From North Carolina Boy.
Most girls are very pretty and
sweet apparently, though most of
them are very deceiving. We all
know that Adam was deceived by
Eve, nor was he the last one that has
been deceived. The gossipping girl
hasn't an equal. She is the worst foe
to society. From time to time boys
have tried to know girls, but their
points are as numerous as a buzzsaw's.
Walter Frederick johnson, Grifton,
N. c., aged 10.
From louisiana Girl
| think most boys have a DISPOSE
ton to be rough, and they deserve
more sympathy. Don't think because
he is a boy that anything is good
enough for him. If it was not for
the boys, the world would be at a
standstill. Some Of our greatest men
were once rough boys. I think they
would all be good if they could see
themselves as other people see them.
Cornelia Wilks, Alexton, La, aged IA.
From a Florida Boy.
Deer Sur: Girls is funny animals,
isn't they, I do think. They like
dolls and hats and other silly things.
| have a sister like that. A lady
asked me if | liked girls, and | said,
81 like 'em all right, but they is
certainly funny" When a girl
asked me, "Do you belong to Miss
Jones?" / told her, Gus don It belong
to she; her don't belong to we,'' and
she LATED; / don't know why.
Lesley Stewart, Jacksonville, Fla,

TO CHANGE WORK HOURS
TO GET MORE DAYLIGHT

CINCINNATI, o., May 5.-Prominent
Cincinnatians are interesting themselves
in a national movement to change bust
ness hours during the summer months
after the fashion which is in vogue in
England and which makes the day be-
gin two hours earlier during the summer
than it does during the other months of
the year.
Circulars explaining the system in de-
tail and the benefits claimed for it are
being distributed.
Former Mayor Julius Fleischmann,
President c. H. NJ. Atkins, of the Bust
ness Mems club; Charles ]. Christie and
others are planning a dinner in the near
future at which the. subject will be dis
cussed.
The plan as suggested in the circular
provides that each year on May l, the
standard time of the United States be
advanced two hours and continue thus
until October 1. In this way, 1t is in
tended that persons who start to work at
II o'clock in the morning during the other
months shall begin their day at O'Clock
in the summer months, and end it two
hours earlier. the plan giving them two
hours of daylight for their recreation.
