Whitcwashine Coal.

WhItewashing coal is not done to

neither improves nor harms the fuel
1t Is a detective scheme on the part of
the railroads TO locate and prevent
theft of the coal as 1t is hauled from
the mines TO the consumer These
depredations amount to thousands Of
tons annually. and the railroads are
the sufferers, as it is up to them to
deliver as many tons at their destina-
tion. often n thousand miles away, as
were weighed in when the car was
turned over for transportation.
Two or three tons may be removed
from a carload containing forty tons
without attracting attention to its de-
creased quantity until the car is again
placed on the scales. To locate the
loss limewater Is sprayed over train
load of coal. In a short time the wa
ter has evaporated, leaving a load OF
white coal. Then removal of any coal
leaves big black spot, which is

year.
Both are inveterate golf players,

on the bench and as cabinet officers.
Harmon having been attorney general
in Cleveland's second administration.
They are devoted friends of many
years standing. Harmon is Jud to

Despite their political differences.
each has crowcd over the advancement
of the other. though Harmon supported
Bryan against Taft In the 1908 cam
paign. and of course Taft was sorry
politically when Harmon was elected
governor OF Ohio that year over the
Republican candidate.
Harmon. In fact, gave Taft his first
opportunity for jurists career when
he resigned in 1887 from the superior
court bench at Cincinnati Governor
Foraker appointed Taft. then n young
ster of thirty. to the vacancy, and
Judge Harmon returned to the practice
OF the law.
Governor Harmon is nearly sixty
four years old. Should he become pres
ident In 1918 he will be, with the sin
gle exception OF William Henry Har-
rison, who served only one month be-
fore his death. the Oldest chief execu-
tive in the history of the nation.
Ex-Governor Glenn undoubtedly

that all miners temporarily imprisoned
in gas poisoned chambers may be en-
abled to breathe life sustaining oxygen
until they can be brought to the sur
face by the heroes of this new rescue
work. The rescue corps doubtless will
take its place In popular approval
alongside the United States life saving
service. which rcscues thousands every
year from death by shipwreck.
The apparatus employed by the mine
rescuers is similar to that worn by
deep sea divers. Over the head is
placed Il helmet. air tight, and upon his
back the rescuer carries a tank con-
tanning enough oxygen to last him two
or three hours. a tube carries the
oxygen into the helmet. The impuri-
ties in the breath as it is expelled are
absorbed by a small quantity of po-
tassium hydroXide carried In sepa-
rate tank. The nitrogen in the air re-
naming In the helmet after tho rescuer
puts 1T on above ground serves to d.
lutte the oxygen sufficiently.
Wearing this apparatus, the reScuer
can pass without peril through dense
smoke. fire damp, natural gas. coal dust
or the deadly black damp which killed
so many of the miners at Cherry.
Each rescuer carries an extra tank of
oxygen for the resuscitation OF victims,
mouthpiece Is fitted over the faco of
the man who Is overcome by foul air
OF any kind. A trained man induces
artificial respiration by compelling the
body movements employed In the case
OF a drowning person, and the exhila-
rating oxygen passes into the lungs,
reyivifying the victim.
1t is the object of the government
not only to train men for this rescue
work at the several stations now In
operation and to be established. but
also to instruct groups of miners at the
various mine centerS, so that there Will
be always above ground some men who
can put on the life saving apparatus
and descend to the rescue of their
comrades at a moments notice. Sew
eral miners at Cherry. who had but
few hours instruction In the use of
the apparatus, went down and helped
to rescue the twenty survivors.
The rescue corps of the United States
geological survey is of very recent
origin. Congress appropriated s150.00o
in July, 1908, for the investigation of
the causes of mine disasters and the
formulation of remedies. Out of that
appropriation grow the rescue corps.
now only in the infancy OF its eftl-
cheney. Seven hundred lives were lost
through explosions in four coal mines
in December. 1907. The agitation fol-
lowing these catastrophes led to the
establishment of the governments
rescue service.
A few figures win show the impera-
tive demand for such a work. In 1906.
according fo aaolo1ical StIryav Statiq-
tics, 2.061 coal miners were killed and
1900 were injured. The record for
1907 was S.125 killed and $500 in
jured- In 1908 tho deaths were 2.45o.

Englishmen have been practically
