400 ARE STILL EN-
 TOMBED IN MINE
Experts Penetrate Shaft to Distance of 300 Feet, But All Efforts at Recov-
 cry Are Abandoned Until Today

Cherry, Ill. Nov. 14.-Nearly 400 Hlsh and boys it is now believed arg dead or perishing in the St.
 'u'n2 explosion though ex- p-FtS who succeeded in penetrate ing the smoke filled shaft to q 1epth of 300 feet late today re- 'ornN1 With a ray Of hope for the grief stricken relatives of the vic- tins.
 That the fire has been extips. guished was the conclusion of mining experts and inspectors sent here by Gov. Deneen to investigate ths calamity and it's cause. For more than 30 hours the prisoners have been subjected to smoke fi!le5 veins. That life could exist under the terrible conditions is doubted by many but because no trace of high temperature was found in the depth of the mine todatN friends of the miners and even officials of the company have hope that some of the victims may have found safety in the re- mote' recesSes of the mine
 A. J. Earring, president of the Chicago, Milwaukee, and St. Paul Tee road Co.,, who has not slept sincS arriving on the scene of the catastrophe received an encourag- v report after heroic efforts had been made today to open the mine for the release of tthe en- to mbeh men or the discovery Of thN much feared mass of dead.
 From the son of one of the missi- ing miners. John Reed, the railroad president. heard that a concussion oN the earth had been heard by farmers half a mile south of the main shaft
 Il have heard signals from the men," young Reed said excitedly.
 Farmers whose land is over the southern end of the mine also felt several concussions of the earth this afternoon. There were sev- era} shocks and the men who felt them are convinced that they wer shots fired by the imprisoned min~ -ers to signal to the people above that they were still alive.
 Do they mean that, or that the miners have decided to end their agony?" asked the president. 'I have heard of eases where the miners had ended their torture III such a manner. Still it would not be possible, were those men alive, that they would resort to such a thing so soon."
 This glmmer of light to the darkened homes Of Cherry tonight followed other encouraging theos ries of somc of the experts which were encouraging, that the en- tOmbPd hundreds may not have been suffocated and that oxygen enc ugh remains in the veins to keep them alive until the shafts ,av be reopened. the draft fans put in operation and rescuelng parties sent into the dark re- cesses of the mine.
 After the third attempt to ex- plore the conditions late today, k. Y. Williams of Urbanna, ILL, of the United States Geographical Survey who superintended the work of volunteer explorers pro- tected with oxygen caps and ap-
 aratus, telegraphed to Urbana for more of the apparatus.

the refreshments disappearing, ana Ills Honor was heard to say to Dr. D1ron: Say Doc. if they'er not careful I shall have to serve Tn my official capacity as coroner" but he too guessed wrong, and everything went me rrily on. Af- ter while the Dr. and the Judge got into the refreshmeht room and the way those two made ice cream and cake vanish was 'jes scand'lous" |" Thsy don't regret going.
 While refreshments were being ssrvea. MT. James Foley. the floor manager, announ ced that MT. Albert Clark would play cornet solo selec- tion entitled "Annie Laurie" MT Clark was stationed upon hill short distance from the pavilion, and the way he rendered that sweet old song, showed he was a cornetist of more than ordinary ability. He was given A long, hearty applause. Some few thou ght it was our old friend George Clarke; but they were mistaken. George has been known to toot his horn, but nothing like that solo. This little musical treat was one of the feat ures of the evening.
 If anyone received an invitation and did not go they do not know what , they missed. The writer would like to give; complete list of the names of those present, but that would be al | most impossible, as there were many | present who were unknown to the writer. I believe one hundred and fifty would be conservative estimate of the number present.
 The feast was served at midnight, which consisted of barbecue meat, bread. cheese, sandwiches. pie and coffee. and the manner in which it was made to disappear was ample evidence that It was enjoyed.
 | The. music was furnished by the | Nogales string band, which hardly had breathing spell. It was just 4 a. m. | when the sweet strains of "Home, sweet home," died away. Then came the parting and I think by the many words of thanks of the departing guests to the host and hostess for the even ing's enjoyment, showed the IF efforts were appreciated. and as the guests left for their homes, maybe some lat fatigued. they left knowing they had 8 way up time.

Sioux Falls, S. d., Dec. 10.-A cor
oner's jury which investigated the re-
cent tragic death of Isaac Clark, an
aged resident of Custer county, re-
turned a verdict to the effect that the
old man committed suicide by shoot
ing himself with rifle. A son testi-
fed before the coroner's jury that his
father had threatened suicide at diff
ferent times, and that in July last he
made an attempt to drown himself
while at Hermosa. but was rescued by
his son and another man, who for
tunately appeared upon the scene in
time to save the old mans life. The
rifle with which Clark ended his life
belonged to himself, and had been
concealed for several days before the
shooting, he having refused to produce
the weapon when his son demanded
to know where it was. The old man
shot and killed himself about l o'clock
in the morning, having quietly made
his way from the house to a nearby
gulch, where the deed was committed
The son heard the shot and, discover
ing the absence of his father from his
room, secured the assistance of sever
al other men and found the body Of
the old man lying in the gulch. The

FINALLY RATiFY MARRIAGE.
Raise Daughter to Womanhood and
Then Learn Marriage is invalid.


Lincoln, Dec. 10.-After twenty
eight years of married life and be-
coming the parents of a daughter now
23 years old Willard f. Hascall and
his wife, of Lincoln, discovered that
the woman had never been lawfully
divorced from her first husband. They
called on County Judge Cosgrove and
had the ceremony performed. This
time it was a valid one, as less than
month ago the woman's first hus-
band, Stephen V. Gerard, died. De-
tails that were made public at the
time of his death revealed to the Has
calls for the first time the fact that
their union was invalid in the eyes of
the law.
Hascall is a contractor, and lived
in Lincoln for quarter of century.
She was young girl, about 20, when
she married Gerard. Differences arose
and she returned home to her father
While there Gerard and his attorney
visited her and induced her to begin
action for divorce in a county in
which neither was resident. The
decree was granted and ignorant that
it was invalid, she later married Has
call. Four lawyers were called into
the case and they advised remar
riage. The couple will take no honey
moon journey.
