Many Killed.

Seven already dead aud several more
hoverii between life and death in the
various hospitals is the result OF wreck
10 Kalamazoo last Saturday night, when
Michigan Central train crashed into a
street car at the East Avenue crossing.
The car was returning from down town
at about 1920 and was well filled, con-
tanning thirty two persons. On APP
preaching the crossing the street car
conductor ran ahead of the car and see-
ing no train approaching, signaled for
the motorman to proceed. When the
car reached the track, however, an ex-
press train going at seemingly 60 miles
an hour, struck the forward end of the
street car instantly killing the motor
man and several others Ambulances
we're pressed into service and the injured

The coroner's jury after a two days

COAL WORKERS. WALk.ouT FIN
ALLY SETTLED AT CHICAGO
CONFERENCE.
TWO YEARS PEACE SURE
Union Gets Lions Share Of Demands
Peoria Scale Adopted - Work
to Be Resumed Saturday In
Mines that are Ready.

Chicago, Ill.-Industrial peace for
at least two years has been re-
stored in the Illinois coal mines.
After five months of stubborn con-
flict, unmarked by any acts of ex.
treme violence, the operators and min
ers have agreed to bury their differ
ences and to resume operation of the
mines. In the settlement, the miners
got the lions share of the demands,
only some minor details having been
changed. The full scale of wages
and prices set by the Peoria conveii.
tion will be paid by the operators.
The settlement was reached at u
conference between committee of
operators and the executive board of
the Illinois miners. The operators
protested that the agreement was un.
just and Harry N. Taylor withdrew
from the committee rather than agree
to it.
The wage increase, together with
the safety appliances which the op.
orators must install in compliance
with the recently enacted law, will

cost of coal production In the state.
Inequalities of mining rates, com.
pared with those of other states, OF
which the Illinois operators complain
ed at the beginning of the strike,
have been increased. throwing the
mine owners still further out of line
in competition with the operators OF
Indiana and Ohio. The payment OF
the wages of shot-firers against which
the operators have contended since
the law went into effect five years
ago, forms the heaviest burden they
will have to pay as the price of their
defeat
The Illinois operators from the be.
ginnig offered to pay the national de-
mands and settle on the same terms
as did the operators in western Penn
sylvania, Ohio, Indiana and Iowa, but
the offer was rejected by the miners.
When the negotiations were broken
off, President J. II. Walker of the
Illinois miners ordered out the engt
neers and pump men who were left
at work to protect the property.

WOMAN AND THE PIN.

II was in a deductive way that the
captain found out that Ethel Clare
lie Neve, the supposed accomplice OF
DR.. Crippen, was girl though she
was dressed in boys togs. She had
supplied missing trousers button
with a safety pin. The method was
entirely feminine, says Cleveland
Leader. A boy would have borrowed
a marline spike or a nail, or whitfield
a wooden peg. This dramatic use OF
the safety pin again focuses the at
tention on womans marvellous capac-
fly as a pinster. Give her hat pin
and she can alright footpad or lure
olives from long-necked bottle,
with equal ease. She makes 1t deco
rauve, too. and deadly. In a crowd
ed street car 1t Is as fearsome
weapon as the kris of Malay rum
ming a-muck. But her chief record Is
made with the common or garden pin.
She fastens buttons or shoes with it
and when baby swallows the rattle,
lharpoons that out with a pin. If a
tornado blows and the shingles are
threatened she crawls out on the roof
and pins them down. Writers of
those fascinating summer stories In
which man and a lovely girl are cast
away on South sea island miss the
chance of their lives when they do
not provide the heroine with paper
of pins as her salvage from the
wreck
