the dead. Wives and children of the
entombed men surround the entrance
begging the rescuers to hurry.
The explosion is believed to have
been caused by an accumulation Of gas

lamp belonging to n of the miners.
Late reports declare fire has broken
out in the mine, and frantic efforts are
being made to get aid to the impris-
oned men. 1t is declared the draft
fans at the entrance were shattered
by the explosion, SO great was Its
force.

Buried Alive.

In the early history of Japan 1t was
decidedly a dubious honor to be close
ly related to any person of note, for
of the laws at that time decreed
that when a person of rank or impor-
lance died II the immediate relatives
must be buried alive In a perpendicu-
lar position around the personage's
grave. Their heads were left above
the earth, and thus they remained I'M
til welcome death came to free them.

w men the IfSl census WAS tdhSii,
says the Record, commenting upon
the tendency to leave the farm, our
population was 5,929.214, of whom
only 131,472 live in towns. In 1900
the population was 75,477,457, and no
less than 21,992,199 lived in places OF
5000 inhabitants and over. The cen
sus of his year Will show that the
rural districts have rarely gained as
much as 20 per cent, While most of
the towns have gained that or more,
some running up as high as 90 per
cent"
It will be observed that the gain be
tween 1870 and 1880 vas only two per
cent. whereas in the next decade the
increase to town was seven per cent.
The trcnd will be shack to the farm
when farming is more profitable than
city employment and when conditions
of living in the country are more sat
isfactorv. Already better methods Of
farming and better transportation IA
%cilities max farming more profitable,
and better schools, better roads, tele-
phones and rural delivery are making
better conditions for living in the
country.
In the early days. the laws of the
country were written so That aSrlcul-
ture, and manufacturing
all had equal treatment. Later the
laws imposed heavy taxes on the 9th

GUT OUT WAREHOUsEME
FARMERS UNION OF St3RRy To
ERECT OWN WAREHOUSE AND
PRIZE HOUSES At Mt. AIRY.

Mount Airy, Aug. 17.-Quite a stir
was caused in this city by the report
that the Farmers Union had decided
to erect their storage and dry
priZerieS at Arrarat station, six miles
from this place, and the business
men Of Mount Airy got together and
offered inducements sufficient to bring
the enterprise here. On Monday. at
a called meeting for the purpose Of
locating the dry-prizery, a large dele
cation from this city presented Mt.
Airy's claims and secured the storage
and prizery. This means much for
TINS city. so your correspondent is in
formed, but for he life of us we can
not see it tina way. 1t just means
that the rme Will hereafter dry
and place in hogsheads the crop in
stead Of others doing it. The Amer
lean Tobacco Company Will continue
TO buy the crop and work it and the
leaf obacco warehouses Will be
closed and the -warehousemen engage
in other business.
This change Will help the farmer,
because they p to hold for
higher prices. If they renain firm
and all pun together they viii in
cas- the price from 4 to 6 cents
average on the entire crop. But, the
warehouses, they will all go out Of
business and the job printers will lose
a big slug Of printing heretofore used
by W~arehousenlen. SO, in helping
one class another Will be hurt. But
the world goes hat way.
