of Life.
Linton, Ind, Sept. 15.-One dead,
one fatally injured and five seriously
hurt is the result of gas explosion
caused by miners defective lamp in
Vandalia mine No. 10, nine miles from

There were 800 men at work, but
they had just been changed to another
part of the mine and this fact alone

Relief parties, including practically
all the doctors in Linton, hurried to
the mine, as the first reports had it
that more than score were dead and

Tho Serpent's Venom.

A physician while talking with a
group of friends remarked: 1T is CON-
mon to hear people speak about poi
sonous serpents. Serpents are never
poisonous: they are venomous. A
poison cannot be taken internally with
out bad effects: venom can. Venoms
to be effective have to be injected di-
rectly into the circulation. and this is
the manner in which the snake kills.
Their venom taken internally is in
nocuous."

The oft-made statement that success on

futed by the career of Vera Michellena,
the young prima dOna of THE Girl in the

at the age of IS, playing the soubrette role
OF Princess Chic right from the start.
Within three months she was the prima

then-a brief space OF nine years-she has
played only prima donna roles in metro
politan companies.
The fact that Miss Michelena did not

largely to her early training. She is the
daughter of Fernando Michelena, the one

Der of card envelopes, and on the flap of
eachone sew hook and eye TO show the
size and color within. Put these envelopes
neatly in small box and your miserable

separate holders for cards OF hooks and
eyes, detached ones that have not been
used and for those that have not been
ripped from dress, as is the habit of some

Small boxes with the hook sewed or

envelope but take up more room and are

Hidalgo issued edict and attached grave
penalties for the offenders, he was powerless

to the manufacture of for his troops
and the minting of the silver bars, from the
many mines in that vicinity, which had been

Meanwhile the government prepared to
combat the revolution and through the medi-

On the eighth of October Hidalgo COM
menced his march to Valladolid, intending at
first to attack Queretaro. Hearing of his COM
ing, the authorities of Valladoid deserted the
city and the army of insurgents was received
by the citizens with great ovation.
On October 10 Hidalgo marched toward
Mexico City and was met at Las Cruces by
the royalist forces under command OF Leuten-
ant Colonel Trujllo, who surrounded by
the insurgents and forced TO cut mis- way

General Calleja had left San Luis Potosi with
reinforcements. The retreating insurgents
and Callejas forces met at Aculco; the for

baggage and artillery. Hidalgo, with reduced
forces, retired to Valladolid, while Allende,S
posted himself at Guanajuato and was at

great loss in killed and wounded.
Hidalgo, meanwhile, repaired to Guadala-

city. Here he organized form of government
with Ignacio Lopez Rayon as secretary general.
In January, 1911, Hidalgo moved from

The Rinnest Excursion.

The biggest railroad excursion in
the world probably is that of the en-
ployees of Bass & Co., the English
brewers. Once year the firm treats
It's employees and their families to
trip to the seashore. They were
taken this year from Burton-on-Trent
to Scarborough, on the east coast, a
distance of 134 miles, where they
spent the day. Twenty trains were
required to transport the 5000 men,
women and children from Burton to
Scarborough.
In addition to the days outing the
cost of which was borne by the firm,
each employee received days wages.
These excursions were inaugurated 40
years ago, when two special trains
were sufficient to carry Bass 900 en-
ployees and their families to Liv-
erpool.
Another English firm, Lever & Co.,
the soapmakers, give their employees
an annual excursion and sometimes
have taken their men as far from Liv-
erpool as Paris. The outing is con-
fined to the employees alone. Their
families do not participate in it.
