magazines an article on building brair

ELEVEN MUMMlES FOUND.
Remains Of Cherry Victims Remark.
ablv Preserved


Cherry, III. - Eleven more bodies
OF miners were rescued from the ST.
Paul coal mine. To the amazement
of veteran mine inspectors, the bodies
entombed since last Nov. 10, when
brought to the surface, were found
to be almost perfectly mummified.
The mummified condition was
brought about by the bodies having
for three months been in a part of
the mine which was dry and warm
and the bodies going through a slow
process of drying up.
This is one of the most remark
able incidents of a disaster which has
been full of wonders" declared an
old mine inspector. THE mummies
are in such good preservation that
they might have been taken out of
the ancient tombs of Egypt"
Fighting through fire and the deadly
black damp which ever since the dis
aster stood between them and the 165
or more bodies still entombed in the
mine. the rescuers found the eleven
bodies in what is known as the second
level They were about IT'S feet from
the main air shaft. The men, instead
OF retreating to remoter parts of the
mine. evidently had made a desperate
EFFORT to escape when the fire broke
out, and they were among the first to
die.

CATHOLIC COLLEGE BURNS
Main Building Of Columbus College
is Totally Destroyed

Chamberlain, S. D., Feb. 22-The
main building Of Columbes college To-
Gated in this city was totally destroy
ed by fire at an early hour Sunday
morning, entaling a loss of $4,000 on
the building and more than $4,000 on
the contents and furnishings There
was not a dollar of insurance The
cause of the fire is not known, but it
started apparently in the southwest
corner. When discovered at O'Clock
by a wakeful student. such headway
had already been made that there was
difficulty on the part of some OF the
inmates to escape. Father GOulette,
musical instructor, was rescued from
an upper window. where he had been
hanging for few minutes.
None succeeded in saving their per-
sonal effects The library. including
81 800 worth Of books donated by
Bishop O'Gorman, was destroyed with
the other contents.
The college lies outside the reach
of the local fire department. and 1t
was found that the college water sys-
tenn hydrants were frozen so that wa
ter could not be turned on the flames
All those present cOHld do was to
watch the flames destroy the magnif-
icent building.
This building was the principal one
of a group purchased last MINER
from the United States by Bishop
O'GOrman for Catholic society for
the establishment Of a Catholic college
for South Dakota The price paid was
$36 900. College courses were opened
last fall, and the attendance has been
growing since at very sat sfactory
rate. Father Sarprenant. the p"esi-
dent has closed the college for one
week in order to properly furnish 9th
er buildings OF the group for the con
tinuance of the work While plans
for the restoration of the turred
building have not yet heen fully de-
veloped, it is certain that the work
will be carried on without interruption
further than that Of the coming week.
Already several lodges OF knights Of
Columbus have telegraphed cOntr'bl- l.
tions to assist.

cherished weapon in his public service
as national legislator and the keen
edge of which he enlivened many
debates of union-wide interest in con-
gress.
This is the second stroke of paraly-
sis to seize the southern senator the
first having occurred nearly two years
ago, when he suffered nervous
breakdown. At that time he was
treated at an Atlanta sanitarium and
took a trip later for the benefit of
his health.
DR.. William White, of the govern
ment hospital for the insane was call
ed into consultation with DR.. PickfOrd
While it was asserted that hte SEN
ator's mind was fairly alert, Dr.

The verdict was that the senator s
condition was serious in the extreme
that the outcome was doubtful, and
that it would require 70 hours to say
whether the case was hopeless.

THE STORY OF THE PEANUT
SHELLS.

AS everyone knows, c. w. Post OF
Battle Creek. Michigan. is not only
maker of breakfast foods, but he Is a
strong individual who believes that the
desuniOns are a menace to the lib
erty of the country.
Believing this, and being a natural
born" scrapper for the right, as he
sees it, Post, for several years past,
has been engaged in a ceaseless war
fare against The Labor Trust as he
likes to call 1t.
Not being able to secure free and
untrammeled expression of his opin-
ions on this subject through the regular
reading pages of the newspapers he
has bought advertising space for this
purpose, just as he is accustomed TO
for the telling of his Postum STORY.
and he has thus spent hundreds OF
thousands of dollars in denouncing
trades-uniOnism.
AS a result of Posts activities the
people now know a whole lot about
these organizations: how they are
honeycombed with graft, how they OBJ
struct the development of legitimate
business, curtail labOr's output, hold
up manufacturers, graft upon their own
membership, and rob the public. Natu
rally Post is hated by the trades
uniOnists, and intensely.
He employs no union labor, so they
can not call out his men, and he defies
their efforts at boycotting his products.
The latest means of getting" Post is
the widespread publication of the story
that car which was recently wrecked
in transmission was found to be loaded
with empty peanut shells, which were
being shipped from the south to Posts
establishment at Battle Creek
This canard probably originated with
President John Fitzgerald of the Chi
cago Federation of Labor, who, it is
said, stated it publicly as truth.
Post comes back and gives Fitz-
gerald the lie direct. He denounces
Fitzgera,a's statement as a deliberate
ialsehood, an underhanded and coward
ly attempt to injure his business, hav-
ing not the slightest basis in fact AS
such an effort it must be regarded. 1t
Is significant that this statement about
the peanut shells" is being given wide
newspaper publicity In the patent
inside" of an eastern country paper
find it, and the inference naturally is
that labor-unionites are insidiously
spreading this lie
An institution (Or NAM which
will resort to moral intimidation and
to physical force, that will destroy ma

MAIN and kill If necessary to effect its
ends, naturally would not hesitate to
spread falsehood for the same pur-
poses.
We admire Post. While we have no
enmity toward labor unions, SO long as
they are conducted in an honest, live
and-letlive" kind of a way. We have had
enough OF the tarred end of the stick
to sympathize thoroughly with what ne
