DEATHS GRIM WORK
IN ONE MONTH

Death in all its worst forms has
stalked over the face of the earth dur
ing the last month, leaving in its wake
trail of mangled and charred bodies
Its pail has been no respecter of per
sons, and has descended alike on young
factory girls, men who work beneath
the surface of the earth and men whose
occupation in life is to fight flames
and protect the property of others.
Accompanying each disaster is an en-
ormous property loss, coupled with the
fact that here and there over the coun-
try hospitals are giving shelter to Grip
pied and manned human beings A
vast army of mourners stands with
bowed heads, weeping for those who
have been taken from them-an army
whose ranks are plentifully dotted
with helpless women, aged parents and
suffering children.
On November 26 last the wires of
the country flashed the news that
and that the lives of several factory
girls were in danger. A few minutes
elapsed and then the world was startl-
ed by the news that thirty lives had
been claimed by the flames and smoke.
A catastrophe that brought the ser
iousness of accident nearer Oklahoma
occurred on November 2S when four
teen men lost their lives in a mine at
Antlers, OKLA which disaster was fol
lowed on December IA by the killing
of ten miners in Colorado.
An explosion of Illuminating gas oc-
Cured in New York city power house
on December 19-ten dead was the
news flashed out as result of that
accident.
Two days afterward the word came
from over the Atlantic that an explo-
sion had occurred in a mine at Bolton,
England, and that more than three hun
dred men were in the mine. Additional
news revealed the fact that all, 322
miners, perished, and workmen are
now engaged in taking the bodies from
the pit.
The same day, December 81, three
persons lost their lives in a fire in Gin
cinnati, and the next day a fire III
Philadelphia claimed fifteen known
victims, while others are believed to
be buried in the ruins.
And the latest, the fire at the Chi
Fcago packing house, is still raging,
more than twenty persons are dead,
scores are injured, and the country
awaits with fear the results of this
blaze Firemen are working desper-
ately, giving their life and limb, that
the property and lives of others be
saved.
About four hundred lives is the total
of the above named disasters. Many
|others have been injured in wrecks
Throughout the world, not to mention
the number of killed and wounded in
the uprisings in Mexico and Brazil.
Ships from across the Pacific bring
reports that thousands are dead from
famine and violence in China. The
highways, according to reports, are
dotted with the dead and dying, while
murder, robbery and pestilence is
rampant
Floods in Alaska battles in Turkey
Istreet fights in Odessa-all contribute
their appalling shares to the death list
