THE WINNING OF WALTER,
BY Stuart B. Stone. =


In Ham city@the burning question
of the hour was. who would secure
the fastidious and fascinating Wal
, ter Alonzo Africanus Jones. You
could hear the buzz of it over the
| wash tubs, in the Union Central
meeting house. and around the door
steps and heartstones where the
stwinkling pickaninnies played.
Mr.. Jones was in truth a man of
thousand talents. He had been a
ballad singing end-man, he had
walked for hundred cakes, he had
extracted the golden tip on luxur-
ious Pullman cars. He was, in
short, the fashion plate. Chester
field and Beau Brummel of Ham
city. and he knew his worth.
The widest snares were laid for
him. Maidens sighed in his pres,
ence, sent him valentines, dallied
along his homeward path. But
Walter Alonzo, skilled in the great
heart-way of the world, remained
immune. He might escort Caroline
Ann Stephens to the ice cream
social at the Independent Baptist
church, or he might call upon
Lydia Belle Cunningham and sing
in his best tenor his famous hits
from "The Sultan of San," but
with these concessions the matter
ended. And while the femme
element of Ham city pinned and the
masculine element lowered, Walter
AlonzO remained immune.
The heart campaign was brisk,
however, and the knowing among
the elders and mammies predicted
the race would narrow to three
cornered heat between Caroline
Ann Stephens, Lydia Belle Gun
bingham and Malina Aarabella Cor
nelia Sims, comprising the most Sc
lect of Ham city society. Caroline
Ann coquetted; Lydia Belle sighed
and Malina Aarabella Unanswered
but Walter AlOnzo remained I'M
caught. 1t was like to be a long
three-cornered race
The matter came Unexpectedly
to head when Walter Alonzo an
nounced to Caroline Ann:
Miss Car'line Ann, yoh all know
how yoh done been flirtin' and CO.
quettalin' round dis hyeh cullud
chile mighty long time"
ooh, Walter Alonzo." cried Earpi
line Ann, wishing the others might
see.
We'll, l been thinkin' right
smaht bout yoh qualifimacationin's
an the qualifimacationin's ofsdsse
hyeh other ladies', Lyddy Belle an,
Malina Bella" continued M;
Jones. u
ooh, Walter Alonzo." graaned
Caroline Ann.
Il done been an decided fer to
conduct a washamability contest,S
pursued Walter Alonzo. II
Fer de Lawd's sake-an' what's
a washamability contest?" '
"A washamability contest Is a
perceedln' wherein young ladies
of de right qualifimacationin's en-
deavors to execute de most washin
in a given time, so as to demon
strate the ability to properly sup
poht a german of leisure" declared
Walter Alonzo.
Fer mussy's sake." shrieked
Caroline Ann, and went forth with
| the news.
On the day appointed for the
great contest the largest crowd In
the history of Ham city assembled
Caroline Ann, Lydia Belle and Nal
ina Arabella were on hand, eager
i and nervous. Walter AlonzC

TWELVE men DEAD
IN UNDERGROUND
HORROR
MINERS IN LAWSON MINE, NEAR
SEATTLE, ARE CAUGHT az
EXPLOSIONS,

Seattle, Nov. 6.-TWo explosions, oc-
curing within a few minutes of each
other, shortly before O'Clock this
morning, resulted in tho death of IL
men in the Lawson mine at Black
Diamond, 80 miles southeast of Seattle,
seven men going down on shift and
five men coming up were caught be-
tween the first and sixth levels and 1t
is almost certain that all perished
Natural gas combustion is assigned as
the cause. All the men were foreign
ers.
The force of the explosions was ter
rifle, showers of earth, timbers and
bits of clothing, believed to be that
of the miners, being blown from the
slope of the mine. Timbers measur-
ing 16 inches thick and eight feet
long were blown half mile. A big
section of steam pipe was blown
a similar distance and sank Is feet
in the ground. The shock of the ex-
plosion, which was felt for miles
around, was so great that many
thought there had been an earthquake.
AS soon as the extent of the disaster
was known volunteers We're assembled
and rescue parties were sent in on the
water level to attempt the rescue of
any miners who might be alive. 1t
is not believed that any of the men
in the slope escaped instant death.
AS far as known the u men in the
tram cars We're the only ones in the
mine at the time of the explosions.
The coal mines at Black Diamond are
owned by the Pacific Coast company
The only cause mine officials are able
to assign for the explosion is that
fissure of gas may have opened and
the gas ignited from a match struck by
a workman in the cage ascending to
the surface.
