CANON CITY, Colo, Nov 20
Miners caught in the workings of the
Fremont mine of the Colorado Fuel

in an underground mule stable late
yesterday afternoon, were hoisted to

air shaft which offers the only way
Of rescue.
More than 160 reached the surface,
and mine officials declare that all but
two of the men employed under
ground have been communicated with
and are known to be safe. 1t is
hoped these two also are safe. About
200 men were at work in the shaft.
The fire has been driven to the
main haulage shaft by ventilating air
currents, and the main shaft is now
burning fiercely. Many of the min

forts of liquor interests to entrench

East Atchison, which has been cred

boasts eight liquor houses. Plans to
locate breweries in East Atchison
set on foot an inquiry which resulted
in claim that the Missouri river

A heavy squal hau shut in around the
presidential squadron, the weather be-

hardly see ships length ahead.
The storm was brief. and as it
cleared the German ship was cutting
directly across the Tennessee's bows
not quarter of mile away. The
helm of the Tennessee was put hard
over. The Freya continued on her
course. There was no exchange of
signals.
The president passed three hours at
Guantanamo Saturday, inspecting the
American naval base and the rifle
ranges. 1t was the first time an
American president had set foot on
the Island of Cuba The territory
visited by Mr.. Taft is under Ameri-
can sovereignty.
Monday morning brought the only
disagreeable weather of the voyage.
Off the North Florida coast the cruis-
ers ran into the tail-end of cyclone
disturbance. The sea was very rough
and for hours the cruisers were ship
ping water over their forecastles.
Speed was reduced almost to moth.

tered down and ventiIators and all
other gear lashed to the deck. The
height of the storm was passed about
500 a. M, and the sea did not mod
crate until well toward noon.

DOG GIVEN IMPRESSIVE
BURIAL IN REAL COFFIN
Sultan, Life Saver and Pet of Mount
Vernon Man, Has Funeral
In Ohio

NEW YORK, Feb. 19.-There is an
interesting history connected with Sui
tan, a. French poodle, which was buried
In q satin-lined metallic coffin in a
private burying ground at Canton, O.,
Saturday, by Fl. p. Snyder, the owner
who resides at Mount Vernon, N. Y.
Mr. Snyder and his friend, H. D.
ments at 115 Crary avenue, Mount Yer
non, and they are dog lovers.
Sultan was 10 years old and was be-
loved by both men. The animal was
formerly owned by Christman, and he
presented him to Snyder following a
| fire at Overlook street, when, after
Christman. had rescued their four
French poodles, Sultan had dashed
back itno the burning house In search
of Snyder.
A few years ago Sultan saved Mr.
Snyder's sister from death in fire in
her home in Ohio. The dog was down
stairs when the flames were discov-
ered and he ran up to the room occu-
pied by Miss Snyder, and after arous-
ing her by tugging at the bedclothes
and barking loudly, led her down a
rear stairway to safety.
Every night Sultan slept with his
head on a clean white pillow beside
Christman, and every morning the dog
would tap Christman on the face with
his paw to arouse him. There were
tears in Mr.. Christman's eyes yester-
day as he told of his devotion to the
pet.
Sultan was placed in a metallic coffin
lined with pink satin and his head
rested on a satin pillow On the lid
was a silver plate on which was in
scribed his name. Mr. Snyder took tha
little coffin with him on limited ex-
press train to Ohio, where it was buried
in the family plot.
