patent medicines, and it is undenia-

some are even worse, because they
are injurious. On the other hand
there are many patent medicines
such as Lydia e. Pinkham's Vegeta-

are of real worth, and are recon-
mended by physicians of recognized

Denver.-A News special from

tunnel since construction was begun
was increased today. when three men
were killed by gas following blast
A. s. Haynes. Parker Patten and n.
Martin were suffocated and score
of others had . narrow escape from
death.
The accident was one Of the most
peculiar that has ever happened in
construction work of this character.
The afternoon shift had fired round
of shots at the tunnel heading. where
the bore is being enlarged. and 1t was
the smoke and gas generated by these
shots which caused the death of the
three men.
The shots were fired two miles from
the end of the tunnel and a mile west
OF where the shots were fired is an
air shaft Formerly all of the smoke
and gases had escaped through this
ventilating shaft: but today. for some
reason not yet explained, there was q
shift in the air-current and the en-
tire volume Of smoke and gases was
hurled back upon the huddled work

dred feet from the shot and out OF
the danger zone OF flying missiles.
The gases and smoke approached SO
rapidly that the thirty men were en-
veloped before they realized their
danger When they found that the
smoke and gases were about them
the men began a mad race with death
to reach the fresh air. two miles
away.
Those who were the fresher and
more vigorous stopped to assist their
companions as they dropped and this
retarded their progress toward safety
Finally an electric tram was overta
ken and the survivors were hurried
to the fresh air. Ten or twelve of the
men were SO nearly dead that for sew

could not possibly live. But heroic

ALlST PARTY.

London.-Sunday gave a welcome
respite from the strenuous work at the
election stations. and an opportunity
for calm reflection over the prospects
of both parties striving for control of
the government. he greatest ANNA
ton prevailed at the clubs and other
rendezvous of politicians and Satur-
days results were excitedly discussed
from every possible viewpoint
Although both sides preserve san
-uine ar of confidence. it is evident
that the Conservatives have abandoned
hope that their party will form the
next government. The utmost they
dare to expect "a that the Liberal ma
jority will be so reduced in the next
Parliament as to place the Liberalists
at the mercy of the Nationalists.
1t must be remembered that Mr.. Bal
four. leader Of the opposition in the
House of Commons, in a speech some
days ago, said the great political is
sues now in question would not be set
tied by one general election. and per-
haps not by two. Clearly the expire
mier accurately measured the stu
alton and the hopes OF the tariff re-
formers must now be conferred upon
some future general election.
An estimate made Sunday by well
informed Unionists. based on Satur-
days pollings. gives the Liberals and
Laborites a clear majority of 80 or 100
yer all parties, which would provide
the Liberal government with good
working majority. Many Of the Union
lists. however. are less Respondent.
They do not believe the Liberalists
will finish the election with SO good q
record as this.
At the National Liberal club great
satisfaction is expressed over the re-
suits SO far. Some further losses are
expected at Glasgow. and a reduced
vote In the English counties. where
the agricultural vote would be likely
to benefit from tariff reform and
where the landed interests have great
influence.

FRATERNAL ORGANIZATIONS.

If anything grows by what it
feeds upon the fraternal Organi-
cation does. In other words, a
man or a woman, (fOr in these
DAYS there are almost as many
such orders for women as mem
belonging to one organization,
straightway desires to join anOth-

one order begets love for anOth-
err and so on. True, there are
some men, who belong to one
lodge as other men belong to one
church and one only. But these
are the exceptions. AS a rule,
the man who becomes a Free
mason or an Odd Fellow enjoys
the fraternal feeling the order
induces, and his heart grows big
ger with it. He not only aSpires
to rising to higher degrees in his
order, but his heart goes out to
all manifestations of fraternity,
all organizations which embody
the fatherhOOd Of God, the broth,
erhOOd of man. The chances are
that he becomes a "j'iner.'
And why not? 1t is a case of
gain by accretion. The ties
that bind" also enlarge and en-
noble a mans mind and charac-
ter. The hidden fraternal bond
is revealed in love and charity to
all mankind.
Therefore the existence of one
or more organizations in town
does not initiate against the in
PRODUCTION of others. On the
contrary it makes it easier to es.
tablish new ones. The soil is
prepared and ready for the seed.
The atmosphere is right for it's

So let the fraternal orders
grow in numbers and kind. All
things that bind men together in
friendship and kindness are for
good.

THE CROWDED STREET CAR.

Theodore ShOnts, the railway
magnate and part owner of a
subway and elevated line, in New
York, got a dose of his own medi'
cine the other day when he trav-
eTed in a subway car. After be-
ing pushed, battered and squeez-
ed and carried two stations be-
yond his home Mr.. ShOnts de.
nounced conditions as outrage
Gus and characterized his expert
ence as fierce" tits to be hoped
that his experience will prove a
blessing to future passengers.
If car company officials could
once undergo the diScOmfOrts OF
standing in a street-car there
would be better provision made
for cOngeSted hours and districts
of travel. But perhaps their In
ferno will be the continual riding
in a crowded car, hanging to a
strap, with feet trampled and
clothes rumpled by companions
in misfortune, travelling on a belt
line that eternally carries the
wretch beyond his stopping
place.
1t would seem however that
the public has the power in its
own hands to correct this abuse.
1t needs only one truly courage
Gus man to refuse to pay for rid
ing in a car where he cannot get
a seat. He would be put off very
promptly. He could then sue
for damages, which would bring
the matter into the courts. If a
Judge could be found who would
not seek to recuse himself, on
account of a fellow-feeling for
the plaintiff, the case would be
soon settled on it's merits.
In Europe, street car pasSen.
gers have seats as a matter Of
course. And if the American
citizen would be as determined
for pay-when-you Sit-down cars
as the street railway companies
are for S-yOu-enter cars, the
battle would soon be won.

The Classification of Rates.

The Director of the Census has
issued a detailed statement of
the classification of rates adopted
for the compensation of enumer.
atOrs in the Thirteenth Census,
commencing April Is next.
There are three general rates
the per capita, the mixed, and
the per diem.
The per diem rates range from
So to Sc, and are to be paid for a
day of eight hours work.
For enumeratOrS on the per
capita basis, which will be that
most widely used, the pay for
each inhabitant is: Class A, 2
cents; class B, 2 1-2 cents; class
G, 8 cents; class D, 3 1.2 cents:
and class E, 4 cents. Such emu
merators will also be paid for
each farm as follows; Class A.,
20 cents; class B, % 1-2 cents;
class G, % cents; class D, q IL
cents; and class E, 30 cents.
These rates are in each case 5
cents or more higher than those
paid in 1900, when the range was
from 10 to 20 cents. For each
establishment of productive in
duStry the rate for each class is
30 cents. For each barn and in.
closure containing live stock, not
on farms, the pay is 10 cents for
each class.
