BY AID OF WIRELESS, OPERATOR

M'GINNIS PROVES A HERO
Stays in Operating Room Repeating
Calls Until Assured That Two
Vessels Are Coming to
Assist.

New York, Feb. 5.-Safe and sound
on board the Mallory liner.Alamos, the
captain and crew of forty-six men of
the Inflated steamer Kentucky are
speeding today for Key West. The
Kentucky lies on the sea bottom of
Cape Hateras-wrecked before she
was fairly under way on her projected
voyage to the Pecifc.
1t is another case of a disaster avert.
ed by wireless and told to the world by
the same medium. The Kentucky, a
wooden vessel of 996 gross tonnage and
203 feet long, was bound from New
York to the Pacific to carry passen-
gers between Tacoma and Alaskan
ports for the Alaska-Pacifc Steam
ship company.
First news of the Kentucky's dis.
aster was received 1T the United
Wireless company's station at. Cape
Hatteras at 1880 a. m., yesterday.
There the operator heard the S. O. S..
quickly followed by this message:
w are sinking. Our latitude is
$3.50, longitude 1890"
Almost simultaneously the operator
heard the steamship Alamos respond to
the K~entucky's call for help, informing
Captain Moore that the Alamos was
making all speed to the sinking YES
sells assistance. Thereafter no mes
sage vas received from the Kentucky
indicating that water had interferec
with the power, putting her wireless
apparatus out of commission.

MINE EXPLOSION KILLS SEVEN.
Another Fatal Disaster in Coal Field
Added to List.

indianapolis, Feb. 5.-Ten Hungar-

toll today in the Earnst mine of the
Jefferson & Clearield Coal company,
five miles north of this place. The ex-
plosion occurred in a heading where
twelve men were located, and one of
these, Andrew Krazcer, escaped by
craving a quarter of a mile on his
stomach to evade the noxious gas.
When he saw the lights of the res
cuers, he moaned and tried to crawl
He was slightly burned, but suffered
chiefly from the effects of after-damp.
The position of the bodies showed the
men had made desperate efforts to
crawl away from the heading.
How Krazcer escaped cannot be
learned until he RECEIVERS from fright
and exhaustion. He may then be able
to tell how the explosion occurred.
One hundred and ten men working
in the same slope escaped through
other headings, tlthough they were
held back for about ten hours by black
damp until a rescue party reached
them. One hundred other men work.

Il had eczema on my hands for ten
years. I had three good doctors but
none of them did any good. 1 then
used n box of Cuticura Ointment
and three bottles of Cuticura Resolvent
and was completely cured. My hands
were raw all over, inside and out, and
the eczema was spreading all over my
body and limbs. Before 1 had used one
bottle, together with the Cuticura
Ointment, my sores were nearly
healed over, and by the time 1 had
used the third bottle, I was entirely
well. To any n who has any skin
or blood disease I would honestly ad-

but to get Cuticura and get we'll. MY

PLACING THE IMMIGRANTS
IN HOUSTON.
BY Rev. H. B. Lieberman.

BY Rev. IL. B. Lleberman
When, through chance or on pur-
pose, work for alienation Of others
is given up, it behooves the worker to
lay his reasons before the people inter
ested, that by their impartial Judgment
the labor may be estimated and proper
credit given Malicious personalities
only point out the defects and obscure
the advantages, they reflect the evil
temper of the party who is in the
wrong and only harm the cause which
they pretend to help The person who
is right may and does speak calmly;
he can afford to let another vent his
spleen, and even assail articles not
yet written, misrepresent motives and
facts, and get off on his ear any which
way, he is left unhurt and right is and
remains right.

take and assimilate eight men month

that time had in mind the difficulties
experienced here two years ago, and

RAILROAD LEGISLATION.

A large portion Of the present SEES.
sion OF congress has been devoted to
railroad legislation along the lines of
what is termed the "Roosevelt policy"
that was bequeathed to the TAFT ad.
ministr alton. The measure that is
now in the final stage of consideration.
and which will probably be enacted
into law, may not conform to the views
OF the radical critics of railroad
methods, but the more conserv alive
members OF congress believe that in q
matter OF such Importance IL 10 the
better plan to refrain from any ex.
treme that might work injury and in.
justice to the interests affected.
Disregard Of the rights of the public
is the cause of legislation by congress-
and several states to compel the rail.
roads to act square. The various
railway systems have practically q
monopoly Of the transportation busi-
ness In the United States, and In the
absence Of laws compelling them to
give fair treatment to every shipper
they formerly discriminsted between
certain pstrons or communities. T
