WHAT BECOMES OF THE PEN.
MES

What becomes of the pennies? The
records of the mint show that for
some time these smallest pieces of
our fractional currency are being coinl
ed at the rate of 100000 day, and it
would doubtless be found that the tot
al number in existence at this time
runs into many millions. Yet there
are still parts of the country where
any coin smaller than half-dime is
practically unknown. That area, how
ever is rapidly disappearing under
the influence of more acute retail
competition, and hence the constant
need of more pennies and still more
pennies Philadelphia Ledger,

"JIMMY" is MISTAKEN

clude that the latter is the greatest

fer-but when he says, "lf Mr.. For
aker is Republican then l anu not

There is general impression that
Joseph Benson Foraker was pretty
good Republican when he was fighting
for his country, when "A mere lad in
his teens. he was a pretty good Re
publican when he was an able Judge;
when he was governor of Ohio for
four years; when he was the vim and

when he was leader in the United
States senate, the peer of any of the
able and brilliant men who have sat
In that body; when he fired the hearts
and stiffened the ba kbones of Re-
publcans everywhere by his eloquent
and forceful oratory; when he helped
advance the political fortunes of Will
liam II. Taft and Theodore Roosevelt
as well as those of every Republican
candidate for the presidency for more
than thirty years, and at this time
when he can and does advance more
truths and cogent reasoning for the
Republican cause than any man who
has been heard on the political hust

You may be parrot, an imitator
even to the simian point, but for the

suicide by shooting himself in the

The double tragedy was the result
of a fierce love conceived by the Per-

Thinks ChangeabIe Atmospher-
iC Conditions Are ReSpon-
Sible to a Large Extent.
SUGGESTS IMPROVEMENTS
A Majority of Mine Disasters Could
BE Avoided If All the Miners
Were Compelled to Serve an APP
premiership of Three Years.

New York, Feb. 3.---John Mitch
ell, former president Of the United
Mine Workers, and one of the fore
most mining authorities in the
world, today declared his belief that
the changeable atmospheric condi-
t4Ons usually prevalent at this time
of the year, are responsible to a
large extent for the three great mine
disasters in America this week,
which, up to today have cost the
lives of one hundred and sixty-eight
men.
A revision of the reports today
shows the following totals of loss
of life:
Seventy-five are dead as the re-
suit of the explosion in the Colorado
Fuel and Iron Company's mine at
Primero, Colo.
Sixty-three miners are dead at Las
Esperanzas, Mex as the result OF
the explosion in the Paulau mine
there.
Thirty are known to be dead in
the White Mine at Browder, Ky.
Mitchell explained that cold air,
entering the workings, meets the
warmer air from the depths of the
mine and in the contact tends To
create dangerous explosive gas.
Most mine disasters could be
avoided If all the men were com
PEELED to serve an apprenticeship OF
three years, and certain regulations
were strictly enforced" declared
Mitchell.
He suggested that the following
features should be demanded under
the very strictest regulations
Proper ventilation for the work
ings.
Emergency escape shafts.
Sounding pipes, through which
liquid food could be poured IN case
OF men being entombed.
Telephone systems which would
make it possible to communicate,
with the lower workings OF a mine
after an explosion.
Compartments built throughout
mines in order to provide places of
refuge for imprisoned miners In case
of disaster.
With these provisions for meeting
and with trained min
ers capable through experience and
training of accepting the RESPONSE
bilities placed upon them, Mitchell
said that a great majority of the
lives sacrificed this week could have
been saved.

feasance of office.
Both men, It seems, when ar.

imposed upon the two a fine Of $50.

With the same revolver he sent a

That the Persian premeditated the

dressed to relatives in Iowa, in
which he said:

what / am doing. The girl has
ruined me. am not going to leave
her to ruin the life OF anyone else"
The shooting took place in a hall
way at the Idleside, a students
boarding house.
The Persian took seat at lunch
at the same table with Miss Lowsen,
but. others who were at the table say
they did not exchange a word dur
ing the meal.
When the girl left the table, the
Persian followed her and confronted
her in the hallway.
The girls friends say that he had
gone insane with frenzy of love
and jealousy.
