more than will be planted AT any

That is the reason there has not been

Hundreds of Miners Caught in

BRICEVILLE, Tenn, Dec. 1.-Two
hundred and seven men, living or
dead, probably are entombed here in
the great Cross Mountain Coal mine,
according to count made this after
non by the United Mine Workers of
America. They had entered to begin

plosion wrecked the workings Only

Roadway.
Two Miles Below Surface
A big force is here, including engi-
neers from all over the district The
shaft extends for more than two miles
into the bowels of the mountain Ac-
cording to the president of the mine
company the men, if they reached
their posts, were in laterals when the
explosion occurred. This encourages
hope that many may be living. Late
today there was little prospect Of an
early rescue. The rescuers encount-
cred many obstacles. They are dig
ging debris from the shafts and this
must be removed about one mile 10
the exit OF the mine.
Seek to Create Ventilation
About the mouth of a vertical VEN
tilator leading to the top of the
mountain fires have been built to
create a circulation of air from with
| in the mine. 1t Is not yet possible
to determine whether the blocking of
the entry is extensive. Wood posts
and trusses in the shaft have been
blown outward and this, the miners
state, indicates a serious explosion
beyond.
Brattices are being constructed by
means of which air is being forced
into the channel as fast as it is pos
sible to remove the debris. The mine
was thoroughly inspected q. week ago
by j. f. Hatmaker, who has been an
inspector for eight years, and he said
there was no gases in the mine.
Little Hope Entertained.
| Late tonight it is apparent that
many hours must elapse before the
rescuers working desperately can
reach the miners now estimated at
from 126 to 1856. Those most sanguine
hope that by daybreak Sunday the
shafts will be cleared enough to gain
access to the chambers where the
living may be confined or that the
mems bodies may be recovered IT
is generally believed that all are dead

Educating Growers.

I'VE are making particular effort
to educate the intending growers in
the matter of pedgreed trees, and
gradually the doctrine is spreading
We are trying to get people to read
the leaves so that they will be able
to tell in the first year whether they
have got the trees they want instead
of waiting until the trees bear fuit,
as has been the case in the past Be
cause of nursery troubles there have
been men who have waited until their
trees reached bearing age before they
knew what kind of fruit they were to
get That time has passed, and we are
trying to convince the average man
that it has passed and we are making
some progress"

Game Warden Bryant Told Some
Tall Tales and Limit of His
Credulity Is Reached

PheaSantS are reasoning animals.
If not why did a pheasant come into
the city Friday night, make its way
to South Seventh street and come to
rest In front of the home of Game
Warden Frank Bryant? 1t has been
pretty hard times for the pheasants
recently. number have been killed
Invariably they killed themselves by
flying into telegraph wires or fence
wires or in some way becoming en-
tangled in wires Game Warden Bry-
ant has Investigated number of
cases, and in each instance an effort
has been made to impress upon him
the belief that the birds had killed
themselves According to what peo-
pie would have Mr. Bryant believe
five birds which found their way to
one place in the city the past week
all died by striking wires. Mr. Bryant
thinks that is coming it too strong.
Possession Proof of Crime.
Henceforth no especial time will be
wasted in an effort to ascertain who
did the killing. Possession of a bird
or animal killed out of season will
from this time forth be taken as evil
dence of guilt as is the case in other
states. The game law is specific on
this point The person possessing game
killed out of season will be RESPONSE
BILE for the violation of the law. In
this matter public sentiment backs up

Geo. RuCker'S Loss.
Nice Dwelling House on His Farm
Totally Destroyed by Fire.

Geo. E. Rucker suffered a bai
loss Tuesday forenoon when the
nice dwelling house on his farm
two and a half miles west oi
town, was totally destroyed by
fire. The loss was in the neigh.
borhood of three thousand dol
lars, with only fourteen hundred
dollars insurance.
The property was occupied by
W. L. Bailey and family, but
none of the family was at home,
Mr.. Bailey being away at work
and Mrs. Bailey and children
were in town trading.
Only a portion of the Bailey
effects were saved by the neigh
bors who rushed to the place.
Mr.. Bailey did not carry any iri-
surance, and he can i'll afford the
loss.
Mr.. Rucker is having bad luck
enough for one mortal. Only a
few months ago he lost the barn
on his farm. Mr.. Bailey was a
loser in that catastrophe, also.

Henry Viii.

| 1ne hanSaS SCHOOL DOCKS MAKE
known that Henry VIII started
the Churah of England. This
is an offhand statement held by
both Romans and Puritans, and
that they agree in this ought to
cause a degree of suspicion that
possibly the statement belonged
to what might be called the fairy
tale age of the faith of our
fathers.
Why is it needful for apparent
foes concerning the faith thus to
suggest that the Church of Eng
land began during the reign of
Henry VIII?
Like the Gulf Stream in the
Atlantic ocean, carrying with it
much debris, yet causing the
isles of Britain to be a thing of
beauty, so what is called the
Apostolic Succession is the Gulf
Stream of all the ages since Je-
sus Christ, and has made of Eng
land, Notwithstanding her isola-
tion, in religion, what the Rock
of Gibraltar is today-impregna-
BILE. No one assumes that Henry
VIII was a saint, yet we fail to
understand his times and his life
unless we remember that he came
to the throne Unexpectedly, his
elder brother having died, and
that for reasons of state, Roman
and Spanish and English, all
rolled into one, he married the
wife of his brother at the age of
nineteen. Henry had been trained
as a theologian and what came
to pass in the Church of England
taking her rightful place as a
national church was incidental
to the dalliance of the Bishop of
Rome concerning the divorce Of
Queen Catharine, with whom
Henry had lived for some twenty
years without male issue that
aurvived.
If any will take up the whole
subject and read all that can be
had on all sides, Roman and An
glican and Puritan, without bias,
one will find flaws in the argu-
ment that Henry VIII started
the Church of England. It will
be found that Henry VIII died in !
the communion of the Church of
Rome. XYZ
