WAS A CLOSE GAME
Bayfield, High School Wins
Foot Ball Game Saturday,
Score 6 to 5.

+ In one of the most evenly matched
games of foot ball that has ever been
played in this city the Bayfield, high
school defeated the Washburn High
school OH the grounds in this city last
Saturday afternoon. The day was an
ideal one for the game, being neither
too warm for the players or too cold
for the fans. A large audience of
"rooters" attended the game.
Washburn succeeded in making the
first touchdown, Fred Christensen,
halfback for the Washburn team,
making a gallant run down the field
for a distance of more than thirty
yards and landing the ball behind the
Bayfield, goal Ip making his dash
he encountered several players but
succeeded in dodging out of their
way. The attempt at goal failed,
leaving the score 5 to o in favor of
Washburn.
During the third quarter the Bay
field team worked the forward pass
to perfection and finally succeeded in
getting the ball in the hands of a
speedy player who made dash for
the goal and succeeded in making 1t
before being tackled by Washburn
players. Goal was kicked leaving the
score 6 to 5 in favor of Bayfield,.
During the fourth quarter the
Washburn players made desperate
attempts to make another touchdown
ard had the time not been called
would have succeeded in their at
tempts. They battered the Bayfield,
line for good gains all through the
quarter and the game ended with the
ball on the Bayfield, Is yard line.
1t was good exhibition of the game.
The Washburn players showed excel
lent training under coach Gud d.
Hyper.

Loses His Arm

Barney Dunn, who was seri-
ously injured at Odanah reserva-
tion last week when he was hit
by a falling tree, suffered the
amputation of his right arm
Monday. The arm was badly
smashed and an attempt was
made to save it by wiring the
bones together, but blood poison
set in and it became necessary
to mputate the arm in order to
save Mr.. Dunn's life. Reports
from the hospital are to the
effect that Mr.. Dunn is very
weak and his condition
is considered critical. Wash
burn friends hope for his
speedy recovery.

John Bureguard to be Given
a New Trial
Case Ordered Back by Su-
preme Court After Man
Had Served one Year.

The regular October term of the
Circuit court for Bayfield, county will
convene in this city next Monday
morning with Judge John K. Parish
presiding. The calendar of cases for
this term is an unusually lenghthy
one, there being seven criminal cases,
twenty-one jury cases, thirty-two
cases of fact for court and one case of
law for court.
The principal criminal case to be
tried at this term of court is that of
the state VS.. John Bureguard, who is
charged with the murder of Louis
Mitchell. The case is made all the
more interesting on account of the
fact that Bureguard was tried during
the spring of 1910 and convicted of
murder in the first degree and given
life sentence in the state prison at
Waupon. Bureguard served one year
of his term when the case was appealed
by Attorney Mcleod of this city with
the result that the Supreme cour
ordered the case back for another
trial. The murder for which Bure-
guard is now to be given a second
trial occurred during the month of
December 1909 in the town of Barnes.
Bureguard at the trial claimed self
Defense He said that he wat
stopping at the home Of his aunt Mrs.
Mitchell, and that during the night
he was awakened to find Mr.. and
Mrs. Mitchell engaged in desperate
battle. He claimed that Mitchell
was pounding his aunt and that he
.attempted to interfere to save the
woman from serious injury where-up-
on the infuriated man turned upon
him, threatening to kill. He claimed
that Mitchell procured shot gun and
threatened to end his life, where
upon he grabbed the gun from him
and beat him over the head. Nit
chell died as the result of the beat
ing. Bureguard calmly awaited the
arrival of the officers to arrest him.
He remained in the county jail until
spring when he was given a trial and
convicted and sentenced to life inn
prisonment, He served one year in
the state prison.
Among the personal injury cases
which will occupy the attention OF
/ the court for some time is the one OF
Fred Rowles against the Northern
Pacific Railway. Rowles, it will be
remembered, was injured some time
ago when team which he was driv-
ing was struck by the train at the 9th
avenue crossing. c. L. Wiley also
has case against the railway COM
pany for damage to his hack and the
loss of a horse which wss killed in the
accident.
Tom O'Toole of Iron River also
has personal injury case against the
South Shore road. O'Toole was in
iured when his team was hit by the
cars at Iron River.
The cases on the calender may take
two weeks or more to dispose OF and
an adjourned session may have to be
held.

VIII be Lynehed When Captured

CoatesvllIe, Pa. Oct. 9--As the
result of brutal attack made to-
night upon Annie McElheny, a stu
z@ent at the Coatesville high school
by an unknown negro, another
lynching is threatened. the popu-
lance being aroused almost to a
pitch equal to that when zack
Walker was lynched here on Sun
day Aug. 13.
This evening, while Miss McEl-
heny, who is daughter of William
McElheny. prosperous farmer. was
on her way home from school, she
was attacked. The girl fought her
assailant until half her clothing was
torn from her body and just as she
was being overpowered. Frank
Wynn, farmer, came upon the
scene.
The negro, frightened by Wynn s
wagon, hurled his victim to the
ground and leaping the fence, darts d
across Wynn's meadow. Wynn gave
the alarm, and in less than half an
hour there were score of farmers
armed with shot guns in hot pur.
suit. For nearly an hour they were
able to keep him in view, when
dark ness caused them to lose sight
of him.
The posse did not give up the pur-
suit, however, and late tonight, is
securing the country in the vicinity
of where the attack occurred.

of the work of cleaning, articulatlug
and mounting skeletons at the Museum,
trade by itself and one requiring in
finite patience and great technical
skill.
The removal of the National Museum
from the old to the new building has
resulted in the division Of skeletons
being given larger quarters, and the
display has been arranged so as to give
1t prominence never before had. To
employees of the Museum and many
visitors this division is known as the
"bone yard.
Perhaps there is not the attraction in
it for the average visitor that there

Hou Dust Is Made

Dust is made In cutting the coal either
by hand or with machines. Breaking
down the coal after 1t is undercut makes
more dust. II the coal is shot down.
dust is made by the shsttering action
of the blast. In breaking humps with
sledGes or picks. and even in shoveling
up the coal, some dust is made. II the
coal Is shot OF the solid" II Is badly
broken, and much fine, dangerous dust
is produced.
Coal dust is scattered along haulaQe
roads in several ways. Many cars have
opcn joints or loose fitting gates. and
fine coal Sits through the openings.
Larger pieces Of coal are shaken off the
cars by iolts in running over the mine
tracks or by bumps in switching and
making up trips. These Jumps fall on
the roads and are ground to pieces.
The air passing over the cars moves
very fast because the cars reduce the
space through which IL has TO pass. Dust
lying on the cars is picked up by the
current and scattered along the entries.
Much OF the dust falls on the floor. but
some OF the finest and lGhtost collects
ON timbers and on projections from the
ribs and roof. The latter Is the most
dangerous kind OF dust. for unless II is
dampened amy shock may throw clouds

nited by a flame or an electric arc

Of coal. When piece Of coal burns, the
carbon and other burnable substances in
the coal unite with the oxygen of the
air TO form gases and water vapor. This
union is called combustion. IT is accom-
panied by flame and heat. and the re-
sulting hot gases and vapor tend in
stantlY TO take no many times the space
filled by the piece OF coal and the oxygen
needed 10 burn IT.
\ small piece OF coal burns quicker
than a large piece, and II piece OF coal
of some kinds is small enough u Will
burn In flash. If many particles OF
such coal are suspended In the air as IN
dust cloud. so that each particle has
some oxygen near IT. the burning OF one
particle may fire others and the flame
may spread through the dust cloud in
an instant. II this happens. the hot
gases and vapor from the burning dust
cloud suddenly takes up more room and
presses outward In all directions. In
other words, the mixture of coal dust
and air eXplodes. and thus we have the
way many of the most disastrous cXplo-
sions in the country have happened
The fact that dry pure dust from
bituminous coal, Ignite or asphalt ex-
plodes when ignited in the air has been
proved beyond a doubt by experiments
made by the government The exact
way in which the flame OF the explosion
spreads has not yet been definitely de-
termined. Some persons think that gases
given off by the particles OF dust ignite
and burn. Others think that each bit
OF coal dust burns completely.

travel miles of rooms and entries and
even wreck structures at the entrance
OF mines.
4 peculiar fact about explosions Is that
they happen more often in bituminous
mines during the late fall and winter
than during late spring and summer. be-
cause the mines get dry In winter Cold
air holds less moisture than warm air.
The natural warmth Of a mine raises
the temperature OF the air that enters
cold In winter. AS this air gets warmer
II can absorb more water. 1t therefore
dries the walls. roof. floor, and any dust
present by taking up the moisture and
carrying il out OF the mine. For these
reasons fall and winter is the time most
dreaded my miners.
1t is well-nigh impossible TO prevent
dust being made In the working places
Of coal mines. for most Goals break TO
pieces easily. The dust thus formed is
apt TO be dry because coal seams gen
orally carry little water. Even II some
water soaks down from above and ap
pears In the working. II gathers here
and there In holows. or "swamps.' and
as a rule the larger part OF mine that
Is not sprinkled or made wet in some
other way. is dry during fall and winter.

nical skill apparently out Of all pro.
portion to the finished result. Though
there is more labor in the work, the
larger skeletons are the easier TO
handle. The collection includes Gle
plants, rhiuosceroses horses, gorjlas,
the larger monkeys, all sorts of deer,
man himself, and many mammals.
Every bone in these big skeletons
has to be drilled and articulated with
wires, springs and metal braces. Al
though these do not show, it is neces,
sary that they be put in place with
mathematical precision to give the nat
ural appearance. And then. too, every
thing must he scientifically just so. 1t
