 Five laborers, including the convict foreman, O. W. Spreading, had gone into the mines with the convicts, and they met their fate. together with no conv1cts. The explosion, which was of powder and dust, did not send immedi- ate destruction through the mines, but destroyed one of the fans which sup ply ventilation and allowed black damp to formulate.
 After the explosion several convicts who had been in mines before under stood that 1t was a race for life and headed for the mouth. Some of these men yelled to their fellow workers to get out.
 In the race against the black damp and death forty-five convicts managed to get out.
 Rescuing parties who ventured into he mines after the explosion saw con- ticts stumbling all over the place, dropping here and there as they wo-e overcome by the foul air. Relief could not be given, as the rescuers had to re- trace their steps to save their own lives. ...#

by immigration, chiefly Berlin From
1905 to 1910 people moving away
from Berlin outnumbered new arrivals
by nearly 10000. Among other cities
to show a loss in this respect are

Frankfort on Main gained $4,000 in

AS compared with the period from
1900 to 1905, the figures for 1905 to
1910 show that increase of population
in cities of over $4,000 was somewhat

NOT A BRITISH UNIT IN
Irishman Would Not for Minute
Allow the Possibility of Such
Thing.

George Mockler has just returned
from an investigation of what coal
is costing some of the other cities.
He brought this story from Balti-
more:
An Irishman there inherited a coal
mine up in the state. He immedi
ately entered the lists for one of the
big coal contracts and went around
to say good word for his coal.
The man who was letting the con-
tract heard him a moment, and then
interrupted with:
That's all right, but how about
British thermal units?'
The other. being new to the coal
business, did not know that coal is
rated now according to the British
thermal units in tests.
"Phat's that" he said
How many British thermal units
are there in your coal?"
The Trishman blinked his eye and
snorted bit.
British thermal units is it?" he
said. why there amt wan in It,"
