One of the saddest cases in the an
nails of law in Spartanburg came up
at the last term of court. George
Shaver was the defendant in an
action brought by his motherin-law.
The woman alleged that Shaver sold
her piano and sewing machine and
family Bible and number OF pic
lures and other household goods
when she was away for Christmas
vacation. She caused him to be ar
rested. The people are wellto-do
white people, but Shaver has been
in the courts on numerous other oc-
casions. He married 14-year-old
girl, and when he was arrested she
agreed with him in saying that She
herself had sold the goods. He was
found not guilty. Then the mother
in-law came before Magistrate A. H.
Kirby and wanted to have her own
daughter arrested.

their own lives, but also the Lives OF
trained and experienced workers, ac
cording to bulletin in Fatal Acct
dents in Coal Mining,
The figures cited are principally
for the decade ending for 1908, dur
ing which period the number of fatal
accidents in the coal mines of North
America was 29,293, and the rate per
1000 employees in the industry was
S;11. During the decade ended in
1906, the latest for which figures for
other coal mining countries were
available, the average fatality rate in
North America, says the report, was
3.13 per 1000. This, it is said, was
decidedly higher than the fatality rate
in other important coal fields of the
world.
"The full extent of the risk in coal
mining in North America" the recoprt
continues, "is, however, not clearly
shown by these figures for the coal
fields as whole, but consideration
must be given to the rates for each
geographical section. These show
that in the East Central section,
which comprises Western Kentucky,
Illinois and Indiana, the fatality rate
for the 20 years ending with 1908
was only 2,25 per 1000 employees,
while in the Western section (Colo.
daro, New Mexico and Utah) it was
ga per 1000, and in the Pacific Coast
section washington and British Co,
lumbia) per cent 1000.
"It would appear that the variation
in the fatality rates is due to diff,
ferent mining methods. and to diff.
ierences in the coal seams"
While the Quotations in the rate

siderable, the bulletin continues since
1899, it has never fallen as low as 8
per. 1,0OO An important relation to
the number OF fatalities is the length
9of mine experience and the bulletin
cites that of the 1863 persons killed IA
West Virginia in the 10 year period
ending with 1908, oone-ffth had work
ed. less than one year in the mine.
Mining methods in the United
States says the report in concluding,
"are often crude and safety precau-
tions are: either disregarded or not
used. Child labor laws have been.
and still are, indifferently complied
with in many States and a number
of fatalities occur each year among
children at an age when they should
be in school. In 1908, 10 children OF
13 and IA, and 13 children of Is years
were among those whose deaths in
the mines were recorded in the Off
cial reports"
