NINE DEATH LIST
Is ESTIMATED AT 12S

BANNER, Ala, April 14.-Forty-
five bodies have been removed from
the Banner mine of the Pratt Con-
solidated Coal & Iron company
where Wednesdays underground
disaster took place, and 60 more
corpses are piled up ready Tor
the tram-cars to haul them to the
open air.
Last nights announcement that
.12S men were dead, or unaccount-
ed for, was verified. Judging by
the condition in which the bodies
taken from the seventh left entry
were found, it is practically certain
the explosion occurred in that part
of the mine The miners there were
killed outright, while those in the
other parts died of suifocation.

THE GRAND JURY.

The venire from which the grand jury for
the ensuing year will be chosen has been Sc
ected Twenty-four names have been taken
from the jury list, and from this number seven
teen will be picked for the grand jury service.
The entire proposition is one huge Joke. The
members of the board Of county commissioners,
the district Judge and the district attorney are
the ones permitted to select the grand jury
Irrespective of man s ability member OF
the inquistorial body, the names are selected
If friend of one of the 'choosers" happens
to be out of job he is Immediately declared as
a most fitting subject for jury service, and
down goes his name. He is one Of the elected
twenty -four. Provided some other chap-aso
friend of the "choosers happens to have
job that will pay him 81 day instead of
the 50 drawn down by members Of the grand
jury, tell with him, he is Ineligible. Fine
business that!
Furthermore while the drawing of the grand
jury and in fact of any jury, is supposed to
be public matter and matter of public rec
ord, the "choosers'' whisper in underground
tones while selecting their friends making it
almost impossible for an outsider to learn any OF
the names of those chosen to be chosen from
Further, when any of the county officials, those
who should know who is who on the grand jury
are approached, they "slp the buck to the
next in command. None have any of the low
down dope" All are ignoramuSes so lar as
grand jury prospects are concerned The poor

as observed by the strictly religious. The OBJ
servance of this day, supposedly the anniversary
of the crucifxtion of Christ is no latter-day OBJ,
servance. 1t has been day of mourning and
fast. according to Eusebius, who lived IN the
year 300 A. d. from almost the time OF the
death of Christ. During the reign Of Constan-
tine all work was ordered dropped on that day,
while in the middle ages Good Friday was
strictly observed.
There is at the present time movement
afoot for a much stricter observance of the day
than has heretofore been shown. In San Fran
cisco it is noted that the movement has proven
most successful. Many business houses will al
low their employees to attend religious worship
today. the merchants virtually closing their
places of business during the morning hours In
Tonopah there were observances of the day
at both the Episcopal and Catholic churches.

BRITISH IMMORTALS.

Another attempt to found British institu
ton on the plan of the French academy with
its ''forty immortals' is under way with the
unexpected and in some measure humorous re-
suits The proposition is not at all new on the
other side, and indeed, it has been matter OF
grave debate for half century. 1t was about
as long ago that Mathew Arnold demonstrated
the futility of the plan as applied to England.
The present proposal is chiefly interesting by
reason of the tentative list of 'mmortas Of
fered as members. These are the names:
Alfred Austin Arthur Christopher
Benson Laurence Binyon, Andrew Cecil
Bradley. Robert Bridges, Joseph Con-
rad William John Courthope, Austin
Dobson. Edward Dowden, James George
Frazer, Edmund Gosse, Richard Burden
Iadane, Thomas Hardy, Maurice lIew-
lett. Henry James, William Patton Ker,
Andrew Lang. Sir Alfred Comyn Lyall,
John William Mackail, Thomas Surge
Moore Viscount Morley George Gilbert
Murray, Henry Newbolt, Edward Henry
Pcmber Sir Arthur Wing Pmero
George Walter Prothero, Walter Ra-
leigh. Arthur WOOlgar VERBAL, George
Wyndham and William Butler Yeats.
It might be considered an irrelevant and in
competent plea to urge that quite half Of these
names are unknown in America, and we have
no very high opinion Of the other half. Al
that might easily be dismissed with ston!
British stare as an example of American ignor
ancc and prejudice
Still without insisting on a voice in the Sc
lection the English speaking people outside o

which he culogzed the importance Of Wall
