Meets Death From Gas

Jerry Grover of Plainview, met
a tragic death Saturday, while en-
gagged in blasting a well. The
well had been sunk to a depth of
sixty feet and another blast made
with the view of going down still
deeper. A reasonable time was
given for the gases to escape from
the we'll following the explosion,
and a candle lowered into the we'll
as an extra precautiOn. The can
die tlickered safely indicating that
the gas had escaped and Mr.. Gro
yer descended to the bottom when
an order to hoist him was given.
The order was obeyed with all pos
sible haste and he had been hoisted
to within twenty feet of the top,
when, with sudden cry, he fell
headloag to the bottom, having
been overcome by gas which still
remained in the we'll. For fear
that gas still remained in the we'll
no one else dared venture into it
until Sunday, when the body was
removed. Having fallen a dis
tance of fourty feet there is little
doubt but that the man was killed
instantly.
The deceased leaves a mother,
wife, two daughters and three
brothers, and a sister. The re.
mains were buried at Cottonwood
Sunday. Mr.. Grover was a home
steader near Plainview and was q
we'll contractor. He was we'll
known in Pennington and Meade
counties, having lived in that Sec
tion for the past twenty years.

immigration Department

Pierre, June 5.-The failure of
the attempt to refer the law Great
ing the state department of immi-
grafton means that within thirty
days the immigration board Great
ed oy the law will be called upon
to select a commissioner, the board
for this purpose being composed
of the governor, secretary of state
and state land commissioner.
While there are number of aspir-
ants over the state who would not
object to acting as commissioner,
those apparently pushing the hard
est for the honor are: l. A. Webb
of Deadwood; Everett White, of
Faith, and George Van Camp of
Highmore. The selection will
probably be made before the first
of July, when the law creating the
department goes into effect. just
what salary is paid the commission
er is left to the discretion of the
board, but as the department is
only granted 81, 800 for the first
year of its existence and 10000
for the second year, based some
what on the amount at the dispos-
al of the board.

his way. He says: The Senate
will have 10 stand the hot weather
as best it can, but it does not need
to think the House is going to al
low it to get out of Washington
without taking action on reciproc-
ity, the various amendments offer
ed thereto, and some of the other
big things on the democratic pro-
gram"
So far as the House of Repre-
sentative is concerned the wool
tariff is to be revised, and Chair
man Underwood of the Ways and
Means committee says that two
thirds of the democratic members
of the House will stand by the
party caucus and his committee in
ratifying the program which has
been agreed upon. There is no
measure before congress except
that of reciprocity, that has
brought greater protest from all
over the country than the effort
to practically remove protection
on wool. While there is but little
sympathy with the manufacturers,
yet the growers and producers of
wool are up in arms and are be-
seeching congress not to destroy
their industry.
An interesting phase of the po-
litical situation is being discussed
in Washington, and there are plen-
ty of politicians who recognize the
possibility that if the Senate de-
feats reciprocity, it will be doing
the best possible thing to help the
personal standing of President
Taft. The logic of this viewpoint
is that if the Senate, which is none
too strong is the eyes of the nation,
turns down the reciprocity agree
ment, that President Taft can go
out before the country, hammer
ing away at the issues before the
people, thereby making business
extremely bad for some of the
senators who are now doing their
level best to defeat reciprocity.

FAR BEHIND IN kER0RAUTICS
France, Germany and England Are
Ahead, Although the United States
Was the First Nation To
Recognize the Aeroplane.

Washington.-With an underlying
note of bitterness General James Al
len, chief signal officer of the Army,
declares in bis annual report that al
though the United States was the first
nation to recognize the aeroplane for
military purposes and carried out the
first official test Of that invention at
Fort Myer, in 1908. such phenomenal
progress in this science and art has
been made abroad that this country
has been left far behind in securing
practical equipment and organization
for the use of this indispensable ad'
juRct to war" Failure to find the
necessary officers to be trained as
aviators and lack of funds are said to
furnish the explanation for this situa.
tion.
General Allen says the most notable
progress in military aeronautics has
been accomplished by France, Ger.
many and England. The French have
perfected particularly effective
aeronautic corps, which was thor
oughly tried out with 20 aeroplanes in
recent army maneuvers.
Attention is directed in the report
to the failure of the Senate to con-
firm the adherence Of the United
States to the Berlin Wireless Tele-
graph Convention, and points out the
fact that il is only through courtesy or
by some private arrangement ships
can now communicate with wireless
stations located in foreign countries
General Allen also refers to the great
confusion that now exists in the trans
mission of wireless messages on the
coast of the United States, seriously
interfering with communication from
various coast defenses and ships at
sea, and urges the necessity for legis.
lation providing adequate control OF
all wireless telegraph operations, with
special regulations for war conditions.

improve in horsemanship. The Con.

authority to expend not more than

better way of promoting equitation
could be found that following the
hounds. The controller maintained
that there was no authority of law
for the expenditure.

FOURTEEN MEN
ARE ENT0MBED
Caught BY Explosion in Coal
Mine at Vivian.
FOUR TAKEN OUT ALIVE
State Department or Mines Says
Little Damage Was Done Prop.

Vivian, w. Va.-Fifteen men, eight
of them Americans and the others
foreigners of different nationalities
lost their lives Saturday in an ex.
plosion in the mine of the Bottom
Creek Coal and Coke Company, near
here. All the bodies have been re.
covered.
Four others who were in the mine
at the time of the disaster were taken

1t was at first believed that the ex.
plosion was one of coal dust, but the
State Department of Mines announced
that examination shows 1t to have
been gas explosion and local IN its
effects.
Persons in other parts OF the mine
were not affected. About 800 men
we're employed in and about the work
lngs.
Near the point where the disaster
occurred there were at the time 19
men. Five OF them were engineers
connected with the Crozier Land As.
sociation, which leases the coal to the
Bottom Creek Company.
Immediately after the explosion
rescue parties went to work and sue.

Williams, an engineer, and three other
men.
State District Mine Inspector Mich.
olson hurried here and took charge Of
the attempts at rescue.
Deputy inspectors thoroughly ex.
plored the mine and declared that
there was no further danger and that
little damage had teen done to the
mine, which can b0 worked without
delay. An order for Governme't

The Bottom Creek mine was con.
sidered safe, as it was equipped with
steam jet system for dampening the
workings. A 16.foot fan was used for
ventilation and clay tamping utilized
for shooting. Notwithstanding these
precautions the explosion occurred.
