WANT SUNNY jim" TO
RUN ON SUNDAY

A petition was in circulation here
the first of the week asking the A.
{. l.. authorities to run the Sunny
Jim train on Sundays. When this
train was first put on it was done as
an experiment. with the understand
ing that it would be discontinued In
80 days If found not to be paying.
II proved to be one of the best pay
ing trains on the line, and it, still
running. We believe that If the
service was increased in accordance
with the wishes of the petitioners, it
would not only prove a paying one.
but would be a great accommodation
to the travelling public. Inverness

SANFORD LETTUCE IS MOVING

Sanford. Dec. S.--Lettuce is or
the move now and bringing good
prices, which is certainly joyful in
telligence to all parties concerned
This week will break the 1911 rec
ord. as about fifty cars will go for
ward, according to estimates based
upon the amount already gone.
Much of the lettuce has not been
of good quality, but on account of the
demand has brought very good prices.
Some good stuff brought as high as s.
per hamper in Chicago, and most OF
the lettuce shipped has netted the
grower 81 per basket, which is an
excellent price The latter crop will
soon be ready and the holiday trade
ought to bolster up the market and
make sharp prices
The growers are we'll satisfied with
prices 50 far. and the prospects for a
good season are most flattering. The
movement of vegetables will mater
tally assist in putting a brighter COM
plexion on trade generally.

TWO HUNDRED
BURIED ALIVE
LINERS ARE IMPRISONED IN
COAL NINE NEAR KNOX.
WILLIE, TENN.
by Associated Press. J

Knoxville. Tenn Dee. 9-Twt
hundred men were imprisoned in d
coal mine by a dust explosion a,
.:3O this morning. The mine is thu
property of the Knoxville lrCn Com
pany, located near Briceville. thirty
four miles from here The explosion
took place two miles from the en-
trance Of the mine. The life loss il
unknown. but it is feared will be
heavy. 4 federal rescue crew mas
been summoned to the scene.
The explosion was SO far under
ground that it was some time before
the exact position was located. Res
cuers from other works attacked
in an effort to reach the victims
whose families gathered about the
shaft and gave themselves up to
grief. A larger loss Of life was pre-
vented only by the lateness of several
trains which were bringing men ia
the mine.
Three men, who were in another
part of the mine, escaped. but arc
unable to tell just where the cxplo-
sion took place. The fire drove the
rescuers back, forcing them to wal!
for Federal experts with special
equipment. These penetrated about
a mile into the mine, but were
stopped by cave-in. II the en-
tOmbed miners were not killed by the
blast, they may be suffocated by
flames or gas.
