DIE LIKE RATS.
Twelve Miners Drowned by In
rush of Water.
Men at Work Tap Subterranean
Stream.

Hibernia, N. J., oct. 2O.-Twelve mel
were drowned hire today when a blast
destroyed a PARTITION between two
shafts in the iron mines of the Whar-
ton Steel company and let a great
quantity of water, accumulated in an
old shaft, flood the gallery where they
were at work. All the victims are for
eigners except David Slaight, foreman
OF the gang, who lost his life in try
ing to aid his men.
The accident occurred in what was
known as the new I4angdon shaft, where
so men were at work. Between this
and the abandoned one was a partition
of logs. A blast fred soon after the
day shift went to work this morning
weakened this barrier SO that it gave
way before the water in the adjoining
gallery. In less than a-ninute the Wa
ter was over the miners heads and
they were Obliged to swim in the dark
ness toward the opening leading to Il
higher level. The place where they
were at work was about 300 feet below
the surface
Slaight, the foreman, was in posi-
ton of safety when the deluge ca .le'
but he rushed into the submerged shaft
to assist the drowning men and was
caught there with the other victims.
1t probably will be some time before
the bodieS are recovered.

FILIPINOS ARE SETTER.
Take Kindly to Education and Are
Learning to Work, Says Mr.. HigIey.

Carl Higley, a nephew of Judge F.
NJ Grover of 4O7 Monroe street, who
has been teaching for three years in
NegrOs Island of the Philippine group,
was in the city today on his way to
New Vienna, Ohio, and had an inter
esting story to tell of the work that IS
being accomplished by the Americans
on the island on which he resided.
Under the Spanish regime Mr..
Higley said, 1.-The people got the idea
that work was degrading, but the
trade schools which are being estab-
nshed by the Americans have done
much to teach the natives the dignity
of labor
Formerly cock fights were all the
rage, but now interest centers on the
athletic sports and baseball, tennis,
and other games are exceedingly pop
ular."
Mr. Higley has 50 native teachers un-
der him and he visits 80 schools, and he
says that the natives take kindly to
education. 1t is only the politicians
who are inclined to be resentful. The
common people understand that they
will be the gamers as result of the
efforts which are being put forth b.
the Americans in an educational way.
Mr. Higley expects to return to the
Philippine islands within few
months He is most enthusiastic over
his work He returned by way of
China. Egypt and Europe

SHOOT UP A TOWN
" hitney Brothers Terrorize a
Wyoming Hamlet.
Hold Place at Their Mercy for
Several Hours.

Salt Lake City. Oct. 2O.-A special
from Cokeville, Wyo., says that five
men rode into that town last night and
for nearly an hour held the place at
their mercy. It is the belief in Coke
Vile that two members of the party
were the Whitney brothers. who have
been terrorizing parts of southern
Idaho and western Wyoming, and for
whom a search is now being made
The men made their appearance first
at the wyoming saloon and during the
course of their visit took a shot at the
bartender. Going out onto the street
they ordered the residents to their
homes and while enforcing their or
ders with their firearms. shot Peter
II. Anderson in the leg. Later the
visitors rode to the Office of County
Attorney Reynolds and took several
shots at him, but none was effective.
Just before leaving the town they rode
to the Fuller saloon and fired volley
through the front windows So far as
known no one was hurt there.
Before the townspeople could or
ganize for resistance, the visitors rode
away, and today a posse is searching
the country for them.

TAFT IN WYOMING.
President Makes a Visit to Fort
Mackenzie.

Sheridan, Wyo., Oct 2O.-President
Taft and party re- entered Wyoming
today. He was met here by United
States Senator Warren and Congress-
man Mondell who will escort him
through the remainder of the state.
The local program included an inspec-
ton of Fort Mackenzie and a speech
at the city hall.
Although today marks the end of five
weeks of travelling the president still
has several thousand additional miles
to cover before leaving Pittsburg on
his supplemental trip. Secretary Hillies
and others close to the president are
deeply interested in the reception be-
ing planned for Mr.. Taft in South Da-
kota, Wisconsin and Minnesota.
In the reception line at the station
here when the Taft train came in was
Curley, the Grow scout who is sup
posed to have been the only man with
General Custer to escape in the Little
Big Horn fight. Curley reported the
news of the massacre of the Custer
troops. Mr.. Taft shook hands with
him as he passed.

(F'rom a photograph taken at the
Kansas penitentiary, where he was
convict 1852. under the name of
Charles Marik.)
Local officers do not believe that the
man arrested last night at Newkirk,
Ok. is Marzyck. Many persons here
now believe that Marzyck left for the
south on a train several days ago
''John Smith, He Signs.
The suspect held at Newkirk, Ok on
the charge of being the man who stay
ed at the Baker hotel here Sunday
night and connected with the Show
man murder, registered under the name
of John Smith. Junction City Kan,
the same name and address used here.
He answers the description of the man
wanted. Identification papers were sent
and an officer left this morning to iden-
tify the suspect
Snowman Feared NIarzyck.
According to a story told by H. r.
Lconey, a friend Of Sh4wnan, the dead
man expressed fear of Marzyck as re-
Gently as two weeks ago. Looney says
he and Snowman were hunting in the
vicinity of the home of Mrs. Vopat,
Marzyck's first wife, when Snowman
said:
''Marzyck is the only enemy have
on earth. He has sworn he will kill
me and my family. 1 live in constant
fear of him. for am afraid he VIII
strike when I am not looking for It.
1 should like to know when he is COM
ing to get even with me-
Prosecutor Bartlett is still trying to
reach Marzyck's parents in San Fran
cisco. a message was sent them sew
eral days ago. but no response has
come.
Like Old Horse Thief Hunt.
Never since the days when cattle
thieves infested this western Kansas
country has there been such man
hunt here as is being waged for the
murderer of the Snowman family, slain
here last Monday, but the slayer is still
at large.
Sheriffs' and citizens posses in auto
mobiles, persons in carriages and
horseback and men on foot all heavily
armed, searched this and Rice county,
the first county south, all day. Scores
of rumors of mysterious persons an
swering the description of the suspect
came here from various sections of the
two counties. Few of them appeared
to be well founded. But no clew was
too small or report too doubtful for a
body of men to run it to earth.
And most of these men are determined
that the murderer shall expiate his
crime by death. They are not back
ward about saying they viii shoot if
the suspect is sighted So grave has
become the danger of lynching in case
of an arrest that Prosecutor Samuel
Bartlett has notified county officials
