OVER HUNDRED DIE.

Birmingham. Ala, April Slate
this afternoon FIVE dead bodies had
been brought out of the Banner mines
where a dust explosion occurred early
this morning. Fifty men have come
out alive. which leaves one hundred
and fifteen still unaccounted for and
all may be dead. 1t is deemed cer-
tain that one hundred men at least
have lost their lives. The work of
rescue is impeded by after damp, the
fans having been broken by the force
of the explosion. The officials are cer-
tain that the explosion was caused by
dust and not gas. 1t has been ascer-
tanned that only thirty of the en-.
tombed men were negroes, the re-
mainder being white convicts. The
white men go in on the day shift, the
negroes doing the night work.

Federal action is at present impos-

CAPITOL CAN SHOW RESOURCES
The new capitol building Of Mis-
souri, should be built from the nat
ural resources of the state. In this
way the structure would concretely
represent the wealth of our state.
It has been said that Missouri Is
better equipped in this way than any
other state of the Union. There is
building stone OF many kinds from
limestone to marble. Her forests
many varieties of wood suit
able for finishing. From her mines
come iron. lead AND many other
minerals.
The material should be purchased
in Missouri for financial reasons
also. The money spent would be
kept in the state.

A. Wadsworth.
"Thackeray was preacher By na-
tnre, : novilist by accident" said
Miss Mary A. Wadsworth. In her lee
ture on the .-rhackeray Centenary"
last night ut Christian College. His
preaching took the form Of . bitter
satire against eyil Of all kinds. which
has given him the reputation Of be-
ing q cynic. This was never true
of Thackeray. for. though he shows
many unpleasant types. his pictures
are always consistent and true as .
mirror held up to life.
''In those Of his characters which
are hardest for us to understand.
we may think of Macaulay's words.
in speaking of James IL: History
Is stranger than fiction. and Nature
produces many types which Art may
rot initiate.
"In the foibles. frailties. weak
nesses and sins of his characters. he
very plainly shows the overwhelm-
ing effects of heredity and environ
ment. We see in each of his char
acters some of our own faults. and
feel with the author, that, but for
happier circumstances we might
have been as great sinners. Thus he
teaches the great lesson Of charity
for ali mankind.
Throughout the whole Of Thack-
eray's works We have the most deli
c;ous and Illuminating flashes of hu-
NOR. Indeed. but for these touches
of fun he gives us, much of hts work
would be intensely painful reading.
For many years after the death
Of Thackeray it was impossible to
obtain q true biography Of him. The
biopraphers were afraid to write q
partial estimate of his work, on ac-
count of the critics, and equally
afraid to write an impartial one, on
account of the public"
