At the same time the district at

an inquiry to place the blame for Sat

It is certain that the fault was not
alone negligence of individuals, but
laxity in the laws and that 1t will be
necessary to appeal to the legislature
for action.
District Attorney Whitman said he
intended to have the grand jury make
a sweeping investigation, which will
be entirely independent of that OF the
coroner He intends that the blame
shall be squarely placed and ii Grim
inal negligence is proved the persons
responsible will be punished. He has

What ~hamlet" Lacked.

In a mining camp town Hamlet"
was one evening given by q strolling
company, and this is the criticism that
appeared next day In the local papers,
written by the miner dramatic critic:
There is too much Ginning In this
piece The author is behind the times
and seems to forget that what we
want nowadays is hair raising situa-
tons and detectives.
"In the hands of a skillful play
wright detective would have been
put upon the track of Hamlet's uncle.
and the old man would have been
hunted down in manner that would
have lifted the audience out Of their
cowhides.
The moral of the piece is not good.
The scene where Hamlet sasses his
mother is very bad example to the
rising generation.
"Our advice to the author is more
action. more lovemaking and plenty
of specialties. The crazy girl scene
should be cut out altogether and Z
rafting good song and dance substl-
tuted."
