freaks of dynamite in one of the deep
shafts of the Carbonate camp that

dynamite cartridges 115 inches in diam

gave the customary signals to the

fuse stepped on the bale of the bucket
and started upward When about ten
feet from the bottom one Of the men
had an epileptic fit and toppled out.
His partner tried to reach the bell cord
to stop the bucket, but it was too late.
The bell cord could be reached only
from the lower part of the shaft.
When the engineer saw only one man
come through the collar of the shaft at
the surface his face blanched.
Where's Jim?' he asked excitedly.
Quickly the miner related the cir

A Community Need Supplied.
This widespread adoption of the
Chautauqua proves that it fills a real
need in the lives Of the people As .
matter of fact it is the only unbiase
non-sectarian, non-par.isan platform in
our land. Nowhere else can the great
questions Of our day be presented so
frankly and so freely. The speakers
on the Chautauqua platform are of all
creeds and no creed, of all parties and
no party. They are simply men an
women vita a message. and the Chau
tauqua affords them an untrammele
forum for its utterance. The opportu
nifty presented by the Chautauqu9
platform has been appreciated by our
greatest men.
