ROY BLANKS KILLED
BY TOM WO0DARD
Died This Morning-shootin
Done Sunday Afternoon
at NortonvilIe
SHOTGUN WITH HEAVY
CHARGE FIRED FROM
DEPOT SECOND STORY
Arrest Made Yesterday After Court o
Inquiry Before County Judge
Bradley

Roy Blanks was shot Sunday
afternoon at Nortonville in a
mysterious manner and although
there were numerous persons In
the immediate vicinity, several
very near him, and the shooting
was done with a shotgun, do
one seemed to know who did it,
nor to a certainty where the shot
came from.
Blanks was standing on the l..
& N. Railroad at the depot, while
an /. @. freight train was rum
ming over the crossing at the in.
tersection of the two roads but a
few feet away. There were sew
eral men sitting on the L. & N.
steel rail near where he stood.
The gunshot was fred while the
l. @. train roared past and the
sound was hardly noticed, but
Blanks fell with the charge of
B. b. shot in the back of his neck
and shoulders, a little low for in
stant death. One shot passed
through his cheek. Others were
felt in his breast muscles, having
ranged downward from the rear
and without force enough to pass
through his body. Smokeless
powder was used and no one saw
the discharge. One theory is
that the shot was fred by man
on the passing freight train.
Blanks refused to make any
statement after the shooting.
He was partially paralyzed.
Blanks has been in serious trou-
BILE before and was under prom
Use to court officials to stay out of
Hopkins Countp. He had been
about Nortonville for a day or
two before the shooting and is
said to have been drinking.
Yesterday afternoon County Judge
Bradley and County ATTORNEY Sy-
pert held court of inquiry at Nor
tonviile, with the result that Tom
Woodard was arrested, charged
with having fred the shot from the
second story of the depot, which is
used as q telegraph office. At

DR.. JOSEPH HOLMES
Director OF the United States Bu-
reau Of Mines, Discusses
Mine Explosions
MUST GET AWAY FROM THEORY

Washington, March 18.-"We are
not making satisfactory progress In
reducing the loss of life in our
mines," said DR.. Joseph A. Holmes,
Director Of the United States Bu-
reau Of Mines. "And we will never
make this progress until we get
away from theory and get down to
actual practice, and develop that
hearty, determined cooperation be-
tween the mine owner and the mine
worker, which is absolutely essen
tial to success.
"It would be unfortunate and un-
pardonable If from the many Amer
icen mine disasters of the past few
years we have not learned some les
sons that may help to prevent or
minimize future disasters, or reduce
the loss of life resulting from them.
Mine disasters have resulted from
mine fires, gas explosions, or dust
explosions, or q combination of two
or all of them. The two most nota-
BILE recent disasters from mine fires
were the Cherry disaster of Nov. IS,
1909, where 259 men lost their lives
the fire having started from tho
burning of hay In the mine stable
and the Pancoast mine disaster,
near Scranton, Pa, where 72 men
lost their lives from q fire which APP
pears to have started from the in
f1ammable material at one of the
underground power stations.
SIN neither of these two mine fire
disasters does there appear to have
been any accompanying gas or dust
explosion. 1t is evident that the
men were suffocated or poisoned by
the gases generated from the fire,
excepting of course the few who
we're killed from the heat Of the fire
itself.
1.-The two most important lessons
taught by these two disasters were
the risks that always attend the
practice, entirely too common, of
carrying infiammable materials into
the mines and keeping them in the
mine, and the inadequacy of the
methods and equipment for fighting
and extinguIshing mine fires. or
course we must timber In the mine,
and no economical method is now
known for fire. e-proofing this timber.
AS long as we keep mules in the
mines, certain materials must be
carried with which to feed them but
IL baled hay must be taken into the
mines for feeding purposes, 1t can be
easily aud specifically wet either
by sprinkling or dipping 1t quickly
into a tank of water, and 1t can be
carried In closed cars. BY all means
the easiest way to prevent the risk
of fires in mine stables is to keep
these stables outside of the mines.
Gin the prevention of gas explo-
sions in the mines, the lesson which
all past experience teaches as being
of first Importance is to sweep the
gas out of the mine by means of ad-
equate ventilation. IL connection
with such ventilating system it Is
important that there should be du-
plicate fans, so that, II in any way,
one is destroyed, another is imme-
diately available. In order to pre-

regard to beef production in Iowa, col

ton, baby beef" and other phases OF

This work has been in progress since
early in March when the executive
board met in Des Moines and hired a
representative to promote the beef
cattle interests of the state.
1t is the object of the association to
get together as much as possible OF
reliable information on the subject OF

from the standpoints of both the prac
tical feeder and cattleman and the ex-
pertinent stations work.
Special attention is being given to
gathering information from breeding
stock. and to the production of baby
beef. tho the questions dealing with the
feeding Of older steers are not being
neglected.
The association desires to hear from
as many as possible of the men in Iowa
engaged either in feeding silage to beef
cattle, or in keeping a herd of beef
cows and fattening out the produce
either as calves or yearlings. Such
men will aid the work materially ii
