HUNDRED MEN
 LABOR TO SAVE
 LIVES OF THREE

pnlontown, Pa, July 26-At Lernont Mine, 100 men are battling today for the lives of three miners believed to be waterlogged in the pits. The trio. were caught 1,800 feet from the mouth of the mine and may be staving off death i'll a gallery leading upwards.
 At the waters edge, far down in the
 shaft, the rescuers are fighting the
 flood back, inch by inch' The big
 gest pumps of the mine are coupled
 up and firemen, feeding the boilers
 that drive the pumps, are relieved
 hourly. '
 Hope is dead at nearby superba Mine, where IA or Is miners were drowned Wednesday, and while the rescue work is being pushed, rapidly it may be two months before the bod
 ies are taken out The widows and children of the victims cling to the entrance of the shaft alternately be- moaning their plight and 1berating the mine owners for not warning the men l in time. Thirty children are being 1 temporarily cared for at the company | store
 1 Peter Evans, 60; John Scanlon, 60, and John Groschak, 25, are the water l logged men in Lemont Mine
 In the rescue party are miners who 1 themselves narrowly escaped death in l the onrushing waters. Alarming re-
 ports of loss of life in the interior of Southwestern Pennsylvania and West Virginia continue to reach here, but communication has not yet been restor- ed with the districts and the rVmors are believed to be exaggerated. l Revised estimates of the floods vic l tinns in Pennsylvania and West Vir- ginia place the death total at 25-14 l drowned in Superba Mine, missing
 at Lemont Mine, i dead at Wheeling, W. Va. i at Elmwood, 3 missing at Shock, at Linn, Pa, and i man
 drowned near Clarksburg, W. Va. 1 The flood stage has moved down the l Ohio and the danger of further dam age in and around Uniontown was be- \ rocf

MINISTER WANTS COULD TO
 MARY SOMEONE
Rev. Elmer V. Huffer Thinks That Wedlock Would Enhance Rich Won1-
 ans NobIeness

Grand Junction, Colo, July 26-That Helen Gould is, the most wonderful bachelor girl in the United States but that she could be of more use to hu- rnanity if she were married, was the declaration today of Rev. Elmer V. Huffer, of the First Christian Church of this city.
 Miss Gould has taken issue with the Rev. Huffer in his declaration .sthat 0a ehelor fl1aids should be isolated on some desolate 4island because of their detriment to humanity.
 Miss Gould is a noble wonlan,'' de- clared Huffer today, but her noble ness would be greatly enhanced if she were married
 She is in a peculiar position be- cause of Sher riches She cannot be sure that she is being wooed for love alone The only way to solve this problem is for Miss Gould to accept position in the 'backwoods' incog- nito. Here she might find the right one, righteous, industrious, man who would love her for her true self, for her charming personality and not for wealth. S ! Miss Gould's riches have handicap ped her in the real enjoyment of life, and I dare say she is not so happy with her private car and maids as is my servant girl. If she wants two weeks of real enjoyment let her dis guise herself as waitress and seek work in an church restaurant, let her clerk in a store or work as a cham bermaid, anything so long as she earns her own living and lives on less than $10 per week.
 FOLD MAIDS" STOCK GOES UP
 New York, July 2S-The old maids received gallant support in the Helen Gould-Huffer controversy, today, from the Housewives League.
 That preacher ought to be investi- gated said Mrs. Julian Heath, pres ident of the Housewives League. Several of our very best members are old maids and some of the most valu- able work is being done by them. I admire Miss Gould for taking issues with that silly sermon.
 Thirty members of the league, who are old maids, conduct their own households and they are among the very best in New York city. It is absurd for a minister to take such a stand. Investigation would probably show that he doesn't know what he is talking about.''

worked harder or sacrificed more for his ten children than he for the one child. We are giving up the few luxuries we had before he came, paying more rent than we can justly afford, that he may have plenty of light and air, and sun. shine Give the average middle class salaried man ot New York the offspring of his grandfather, and he must needs dwell in an East Side tenement and breed a sickly ,pallid race.
 T have five brothers and sisters there were also four who died in in- fancy. My husband spends more in year than my father spent in two, and yet it will be straining every nerve that we will educate our boy as we'll as father educated six of us.
 My sons father is rather more domestic than was my father. He is home-loving, hard-working, op- timistic, child-loving. He is not an exceptional father. Among our acquaintances are a dozen young married people whose cases are similar. We go to the theater about every other month: we en- certain friend at dinner, and are entertained in return; we take trolley-rides and go on top of the bus, such is the extent of our mad frivolity. The taxi-riding, resturant-tr -trequenting, butterfly wife undoubtedly exists: l have met her; but she is only the froth on the deadly fitness of the life led by the majority of New Workers
 Apartment life and hotel life is no more demand of the American man and woman than is the child less life. We hate them, we dwell lers therein; but we can't escape. We are too proud to ask for pity, but plense don't blame us. Don't ask if our husbands are failures, poor bears, nor censure us poor. penny-pinching wives. Why not ask, Is America a Failure 1'"

Rodeo Notes of Interest

After riding all the bad horses at the Rodeo, Joe Isbell of Flag staff was awarded the prize in the cowboy contest as the best rider, and the Yaqui, who works for the Johnson outfit at Williams, secured second. Hawn and Accord figured third and fourth, and Wild Horse Hill was not even considered in the finals, although he was never thrown and rode both Cyclone and Highball without effort. The fact that Isbell, Yaqui and Hill all are from Arizona speaks well for the new state. The Flagstaff boys are good riders and there are more at home just like them.
 Harry Knight of Phoenix figured prominently in the roping contest, and Henry Isabel, who also rode well, figured in the team roping contest.
 A. ]. Stanley figured in the racing, having a string of thorough breds against COW horses, and was awarded the prize as the best cowboy, when he was little more than race horse jockey, far as the events in which he entered went. Riding and roping are the cowboy attainments and Stanley was not in the running.
 Michel and his son, ordinarily very fine ropers, had bad luck.
 In the bull dog steer contest, after it was won, the management kept on extending the trials.
 Blancett and Hill figured sec ond and third in the steer wrest- ling, and the crack, Lindsey, who is also a fine rider, was placed

Woman Asks Whether America
 is a Failure

In the April Woman's Home Companion there is an interesting discussion in which some contri- buters blame husbands for the small size of families and other contributors blame wives. One woman suggests that neither may be to blame, but that possibly America is a failure. Following is her experience and comment:
 "I have always felt that 1 could never be truly happy with less than six children. Nor has my feeling changed. Still, I am the mother of one boy. His father adores him. but he would adore a dozen no less. No old-time father

MEETING IN
CLEVELAND
UNITED PRESS LEASED w1RE,i

Cleveland, o., Aug. 1S.-When the
5Sth annual convention of the Inter-
national Typographical Union opened
here today the principal topic under
discussion was the Chicago newspaper
strike.
The suspended Chicago stereotypers
desired hearing at the convention,
but President James NJ Lynch, of the
Typographical Union, in the chair, re-
fused to permit President L. c.
straube, of the suspended union to
speak from the floor
The insurgents who are opposed to
Lynch as president, wanted the same
privilege on the floor, but this was
also denied,
President Lynch stated that Presi-
dent Freel, of the International Stere-
oypers union, alone would be permit
ted to explain the Chicago strike.
The San Francisco Typographical
Union local telegraphed the conven-
ton asking that a strike be declared
against the San Francisco Examiner.
This was referred to a committee.
A resolution protesting against the
proposed increase in postal rates on
second class mail matter was adopted.
The anti-administration forces start
ed fight over the report of the law
committee on a resolution to print de-
oisions in appealed cases, but after a
prolonged speech by President Lynch
they we're completely routed. The
committee reported unfayorably on
the plan. declaring that it would cost
100000 a year to print the reports.
This statement was questioned By
the insurgents" who also disputed
some of the statements made by
Lynch. Despite all opposition, how
ever, the committees report was fin
ally adopted.
