DEADLY FUMES.
Continued from Page One.)

Before erecting the outer bulkhead at
the main tunnel, late today, six men
went to the inner bulkhead, 800 feet from
the mouth, to examine it Shortly aft
erward one of their number staggered
out, overcome from the gas that had
leaked through the partition. Deputies
rushed inside and carried out the other
five, all of whom had dropped within
the tunnel. They were revived but 1t was
striking testimony of the deadliness OF
the gas that fills the mine.
The gases, tonight. were being general
ed in only the lowest level of the mine.
Thousands of pounds of wet gunpow-
der was consumed to generate what Is
known and feared by miners as BLACK
damp" Sulphur. coal tar, formaldehyde
and black oil were the chief ingredients
used in addition.
Two hundred men are out of work In
the lower level as result of the
smudging operations. The operators are
said to be suffering a net loss of more
than $1,000 day. They announced, how
ever, that they would gladly remain idle
a month in order to bring about the
death of Lopez. The smudging will con-
tinue for u hours more, perhaps for "a
hours. 1t is thought the deputies will
not be able to enter the mine before Fri
day night.
Thousands of persons, today, attended
the funeral of Deputy Tom Mandrich,
who was shot by Lopez. Saturday The
feeling against the Mexican miners is
strong and speakers at the funeral coun-
selled those of other nationalities to be
law-abiding.

Blond or Brunette7

The Blackboard plan makes another
large generalization in types, with
coloring as the determining factor.
1t rates human beings on a percent
age basis in the order of their blond
ness-the pink-eyed, unpigmented al
bino having a standard Of 100 per
cent, whereas the negro, who Is not
blond at all, stands at the foot OF
the class, with zero to his credit.
Certain definite mental and physical
qualities accompany these varying
grades. The albino, for example. is
said to be the least stable person
in the world; while the negro, consid-
cred as a race, has always been noted
for his mildness. the readiness and
even pleasure with which he yields
to stronger Wills than his own, his
placidity-the very qualities. of course.
that made him possible and useful

AS we go up the scale of blondness,
says DR.. Blackford, our qualities Of
restlessness, of aggressiveness, OF ex-
plosive temperament, of egotism and
changeableness increase; but as we
become brunette we display the more
deliberate, easy-going virtues. The
blond enjoys the spotlight-the ex-
element of the crowd, high position;
on the other hand, the brunette Is in
terested more in essentials, in AMI
mails, in nature and his small but
intimate circle of friends; he tends
to conservatism and Is systematic In
his habits. The blond loves variety
and change; is able to carry on sew
eral different interests successfully at
the same time. The brunette dislikes
change, is not so fond Of variety, and
Is far more likely to be found spe-

RAW WOOL LOWER
IN THE LONDON
MARKET
ALLEGED STATEMENT OF Will
SON coNTRADlcTED BY A
WoolGRoWER.

Washington, April 22.-(Special.)-
Administration leaders in the house, in
making their fight to retain raw wool
on the free list, quoted President Will
son, as stating that free wool would
not hurt American woolgrowers "as he
understand wool was as high in Lon
don as in the United States" This
assertion was today called to the at
tention Of S. w. Mcclure, secretary
Of the National Woolgrowers' associa-
ton, and he made this comment:
IF the president made n such
statement as this, he is grossly mis-
informed about the state of h wool
market. Over a long period of years
wool has averaged from our to seven
and one-half cents a pound higher in
the United States than in any other
market in the world. IN order to de-
termine the relative price of wool here
and abroad l a sent representative
samples to the Boston and the Lon
don markets. All Of these samples
ranged from five and one-quarter to
seven and one-third cent..a pound
higher in the United States than they
did in London. These tests were made
last fall and winter, and prove beyond
dispute that under free wool our prices
would have fallen from five and one
quarter to seven and one-third cents a
pound. OF course, at this time the
price of our wool is falling so as to
reach the London free-trade basis for
our 1918 clip will not be manufactured
until the present free-trade bill has
become a law
when the Wilson bill was passed
in 1894 the woolgroWer was then as
sured that it would not hurt him, as
the foreign price was as high as the
domestic price, but regardless of such
assurances, the Wilson bill was fol-
lowed by a reduction of so per cent In
the price of wool which brought dis
aster to the sheep industry and all al
lied industries. The sheep industry
never recovered from free wool in 1884,
and free wool in 1913 will wipe it out
of existence.
Even had the president been COR
rect in stating that wool was as hlgh
abroad as il this country, it would not
be an argument in favor of free WOOL,
for if a tariff on wool does not raise
the price of our wool it canno then be
doing anyone any harm n we know
that it raises an average of Sl6.000,OO0
in revenue which should not be thrown
away unless some compensation is to
be gained somewhere.
IF wool is to be placed upon the free
list it must be done with the full un-
Outstanding hat it will destroy the
American sheep industry and seriously
embarrass all allied industries. The
ruin of the sheep industry will be seri-
ously felt throughout the nation, for
be it remembered that there is $780,
900, 900 invested in our sheep BUSH
ness"
