SAVE TRAPPED MINERS
New Device Perfected is Being Tried
Out by Mine
Men.

PITTSBURG, Pa, Aug. 7.-Mine
operators of this vicinity today are
planning to try out a device recently
perfected here at the United States
bureau of mines by which it is be-
lieved miners caught in cave-ins
might be saved
The device is a portable telephone
with headgear resembling that worn
by telephone operators. 1t is planned
to have at least one miner in every
group of workers or in every isolated
section of a mine wear one of these
gears to which is attached a trans
mitter and representative plate and
a wire which reaches outside, thus
leaving a medium for conversation
with persons outside the mine. The
wire is always laid along the bottom
of a shaft or bore protected so that
falling earth or mineral will not
break it.

LONDON, Aug. 7.-Taken by anG

acs, of New York, eve have seen many
things in Europe which wotI help
us in the hospitals OF America, but
we have more advanced systems and
paraphanalia in the United States as

lions. In France, from scientific

elect their convalescents too much.
A relapse fifteen times out of twenty
in Europe means death, a percentage
that is twice or three times as high
as it is in the United States.'
American Nurses Best.
DR. Sigmond Breitenfeld, of the Ger

seeing nurses in hospitals all over the
Old World, 1 take off my hat to our

BoehIing a Conner.

Boehling's history is short. He has
made his all this ceason, but if he keeps
up the pace he has set during his first
real try-out in the big leagues, he will
rank among the greatest pitchers of
his time or any other persons time.
He was the first pitcher to pass the ten
cOnsecutice victories mark and
chances are bright for him to hang up
more to his string of straight wins.
Boehling has won every game with
which he has been held solely respon-
sible. If this is carefully figured out
either by arithmetic or algebra it will
be found to mean that Boehling's per-
centage for the year is 1000. He has
faced every team in the league and lie
whipped each in turn.

DIARY OF FATHER TIME

l have often wondered why some
one does not revive the negro min
streI performances so popular about
70 years ago. 1 mean the refined and
almost classical performances as
those given by the world-famed
Christy Minstrels, not the buffonery,
ragtime and cracked voices of which
we have had enough and to spare. S
It was in 1912 in the city Of Buff
falo that the first performance of
the Christy Ministries was given and
proved such a success that limitations
sprang up all over the country, some
good, and some bad. One of the best
was known as the Congo Ministries,
inaugurated by Charlie White in 1874
and two years later playing to crowd
ed houses in New York. We have no
