Shetland Ponies In Mines,

f- WV 81 wv "
While thousands Of Shetland ponies
furnish amusement for the children Of
England, just as they do for the boys
and girls Of the United States, a much
larger number are used In the English
coal mines. The tunnels Of the Eng
lish mines are not nearly so large as
those Of the mines in this country, and
1t is necessary to have very small po-
MES to draw the coal cars from the
pits. The only alternative would be
to enlarge the tunnels, a plan which
would entail too heavy an expense to
be even considered by the English
mine owners. The limit in height Of
ponies used by the English miners Is
forty-three inches. They prefer to have
them not oyer thirty-eight inches high,
low, stout, compact little fellows. In
the old days it was a common practice
for English miners to use mother pc.
MES when they were not in a condi-
ton to stand hard work. But a law
was passed some years ago prohibiting
the use OF female ponies Of any age in
the mines. Recently another law was
passed prohibiting the use OF male po-
nies that are not at least four years

ner, Matt Halder. Lawrence Jacob. Bar
ney Jacob and Mike Kulpp. The. stock
vas placed in quarantine but If the
owners look after dipping carefully it
will not be long before the horses are
all right again. The existence Of
mango was discovered in the locality
of Renville about a year ago. Dr.. An
derson also found q cas- Of CHAMBERS at

LUCINDA DuPvl$ Dies
FORMERLY EMPLOYED here


ploye of the PRESS. died in the George
town University hospital in Washing
ton. D. c., on April 18th, from the
effects of an operation for infiamation
of the gall bladder. She lived for about
a week after the operation.
From the Herald and News of RAN
dolph, w., the following extracts are
taken:
Hers was a brave spirit in a frail
body. Never strong, never really well,
she was yet q person of remarkable
energy and ambitions. with a resolute
determination which overcame the
obstacles of weakness and ill health
and led to the accomplishment of
what to a less courageous soul would
have been impossible. When her ap-
pointment to a position as monotype
operator in the government printing
Office came last fall and she left the
first of November for Washington, she
was hardly we'll enough to 60, but. re-
fusing to yield to the feebleness of the
flesh, she assumed her new duties
with the efficiency and s%ingleness of
purpose that always characterized her.
She was at her work Monday. the 18th
inst, when an overpowering attack
forced her at last to drop her task and
she was taken at once to the hospital to
be operated upon three days later. All
that the best of skill and the best Of
care could do in battling for her life
proved of no avail but hourly in her last
days the kindly ministrations anG
thoughtful attentions of the ~acQuaint-
ances she had made in the city gave
her reason to feel that. though she
might be far from home, she was still
among friends.

ance and it is expected that their in
terest in the competition will stimu-
late greater interest among the
parents. Bad roads have prevented
many children from obtaining pro-
per education and have even pre-
vented doctors from reaching the
side of rural patients in time to save
their lives.
Any child between the ages men
toned, attending a country school,
may compete. Only one side of the
paper must be written on; each page
should be numbered; the name, age,
and address of the writer, and the
name and location of the school
which he or she is attending must be
plainly written at the the top of the
first page. The announcement of
the competition has been sent to the
superintendent of schools in the
rural districts. No further informa-
tion can be obtained from the Office
of Public Roads. This announce
ment should be plain to everyone
and all children will thus start on {
basis of equality.
