THE ECCIES NINE HORROR.

The Ecces mine disaster adds another 10 the long and CHASTITY
record o YES Virginia mine catasnophies. A careful study Of the
eonoHions u the Eecles mine indicates that this disaster might have
been avoided. had the mine operators sincerely complied with the
mine laws OF this state. West Virginia mine laws and inspection repu-
iahons contemplate the maintenance OF two separate exits for every
operating mine. Al Eceles. two mines operating in different veins
were connected S o that the operating shaft of each mine served to af-
fora venelation and a separate exit for the other mine The two
naftsw were about 800 feet apart. One shaft led to the Sewer vein of
coal and one led to the Beckloy vein of coal. These veins yer about
40 feet apart. From the upper to the lower vein. additional TO the
main which reached the lower vein, a small stairway n tunnel
ied' making the second exit for the workers on the lower vein. When
explosion occurred in the lower vein, that stairway was blown
literally to pieces; the main shaft was destroyed, and the unfortunate
workmen in the lower mine had absolutely no chance to escape Rv
n expenditure OF a very small sum of money both of these mines
could have been made safe.
IS a matter OF fact, both mines we're constructed and operated
in violation of the spirit of the West Virginia laws. If the inspection
bureau had done its duty, the owners would have beeen compeIed
long ago TO have corrected the conditions which complied only tech
nicany with the statutes, and which did not insure that safety which
the laws contemplated, and TO which the employees we're entitled
No mine ought to be allowed to operate in West VIRGINIA which
does not have at least one emergency exit, additional TO the main sbaft
and So equipped that it may not be easily destroyed or injured. The
law OF this state contemplates exactly such mine construction and
such mine construction is possible. The hunger for the dollar has
caused the owners of many mines either to evade or absolutely N
violate this safe and sane regulation. The Eccles mine disaster mus,

The brain is our mental power

mental voltage We carry.
So long aE we are live wires, so
long as we transmit power, radiate
love, give out sympathetic warmth.

cuently observed, is net only as use

The man or woman blessed with
imagination or anticipation possesses
a sort of prophetic vision, a kind OF
instinct, so that they look upon life
with prescience, strength OF character
and courage. This possession Is not
a gift of chance, but cultivation that
comes with useful activities.
Inspiration is the indicator of we'll

Light That Is Lost In Space.

If one divides the known nebulae il
groups according to the dimensions OF
their apparent diameters and one also
notes their intrinsic brightness, it is
clear that their apparent diameters
should decrease as the distance in
creases. Their brightness, on the other
hand, will diminish with increasing
distance only if interstellar space alb
serbs light.
AS the result of great number of
observations a correlation between
brightness and apparent diameter has
been observed, and is SO marked that
1t is impossible to put it down to
chance or to some systematic error.
1t appears that there is a real ab-
sorption in space, and if more pre-
else descriptions of the nebulae were
available the law of absorption could
be assigned.

Tells Time BY Tasting the Hours.

A curious "gastronomic clock" for
telling the time in the dark is said
to have been made in the old times
by an ingenious Freedman. He in
stalled a large fiat clock dial beside
the bed, on which the hours each had
a small cavity.
In each one he placed a different
spice. For instance, the figure u
held unique and the figure six cloves
and SO on.
To find the time he followed the
short hand with the finger and then
tasted the contents of the cavity op-
posite, then did the same for the
long hand, and had he tasted pepper
and nutmeg, for instance. he knew
that the hour was $3.50.
