The automobile has come to stay

cident happens with one of them
there is cry that there must be

limit should be vigorously enforced:
perhaps license would HELM, but we
have all seen enough in the past
few months to show that no pre-
caution ordered by law is enough;
A few weeks ago a young lady In
broad daylight was knocked down by
an automobile in an uptown street
because Just before reaching her the
chauffeur gave the wheel of his ma
chine to one who knew nothing
about running 1t and 1t Zigzagged
until 1t struck the lodging woman.
What good does license do when
given to hoodlum who wants to
take his girl joy-riding?
What the laws should be we do
not pretend to say, because we are
convinced that many that are pro-
posed would be entirely ineffective.
But in this connection 1t is clear
that pedestrians should be most care
full. No person in the night should
attempt to cross one of our broad
streets diagonally.

1t is clear now that the little lady

OF the country. the United States bu-
reau of mines has Just issued Il num-
her of important precautions in re-
gard to the proper ventilation of the
mines
J. j. Rutledge. mining engineer of
the bureau, declares that nothing IL
more important to the safety and
health of the miners than the proper
ventilation of the mine. In the event
that the mine contains gas. the life
of every man in the mine is involved.
He declares. therefore. that it is the
duty Of everyone in the mine to sec
that the ventilation is always good.
The carelessness of any man. at any
time. in leaving trapdoors open may
render useless the best ventilating
system and thus lead to loss of life
and property.
The most efficient ventilating sys-
ten is the one that, with the least
velocity through the main air course,
furnishes at the working faces a
cnrrent containing almost as much
oxygen as normal air lover 10 per
