tho work of the board for the veor
ended October 81. and carries the re-
port OF the State Librarian to the board
and reports made by assistants to the
librarian.
1t is shown that, exclusive Of apuro.

the decree was in issue. The plaintiff
commended that the decree had been en-
tered before the end of calendar
month after the first publication OF no.
tice of the suit, and that the court
through this error. never obtained jur-
isdiction over the defendants. Judge
Knapp. who wrote the opinion OF the
court, held that the premature entry
was an irregularity which in no way
affected the jurisdiction of the court.
In suit brought under the Federal
employers liability act, Judge Pritch-
ard yesterday held that the deprivng

her rights passed upon by jury on
account of a technical slip would BIO q
manifest miscarriage OF justice. The
suit was that OF James a. Mofrett.
administrator of Cecil j. Cain, against

lower courf instructed the jury to find
for the defendant, because there was
no allegation that tho deceased was a
bachelor. The upper court held that
there. was sufficient evidence OF The
mothers dependence on her son, and
that the technical error of her counsel
should be no bar TO her recovery IL

FOOL HARDY MINERS
INJURED TO DYNAMITE

The sheriff OF Taseweli County Ia in
hot pursuit of about forty miners. who
quit their Jobs in mines IN the--Poca-
hontas fields and HE'D themselves ex-
tremely elsewhere when they learned
that Mine Inspector. a. G.. Lucas had
sworn out warrants against them,
charging violations OF the State law
which prohibits miners from endanger-
ing the lives OF themselves and their
companion workmen by carrying guam
titles OF dynamite. blasting powder and
other high explosives into the shafts
and tunnels.
Inspector Lucas had rounded up
forty mine OF the reckless miners for
prosecution. He made a report by wire
to Commissioner Of Labor James q.
Doherty on a batch OF the cases that
came toA,trial yesterday morning Tho
inspector secured convictions in all the
cases tried.r The Winners convicted. were
fined So and costs each. They arc: H.
II. Harrison, w. r. Keno, John Kelsey,
Albert Scanty and John Buyer. These
men preferred facing the music and
paying the penalty OF their reckless
ness to abandoning their jobs and
evading tho sheriff.
THE conduct of these miners who in
sist upon violating section OF the
State mining law is simply incofnpre-
hensible," said Commissioner Doherty,
commenting upon the latest batch Of
convictions. Why man should haul
enough dynamite around with him to
blow up the whole works around him
l have never been able TO underst nd.
These miners have no regard FOR the
safety OF their own lives or the lives
OF tho more discreet men with whom
they arc working. They have no more
fear OF dynamite than IL 1t were kero-
sene, Judging from the way they lug
the deadly stun into the mines.
We arc doing everything In our
power to compel obedience to the law,
but 1t looks as if 1t were impossible to
eliminate the foolharGy and reckless
workmen from the mines. II is prob
ably the daily handling OF explosives
that gives them their apparent con-
tempt for danger inspectors OF the
department have even found quantities
Of high explosives stored In the dwell
Ing ouses OF toolhardy miners.

That is a counsel of prudence. All right thhhlnS

1t will be counsel Of prudence, too, to be very
chary of such negotiations being proposed by
Senator Overman. Why should we ask Great Brit

Spain to guarantee the integrity of our own posses
