Federation of Clubs.

Through the columns of The Repub-
lican, Mrs. Henry d. Ross, president
of the Arizona Federation of Women's
clubs, endorses a plan of the depart
ment of household economics of the
General Federation, urging all club
women to consider what home eco
Monies has to offer in the hope of
mitigating some of the evil effects of
the rapidly increasing cost of living.
The clubs have been asked to lay
aside less urgent programs and make
a study of this vital question in be-
half of the home.
The economic pressure" will not be
without good results, according to
Mrs. Ross, who believes it will teach
women practical economy and perfect
housekeeping. In her plea Mrs. Ross
sounds the warning: Let us sensible
in all things"

13 MINERS KILLED BY
DYNAMITE EXPLOSION
IA Men Were Being Lowered in
Cage When Accident
Occurred
BY Associated Press

Scranton, Pa, Dec. 9. - Thirteen
mine workers were killed in the Dia-
mond shaft of the Delaware, Lacka-
wanna and Western Company here to-
day when a box of dynamite being
lowered into the mine with fourteen
men exploded, wrecking the descend
ing carriage and dropping the victims
to the bottom of the shaft. The one
man who escaped alive is Martin Be-
linski. driver boss.
The accident occurred when the men
were going to work and at time
when the entrance TO the mine was
crowded with men waiting to be low
cred to the various levels. There is
always a scramble among the men to
get on the carriage and for this rea-
son the number of men who were on
the cage and their identity was not
known for several hours after the acci-
dent.
The carriage hands descended to
about 100 feet from the bottom Of the
shaft when from some unknown cause
the dynamite exploded. The cage was
ripped TO pieces and all the men Were
dropped into the water and mine re-
fuse at the bottom of the shaft. The
escape of the driver boss is considered
almost miraculous by the mine officials.
Bodies Badly Mangled
II was an hour before the first of
the victims bodies was recovered.
Nearly all the victims were badly
mangled and some were torn 80 pieces,
showing that they were instantly
killed by the explosion.
The news of the accident spread
rapidly. The part OF the city in which
the mine is located is less than half IA
mile from the business center. Thou
sands gathered at the head of the
shaft. The field about the place filled
with women and children imploring
news concerning the victims.
Among the victims was Thomas
Thomas. OF West Scranton. a veteran
miner. who was so decrepit that he
was helped into the carriage by one
of the men who descended with him.

though the announcement gives few
details, references to the capture of

up of a French trench by Germans
tends to show that the engagements
now in progress is being contested
furiouSIy. The statement refers to the
advantages of the allies from Arras
southwark along the Aisne, on the
heights of the Meuse, i'm the Argonne
and in the Vosges. Roughly speaking.

FORCES At NACO ARE
BEING STRENGTHENED
Firing Across American Border
Causes Wilson to Take
Action
By associated Press

Washington, D. c., Dec. 9.-No ag-
gressive action on the part OF the
United States is contemplated in the
sending OF additional troops to Naco,
Arizona. An official statement was
issued to-day at the White House.
After a conference with President
Wilson, Secretary Tumulty made the
following statement:
1T has been thought wise to
strengthen the forces at Naco because
of the reckless carelessness of the
contending factions there in failing to
control the direction oc their fire. OF
course no aggressive action is con-
templated."
