Horse and Man Fall in Shaft

While working near Belmont, H.
C. Stimler had a narrow escape from
death. The skip ran off the track
throwing the horse into another shaft
nearby and Stimler fell on top of the
animal. The heavy harness suspended
the horse about half way down the
shaft and Stimler was enabled to
climb to safety. In the meantime
the harness had slipped over the
struggling animals head and it drop
ped a distance of about 80 feet to the
bottom of the shaft, escaping ap-
parently uninjured. 1t required the
entire force in the mine about four
hours to get the horse out Of the
shaft.

RATS IN MINES

The Mining and Scientific
Press says that rats have been
fed by the Chinese in their coal
mines as guardians. When there
is danger the rats leave the mine,
and the miners, noticing their
departure, fee also and are saved.
From a French paper we learn
that an inventive American has
made the rat more useful in coal
mines. This use depends on the
susceptibility of the rat to fire.
damp and other poisonous gases.
A vigorous rat is chosen and put
in a cage containing a tread-mill
that is connected with a little
dynamo. When the rat runs on
the tread-mill the electric current
generated lights a lamp; a morsel
of strong-smelling cheese is the
attraction for the rat. As long
as the rat is we'll, he runs and the
lamp shines, but when the gas
weakens him the light grows dim.
Thus the proportion of gas can be
told by the candle-power of the
lamp. If the lamp goes out. it is
a sign that there is danger, and a
general alarm is given. Natural
ly the rat does not work all the
time, but has his regular shift; so
several rats must be provided.
In order to keep the rat in good
condition his food must be careful
ly regulated; overlooking makes
him lazy.

New Plan Inausurated For Distributing
Government Maps

Government wraps
The finest and most accurate maps
of the United States are those made
by the United States Geological sur
vey. This branch of the Government
service prints more than 5000 maps
aday, or about a million a year. most
of which are sold to the public direct
from Washington. Book and station
cry oncern in the larger cities OF
course handle these maps. but here
tofore there has been no way in which
the inhabitants of the small towns
throughout the country could get
them except by sending to Washing
ton. Now, however. postmasters in
towns and villages have the permits
sion of the postoffice department to
handle these maps. When the Geo.
logical survey prints a new map it
sends a sample copy to the postmast-
ers in the area covered, with the sug-
gestion that they tack it up in a
conspicuous place, where every
one calling for mail a see it, and
order a small stock for sale to
those who wish to buy the map. This
saves the purchaser the annoyance
of sending to the Geological survey
and waiting until the map is received
from Washington and also saves the
expense of postage. The postmaster
himself receives a small commission
on each map sold.
Many active postmasters are hand
ling the maps, and that their fellow
citizens appreciate the accommoda-
ton of being able to buy government
maps at the postofice is shown by
the number sold in this way. The
record of maps sold shows that a
postmaster in Minnesota heads the
list so far, having sold 125 maps the
first month he handled them.
Only postmasters in regions that
have been recently mapped have
been asked to handle the maps, but
the Geological survey willingly ans
wers inquiries made by other post
masters, sending them a sample copy
of the map that covers their district,
if it has been mapped.
1t is believed that this new plan of
distributing the Government maps
will benefit all concerned; it will be
a convenience to the purchasers, it
will bring the postmasters a small
commission. and it will increase the
sale of the maps.

MAY MAKE NATIONAL F PARK OF GRAND CANYON

 Secretary of Agriculture D.. F.. Houston, in a letter to Secretary of State, Oscar F. Cole, states that ow- ing to the fact that the Santa Fe Land and Improvement, Company built the road along the rim of the Grand Canyon with. their own funds, when congress refused to provide funds for it, which work was done under permit with an agreement that no autos should be used the road will remain closed against autos.
 A memorial was introduced in the legislature by Senator H. E. Camp bell, asking that the rule prohibiting automobiles from using the rim road be recfnded.
 The secretary also advises that making a National Park of the Grand Canyon is under coAsideratfon, in the levent that it is made a National Park, the governme ment will maintain the road and other rules may be made at that time.

Buried Alive

Buried Alive
 On Monday afternoon at the Ryer- son mine a cave-in occurred which buried a Mexican miner under about fifteen tons of ore. The huge mass fell without warning and the man had no time to make his escape. The first aid team came to the rescue at once and after few minutes reached the Mexican whom they expected to find badly crushed and with life extinct but instead it was found that although badly bruised and cut about the head he had suffered no serious injuries. He was patched up by the first aiders and sent to the hospital for further repairs to his minor in juries. His escape from instant death is remarkable considering the tons of rock with which he was covered.
