Rip Van Wrinkles Hunting Trip.

NIP van 1nkle duNC1ng lrlp.
Einar Holt, who is a member of the
freshman class writes the following
comments on the subject entitled Grip
Van Wrinkles Hunting trip"
One bright morning Rip strolled
off for the mountains. He carried a
gun on his shoulder and was accom-
panied by his dog, Wolfe. The day
was hot, so Rip became exhausted
after having trudged along for a few
hours. He threw himself down on a
green knoll and ate the food he had
taken with him. When he had rested
out he decided to return home as it
was growing late. But just as he
was about to descend he heard a voice
calling his name. The sound seemed
to come from the glen, but as he
could not see anybody he started to
go home. But no soone had he
turned than he heard the same voice
again and just then saw a figure COM
ing up the hill carrying a key of bev-
erage on his shoulder. He made
signs to Rip to help him, though Rip
was rather shy at first, he at last
consented to help him. They strolled
along for a long time, taking turns
at carrying the key. They soon
reached a hollow which looked like an
amphitheatre. When they had en-
tered Rip perceived a gang of men
playing at nine pins. The contents of
the key were poured into fagons and
the men left their play and started
to drink from the fagons. After
drinking they again resumed play.
Rip watched for a while and did not
fear them now, though he did at first.
He even ventured to taste the bever-
age and kept on drinking till he fell
asleep. When he awoke he found
himself on the green knoll where he
had rested the day before. In place
of the polished firelock he saw a
rusted one not fit for hunting at all.
His dog was gone too. He whistled
for him but was only answered by
the cowing crows sailing above him.
He decided at last to visit the place
where he had been the night before.
When he reached the place he could
not find any opening, or any sign OF
the amphitheatre at all.

JAMIS]N MINE NO. I
WILL Be FLOODED.
Decided Not to Take Any
Risks in Reopening This
Property.

1t was decided at conference
which was held at BarrackVille yester'
day by Earl R. Henry, chief Of the
State Department Of Mines, in con-
junction with the officials Of the Jaml'
son Coal and Coke company, that as
a precautionary measure the NO. I
mine Of that company, which exploded
last October, should be flooded before
the helmet men, who have been work
ing on it for the past three weeks,
should proceed further with their work
The men who attended the conference
included General Manager R. H. Jami
son, of Greensburg, Pa; Chief Engl
neer c. E. Cowan, General Superin'
tendent John NJ. Wolf and inspectors
Samuel M. Mcmahon and John McDer'
mott.
After considering every phase of the
work that is before them for the sue
cessful reopening Of the mine, the men
decided that the mine should be flood
ed, not that they have any suspicious
that fire is raging in the depth Of the
mine, because circumstances point TO-
ward the opposite, but merely as a pre-
cautionary measure for the helmet men
who are to continue the work that has
already been started.
The company is sparing no expense
in the work of getting the mine into
working condition again and it is De-
cause of this that they are suffering
the delay and expense for the safety Of
the men who are to carry on the ez
ploring of the exploded sections of the
mine.
Machinery will be placed upon the
ground at the earliest possible date
and the work Of boring the hole that
will carry the water to the bottom will
be begun at once. 1t is expected that
by Monday everything will be in readi'
ness for the new task that is before
the men in charge. The hole will only
have to be bored seventeen feet as the
officials have decided to use a hole
that was drilled some time ago. This
will aid greatly nthe work and only
a short time will be required to com.
plete the distance to the bottom.
