The death list is rapidly growing. As the bodies were removed from the mine, living and dead, they were piled on the green about the colliery. Many of the injured lived but a short time.
 Hundreds of women, men and chil- dren, gathered about the tunnel. AS they lifted the blankets from the bodies women fainted, men lost their nerve, and children ran away in fright The bodies of scores were removed to the morEues, where the work of identification is being carried on with little success.
 The death list was made large by the flames and the sulphur fumes which filled the tunnel. The fire did not last long, but 1t was long enough to make a heavy death toll. Many of the men were killed outright, parts of their bodies being found in the wreckage.
 Rescuers got into the mine with hose and played streams of water on the flames. While they were doing this the cries of the dying and tho injured were heard above the roar of the flames.
 Today's catastrophe is next to the greatest this section of the anthracite coal fields has seen.
 Mine officials and state officials were on the scene promptly. but their eff forts were directed solely to the work of rescue. There were enough men to meet all needs for the work inside the mine, but the chief trou- ble during the early hours was In

About Mr.. Stephens

Columbia, Missouri, has launched
an innovation that should spread into
every community in Missouri. One of
her citizens, E. w. Stephens, had been
a leader in every community enter
prise in recent years and had done
more than any other man to bring the
town to its present enviable position
as an ideal place in which to live and
raise children. His neighbors got up
community banquet one night last
week, making him the guest of honor
and telling him face to face how much
they appreciated the fine things he
had done for the old home town. How
much better, We thought, to place
these flowers in this good mans hands
while he was yet living than to lay
them upon his grave when he was
dead. Why don't Paris do something
like this for the elderly men whose
sacrifices and foresight have meant
so much to those of us who are now
on the active list? Why not have a
banquet some night with these grand
old citizens as guests of honor and tell
them. face to face how much we love
and appreciate them, Just as Colum-
bia did Cor E. w. Stephens last week?

GOT GOOD IDEA FROM HUNS
french Scientist Has Adapted Idea
Which Made "Big Bertha" For
midabIe to Aerial Travel.

When the Germans accidentally dis
covered that projectile fired from a
big Bertha normally designed for a
range Of from Is to 80 miles would
achieve a range of about three times
the normal by simply elevating the
muzzle so that the projectile would
travel through the rarefied air in the
high altitude they unwittingly con-
tributed an idea which may revolu-
tionize aerial travel. The resistance
to progress of an object in the upper
reaches Of the air Is very much less
than In the denser atmosphere Of the
lower attitudes, but the rarity Of oxy-
gen in the higher attitudes reduces
the efficiency of the gasoline engine
by as much as so per cent
To overcome this, remarks the Van
;couver Sun, q French inventor has at
.tached an automatic air condenser to
the exhaust, and air with normal
content of oxygen Is thus supplied to
the engines, which, retaining their
normal power, drive the plane through
the rarf.fied air at greatly accelerat-
ed speed.
It is now said to be possible, with
this improvement, to cross the Attain
t.e in one day.

Only One Explanation.

1t was at an evening party. A
young man with tall collar and pale
hair was reciting poem. He had
ground out AZ stanzas-and the end
was not yet.
: "What's going on?" whispered the
guest who had just come in.

:poem," answered the pessimistic per-
son.
: "What's the subject-the motive?"
queriedy the late conner.
II have forgotten the subject" re-
piled the pcssimisAic person, 'but I
suspect the motive must be revenge.
At least / can't see any other reason
for it."
Increased production is, Of course
the solution Of the present problems
due to scarcity of food, clothing and
housing, but it will take some time fol
all producers to eradicate from theil
systems the poison Of the old, evil for
mula instlled by greed, that it is bet
ter to make a high rate on small pro
duction than a low rate on large pro

Spiders Hard to Tame.

A spider is one Of the hardest crea-
tires in the world to tame, according
to scientists who have made the at
tempt. They say the insect hasn't any
idea of time, and to seek its confidence
one must have unlimited patience.
One scientist, after gaining the conf
dence of spider by feeding 1t flies,
sought to test it's senses by fooling it
with q piece Of meat, the size Of fly,
rugged up with fly's head and wings.
The spider stopped in its web. about
an inch from the camouflage. and later
couldn't be gotten from It's nest to
even look at the thing. Other spiders
evinced the same wariness. although
It is not known whether it was their
sense Of sight or smell that was keen
est. One scientist destroyed spiders
wen and stayed up all night to watch
IT make another, believing it worked
at night. At 6 a. m. it ran out Of a
window without attempting to work
before his gaze.
