7S Killed, 10 Hurt
in Mine Explosion

continued From Page One
explosion did not cause much loss Of
lie, but that flames and lack of air
caused the heavy death toll.
Rescuers were quickly sent into the
mine; they carted in hose and pIayed
streams of water on the flames. This
was necessary before the work of rescue
could be carried on with any success. The
flames were conquered within n short
time The work of taking out the dead
and ana the injured was under way quickly.
The bodies were taken to the surface
and piled on the green. They began
to count up quickly. Along with them
were the injured and many of these
lived but few minutes after reaching
the fresh air.
Hurried calls were sent throughout
the valley for doctors. nurses and am
balances. Owing TO the early hour the
responses were somewhat slow, and il
was not until three hours after the ac-
cident that the required number OF
.lurses and doctors was obtained. There
was some delay in getting supplies be
. cause the stores were not open and the
company supplies were inadequate fol
the needs.
The ambuanccs quickly began to re.
move the bodies. Morgucs in the city
were filled quickly. The injured were
rushed to hospitals. some of them dying
on the way.
The work Of Identification was
started. but this was slow and uncer
| tain. The bodies of so many men were
so badly burned that Identification was
impossible.

minister's OF the Peace Conference has
adopted the principle that the Neither
lands shall not have to make territorial
concessions. It appears that the Dutch
are willing to grant Belgium certain
rights the Belgians are demanding.
The council of four today gave fur
ther consideration to the German coun :
ter proposals to the peace treaty terms,
these occupying the time during the
forenoon session of the body. The
afternoon was devoted for the most part
to the question Of the rights of minori
ties in the small nations

will be able to send reply to the coun :
ter proposals before the end of next
week, according to the Paris Office of
Reuters limited.

treaties are in the balance and these
are anxious times at The Peace Con-
ference.

the treaty of Vienna 104 years ago.
President Setz declined to make any
comment on the treaty, sending out word
to the correspondent by a uniformed at
tendant that he was delivering speech
to his colleagues.
Press Denounces Terms
The Vienna newspapers denounce the
peace terms. They had not prepared
the public for such great territorial
losses as are involved in the terms, and
had led the people to believe that Aus
tria would be treated better than Ger
many.
A big meeting of protest has been
called for Friday. There is some re-
currencc of the talk of Bolshevik
regime.
Much anger is shown against the
Italians. French. Czechs and Jugo-
Slavs. The loss of Marburg and Klag
enfurst is taken especially hard. The
Arbeiter Zeitung says:
"All has been taken from us without
respect to President Wilson's fourteen
points, which is cruel and provoking. y
The Reichspost says: 1.-The condi-
tions could not have been worse

She was walking by the ieweler $
home with her mother, father and
grandmother. Mr.. Hammond picked
up the box and shook it. 1t weighed,
he said today. between forty and fifty
pounds. Mr.. Hammond said that at the
time he thought it had been dropped
from a delivery wagon. His first
thought was to take it home, but he de-
cided to leave it in its place.
Twenty minutes later, after the mem
bers of the family had returned home,
the explosion occurred.
This box was believed by the police TO
have been the bomb that wrecked the
jewellers home. Two others of the
same construction are also believed to
have been placed at the church rectory.
The explosive used is said to have been
INT. The investigators hold the
opinion that it was set off by acid,
rather than by clockwork. This theory
is advanced because of the failure of
the police to find any particles of metal
at the scenes of the outrages.

Next Week Everybody will Get up an
Hour Earlier by the Sun, But
Time viii be Same as
Before.

Next sunday, at o'clock in ths
morning, all the clocks in America
are to be turned ahead one hour.
All you have to do is to get up, put
on shin guards, dodge the tin toys the
baby has left on the floor, and turn
the minute hand around one complete
revolution.
You may wait until morning il you
| desire, but in that case YOU will have
| the feeling all the after part of the
night that your clock is an hour too
slow. If you are one fthose fore
handed persons, you may turn up the
clock just before you go to bed, but
then you may be kept awake until
two o'clock by the guilty feeling that
your clock is too fast.
The Hour Napoean Dreaded.
You must not simply push the hour
hand ahead one figure space, If your
clock strikes, for In that case 1t will
strike wrong.
Buff your clock does not strike, it
is a kimple matter to move the hour
hand only.
The unearthly hour Of 2 o'clock in
the morning was selected for the
change, because at that time there
are fewer railroad trains on the road
than at any other time of the twenty
four hours
The last Sunday in March was Sc
lected for the change, because that
is close to when spring begins, and
the length of the sunshine has passed
the middle of its frightening.
Helps some; Harms Some.
The whole scheme was made by a
law of congress over year ago to
help the city people work longer in
their gardens and give motorists
longer evenings to chase the strolling
pedestrian off the street crossings, |
and kill chickens on the country roads. |
The farmers who own the chickens,
and have to work by the sun anyhow,
tried hard to have the Jaw repealed
this spring, but the filibuster of La
Toilette and others prevented it in the
last hours Of congress.
Now there is nothing to do about it |
but turn the clocks ahead There is
no change in the actual time-only in
the clock readings, and recognition of
this, fact will save lot Of argument |
that occurred last spring.

Important to Railroads.

The railroads which operate with
time as the most vital essential part
of their methods are taking immense
pains to make the change.
Every one of the million watches
and clocks used in operating rail-
roads, from the big clock in the gener-
al managers office to the silver turn
ip in the pocket Of the section fore
man, must go forward an hour on
Sunday night.
All watch inspectors, jewellers in
the cities. are receiving letters warn
ing them to be very careful to turn
forward every watch they get hold of,
and that the men will be instructed to
visit them to have the change made.
They will keep their stores open
for railroad men long enough to make
the change in the railroad watches.
