FOUR MINERS DIE
IN MINE EXPLOSION
MAGAZINE AT suaLET NINE ID
MYsTERiousLY SET OFF,
WITH FATAL RESULTS.
Victims Clothing Burned OF and
Their Features Are Badly Die
figured. - Cause May Never
Be Known.

kemmerer, WyO.-Four men are
dead and four will probably die as
the result of the explosion of a pow
der magazine at Sublet No. 8 mine of
the Kemmerer Coal company, twelve
miles north of this city, at 4:45
o'clock Monday afternoon.
The cause of the explosion is a mys-
terry. but it is believed that Matt WISH
newski, q years of age, powder man,
lighted match while In the magazine.
As Wisinewski was instantly killed
and none of the other injured men
was in the magazine Mt the time of the
explosion, the facts may never be
known.
At the time of the explosion three
miners on their way to work had stop
ped at the magazine, which is a con-
siderable distance up hill from the
mine workings, to obtain powder. and
four others who had just come off
shift were on their way to their cab
ms by way of the magazine.
The force of the explosion tore the
mems clothing into tatters and burned
and lacerated them until their features
were almost unrecOgnizable.
So great was the force OF the ex-
plosion that the harness was blown
from a span of mules attached TO a
wagon near by and the wagon was
reduced to fragments The mules,
however, escaped and have not since
been seen in the vicinity of the ex-
plosion.
One Of the men whose clothing was
In blaze ran some distance and
jumped into a creek. He was uncon-
sclous when taken out.
AS soon as the explosion occurred
a big force of men rushed from the
mine to the rescue of the injured and
as soon as possible special train,
consisting of an engine and box car,
was placed ut their disposal, upon
which the injured men were brought
to this city and placed in the Lincoln
county hospital.
Seven doctors were summoned and
did their utmost to alleviate the suf-
ferings OF the patients, ali Of whom
were unconscious.
Shortly after their arrival at the
hospital three of the injured men
passed away. They are r. Imaga. Jap

6be Mystery Of
Hartley House
by George H. DOranc

had made 1t easy for the maid to search
through his belongings. Agnes did moi
know what value was attached to the
manuscript. 1t was her obligation
merely to get It.
The lawyer was to have an autOmO.
bile waiting on the road beyond the
oak grove. He was to be by the small
door, through which the maid escaped.
She ransacked Jed's room in the fash
ion of which l saw the result, and
found the box cunnlngly hidden in his
bedsprings In manner so cOntrived
that except to careful investigation II
seemed to be part of the structure of
the bed.
Agnes said that she had planned to
make her escape after my round Of
the house, but her excitement at find
ing the thing so earnestly sought be-
trayed her into incautiOusness.
The lawyers plan was to take the
road we would think them less likely
to take in case there were pursuit,
and for that reason had gone toward
Norwich. The Spaniard was not ex-
pected to meet them, but he knew
they intended to go through Norwich,
and he knew approximately the time
they would get there if they were sue
cessful. The train which stopped at
Norwich to let off passengers allowed
him to act upon plan which his sus-
picions of his lawyers good faith sug-
geSted. He thought that if the lawyer
saw a barroom light he would stop for
a drink.
He was in Norwich Unexpectedly
to meet the girl and the lawyer. The
scene in the Half Day barroom fol-
lowed. The Spaniard was determined
to have possession of the manuscript.
The lawyer was determined he should
not have 1t. They struggled as the
lawyer tried to drive the car, having
several narrow escapes from the
ditch.
Then the Spaniard, in a rage aban-
dOned all caution and threw himself
bodily on the lawyer, who lost con-
troll Of the car and hit tree. That
was all the girl knew.
l thought a while, trying to make
up my mind what further to do with
the girl. Finally said:
agnes, am inclined to compro-
mise with the law. l will prefer no
charges against you now, and without
fOrecasting the future, may intimate

CHAPTER XII.

The constable looked at me for al
instant as if uncertain whether to re
gard my manner Of getting his nara
tive as altogether friendly.
"YOu were telling what I wanted t.
know" suggested. II came in be

"You see through me, though. l was

and / was pretty near getting sore.
The first thing is the Identification of
the body. For the time being, 1t is in
the station-house."
There was no possible doubt, even
before looked at the face, from which
the constable drew the sheet which
covered the body as 1t lay on bench.
The shabby little lawyers rascally
schemes, timid but villainous-neces-
sary, probably, in his gnarled and un-
happy life-were closed by death.
A deputy Of the coroner was present,
and he took deposition by me which
gave merely the dead mans name,
stated that he had called several
times at Hartley house on business
and that I had no personal knowledge
Of the manner In which he came to
his death.
That was all the authorities needed
Of me. A maid by the name Of Agnes
Mitchell had been given temporary
employment at Hartley house. 1t was
undoubtedly she who was the COM
paniOn of the man who had been
killed.
asked the constable where might
see the maid and whether she was
too badly injured to talk to any one.
He said that she had been taken to
the nearest hospital, which was ten
miles away. He did not know how
serious her injuries were. had my
driver take me to the hospital and
found that as representative of the
family for which she was employed

confidence. We have known that an
uncomfortable gang Of rascals have
bad designs on Hartley house. Evil
IDENTITY you have yielded to some temp
tation they offered you. Deal with me
frankly, and I'll be more than lenient."
She told me that the lawyer had
tried to corrupt the maid, Anna, who
had asked, later, for months leave.
She found that she did not have the
courage for the work. The lawyer
evolved the plan Of introducing a reso-
lutte and reliable woman into the house
by the expedIent adopted. Her in
structiops were to find and take away
a manuscript she would find concealed

against you If may have you removed
to Hartley house, where you will have
every care, but where you must re-
main under sure but unobtrusive
surveillance until we give you per-
mission to 60"
In spite OF her pain the girl smiled.
"You would amuse the police" she
said.
"Why?' / asked.
"Why do you suppose the lawyer
hired me for this 1ob?"
Because you were available, suit
able and easily tempted"
Because am thief and know the
business and have record"
That was facer, but it did not
change the present need.
"You have less reason, then, for
wanting to come to the attention of
the police again"
II have no reason at ALL"
"Then you will come to Hartley
house as l suggested"
"'Sure, If you can get me there with.

l made the necessary arrangements,
and Agnes set out on her return, In
an ambulance.
The servant who opened the door as
we drove up was Jed.

and by the expression on my face that
/ was astonished by his temperance.
This pleased him. When he acted he
liked to produce effects. He looked In
