OF SAME ORIGIN AS COAL
Wood Believed to Be Basis Of Jet, Sub
stance Long Used for Various
Ornaments.

Jet is sort of Ignite or anthracite,
often cut and polished, which has the
peculiarfties in weight and texture Of
the hardest kind of anthracite. 1t has
been used in Britain since before his
toric times, and was common in the
bronze age, from which times have
come Jet beads, buttons, rings, armlets
and other ornaments.
julius Caesar alludes to the abund-
ance Of Jet in Britain. and Jet orna-
ments are found with Roman relics
in them. The monks used jet for ro-
sary beads at Whitby Abbey, and at
Whitney, where it was found in the
greatest abundance. 1t occurs in ir-
regular masses in hard shale known as
Jet rock.
Often microscopic examination dis
closes coniferous wood in the compo-
sition of jet. 1t is probable that Jet
was developed when masses of wood
drifted down a river, rotted or became
water logged and sank out at sea, be-
coming gradually buried in n deposit
Of fine mud which hardened eventually
into shale. Sometimes drops of BIZ
tumin are found in jet cavities, which
seems to confirm the suspicion of its
wood origin.-Detroit News

INJURIES; WAS PICNIC
CROWD.
Newspaper Union New. service.


Denver, Sept. 7.-Eleven persons
were killed and 102 injured In q head
on collision between two Denver & In
terurban railroad trains at curve
near Retreat park, one-half mile north
Of Globeville. Eight of the injured
probably will die. Crowded to its ca
pacity and travelling at a high rate of
speed, car No. 15S, drawing trailer,
which had just left Globeville for Ell
dorado Springs. Both cars were
crowded with holiday merrymakers,
many of the passengers on the inbound
car being coal miners from the Louis
vile district who were coming to Den
yer to attend the Labor day picnic at
Lakeside.
The impact telescoped both cars.
The front end of car 1853 plowed fif-
teen feet into the front end Of the out
bound car.
Attracted by the terrific crash, hun
dreds of nearby residents rushed to
the scene. Police headquarters was
notified and the injured were taken to
hospitals in automobiles, ambulances
and patrol wagons.
Passengers occupying the vestibule
of the inbound car were either instant
ly killed or seriously injured. Several,
including the motorman, leaped as
they saw their peril. Two of those who
leaped We're killed.
Passengers in both cars were thrown
into a oil al hoanc hoin0
outright. Some were knocked uncOn-
scious and seriously injured, while
scores received fractures, decorations
and minor injuries.
The police department was notified
of the accident by c.. G. Edwards,
passenger on the outbound car. Rush.
ing to n telephone in the home Of FL
the scene of the crash, he gave the
first notice of the disaster.
Scenes of widest confusion fol-
lowed the crash. Women and children
screamed for help. Uninjured passen-
gers worked feverishly to extricate
the wounded and dying pinned be-
meath the debris
lle WreckaEe was StreWn along lne
right of way for many yards. Motor
lists and residents helped in the res
cue work. Ambulances We're sent
from hospitals and police headquar-
ters. A squad of soldiers, commanded
by Capt. John c. Gray, kept back the
crowds Of curious.
Every sort of conveyance was
pressed into service to carry the dead
and wounded to the hospitals and
morgues.
Most OF the casualties were among
passengers on the inbound car, al
though few in either train entirely un-
hurt. Only failure of the cars to top
pie from the track prevented a much
higher death toll.
Use of the brakes by both motor
men proved futile. This was said to
have been due to the high rate of
speed at which the inbound car was
travelling.
Conductor G. w. Grenamyer, 60, the
oldest conductor on the line in point
Of service, was instantly killed when
he leaped from the inbound car.
