BREATHING ROCK DUST.
Factory Arrangements at Niagara FANS
Have Devised Means for Re-
moving Dust.

Niagara Falls. \. Y, Feb. 9.-Over
10000 900 tiny particles of dust, as
sharp as ground glass, are breathed
into the lungs and air passages with
every cubic foot Of air in some OF the
factories in the United States, accord :
ing TO survey made by the pubic
health service here.
Such dusts breathed into the lungs
are never expelled. Photomicrographs
show the tiny particles to be exceed
ingIy sharp and Jagged and chemical
tests prove them to be practically in
soluble. Work under such conditions
invites respiratory diseases and makes
real health hazard. Similar investl-
cations in chemical factories showed
that laborers were frequently exposed
to poisonous fumes and gases.
The investigation WAS made at Mag
ara Falls because plans were engaged
in the manufacture of abrasives, chem
ieals. gases, electrodes, earbons, metals
and allows. In all of the factories the
laborers were found to be exposed 70
dangers which would eventually in
capacitate them for further work. For
tunately over 60 per cent of the labor
in these plants seeks new employment
monthly and the result of exposure to
such dangers is not evident as it would
be If the workers remained at the same
work for longer periods.
As a result of the survey industrial
engineers devised means of removing
the dust from the air and minimizing
hazards from fumes and poisonous
gases. In spite OF the fact that the
installation of such devices was ex-
pensive, factory arrangements imme-
diately put them into use

100000 ARE
STILL HELD
Hungarian Prisoners of
War in Siberia in Pit
liable Condition
SOME AWAY FROM
HOME SIX YEARS
Hungary Unable to Find
Funds Necessary to
Bring Them Home

Budapest, Feb. 9.-Former Hunga
rian soldiers who have returned to
Hungary after escaping from Russian
prisons in Siberia state there are 200,
600 Hungarian prisoners of war in that
country and that their condition is pitt
able. Some of them have been away
from home three to six years, and the
Hungarian government is unable to find
the 100000 crowns which would
be necessary TO bring about their re-
patriation.
Another returned prisoner pictures
Russia as country of desolation,
where many country districts are fam
ne-stricken. He says people drive sew
eral hundred miles to get provisions,
and refugees are robbed by red
guards unless they are bribed. He de-
clares bribery is the only way by which
a person can get across Russia.

WAR SHATTERED
SIX MINES OF LENS
Will Be Long Time Before Coal Car
Be Taken From Them Again
Greatest Work is Getting
Water Out.

Paris, Jan. 22.--Although all possible
efforts TO reconstruct the war-shattered
mines of Lens have been and are being
made, there is now no hope that SIN
gle ton of coal will be extracted before
1921. In fact, the task OF bringing
Lens back to its former prosperity Is
so immense that it is not expected
that the town and its mines will re-
turn to anything like their former
state before 1928 or 1920.
Provided that the work can be car
ried on without interruption, it viii
take all 1920 to clear the underground
workings of the debris with which they
were choked by the Germans. Most
of the workings, and all the deeper
ones, are flooded.
A plan for drawing OF the water
has been arranged. The reconstruction
and repair of the tubing will be car
ried out by German workmen, and the
cement for the purpose will be brought
from Germany The pumping out OF
the mines is expected 10 take at least
three years II il hoped that by next
wear it will be possible to extract coal
from the first galleries, which are only
900 feet deep but it is not expected
that the water will be pumped out
of the lower workings, which run down
to 2,250 yards, until 1928 or even 1924,
The railways in the Lens district will
not be completely repaired till 1921.
OF the 500 workmen's dwellings be-
longing to the miners society, not a
hundred can be repaired. -Four hundred
concrete huts are 10 be built in which
il is hoped to house the 5000 workers
who will be employed in the clearing
Of the pits for the next two or three
years

DEPORTATION or
UlNDESIRABLES
Not an Innovation in This Country
Pilgrim Fathers Shipped Dis
gruntIed Ones Over

seas
Boston, Feb deportation of "un-
desirables" is not an innovation in this
country. The Pilgrim fathers, confront
ed with the problem of dealing with
indictments among them, shipped the
disgruntled ones overseas. There was
no soviet ark in those days because
there were not so many troublous spir-
its, but the fathers action against the
men who sought to spread dissension
was summary.
Rear Admiral Francis T. Bowles, re-
signed, in describing the experiences of
the Pilgrims, quotes from Governor
Bradford's story of the Plymouth col
ony to show how things were done in
those days.
"The reds in the Plymouth colony"
Admiral Bowles says, "were represent
ed by John Liford and John Oldham,
who conspired together both against
the church and the government of the
colony, endeavored to entice others
with them, and wrote defamatory let
tiers to the friends of the colony in
England As the governor says, both
oldham and he Hiford) grew very per
verse, and showed a spirit Of great
malignancy, drawing as many into fac
ton as they could; were they never SO
vile or profane, they did nourish them
in their doings,'
Goldman having refused duty when
called upon by Captain Standish, it
was determined to place both Liford
and Oldham on trial and all members
of the colony were called upon to be
present. Liford and Oldham were CON
yicted and the court sentenced them
to be expelled from the colony. Ulti-
mately both were deported.
oldham once came again to the col
ony, and having created serious
breach of the peace, Governor Bradford
says, they comited him till he was
tanner, and then appointed a gard of
musketers which he was to pass throw,
and everyone was ordered to give him
thump on We brich, with We but end
of his musket and then was conveied
to We waterside where a boat was
ready to cary him away. Then they
bid him goe and mende his maners.

FEAR OF BoLSHEvISM

Shanghai, Jan. 5.--Fear Of bolshe-
vism entertained by employers u
Shanghai is factor which is making
more difficult the hard lot of the hun
dreds of Russian refugees who have
been fleeing in increasing numbers out
of Siberia into China.
The growing colony of these Russian
refugees. whose numbers swelled after
the Siberian capital of Omsk fell into
the hands of the bolsheviki, has become
a problem in the city of Shanghai.
one handicap upon their efforts to OBJ
tain employment has been the reluc-
lance OF employers to give work to per-
sons from Siberia believed TO have been
exposed to the bolshevik infection.
Members of the colony here. which
numbers several hundreds, have estab-
Ished a school where English is being
taught to the newcomers. At first
one or two Of the colony itself acted

unteer teachers came forward and
classes are now being held day and

Unwillingness on the part Of many
of the Russian newcomers to recognize
the Kolchak administration as the gov
eminent of Russia has kept many from
registering at the Russian consulate.
