The dust of rock containing free silica,

setting in the lungs of the miners, is re-
sponsible for a heavy annual death rate
from tuberculosis. The bureau Of mines
found in an investigation of conditions
in the Butte, Mont, copper mining dis

Butte miners was nearly thirteen times
as great as that of residents of the State

Washington, Nov. As a first lieu

Late in August, 1918, the regiment
was relieved in Alsace and started
marching to the st. Mihiel sector. Our
missiong having been completed, we
proceeded to Blercourt, arriving there
October 4.
In the Argonne, while we were adj
vancing, enemy machine gunners and
artillery concentrated a heavy fire on
us. Some dropped into shell holes.
I was forced to take cover in a dummy
trench, not deep enough to hide the
pack on my back. They kept up a
heavy string of fire, knocking dirt
and rock over me and puncturing my
raincoat.
Wrote Farewell Note.
I wrote a farewell note on the back
of a little photograph of a dear loved
one, my wife. However, the enemy
being pushed by Yank troops, suddenly
ceased firing. At daylight, october II,
we were ordered over the top for COM
bat reconnaissance. A terrible bar
rage forced us to dig in. The enemy
was entrenched and shrouded by a
heavy fog. I saw the necessity for
quick action and signalling several
men to follow me, I crept, by detour
ing, on machine gun position.
I slid my rifle forward, raised on
my elbows and killed five gunners in
the pit. One enemy gunner attempted
to retreat. killed him with my
pistol.
I dashed to a cover of brush and
ran into a German officer in hiding.
He attempted to disarm me. I killed
him with my automatic.
There was continuous firing. The
enemy had been creeping thru and was
sweeping the woods with fire. Having
lost control of my company in the
dense wilderness, 1 continued to adj
vance by taking cover.
They Shouted Hammered.
I located another machine gun after

Movie Actor Again Gets Delay
on Manslaughter Charge.
His Trial Is Set Over Until
November IA.

San Francisco, Nov. Roscoe
Fatty" Arbuckle once more staged
a court appearance here today.
He was present when the man
slaughter charge against him growing
out of the death of Virginia Rape,
film actress, was called before Super
ior Judge Harold Louderback. The
case went over one week.
In making the motion for the con-
tinuat.on, Gavin McNab, chief coun-
sci for the film comedian, declared the
delay was not Of the defense's seeking
but was by agreement because of the
two holidays this week.
Assistant District Attorney F'itzger-
aid concurred in this and Judge Lou
derback postponed the opening of the
trial.
A combination of circumstances en-
tered into the delay. Two holidays
this week-election day and Armistice
day-promised to break up the trial
had it started as scheduled. In addi-
ton, there had been doubt whether
the defense attorneys would be able to
gather certai neVidence in the east in
tim. This they succeeded in doing.
but District Attorney Brady. gathering
counter evidence. was not able to COM
plete his investigation by today
Arbuckle. who with his wife has
been living quietly for the past two
weeks at a downtown hotel. was on
hand for the trial. By agreement,
however when the case was called be-
fore uperior Judge Harold Louder
back, a motion was scheduled to be
made seeking the delay and in view
of the agreement of both sides, Judge
Louderback was expected to set next
Monday as the date for the opening
if the trial.
The fact that today's appearance
was to be purely formal, did not pre-
vent a crowd from gathering at the
hall of justice early.
Despite the fact that Arbuckle has
been living for two weeks within q
stones throw of the scene of the gay
hotel party out of which the tragedy
resulted, but few persons knew that
the noted film star was in the city.
The two weeks just past probably
have been the quietest in the screen
comedians life, at least in recent
years. He has been seen but little
outside his hotel.
