the bad air strike them and both ran
for safety. Mr.. Thorn was in the lead
and was SO overcome that he fell three
times and then lost consciousness.

farther back i'll the mine than Mr..
Thorn.
Both men were found about seven
o'clock in the morning. They had gone
in about midnight When found Kid
we'll was dead and Thorn was also
thought to be dead, but when crried
to fresh air he revived. He had fallen
few feet from door, which had he
been able to reach and open he would
have had good air and been safe.

In Africa deep shafts are sunk, the

The rock has the peculiar quality of

In Arkansas, however, except for a

Town Shoe Repairer, Friend,
Philosopher and Guide of
Vice President.
HELPS To SHAPE HIS CAREER
Friendship Begun in College Days
Continues Through Early Strug-

nence in Politics.

Northampton, MasS.-James Lucey,
member of shoes, is pegging away in
his shop here with one eye on the
newspapers for word of how the na
tional capital treats Calvin Coolidge,
his one-tme associate in local politics,
and now vice president.
When Vice President Coolidge, just

eras, he gave him distinction that
he was asked to explain. Put Mr..
Lucey down as my guide. philosopher
and friend" he said. And so the
e0bbler is now nationally known.
What the vice president meant was
more or less we'll known to Northamp.
ton folk. The story goes back to the
days when Calvin Coolidge was a soph.
omore ut Amherst college. With shoes
TO be repaired he sought Lucey's shop
on Gothic street in this city, and then
remained to listen to the cobblers
homely comments on the topics of the
day.
Teiped TO shape career
The student found the shoemaker'i
philosophy so engaging that during the
remainder of his college course he
went frequently to see him. AS a
lawyer later young Coolidge opened
offices here, and while he waited for
clients, continued his acquaintance
with the cobbler. Throughout his ca
reer in the politics of the city and
state, Mr.. Coolidge dropped in at the
shoe shop from time TO time to ex.
change ideas with his friend and have

The youthful Coolidge took away
lessons from the cobbler counsellor
Coolidge, the candidate received the
benefit Of his influence, which was
considerable in city politics, and when
he rose to position OF state and
national prominence he still received
the loyal support of the shoe man.
Mr.. Lucey, mOdestly explaining that
Mr.. Coolidge long since passed out
of his range of influence, admits that
he may have been of some help when
the vice president was on the first
rungs of the political ladder.

to make firmer the friendship between
them. NJ. Coolidge had sought the
