DEAD MINERS STREWN ALONG
 MINE ENTRIES
Rescuers Find Battice Made
 by Entombed Miners to Shut Out Deadly After Damp

SPANGLER, Pa, Nov. !6.-"There are dead miners strewn all along the entries down there,' said J. J. Bourquin, leader of the United States bureau of mines rescue, as he came from the shaft of the Reilly mine near here tonight
 We are doing nothing to bring out the dead" he continued ''We only stopped with them long enough to see that the spark of life had fled, and then moved on in search of the living Quite bit of mine remains to be explored, but l can say if there are any more live men in there it won't take us long to get to them
 Bourquin and his men spent the greater part of the afternoon in the workings. They were equipped with oxygen helmets and so eager to force their way through the gas that they made seven trip without pauing to have the ga tanks re-charged.
 Behind a brattice, hastily con. structed by the entombed miners to shut out the deadly after-damr from the heading where they had taken refuge, the rescuers founc four men alive and one dead.
 A little later they came across anotehr brattice, made of mine cars and bearing the legend burned on with a miners lamp there are 29 men behind this. ''The air was so bad here that Sally" the bureaus pet canary bird, used in testing the air. died.
 The rescue crew, of which there are four made up of five men each tonight were hunting for Pat Flanna gan, the fire boss. He went into the mine at 3:30 o'clock this morn ing and reported the mine was safe He went down again at GAO o'clock and was not seen afterward.
 Early in the evening mine rescue crews from the Maryland Coal and Coke company at St. Michael. Penn, and the Pennsylvania Coal and Coke company at Johnstown joined the federal rescuers and the Cambria Steel company crew. They stated a United States rescue car was ex- pected here from New York stat" tomorrow.

SPANGlER, Pa., Nov. G. (By the Associated Press) - Between fifty and sixty miners were killed in the Reilly mine of the Reilly Coal company near here, this morning, according to an official estimate made public at midnight by rescue workers and company officials.
 This estimate was arrived at af- ter rescue workers who had search ed the explosion wrecked mine for two hours reported they believed there were no survivors in the mili workings.
 Thirty-one rescued men are in the Spangler hospital.
 Officials of the company are still uncertain as to the exact number of men who went to work just a short time before the blast.
 They believe that the total was between 90 and 95. Rescue men who had attempted to count the bodies they stumbled over in the workings declare they counted ap- proximateIy 50 but said it is prob- able that few more men perished in the unexplored chambers.
 They decided at midnight to re- move the bodies before daybreak.

Bats Abhor Jazz.

In his experiments with bats DR..
Campbell has come across several Pc
euliar characteristics of the animal
For instance. bats abhor jazz. A
phonograph. jazz record and a
small boy stationed on the top of a
hunting lodge infested with bats so
startled the animals in the early
morning hours as they returned to
roost that they few some two miles
away. entered another hunting lodge
and never returned to the one in
which they had been living for two
years past. The explanation of this
Is that the ear of the bat is so deli
cate that discordant or strident noises
are to them the most irritating of all
sensations.
So finely tuned is the ear drum OF
the mammal that no sound below
high c will vibrate the drum. DIR.
Campbell ascertained this with the
use Of a tuning fork A farmer in
east Texas was losing great num-
bers of cattle from the effects os the
mosquitoes thriving in and around
the watering tanks on his farm. He
Imported bats and soon had a thriv-
ing colony. but the mosquitoes did
not decrease in number. An inv .s-
tigation showed that the mosqui-
toes sang a note below high C ard
the blind bats were unable to hear
and catch them.

rids the world of one of its
deadliest diseases. The dark and Sc
cretive bat with its wings Of velvet
and sable performs this service while

has found its decrease when science
protects and shelters the bat as the
natural enemy of the malarial mos
quito.
Preparing a home for bats and
safeguarding the life of each bat with
a fine of S. to 5000 was the result
of DR.. Charles A. R. Campbelrs dis
coyeries and scientific work with bats
and mosquitoes. 1t was in San An

the first bat roost was built for the
purpose of ridding the city of the

why they were immune from the dis
ease that wrought such havoc with
human beings. The results of his re-
search have received worldwide at

1t took a great many years for DR..
Campbell to be Sure of the cause for
the difference in the susceptibility of

The great difference in the anatomy
OF the bat was found to be in its
relatively much larger spleen. 1t is
to this origin that DR.. Campbell at

consume large numbers OF engorged
mosquitoes without being affected.

The malarial disease destroys al

tuberculosis and cancer, according

lives, and the malarial mosquito lives
| in every country in the world that
has a warm season, including even
Alaska. In tropical countries the
lives of the natives are actually
shortened by the existence of infected
malarial mosquitoes. and they are
chiefly responsible for the fact that
| foreigners often lose their lives in
Central Africa and other hot ell
mates. The service to humanity
and the protection of property made
possible by DR.. Campbell's research
is of inestimable value. according to
physicians and scientists who have
observed the efficacy of the bat roost
Malaria Reduced by Bat
That the maintenance of a bat
roost is not expensive is proved by
the fact that the fertilizer secured
from the roost may be sold at 500
to 5000 a ton, and single roost pro-
duces more than two tons a year.
Such were the figures on the bat roost
at Mitchell's Lake, where millions of
bats live. The value of the fertilizer
Is due to the iron content: ton con-
tains more than three pounds of iron.
This is the amount of iron found in
two and quarter tons OF blood.
Does this mean two and quarter
tons of mosquitoes are consumed
annually? Perhaps their weight
amounts to more than that. At any
rate they are consumed in countless
numbers.
