COAL MINER KILLED
BY AUTO EXPLOSION

SULLIVAN, Ind, Aug. John
Everhart, 80, a coal miner was
killed here yesterday when he step
ped on the starter of his automo-
bile and an explosion followed. FL
mer Hale, 80, also a miner is be-
ing held in connection with Ever
hart's death.
The theory expressed by the
authorities is that dynamite had
been placed under the front seat
of the automobile. The starter
wires were then connected with
the dynamite, it is believed, and the
cap of the gasolene tank removed.
This was done, the authorities say
so that if the driver was not killed
in the explosion fire would follow
and he would be burned 40 death.
Hale who is an expert shot-firer
denied any knowledge of the affair

Star Playing of McGinnis
Decides Game for
Queen City

1t took Burlington, composed
of the cream of present and recent
stars of the University of Yer
mont mines, eleven innings to de-
feat the Fairbanks A. A. on Cen
tennial Field Saturday. Cuddy
Murphy twirled sufficiently well to
warrant his capture of the contest
but his mates failed to back him
up at opportune times and the
Queen City contingent with Nc
Ginnis in the leading role finally
showed over the winning run 8 to
4.
One long reason why the Scale
town lads found the Burlington
defense so impenetrable, was Doc
Newton, leading University of
Vermont slabber. Doc pitched
gilt-edge ball throughout the
fracas, Ted Butler being the only
St. Johnsbury boy who could
fathom him. Doc finished the
