WORKMAN MEETS DEATH

Michael Shelveleff, 29, met death in the Alaska Juneau Mine this morning at o'clock by the ex- plosion of blasting charges.
 The dead man was setting off the blasts at the time of his death, it is said. Three charges were to be fired, two were discharged and workmen waiting for the third and failing to hear it, investigated and found Sheveleff dead. The man had apparently met death by the second explosion when he was going to set off the third Inves- tigation revealed that he had start ed from the first charge and had probably slipped, becoming uncon- scious and meeting death as the second charge went off.
 The deceased was a native of Russia. He had been in the en- ployment of the company about four years, the time since he came to Juneau. He is survived by his mother in Russia and a brother Alexander in Paris.
 The body is at the Carter Nor tuary awaiting the completion of funeral arrangements.

Hunters Send Game
 To. Hungry Miners

ABOYNE, Aberdeenshire. Scot land, April 23.-Red deer of the Scottish highlands are being slaughtered to feed starving British miners and their families.
 Rich sportsmen, guests of Lord Glentanar, are doing the killing on the Glentanar estate of 10000 acres of the finest loch, river and wood land scenery in Scotland. Rarely has sport in this country been combined with such useful service in providing food for destitute peo- pie.
 There are thousands of deer on the preserve, and droves of them are coming down from the hills during bitterly cold weather. Two hundred carcasses are to be sent to Belshill, near Glasgow, for needy miners. Lord Glentanar himself supervises the hunting and ship ment of game.

HARTFORD, Conn, April B. A safety device to save 800 Areri- can workmen's hands from being crushed annually is announced by the Travellers Insurance company.
 The apparatus is intended to pro- tect the hands of job press feeders. These presses perform the smaller jobs" such as printing cards and handbills. They function by press ing tbc card of paper against the type, two plates closing together almost as if they were jaws.
 While these metal jaws arc open, the operator lays the blank paper on the plate corresponding to the lower jaw. The skilled part of the trade is in thrusting Iha and into this metal mouth, and with drawing it before the press closes.
 The Travellers company estimates that pressmen put their hands into these openings about 270,Oo0 600 times daily, and that 800 hands get crushed annually.
 They rate this job prass as one of the 10 most hazardous riaclil. .es in industry, the outstanding aeci- dent producer of the printing trades and the cause of one tenth of all of printing's annual accl- dents. The cost of these accidents is reckoned at more than $l,OoO 900 yearly
 The safety device is Q flat steel band, surrounding the edges of the lower jaw" or platent. When a hand is caught, this band is the first object to receive pressure, which automatically trips the press. That is, the jaws do not quite close and the hand is unhurt.
 Engineers of the insurance com pany made the device and the an- nouncement says:
 "The Travellers has applied fol a patent-not, however, with the intention of manufacturing or sell ing the device or restricting the use of it in any way, but rather fol the purpose of preventing anyone else from acquiring sole control ot it. Permission to manufacture anc install the device is given to any one that may wish to do so.1
