Mother Kills Three Children and Self. A mother, driven insane by worrying over the serious illness of one of her children in Philadelphia, cut the throats of three of her children and then drew the knife across her own throat. The woman and one of the children were dead when neighbors and a po- liceman forced their way into the house. Another child, a seven-year-old boy, dled a few hours after he was taken to the West Philadelphia Homeopathic hospital. Mary, aged nine, also died in the hospital. The dead are: Mrs. Alice Brogan, 6147 Callowhill street; her three-year- old son, Thomas, and her seven-year old son, Victor. Joseph, aged fifteen years, and Gem trude, two years old, were all that es caped from the knife which the woman had wielded so terribly. John Brogan, Jr. another son, aged twelve years, is in the Homeopathic hospital suffering with pneumonia. It is thought that grief over his condition may have prompted the mother's rash deeds. Parcel Post Changes. Further to popularize the parcel post system with the public, Pestmaster General Burleson announced that after Aug. 15 the weight limit on packages would be placed at twenty pounds, ine stead of eleven pounds, as at present, and that a sharp reduction in charges would be made. He announced also that on the same date the “banking by mail” feature would be introduced into the postal savings system. The reduction in charges on parcel post for local delivery is from 6 cents or the first pound and 1 cent for each additional pound, to 5 cents for tha first pound and 1 cent for each addi- tional two pounds or fraction thereof. For delivery in the first zone the rate will be reduced from 5 cents for for ed. Nineteen men are dead and as many more are injured seriously, some of them fatally, as the result of explo sions in the East Brookside colliery of the Philadelphia & Reading Coal and Iron company, near Tower City, Pa The first accident was caused by two tons of dynamite used in driving a new tunnel exploding prematurely. With a tremendous roar the massive mine pillars 1800 feet below the ground were shattered. The dead are: Daniel M. Ginley, fire boss, Tower City. Henry Murphy, fire boss, Tower City. John Farrell, foreman, Tower City. Howard Hand, laborer, Muir. Superintendent John Lorenz, Tower City. Harry Hand, miner, Muir. Jacob Kopenhaver, Reinerton, shaft man. Thomas Behny, miner, Reinterton. John Endise, Carreni Camani. Victor Seane. Cevedla Groziano. Four unidentified Italian workmen. Two have not been recovered, and there is no hope of their being taken out alive. They are: Daniel Farley, fire boss, Tower City, and John Fess ler, Tower City. A rescue party started into the mine immediately, and they had hard ly been lowered into the shaft when the second explosion followed. This was caused by the flames reaching a pocket of gas. In the second disaster Superintendent John Lorenz and Har ry Schoeffstal, the fire boss, who led the rescuing party, were overcome. For five minutes the bottom of the mine, which is reached by the deep est shaft in the anthracite coal region, was like a furnace, with all the min ers within reach of the flames lying prostrate on their faces to avoid the breathing in of the fumes. The terrible heat, however, either scorched the life out ol moat of them or the concussion and flying rocks killed them. A socond rescue force was then formed, and they got the bodies of Su. perintendent Lorenz and Schoeffstal besides those of three miners. Lerenz was brought to the Pott: town hospital, where he died. Schoefi- stal is fatally injured. The three min- ers revived almost as soon as they reached the surface. The explosion set fire to the mine and the rescuing force worked in hel mets containing stored oxygen. Nine of the bodies of the dead were so scorched as to be unrecognizable, and the only way to ascertain thelr names will be; from the records of those who went to work and did ‘nol return... op The driving of the tunnel where the fatai accident occurred was under the direction of private contractors, Port land Bros. and most of the employes killed were working for these con tractors. Comparatively few employes of the Reading company were killed. Motor Racer Errs; Seven Dead. Seven persons are dead, two are fa tally burned and eleven others are seriously injured as the result of a motorcycle accident at the Lagoon motordrome, in Ludlow, Ky. Odin Johnson, of Salt Lake City, captain of the Cincinnati team, which was contesting at the motordrome, for some reason that probably will remaln unknown, drove his cycle to the ex treme top of the circular track, crash ed into an electric light pole, broke i off, and the contact of the live wire with his machine exploded the gaso line tank, throwing the burning liquid over a score of spectators. The dead are: Odin Johnson, of Sall Lake City, the motorcycle racer; Wil liam Davis, aged five years, Ludlow, Ky.; Henry Andrews, Cincinnati; Mrs. Willlam_ Michaels, Ludlow, Ky.; Miss Ethel Buchtman, Covington, Kjy.; James Carter, Cincinnati, and William Patterson, Cincinnati. The fatally burned are: Orville Hart, Newport, Ky.; and Herman Da vis, Cincinnati. That a large number of others, whe cannot be located, were burned is al most a certainty, as several of the drug stores in the vicinity of the place were kept busy for an hour after the accident dressing the burns of those wh oescapea without serious injury. When the spectators who were on fire began to run the audience rose as one, many women fainted, and it was with the greatest difficulty that a stam pede was prevented. Bangor, Pa., Has $650,000 Fire. A fire entailing a loss estimated al $650,000 destroyed the entire plant of the Flory Magufacturing company, ex cept one small brick building, the grist mill and grain elevator of the Flory Milling company, and two dwelling houses, in Bangor, Pa.

While connecting up switches at the Harwood plant of the Lehigh Naviga tion and Electrict company at Hazle ton. Pa., Arthur May and Walter Fey, both of Hazleton, and employed by the General Electric company, were elec trocuted. No one saw the accident, but it Is thought May came in contact with the 25,000 volt wire leading to Berwick. Both young men were students at July 12, A.

A mere glance at the contents: "Peace and War,” “The Modern Platonists and Theosophy,” “Brighter Britain,” (illustrated) Symbolism of Indian Basketry,” (illustrated), “The Ruined Abbeys of England” (illustrated), “‘Personality in Art,” etc., is sufficient to arouse wide interest, while its splendid illustrations are at once a de light and education in themselves. These include authorized reproductions of four of the most celebrated pictures in the Walker Art Gallery, Liverpool: “FaithfullUnto Death,” “Dante and Beatrice,” "Ruth and Naomi, and “The Goose Girl.” For the sake of these splendid illustrations alone—truly works offart—if for nothing else, the magazine issworthy of a place in every home. There are also} fine views from Colorado, and from Munich, Germany. New Advertisements.
