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

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.

"Only a Mask.
Many are not being benefited by the
summer vacation as should be. Now,
Sotwithetanding much outdoor life, they
are e if any stronger than they were.
The tan on their faces is darker and

what tones the nerves, perfects digestion,

BOOKS, MAGAZINES, Etc.
The August issue of The Theosophical Path
(Katherine Tingley, Editor, Point Loma, Cali
fornia), is an exceptionally attractive one. 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.
