It is only the explo-ion of gas. in which hundreds of lives ale destroyed, that a.vaki :is the general public to the dangers of coal mining. Statistics show that the rate of mortality among miners from the above cau-e is Jo per cent., and the num ber of de.u lis from fall- l(f roof and coal I form Cl p.-r cent. The general public I scarcely ever hears or takes note of the j number of deat. is from these sources be cause they are taken oir one by one and n.v spap.rs do not gi ve pul.iicty to them. The wi iter, after a long observation in coal regions, is con vinced that the death rate among coal miners caused by defect ive ventilation exceeds that caused by both tin- above sources of danger. Among the worst en. ini. s to the life and health of the miner is the gas known chemically as car bonic hi id. It is caused by the breathing of ani inals and t he burning of light-, and is carried into the "workings" from the surface by water. Lights will not burn in an atmosphere that contain- ten per cent, of tlii-ga-. If the miner remains in air thatcoiitaiusmoretl.an ten p.-r cent, he would soon become a-phyxiated. It effects the heart and lungs and causes consump tion, catarrh, asthma, etc. A person eat: tell a miner by his sunken eyes and pallid face. The miner endures a miserable life in ihi- foul atnio-phere until he is incapaci tated for work or until death relieves him. There an- a few miners who refuse to work in a mine when it is had. and sometimes they report the condition of the mine to the proper authorities of the law. They are known to the operators as agitators and law -breakers. Explosive gas is con-i.lcred the greatest danger that the coal miner has to contend wit h. but this element of danger has more effect to cause good Ventilation than all the laws and inspectors that have cost the slate a million of dollars. The reason for this is the se f-interest of the operator. Wlien an explo-ion occurs it destroys the Fhomas E. Watt. Pas-.-nger ! '" ",M H'""""' " dollars to re pute. Train leaves, lo:-'.' A.

Since then a meeting of the cit izens of Spangler has Ix-en held and a so lieting coniri.ittee which was appointed has secured on subscription the amount of the loan asked, and the Spangler Improve ment Company has agreed to donate two acres of ground for the site.

Wilson remonstrated, and threatened to slap Coy's mouth. This angered Coy. w ho drew a large knife and began whetting it on his shoe, remarking to a companion that he would "cut Wilson's heart out." As soon as services were over and the con gregation was leaving the church, Coy thrust the knife into Wilson's abdomen. Physicians believe the victim will die.
