Fall of Roof In London Mine Causes an Appalling Accident. One of. tho most appalling accidents In tho history of Clearfield county min ing by willed four minors lost tholr lives and two tnoro wore torriblo Injured occurred at London Minos about 7.30 Krlilny morning, April .1, 1903. The (lead are : Oeorgo Truux, motorman i Edward Eye, driver ; Earl Waggott, trapimr i Win. Phlpps, boss driver. Tho Injured are : Theodore Cyphcrt, trapper, leg broken and other Injuries, probably fatal John Mcchan, badly bruised. Thotrnck walker reported a fall of earth on the ropo road and tho men word sent . in to clear tho track of the obstruction. When they roaehod the plnco, tho roof was carefully tested and thought to bo sufo. Then tbe work of clearing the track began and the men hnd been at work about 20 minutes when, suddenly and without warning, the roof crushed in upon them and buried them beneath Its awful weight. The alarm was quickly given and willing hands set desperately to work to extri cate tho lifeless bodies. Whon the brawny workmen removed the rock and slato from thoir dead comrades, and saw their horribly mangled bodies, It was a flight to miiko the stoutest heart quail. Kdward Eye and George Truax had received the full woight of tbe slip and thoir heads wore horribly crushed, and death was Instantaneous, Earl Waggot, tho little trapper,lay near his comrades and although not so badly mutilated, his life had been instantly crushed out. Wm. Phlpps mot death In the same manner As his comrades and his death probably was instantaneous. Theodore Cyphort, tho other little trapper. Is so badly Injured that his llfo Is despaired of ; ho sustained a broken leg and other injuries ' John Mochan rocoivod numer ous bruises and a brokon leg but will recover. . It is singularly sad that all the un fortunate miners were young mon rang ing In age from 16 to 28 years. Wm. I'hlpps who was 28 years of age resided at Rochester Minos and leaves a wife and throe children ; Ed. Fye was 20 years old and resided at the "Patch." He leaves a widow and two children ; George Truax was aged 27 years and loaves a widow. Ho was a resident of tbe 1st ward ; Earl Waggett was 17 years old and resided at tbo "Patch." Theodore Cyphort resides with his parents in the 1st ward, and Is 17 years of age, and John Mochan, single and 24 years old resides at Rochoster mines. Dullols JCxprem. Delegates to State Convention. . Under the rules governing the Re publican party in Jefferson County dele gates to the State Convention are to be elected at the Juno primary In off years, and at the I'Ybruury primary In Presi dential and Gubernatorial years. This your the ditto for the titato Convention, May 27, whs fixed after the February election, and b.drig too eui ly to permit the election of delegates at the June primary, it win decided that, with the permission of the majority of the county committeemen, t!ie dtlejjiiU elected lust year, namoly, J. H. Hendion, of Brookville, Edwin Hoar, of Reynolds vllle, and T. M. Kurtz, of Punxsutaw ney, could be authorized to serve. With this end In view County Chairman Kurt, has addressed letters to all of the committeemen asking for their ap proval of this plan. A large number of them havo already answored In the af firmative, and as there appeurs to be no particular contest for' tho Slato offices to be filled this fall, It Is expected that this expedient will receive tbe almost unanimous indorsement of the commit teemen. It will save tho expenses of the two meotings of the county com mittee and one special primary election necessary to tbe choice of delegates, and stll. permit Jefferson County to be represented In the State Convention.

Can They Be Transmitted From One Brain to Another. Tho remarkable performances which are being produced by an English pro fessor named Dudley, In different cities in this country, and who will bo here April 17 and 18, has brought up again tho discussion of thought waves and tho ox tont to. which they can act ually bo controlled. Scientific opinion has always been divided on the subject, some holding that ll Is possible for one mind to throw off waves of thought by tbo vibration, of tbe other, while other! deny this proposition. Since the dis covery of such forces as are Illustrated by the X ray and" Wireless tolegraphy, tho thought wave theorists have rather had the best .of the .argument. Prof. Dudley's experiments which have been causing such a commotion In sclontiflo and occult circles', are doscrlbod aa the most marvelous feats of second sight ever altomptcd In public. Whether or not thoy aro actually what they claim to be, gebulno second sight demonstra tions, is something that nono of the witnesses seem able to say with author ity, but no trickery has been discovered so far as known, and the wondorful na ture of tho exhibition is taken by the partisans of the thought wave theory to bo good ovldcnco on thoir side of the argument. Prof. Dudley's experiments aro conducted through the medium of a young woman whom ho calls Princess Iola, and who Is, be claims, tho most perfectly . developed clairvoyant the world has ever known. It Is assorted that she actually sees whllo blindfolded the things which others soe or havo seen with thoir eyes. The pictures on the brains of others, so it is claimed, are conveyed by thought waves to her brain and sho "sees' the same things. It. , A Great Sensation.
