The Christmas number of the De lineator represents all that is best in the making of a magazine. It is sump tuously illustrated, and the pages that offer the cream of current literature, special articles by leading thinkers and fascinating descriptions of the fashions are decorated most artisti cally. ”My Principles of Giving” is a sub ject of special moment at Christmas time, and wide interest will be fell in what John D. Rockefeller, Andrew Carnegie, J. Ogden Armour, Thomas H. Swope, John H. Converse, Nathan Straus and* Evangeline Booth say con cerning their methods of helping hu manity. The Kipling story for the month is called “Gloriana.” It is superbly il lustrated. Like the other tales of this remarkable series, it is compell ing in interest and haunting in its strange power. CASTOR IA For Infants and Children. The Kind You Have Always Bought Signature of COAL MINE TRAGEDY Nearly 400 Miners Killed in Dis aster at Cherry, 111. CARELESSNESS CAUSED FIRE Hay in the Mine Stable Ca ight Fire and Before It Could Be Extinguished Ignited the Coal Vein. Cherry, lll.—Nearly four hundred human beings, men and boys, it is now believed, are dead in the St. Paul mine here, though experts, who suc ceeded in penetrating the smoke-filled air shaft to a depth of ihree hundred feet, returned with a ray of hope for the grief-stricken relatives of the en tombed victims. That the fire has been extinguished was the conclusion of mining experts and inspectors sent here by Governor Deneen to investigate the calamity and its causes. For more than thirty hours the prisoners were subjected to smoke-filled veins. That life could exist under the ter rible conditions apparent is doubted by many, but because no trace of high temperature was found in the depths of the mine, friends of the miners and even officials of the com pany, have hope that the victims may have found safety in some recess b of the mine. The list of the missing men was compiled in the offices of the mining company, and it reached the total of 385, including the dead whose bodies were taken from the burning cages It is thought that this list might be Increased. One hundred and seventy men who entered the mines have been accounted for. The company had scores of tracers at work round ing up the employes and the officials admitted that the number of men im prisoned was greater than they first had believed to be possible. Among the missing are many Amer icans, who have lived for years and reared families in Illinois. Though the majority of the miners are for eigners, yet all had their homes here, or in the surrounding towns and vil -le§6S The story of the thirteen heroes who went down to their death in the blazing shaft of the Cherry mine, and of the one man who came back, seal ed by fire and blackened by smoke, to tell the tale, is being related here in all its details and forms, one of the most enthralling narratives in the history of mining in this country. Standing out above all the others is the story of Dr. L. B. Lowe, the "man who came back,” the only one of the heroic fourteen who survives to etll what happened. Seven times before the other res cuers began to go down into the burning shaft, he went down alone in a lint, and each time he brought to the surface his quota of saved. Twen ty-five miners owe their lives to him. His hands are badly burned, but he shows no other scars. When asked to describe his experiences, he merely shrugged his broad shoulders, and said: "I couldn’t have done anything more than I did. It is not worth talk ing about. Besides, I am too busy to talk.” The disaster brought to light many unnamed heroes. W. M. Taylor, general superinten dent of mines of the St. Paul com pany, Is a pathetic figure at the scene of the catastrophe. ANOTHER VICTIM OF FOOTBALL Christian, of University of Virginia, Dies of Hurts Received in Game. Washington, D. C. —Football has claimed another victim in Archer Christian, the eighteen-year-old left half back of the University of Virgin ia team, whose injury in the game with Georgetown university was fol lowed by his death at the hospital. An autopsy disclosed that death was due to cerebral hemorrhage, fol lowing concussion. The death of Christian has put an end to all football playing by George town and Virginia for this season. Profundly stirred by the fatality, the district coroner has sworn a spe cial jury of prominent citizens, whose duty it will be to suggest, if possible, some modification of the rougher fea tures of the game, MME. STEINHEIL ACQUITTED. Woman Accused of Murdering Hue band and Step-Mother Freed. Paris, France— Mme. Margherita Steinhall was acquitted by a jury of the murder of her husband, Adolphe Steinheil, a noted painter, and her step-mother, Mme Japy. To some degree sentiment and a stuffy, crowded courtroom favored the prisoner. With the appearance of the jury an instinctive feeling of acquit tal flashed through the courtroom.

Meat cutters and butchers In Jack son, Mich., now have a union. Labor men in Kansas City, Mo., are in hopes of occupying their new labor temple by January 1. The Swedish Government inter vened to settle the dispute which was the cause of the general strike in Stockholm. From April 1, 1891, to Jivne 30, 1909, strike benefits were paid by the International Association of Machin ists amounting to $1,825,004.90. The Austrian Woodworkers’ Union had 115 strikes and lockouts in 1908, involving altogether 26,000 members and 3500 shops, at a total cost of about $95,000. A dispute in the printing trade in Manchester, England, over wages and hours of labor was settled by the Manchester Typographical Society. The strikers were re-employed. The Holland trade unions are or ganizing those workers whose occu pation and numbers offer a field for union action. The unions have al ready done much in the cities of Hol land to raise wages. ; There are now fifty-one central or I national unions in the Federation of | Danish Trades Unions, with 1214 local branches, besides ten local so cieties, the total membership amount | ing to close on 100,000. The Farmers’ Educational and Co ' operative Union, of Tennessee, in an ' nual convention at Jackson, unani i mously passed a resolution instruct ■ ing officers of the State union to use j the union label on all its printed mat ter. The bill prohibiting any one not entitled to do so from wearing a but ton of any labor organization, or from carrying a union card without being an actual member of a union, has been passed by the California Legis lature.
