Victoria, B. C., Oct. 1.—Seventeen
men are dead as a result of fire and ex
plosion in an extension mine, No. 2, be
longing to the Wellington Colliery com
pany. The flames started from a cur
tain, which caught fire from a miner’s
lamp.
The dead:
George Southcomb, timberman, mar

a native of Australia.
Eugene Griffin, timberman, married.

The fire broke out at the bottom of
level No. 3 and was communicated
across the slope by one of the curtains.
Iu half an hour the whole slope was on
fire. Rescuers hurried to the mines,
bat the men Had gone, attempting to
get out by the accustomed, route, thus
meeting death half way.
While the rescuers were at work sev
eral explosions occurred. When it was
realized chat the men could not be
saved, a strong force started to choke
the mine, but their work was undone
by a terrific explosion, which biew down
the barricade. A little later the fan
house burned.
James Thomas, a rope rider, had a
thrilling escape. He was riding down
the slope and seeing the fire coming,
jumped oil the car and ran. George B.
Somhcomb and Eugene Griffith, tim-
bermen, called to him to follow them,
but he ran on up tne slope for 1.000 feet
to its mouth and barely escaped with
his iife. The other men were overtaken
by the flames and perished.
The fire is still raging, but it is
thought it can be extinguished without
flooding the mine.

Increase of 3Iore Than $125,000 Over
Last Year.
Atlanta, Oct. I.—Commis&ioner of
Pensions J. W. Lindsey has completed
his work of Dassing upon new applica
tions for pensions for the coming year.
He will continue to receive applications
and put them on file, but he will not act
upon any more to be paid next year.
As a resuit of Commissioner Lindsey’s
investigations he estimates an appro
priation of $825,000 will be necessary to
pay all the pensions next year. This is
an increase of more than 125,000 over
last year, but it takes iu the new class
of widows provided for at the iast ses
sion of the legislature, but who were
not paid. This new class of pensioners
will account for about $89,000 of the in
crease.
The following amounts will be re
quired to pay the different classes of
pensioners: Indigent soldiers, $362,000;
indigent widows, $78,000; disabled sol
diers, $190,000, and old class of widows,
f190,000. This makes a total of $825,000.
Drowued in Ogeeciice Canal.
Savannah, Sept-. 30.—Sam Deitch, a
12-year-old boy, was drowned in the
Ogeechee canal. Deitch and several
young companions were playing on a
raft made of old logs at the foot of Mar
garet street, when the raft gave way
and precipitated the whole crowd into
the water. The screams of the boys
brought assistance in short order and
all were fished out in time except Deitch,
whose body had sunk to the bottom.
Some little time elapsed before the body
was recovered and life was extinct.
No lives were lost in the conflagra
tion, but the inmates lost nearly all
their personal effects.
Fire was discovered in the upper part
of the building at 8:15 o’clock. It started
in the garbage plant.
Immediately this discovery was made,
an alarm was given and a hose line at
tached to the tank in the rear of the
building, and the inmates hurrisd from
their rooms.
An appeal for aid was sent to the fire
department in town, and a fire track
was sent in response thereto.
The water in the tank proved entirely
insufficient to stay the blaze aud the
structure burnt like tinder. In 30 min
utes after it caught it was a rnin. Save
for the water iu the tank the building
had no protection.
There were 75 inmates in the home.
The building was insured for $10,000. It
cost about $10/)00.
All the inmares of the home have not
yet been accounted for, but it is believed
at this hour that no lives are lost.
Scarcely anything has been saved.
A movement will be started to rebuild
the home by popular subscription.

Georgia Will Provide the Old Soldiers
With Another Structure.
Atlanta, Oct. 1.—The news of the
destruction by fire of the Georgia Sol
diers’ Home was received throughout
the state with evidences of the greatest
sorrow.
Sentiment generally is in favor of re
building the home at once. Already
Atlanta, Savannah, Macon, Augusta,
Albany, Columbus and many other cit
ies and towns of the state have started
subscription lists and, with, the insur
ance money of $10,000 as a nucleus, it is
only a question of time when a sufficient
sum wiil have been raised for the pur
pose.
The Soldiers’ Home, with the addi
tions and improvements that had been
made thereon, represented a cost of
$30,000. Inside the building were fur
nishings to the amount of $3,500. The
building was insured for $10,009 and the
furniture for $2,000. The actual loss,
therefore, is something more than $20,-
000. Of the $J 0,000 insurance, $5,000 is
with the Scottish Union National In
surance company and $5,000 with the
Hamburg-Bremen Fire Insurance com
pany. The building was a three story
structure. It contained 75 rooms, of
which 60 were sleeping apartments.
