The output averages sixty ears per day. ; •• The mine iKis fonr fe^ls, which branch off froh^-the inclined shaft, and the men -were at work scattered in. all of theiu. The- fact that there is $,4<X> feet of working .aiid no air sh£f£ accounts for the accnmu- latihg of the gas. and for three hcmrx after the explosion the deadly vapor pour-, ed forth-from the single„eutt'y in such . volume as to indicate that"^he'mine had caught, lire.

Usually 1(50 miners are employed in the Ash shafe but the day being Ash Wed­ nesday there were o 111 y--r-wrty-t\vo men inside at the time of the explosion. Five of these made their yjyly to the outside be­ fore the gas reached them. Some of the bodies taken out were burned almost to a cinder and 'others so badly mangled and burned that recognition lias been ver> difficult. It is thought the explosion was caused by the miners breaking through iijto some old abandoned working, thus liberating the jjas that had accumulated. -The mine was worked through a single in­ cline of .'50 degrees, and seems to have •been defective as respects ventilation.

It Is Almost Indispensable Where •„«ww'v^[acliincry Is Used. Very few people outside the regular trade know what enormous quantities of asbestos are.utilized where machin­ ery is used. Asbestos in its original State is a tibrous mineral indigenous to Canada, and other places, andy.is sent over here in luniks like pieces of raw slate on the top and bottom, while the sides are covered with a fluffy Sub­ stance--the liber, when it is pulled from the bulk. You can pick each lump to pieces with your nails, although to look at it .one would think thjit nothing less than a heavy hammer would rnaktvjany iiypressiou on it. v When it y^aehes the factory it is put. into crushers. These are like the ordi­ nary mortar mixers that you see whore building operations are going on, and the resulting 'gritty, fluffy mass is thrown into what, fs termed a "devil." The devil tears it up with sharp prdhgs and then sifts the grit from the fluff. The former is used for mixing with the asbestos in other processes, while the latter is shot into a receptacle that re­ duces it to .a consistency almost as fine as cotton wool. As it falls from this machine it looks for all the world like snow. • In other departments the raw asbes­ tos is crushed and then mixed with cer­ tain earths'to be used for covering the outer surfaces of steam t)oilers"," asbes­ tos being a non-conductor of heat. Then again, large quantities of mill-board are made for packing between fire­ proof doors and articles of that descrip­ tion. while occasionally it goes to form one of the main constituents in a fire­ proof theater curtain.

'Wilson, of West Vir- ,0 ')0 kis suo- i» the cabinet has (J) been decided upon <5 tor some time.

BJSSKI.I.. • the- confidence and e&teem of all the cabinet. Mis decision to give up the'cares of office was reached some weeks ago, the -chief reason there­ for being Mr, Bissell's unwillingness to sacrifice more ti.me and money for. the honor of holding a seat in the cabinet. He has been influenced to a large extent by the discovery that a considerable share of the.law business of the firm in Buffalo of which he is still a member is drifting into other hands, and .Mr. Bisseli thinks it time for him to return home for-time purpose of looking after his own .inter­ ests. • He is not by any means a wealthy man, and his expenditures in Washing­ ton have amounted to at least three times his salary as a cabinet officer, more than swallowing up his salary and his private income together. Concerning hiss resignation the Presi­ dent said: "It surely is not necessary for me to say that 1 shall release Mr. Bis­ seli with the utmost regret. Air of his associates in the administration will feel that ...they have lost a colleague who, in all respects, was a valuable factor in their executive labors, as Well-as a companion to whom they have become greatly at­ tached. I am not taken by surprise, for I have known for some time'that it was in­ evitable, because Mr. Bissell's reasons for his action were of a personal nature and were inexorable."

Success in treating burns depends .upon-the completeness with which the irritation is arrested and the air ex­ cluded. j. Surface burns arc for the most part- caused by dry heat, from direct con­ tact of the flesh.wit.h the flame, or by moist heat, iai tl^c form qf hot. water or steam. Scalds are more painful, and where the injury is extensive, much more dan­ gerous than wounds caused by dry heat. In burns from dry beat the dam­ age to the tissues is generally com­ plete; while hot water and steam leave the flesh dead, it is true, as far as its usefulness is concerned, but still capa­ ble of undergoing decomposition and putrefaction with all the accompanying dangers. " Whatever their nature, however, all burns are to be treated alike. If caused by heat the part should imme­ diately be wrapped in some substance that will effectually exclude the air, which becomes a source of irritation to the raw flesh. This may be done very simply and easily by cotton wadding soaked in cairon-oil: or, if these articles are not at hand, the burn may be sprin­ kled liberally with baking"soda, starch or even flour, with just enough water added-afterward to, make a thick paste. All blisters should be ^lightly firicked before the part is dressed. After the wound has been smeared with some one of the above prepara­ tions it may be lightly covered with cotton wadding. The dressing should be removed daily, and S.e part careful­ ly washed with, a woiik solution of carbolic acid--say from three to five per cent.--and re-dressed. Burns caused by acids or other irri­ tating substances should be immediate­ ly immersed in running water, that the irritant may be diluted and carried off!^ y Brings comfort and improvement and tends to personal enjoyment when ^rightly usea.
