As things go now, the town has all its bustle and ousiness in the month of July, August and September, and for the rest of the year it is as “dead as adoor-nail.” The sot stand empty, the store-keepers reduce their help and other expenses, the street-cars run empty and the town falls asleep to be awakened in che sweet bye and bye.

Flame and smoke were discovered issuing from athe 800 level at 4 o'clock this morning. ‘The different shifts escaped, but six miners ‘were cut off and had to make their way out by the new shaft in the south end. It is supposed that the fire was caused by spontaneous combustion from lard oil and kerosene. It is impossible to estimate the probable loss, but it will probably amount to several hundred thousand dollars, and the fected, as there are 1000 men employed in the Utica group of mines, ; Efforts are being made to quench the fire by bulkheading the shafts, in which work several men were overcome from suffocation. The mine is also being flooded with 3000 inches of water, an eight-inch hose running into the Stickle shaft, where the first started. It will require four days to flood the mine and two months to pamp it out again. The last big fire at the Utica was on July 21, 1895, dut it is believed this will be more disastrous. At that time it required seven weeks to pump out the mine. Secured No Plunder, Topeka, Kansas, August 17—B. J.

He obeyed and at the crossing four or five more men appeared and began firing to intimidate the passengers. The robbers went to the express car and ordered the messenger to open the safe, but this he could not do, as it was a through safe from Kansas City to Galveston. They tried to blow it open with dynamite, but failed, and soon afterwards ordered the engineer to go ahead. The passengers were. not molested, and the train was delayed about 80 minutes.

In my judgment the visitor who finds it dull work putting in a week or a month at ‘people are in the habit of coming here for. from what I can see and hear, this is. even. more desirable as a winter resort thanus a sammer resort, although so far about all the’ people have been . docking here in sammer instead of in, winter. There are several reasons why {think they make a mistake in doing so, the main one being that while the summer months are more or less foggy and there is a pretty stiff wind in exposed points at times, the sun shines from a cloudless'sky most of, the winter and the air is balmy. As things go now, the town has all its bustle and ousiness in the month of July, August and September, and for the rest of the year it is as “dead as adoor-nail.” The sot stand empty, the store-keepers reduce their help and other expenses, the street-cars run empty and the town falls asleep to be awakened in che sweet bye and bye.

Flame and smoke were discovered issuing from athe 800 level at 4 o'clock this morning. ‘The different shifts escaped, but six miners ‘were cut off and had to make their way out by the new shaft in the south end. It is supposed that the fire was caused by spontaneous combustion from lard oil and kerosene. It is impossible to estimate the probable loss, but it will probably amount to several hundred thousand dollars, and the fected, as there are 1000 men employed in the Utica group of mines, ; Efforts are being made to quench the fire by bulkheading the shafts, in which work several men were overcome from suffocation. The mine is also being flooded with 3000 inches of water, an eight-inch hose running into the Stickle shaft, where the first started. It will require four days to flood the mine and two months to pamp it out again. The last big fire at the Utica was on July 21, 1895, dut it is believed this will be more disastrous. At that time it required seven weeks to pump out the mine. Secured No Plunder, Topeka, Kansas, August 17—B. J.
