Four additional bodies were
brought to the surface of the Ca
rolina Coal Company's mine, this
bringing the total number of bo
dies recorded to 12. Mine offi
cials Indicated that a further
check of their records shows that
fifty-lwo men had been entombed.

With eight bodies recovered from
the wrecked Carolina Coal company
mine at noon today, approximately
three-score miners were unaccount
ed for.
The rescue work today was stim
ulated by federal aid and the work
era cleared the main shaft of the
mine nearly two thousand feet
down. It was found, however, that
an almost solid wall of slale had
closed the shaft, perhaps cutting
the men behind It off from the
foul air caused by the three ex
plosions nearer the BUrface, but
at fhe same time closing their only
avenue' of fresn "n!r." ' " "
Experienced miners were of the
opinion that the men could not be
extricated before tomorrow. They
held no hope that any would be
found alive.

hearts of rescue workers who
through the nlqht had labored in
the recesses of the mine.
After-damp, dread enemy of the
miners, rlnlmed their lives, if they
survived thw series of explosions
which closed their escape to the
surrace, rescue workers declared.
Hut despite this belief, which
rained headway through the
night, they labored no less faith

Imprisoned comrades of yester
day. Throughout the night, hundreds
of men, women and children, re
latives of the entombed men,
strained against the barrier ropes
surrounding the dusky entrance
to the mine.
Foe hours after the disaster,
hope was entertained that the im
prisoned men might still lire. This
hope was nurtured by the report
that fre.-h air had been encount
, ered by workers as they toiled
downward seeking the entombed
men. As the cable drew its creak
ing burden into the outer dark

CHICAGO. May 28. Principals
in the widely advertised Tennessee
evolution case, set for trial July
10, have given an additional fillip
of Interest to the coming scientif
ic struggle by outlining their views
on evolution and the questions at
stake in the litigation.
In addition a new voice was
heard when Wilbur Glenn Vollva,
joverseer of Zion City and a cham
ipion of the theory that the world
is flat, came forward with a state
ment that "evolution la one of the
most dangerous theories ever propounded."
I As preparations went forward
ifor the trial, with both sides lin
ing up their forces, word came

board of education of Caroll coun
ty had announced its purpose to
employ no teachers who believe
in evolution. The board also con
demned Henrik Van Loon's "His
tory of Mankind" sent to the
schools by the circulating depart
ment of the state library. John T.
Scopes, who as defendant sprang
Into wide notice in his first year
as a -achool science Instructor, ex
plained his views in a statement
at Lexington, Ky., during a visit
to the University of Kentucky, his
alma mater.
"I believe that man and all ani
mals ascended from the lower
orders, but I have never seen or
read any scientific statement that
man descended from a monkey
I and I do not believe that," he said.
I "No person could teach even the
' most elementary courses In bio
ilogy without recognition of the
evidences of man s evolution.
William Jennings Bryan, who
will appear on the side of the
prosecution had this to say:
"1 would suggest that the real

teaching of evolution, but who

Douglas county's prune crop for
the coming harvest season will
amount to about nine million
pounds, it is estimated. The nor
mal crop for the county Is between
12 and 15 million pounds, based
on yields for the past four or five
years. Petites are fully as heavy
as usual, and will form about three
million pounds of the nine, while
the Italians will amount to about
six million pounds. These figures
are believed to be a conservative
estimate, based upou an extensive
survey of the situation made by
V. T. Jackson, local manager tor
the Draner company.
Mr. Jackson states that he has
thoroughly covered every part of

here does not aflpear to be as ser
