d'vlsion of sentiment that is almost
without precedent Is admitted to exist

representatives from tlio state are
placed among the Taft supporters but
tho president Is being fought by Gov

they do not fear tho results and that

dition of the geese whose cackling saved Rome must now be added
the modern story of the canaries that saved the lives of tbo BrJteville
(Tenn.i miners. The bureau of mines has for some time been experi
menting with devices for rescuing miners .entombed In workings filled with
poisonous gases and has recommended a helmet iittcd with a supply of oxygen
which enables the weaver to breathe In an utmosphere in which he would
otherwise suffocate. ' When elghty-nlnp miners were imprisoned in Hie" Brice
vllle mine the volunteer rescuers (who saved Dve of the prisoners) used the
oxygen apparatus, but they also carried with them caged canaries In order to
test the air as they advanced.' The birds are much more sensitive to gas than
men and show signs of distress before the amount of gas in the atmosphere
is large enough to endanger human life'and so give the men a chance to re
treat ti time. The upper of the two pictures shows two of the Brlceville res
cuers wearing the oxygen apparatus; the lower the huge tube which the bureau
used as a laboratory substitute for a mine, with the experimenters entering It
with the canary with which they are a bout to test the air.
