The covering to the pool consisted oi a thickness of boards, with a few inches of toll on top of this. The pool Is 14 feet deep and nlmost full of water and mud. The boards were decayed and 'ti Ftantly gr.ve way, precipitating her suddenly Into this awful paol With wonderful presence of mind she grasped the sides and by bracing her body against the walls succeeded In keeping her head above water until help came in response to her screams. Although not seriously injured, she suffered a severe shock from the frightful position she occupied for the few moments she clung by superhu man efforts, between life and death. Fortunately, neighbors near by heard her first cries and hurried to her assistance.

In making his announcement of the committee, Mr. Cohen said: "I have had the interest of the proposition so much at heart that I have refrain ed from appointing this committee until now for the reason that I felt the success or failure of the home depends entirely, or almost, upon the committee that does the soliciting.

INDEPENDENT OPERATORS AFRAID TO DISCLOSE PROFITS President Mitchell and an Old Miner on the Stanti Man Lost $350. by Docking Last Year. I Scranton, Pa., Dec. 3. The inde pendent operators this morning would not submit accounts to show their 'profit and loss. Darrow replied that I If they were willing to admit that the miners were entitled to fair wages whether the company was making money or not, he would agree that it was useless to have the accounts sub mitted, otherwise if they contend that they are unable to pay fair wages, submission of the accounts would be necessary. President John Mitchell was the first witness. He said a 20 per cent increase of wages meant only 17 cents a ton added to the cost of mining coal. Mac Veagh's questions were entire ly relative to wages. After Mitchell was excused, photographic exhibits of the miners' homes were offered. Darrow then put the coal miner, Dettrey on the stand, who told of the system of docking and said that on some occasions -10 per cent of the weight was deducted. He said he had lost $350 that way last year. His in come was $300, but for several years past he had only received $200. He bad been blacklisted once because he would not dlBown the union and once before because he refused to work on a break where ho could only make $3 a week. jam n n u mm Chrome Kid Lined t Shoes for Ladies t Ladies Felt Lined Fine Kid Shoes j Comfortable Dressy Warm Slippers i PEOFEES WAREHOUSE OLD SANTA II 7iL ay.: Free Dolls On Saturday, December 13, commencing at 9 o'clock, we will give a handsome 16-inch doll with a 50c purchase of crockery or glass ware.
