BRYCEVILLE, Tenn., Dec. IS. Somewhere In the depths of the wrecked Cross Mountain coal mine, three miles beneath the surface, Sam Miller, the oldest miner employed by the company, and a crowd of hulpera are playing hide and seek with death, while a rescue party Is hazarding the lives of Its members to save him. Smoldering fire has added to the danger of the entombed miners and is making more difficult the work cf rescue. Many galleries are aflame and smoke compels the rescuers to work in Bhort shifts. Chalk marks on the walls are the trail by w filch the rescuers are following Miller and his companions. "Going to No. 36," reads the hut message on the wall. Twenty-five members of the gov ernment life saving party, equipped with safety helmets, have started for gallery 36. To get there they will not only have to chop their way through wreckage, but they must fight through a wall of fire, the ex tent of which Is problematical. They fear the fire may be eating Its way toward the imprisoned min ers, but they rely on Miller's knowl edge of the mine to stave off death until Bafoty reaches them. Miller knows every entry way and room in the mine and this knowledge Is the one thing that has saved him and his followers up to now. At least a Cozen men arc thought to be with him. While the government party Is fighting its way through fire and wreckage to get to number 36 gal lery, anothor party of reBcuera Is digging toward the Bame gallery through the Thistle mine, which ad joins the wrecked shafts. They are 30 foot from the CroBs Mountain mlQft and declare they beard rap plngs. The total number of dead recover ed up to today s 41. TWELVE-YEAR-OLD LAD SOMEWHAT OF A RERO. PORTLAND, Dec. 13.
