See how they go: GIBSON As the figure appeared the cheer broke out again; but it ceased abruptly with a moment's breathless pause, as the men nearest the shaft-head threw up their arms in unrestrained manifestation of astonishment and delight. "Denvers!" they shouted, in broken Chorus; and "Denvers!" was repeated over the field, the name bouncing from Hp to lip, caught up eagerly by the surging mass. Then a wild cheer broke on the air, spreading to the fringe of the excited crowd. It rose again and again, waking the echoes of the hills, and rolling, like the roar of waters, over the plains beyond. Denvers it was, come back from a grave deeper than ever dug for mortal man.

Denvers restored, conscious and scarcely bruised, to his ds-lighted mates! The throng pressed forward, eager for a. look of recognition and a grip of the hand. Denvers had been popular among his acquaintances all his life. But he had never experienced the true meaning of popularity till he found himself suddenly the hero and idol of this mixed crowd4-a community made up of all sorts and conditions of men. A glance at th ruin at his feet sufficed to acquaint him with the fate of his fellow-workeffs at the time of the catastrophe, and to fill him with wonder and gratitude at i his own marvelous escape.

The explanation, given hurriedly to the clamorous bystanders, made them turn to, each other with exclamations of indignation and astonishment. "This is a bit of fiendish treachery!" he said, turning to Challoner. "We were right in our suspicions of our neighbors" honesty. I was at work In the south drive, when I heard men's voices. They sounded so unaccountably near to rne that I stopped to listen.

I had forgot ten our suspicions, but they came suddenly back to me. I went to the end wall and tested it with my pick. I had raked it down, a faked-up partition hiding a tunnel between our claim and Sinclair's. I crawled through the opening, meaning to have an explanation from them, but, rememoering scoundrels they are, I thought it best to call Wilson and Strang as witnesses. At that moment, before I could turn back, I felt the first shock of the collapse.

I seemed to kound forward as it shot, further into the tunnel. A fearful roar and a shower of loose stones stunned me, I suppose. I remember no more until I heard the voices of the rescue men, They found me half buried in the tunnel between the two claims." "Tunnelling!" "Foul play" "Thieves!" and a chorus of like exclamations burst from the lips of the Indignant crowd. "Yes, foul play!" repeated Frank. "1 believe the object was something more than robbery.

I heard enough to convince me of it. But the scoundrels have been caught in their own trap, it seems," ne went on, glancing at the prostrate figure of Ned Palmer. "Where is the fellow Sinclair?" No one knew. Some believed he was still down the half-ruined mine, others declared that he was above ground, his shift and Ned Palmer not being taken on together. "He's either down there or he's had the good sense to make himself scarce while he had the chance," remarked one of the crowd.

Meanwhile the rescuers had been drawn up. "If there are any more men down," they declared, "It is impossible to get at them. We dare not give another stroke of the pick." At that moment a sudden trembling was felt under their feet. The men at the shaft's brink turned startled looks at each other ere they sped, like hunted hares, over the ground, already reverberating with the explosion of the exuded air. The claim had fallen in, making one with the sunken hollow of the neighboring ruin.

The mine which had given up one man from the dead, had claimed at least one other as hostage, after the mysterious workings of fate, consistent only in its eternal caprlclous-ness. Meanwhile the missing man, Sinclair, had not, as some believed, ended his career in the fallen mine. When the first news of the catastrophe, shouted by the excited miners, had reached his ears, he had been lying in the tent after exchanging shifts with Ned Palmer. He sprang from his (bed and peered furtively from the tent, watching the stream of miners hurrying past in the direction of the ruined claim, keeping himself well out qf sight. He was not at all sure that it was safe for him to remain another minute on the field; but prudence suggested that it were better that he should not be seen hurrying in the opposite direction from that taken by the excited crowd.

And again, it might not be necessary to leave the place; it depended upon whether suspicion had fallen upon his party as being the cause of the catastrophe. Yesterday they had fancied they caught looks of mistrust directed at them, but they might have been misled by the uneasy stirring of their guilty consciences. He wondered whether Ned Palmer and the others would stay and take the risks. TO BE CONTINUED TO-MORROW. ANTHRACITE MANDATE WILL SOON BE ISSUED.

Course to Be Pursued in Coal Carrying Cases Considered by Attorney General, BY ASSOCIATED PRESS. WASHINGTON, June 21. The mandate of the supreme court of the United States in the Anthracite coal region cases. Involving the validity of the commodities clause of the railroad rate law, which was issued last week, is in the hands of the attorney general. The mandate was prepared and issued at the attorney general's request, who is considering the course to be pursued in the United States circuit court for the eastern district of Pennsylvania, where the case originated, as that court was reversed.

In support of the constitutionality of the law it will be necessary for the lower court to take the matter up now and record a verdict in accordance with the direction of the supreme court, and presumably this will be done under the guidance of the attorney general. The statement was made at the department of justice to-day that there was no special reasons for hurrying the matter, as the railroads were understood to be complying in good faith with the terms of the supreme court's mandate.

F. L. Smith Co Appeal Head of Mint to Resign. OAKLAND, June 21. Frank A.

Leach, director of the United States mint, with headquarters at Washington, has decided to accept the presidency of the Peoples' Water Company, of Oakland, according to announcement made to-day. The tender was made last Thursday. The exceptional Kqtiipment of the California Fig Syrup Co. and the icientific attainments of its chemists have rendered possible the production of Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna, in all of its excellence, by obtaining the pure medicinal principleaof plants known to apt most txeficially and combining them most skillfully, in the right proportions, with its wholesome and refreshing Syrup of California Figs. As there is only one genuine Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna and as the genuine is manufactured by an original method known to the California Fig Syrup Co.

only, it is always necessary to buy the genuine to get its benefip ial effects. A knowledge of the above facts enables one to decline imitations.or to return them if, upon viewing the package, the full name of the California Fig Syrup Co. is not found printed on the front thereof. $150 $100 50 Dresses Dresses Dresses, 50.00 $37.50 $25.00 $18.00 25.00 Dresses 18.75 Dresses ...15.00 Dresses CONTINUED FROM YESTERDAY. CHAPTER XXI.

Continued. This epistle was dated from Ballarat, and appended was the name of Ewan Sinclair, Charles Scott's old acquaintance of the billiard room. Maimie looked up from the letter to the face of the trembling girl upon the bed. Who- was Frank Denvers, she wondered, that the news of his death should come with such crushing power to her? And why had Charles Scott taken the trouble to spring the tidings so rudely upon her? Malmie's supposition that an engagement existed between Phyllis and Charles Scott had been strengthened by a meeting between the two which she had witnessed one day as she approached them unperceived in the street. Scott had manifested all the confidential attitude of the accepted lover.

The conviction flashed upon her now that the dead man must have been a rival of Charles Scott, who was none too loth to pass on the news of his death to Fhvllis. Did Phyllis really care for Scott, or had her heart been given to the dead man? Far better the latter, she thought, to have loved a good man and lost him by the ruthless decree of fate than to be chained by the affections of a man like Scott. She turned silently to the stricken girl, laying her back among the pillows and smoothing away the heavy waves of hair from her ralid brow. What Is there to be said when death stern flat descends upon the wavering possibilities of the riddle of life? CHAPTER XXII. startled bv the explosive roar, caused by the sudden expulsion of air from the mine as it collapsed, the whole field stopped work and crowded to the scene of the disaster.

Challoner, who had reeled away, sick and giddy, from the ruin, found himself in the midst of an onsweeping crowd, who turned looks of horror and sympathy upon him as the news of the catastrophe spread among them. Unable to extricate himself from the pressing throng, he let himself be swept back to the ruined claim, recovering his self-possession with an effort after the first terrible shock. Upon the brink of the sunken ground he found 'Jim Pendle and the Captain. The latter was hastily directing a party of volunteers for rescue work. He met Challoner's glance of startled inquiry by an ominous shake of his head, however.

"Not for our friends," he said, "not a spark of hope. But they say there ts something wrong in the next claim, a partial collapse. Ned Palmer and one or two others are down there, but we can get no response from them. The shaft is all right, so far as we can see, and the fall below may be a slight one." As the heads of the volunteers disappeared from sight, a cheer broke from the onlookers. They went down well aware that their lives hung upon a thread.

Even should the descent be made without mishap, none could say whit might be the result of the first stroke of pick or spade upon the shaken foundations of the mine. In the thrilling excitement of the moment, when human lives trembled in a balance so fine, the unhappy fate of Challoner's friends was almost forgotten by all but their own party. Challoner, though he lent his energies to the work, was still half-stunned by the amazing blow. The two men already lowered had been instructed to signal for further help according as they found It necessary, and sufficiently safe to warrant further risk of life. The signal for aid was given speedily, and Challoner stepped forward to the stage.

A dozen hands held him back with exclamations of dissent. "No, no. Challoner!" they cried. "Not you! You've had enough for one day. You're not fit." Challoner yielded with a shrug.

He had offered himself instinctively; but he had no energy to combat the general opinion, and another man stepped into his place. The Imprisoned men were held in no great esteem by the community, and their loss would have been deplored by few; but in the hour of danger differences and disrespect were forgotten, and there was no lack of volunteers for the hazardous work of rescue. After half an hour's anxious wait, the signal to draw up was given from below. This was responded to in breathless silence, broken by a tremendous burst of cheering as a limp, unconscious form ap peared above the stage. "Ned Palmer!" the cry went round, and a whiter-faced girl rushed to the side of the prostrate man, her passion of mingled grief and joy making the miners look into each other's eyes with half-shamed wonder.

Ned Palmer, the notorious drunkard and wife-beater! He lived to bring many another shower of tears to the eyes of the girl now sobbing her heart out over his bruised limbs. The next wait was a shorter one. The signal given, all eyes were strained for the appearance of the man alive or dead, according to the plan of his destiny. thorized by the courts some months ago. More than 75 bridges and trestles have been repainted and a number of the wooden bridges have been replaced with heavy steel structures.

Representatives of the Wabash and the Pennsylvania railroads have been in Ell-wood City. within the last three weeks, gathering information relative to securing rights of way for the building of two new railroads into that city. It has been known for some time that the Wabash has been seeking an entrance to Ellwood City. The company owns the Pittsburgh. Lisbon Western, a email line extending between New Galilee and Lisbon, about 20 miles in length.

It is understood that the Gould officials intend to extend this road from the main line a New Galilee to Ellwood. and from Lisbon to either Valley Junction or Massillon, O. The Pennsylvania originally operated the branch line owned bv the Pittsburgh Lake Erie between Ellwood Junction and Ellwood. Some time ago this agreement was canceled and the Pennsylvania ts now shut out of Ellwood City. Car Shortage Is Predicted.

That the railroads in the Pittsburgh district, as well as in other parts of the country are expecting a car shortage this fall is admitted. Some of the roads claim that with the new equipment ordered recently they will have ample rolling stock to handle all business that may be offered while high officials of other lines have admitted to big shoppers along their lines that they expect a car shortage this fall. On account of the threatened shortage large shippers have been requested to place orders for new equipment. Some of the larger shippers owning private cars have already invited bids for new roll'ng stock and some of these orders will be placed within the next three weeks. Two of the railroads in Pittsburgh to-day are using every available freight car, and one of these lines is negotiating with the Pennsylvania for the use of some of its cars for the next four months.

Ticket Contractors to Go. A long established custom will be broken this week by the New York Central when the tickets for points in and about Niagara Falls will be posed of by employes of the New York Central. For at least 15 years it has been the custom to lease the privilege. The Niagara Transfer Company now has it. This contract, however, expires to-morrow and, beginning Thursdav morning, ths New York Central will have ticket sellers to solicit for side trips at the Falls.

The Central -will dispose of tickets for the carriage lines, the International Railway Belt line and for the Gorge railroad trip. The Central is taking the responsibilty for the benefit of the tourists to insure them in getting the side trips that they purchased. May Cut Cleveland Run. Pennsylvania railroad officials are expected to make some announcement this week regarding further changes in the running time of a number of Its through trains on the lines west of Pittsburgh. That the running time will be cut is generally believed on account of the action of the Pittsburgh Lake Eric in establishing a new fast scheduled from Pittsburgh to Youngstown, Ashtabula, Erie and Buffalo.

It is admitted that the Pennsylvania cannot meet the new schedule of the New York Central system between Pittsburgh and Buffalo, but several test runs have been made recently between Pittsburgh and Cleveland and between Pittsburgh and Chicago. As a result of these tests the officials claim that they can reduce the Cleveland schedule half an hour and ut the running time of certain trains to Chicago more than an hour. Railway Fuel Agents Meet. Representatives of all the local railroads left yesterday morning for Chicago to attend the first annual convention of the International Railway Fuel Agents association, which will be held in that city this week.

Of these causes faulty nutrition is tna more common.

This ifl the case especially with many women and children. Unless certain parts of the food are thoroughly digested and prepared for assimilation by the secondary proceeses occurring In tha bowels, slow starvation of the nerves and brain is certain to follow. When tha nerve energy of the body becomes impaired important organs soon become disturbed, giving rise to numerous complications. Of these the circulation of the blood is often the first to suffer. The heart's action becomes weakened and irregular.

Important organs ar deprived of their normal blood supply and soon become -weak and fail to perform their functions. The sluggish circulation leads to turgescence of important organs, which soon become congested. This form -of congestion usually leads to chronic Inflammations, which mav persist for year in spite of treatment. The most common forms of nervousness seldom prodtic symptoms of an external nature. Often there are no well-denned symptoms present to guide the physician in making a correct diagnosis.

It is in these cases that a chemical and microscopical examination of the urine is of Inestlmabls value to the specialist. If he understands his business an analysis of the urine will show him at once the real cause of all the trouble. No matter what the symptoms may be, it is the cause ot the nervousness or nervous debility that must be found out if the patient is to cured. For twenty years Dr. Shafer has made a special study of the causes nervous diseases, and has records at his office of over twenty thousand cases examined and treated.

The skill and knowledge obtained from this extensive experience is offered free to all who wish to learn the nature and cause of their debilitated, nervous systems. If your nervous breakdown is due to other causes, excesses, unnatural drains or overtaxation an examination of the urine, is the first step in locating the direct From simple nervousness to softening of the brain is a long road, which, no one needs to travel if proper treatment is secured in time to prevent incurable organic complications.
