BLAST KILLS MANY MINERS ■ | Explosion In Germany 1 Takes Lives Os 130 Miners; Only 7 Saved BULLETIN < ’ By ffirl D. Groat, (C. P Staff Correspondent i Berlin, Feb. 12--One hundred and 1 thirty-one miners were killed in a mine explosion at Dortmund shortly before midnight, one of the worst disasters in German industrial history. Several rescue workers, cutting their , way into the gaslilled shafts in search of possible survivors, were asphyx,;iated. I Os tiie 138 miners trapped when the blast let go. only seven were brought out alive. ■1 The entire industrial region around Dortmund was plunged into gloom by ,»the. tragedy, and crowds gathered in | an ugly mood al the mine entrance, threatening Io lynch the directors who I were making every effort to keep I news of the disaster from getting out. The German government sent its •■ondolenees to the community. Pitiful scenes were enacted as i scores of wives ind mothers, with little children at their skirts, clamored to lie allowed to cuter the pit mouth and help the hundreds of vol- . unteers who were risk'ng their lives . in the shafts. Rescue workers with torches and . oxygen tanks had to cut their way through rocks to the rear of the death chamber where the explosion buried most of the victims.

On Account of the, Children By JANE OSBORN (Cupyrlght ) «TT'S really very amusing," said T Aunt Georgie, looking up from the iiital table where abe wan playing solitaire. Constance hud just let herself into the large living room from the veruYlda, where she hud bidden adieu to Tom Lester, with whom she hud been driving. "You don’t look very much aimmed, Aunt Georgle," Constance dared to say. "You really look terribly annoyed. You don't like It tiecause 1 went out with Tom. Please be honest and tell me." "I didn’t say 1 didn’t like it,” said Aunt Georgle. "Please don’t misquote me. But It is really funny—” "You mean because of the feud between our families?" "How you follow me up," complained Georgie. "And how absurd to speak of a ’feud.’ lam sure I bear the Lesters no animosity. We’ve lived across the road from them for years—" "But, Aunt Georgie," persisted Constance, “you never exchange calls." Aunt Georgie smiled loftily. She went on playing solitaire. But Constance was In a singularly trying mood. "And 1 didn’t ask Tom Lester to come In Just now because 1 know you wouldn’t like It." “Don’t say I wouldn't like It,” said Aunt Georgie aggrievedly. “Mr. Lester probably wouldn't come in if you asked him. I dare say he's a perfectly proper sort of young man—only you must admit It's amusing." "You mean my going out with Tom?" flared Constance. “Personally I don't see where the jol c comes in, I know what you mean. Aunt Georgie. You mean that the neighbors who see Tom and me together will have something to smile about. It’s a tradition In this community that you and Mrs. Lester only bow to each other. It's understood at luncheons that you and she should be seated as fur apart as possible. No one ever asks you to come for a cup of tea together. Somehow 1 think. Aunt Georgie. that you’ve rather enjoyed it —not being fond of the Lesters. Most people break their necks to l> friends with the Lesters, and you barely nod to them. That makes you appear terribly superior —” “Constance Manning!" gaspel Georgie. “How you talk!" "Tom said Ids mother said that when we first came here she aid mother usd to see s lot of each other Ha said that his mother said that toil anil she used to pal around quite a bit—" "Mr. Thomas Lester must have a great deal to talk about if he tin<i< time to gossip about his mother and your aunt." "It’s quite important to us." <’»nI stance explained. "We’re good friends ■ —Tom anil I. Gur families are not , But so far as we can see we ought <" i be very neighborly and congenial with ; lots of tastes in common. So To. ; asked his mother why his family and ' ours were on the outs and she thought and thought for a long time, and finally she said, ‘blessed if 1 know.'" Georgie gave a momentary start. Then she recovered her superior smile snd laid the cards out for solitaire v it bout seeing them. "We won’t talk any more about It, < 'onstance," she sold. Constance had no intention of letting the matter drop. Perhaps there was some deep reason for the feeling between the families. Perhaps - Constance was musing thus .is she tried to get to sleep in her little room that night. It was not her fault that she hoard her aunt creep softly to her motlier's room. It. was not her fault If she heard two women as they talked “Alice. I want to ask you something,” GeorgieJiegan. “How did it ail begin with the Lesters?" Apparently Alice thought for some lime. Then she recalled. “There may have been other things, but it all began over Tom and Constance. Yes • It "ns llie winter that Tom was two mid Constance a year and a half just beginning to walk. And we took Constance over there and Tom knocked her down. He just wouldn't lot her stay on her feet. And every time that Constance saw him‘after that she used to scream. And when they'd meet on the street lie'd run for her and pul! Iter hair- -and -and —" “That's so,” said Georgie with a smile. “And you probably said something around about what a naughty boy Tom "as and they said what a spoiled baby Constance was and so it went.” • Constance jumped out of her narrow lied and with a few bounds was in her mother's room. There she faced the two older women with wide wistful eyes. i "I've heard everything you have been saying. 1 couldn't help it." she an nounced. "And I'm sorry for the way I talked to Aunt Georgie this afternoon- " "We will forget that," said \unt Georgia w "But what 1 came to say was that since our little tiff with the Lesters all began on account of Tom and tne T think «e have a right to patch things up again. You see, Tom and l have been getting better acquainted. And now we’re engaged—" "Engaged 1" gasped both women. Then they exchanged glances. “Tom’s a perfectly proper young roan." remarked Georgle. “And has excellent family connections.” added Constance’s mother. And so it all ended ns it nari bogun. on Account of Tom and Ccn stance.
What My Neighbor Says la of Intereat to Decatur Folks When one has had the misfortune to suffer from backache, headaches, d zzinoss, urinary disorders and other I kidney ills—and has found relief from all this sickness and suffering, that person’s advice Is of untold value to friends and neighbors. The following case is only one of many thousands, but It la that of a Decatur resident. Who could ask for a better example? Mrs. Ernst Schlickman, 311 North Ist st., says; “I had right much trouble with my kidneys. Mornings I was tired and had no energy to start the day's work. My back was weak and lame and often ached. Also my kidneys acted irregularly. Doan's Pills from Smith Yager tt Falk's Drug Store relieved me of the trouble.” (Statement g.ven October 23, 1920.) On June 8, 1924 Mrs. Schlickman said: "Doan's Pills have never failed to rid me of kidney trouble.” 60c. at all dealers. Foster-Milburn Co.. Mfrs., Buffalo. N.
