BURIED ALIVE 10 DAYS B B B BUB B B B Dr. Robertson Continues Tale of Terror
"" If: . 1
In the gloomv cavern of a collapsed mine, three men are huddled together for warmth; water drip, dripping, their tomb echoing with falling rocks. Like the last flicksr of a fluttering candle, Magiil passes. This, the third installment of Dr. Robertson’s own story of the Moose River tragedy, etches the scene with sharp, simple strokes. BY DR. D. E. ROBERTSON TTALIFAX, N. S., May 4. —We lay huddled together, our stone bed becoming increasingly uncomfortable. Water dripped on us incessantly. We thought we were keeping time properiy, identifying each day and night. Alf would make regular trips to the opening of the landing shaft and hur. down a rock, always reporting he could not hear a splash. In this wise J he days passed until Saturday, or what he thought was Saturday. Alf was complaining more and more of numbness in his legs. Both Magiil and Alf complained of pain around their joints and groins and knees. To my surprise I seemed tc be in good physical shape. Neither Alf nor I had a cough Mag'll, however, did not appear to be so rugged. Suddenly in the middle of what I judged was Saturday afternoon, he sat upright and cried to me that he had a dreadful pain in his stomach. Passing my arm around him, I felt his abdomen. It was absolutely rigid. We continued to lie there, the three of us, on our left sides. I had my arm around Magiil, trying to restrain and control him. Rocks continued to fall. B B U By this time it had become apparent to me that Magiil had pneumonia in his left lung. His pulse and his breathing were almost twice as fast as mine. The mine was full of noises, but one noise stood out from the others. It seemed to be a boring souna, a sound as if a rotary instrument was working. Presently a red light burst forth in the shaft just below our level. There was an intense red glow which lighted the whole place. We thought fire had started, perhaps from some dynamite. Alf sprang up and went over to the shaft. We passed him a cup of water, with which he deluged the fire. We discussed the significance of the fire, but could attribute no reasonable explanation. B B WE were in for about six or eight hours of peculiar occurrences. The compressed air was turned on tn one of the pipes and was blown for a long period of time. We thought it was an endeavor of the engineering force to get an air pump working. After the compressed air had been blown for a period, a whistle was blown. Following another discussion of this phenomenon we decided that they were in some fashion trying to signal us. After resuming our beating of the pipes, we presently heard a voice shout, ■•Hello!” We went to the landing stage. Alf got down the ladder and found that the voice was coming from the opening where the fire had made its appearance. Through this opening, which proved to be the diamond drill opening made to penetrate to the space where we lay, we could converse directly with the people above. B B B THROUGH this I was able al- -*- most immediately to speak to my wife. Mrs. Magiil called to her husband, but he was too weak to move from where he lay. We asked for candles and food. A rubber tube was passed down, an ordinary garden hose. This held some candles, some matches wrapped in cellophane, and some small vials containing chocolate. We dragged the hose over to where we lay. We lighted our candles. We tried the soup, which was poured down the hose, but neither Magiil nor I was able to keep it down. Alf, I think, got some benefit from it. Later they lowered us a telephone. During this time Magiil was getting very much worse. He had an extremely high fever, with very labored breathing. Suddenly he sat up, demanding a drink of water. He drank it, fell back and died. He died in the dark. Alf and I lighted our candles. By Herculean efforts we moved his body into the north cut, where we placed it on a board. We then returned to our place of rest. I slept. In tomorrow’s chapter Dr. Robertson's story progresses to the .Uge,” the period wherein

Charles Halleck, Republican incumbent, Second District, alco is unopposed and so is his general election opponent, Hugh A. Barnhart, of Rochester. Closely linked to the interest in these races is the selection of 1831 delegates to the Democratic state convention on June 16 and the 1733 delegates to the Republican convention on June 3. The delegates selected at the polls tomorrow will determine whether E. Kirk McKinney, Lieut. Gov. M. Clifford Townsend, Pleas Greenlee or “a dark horse” will be the Democratic Party’s gubernatorial nominee. Six in G. O. P. List They will determine whether Glenn Hillis, Kokomo; Elza Rogers, Lebanon; Raymond S. Springer, Connersville; George Hill, Michigan City; Mayor Samuel Beecher, Terre Haute; Mayor Clare Bangs, of Huntington, or a “dark horse” will lead the Republicans. The delegates also will name the state ticket for each party. Tomorrow’s election also will determine the parties’ nominees for the 1937 General Assembly. Marion County is to ballot for 12 state Representatives and five Senators. Five Democratic Senators and three state Representatives are seeking renomination. They are: Senators E. Curtis White, Jacob Weiss, E. Leroy Portteus, Leo X. Smith and Harry Hill and Representatives Charles Lutz, Edward P. Barry and Henry J. Richardson Jr. Minor issues seen in the campaign are: Strength of retailers in electing Representatives and State Senators who favor repeal of the gross income tax law; and the strength of the Indiana Anti-Saloon League, which is seeking to name solons favorable to a stricter local option law. Politicians will attempt to read from the vote tomorrow whether the Democratic or Republican Party will be successful in the fall election. They will try to guess whether the State’s electoral vote will be cast for a Republican or Democratic President of the United States. Marion County had 246,204 registered voters in 1934; an estimated 250,000 are eligible to vote tomorrow. 89,229 Voted in 1934 The 1934 county primary vote was 89,229. Election officials believe more than 100,000 voters will go to the polls tomorrow—if it does net rain. All county voting will be by ballot. Machines can not be used in the primary. Because the Australian ballot will be used, election officials estimate that the first election returns will not be received before 8 or 9 p. m. with the majority of returns scheduled to begin after midnight. Democratic and Republican county headquarters will obtain unofficial returns on contested races. County candidates who are unopposed are: Democrat —HerbertM. Spencer, incumbent prosecutor; Harry Hill, Edinburg, incumbent joint state Senator, Marion and Johnson Counties. Republican—Hazaei Oris Blackwell, joint state Representative, Marion and Johnson Counties.

ical Socialists. These parties, combined as the popular front, will dictate an all-left government which probably will take power as soon as parliament is convened June l s if not sooner. Anew triumvirate of power has been set up as a result of Sunday’s balloting. The three men who will dictate French policies for the next three years will be the Communst Maurice Thorez, the Socialist Leon Blum and the Radical Socialist Edouard Daladier. Leaders of the popular front said they would work for a program involving the reform of the Bank of France, the nationalization of the munitions industry to take the profits out of war, and government ownership and operation of insurance companies, railroads, power companies and public utilities.

ITALIAN TROOPS GAMP AT GATE OF ADDISABADA Awaiting Arrival- of Main Force; Capital Is in Ruins. (Continued From Page One) tions. the once prosperous foreigner* look through rifle slits In barricaded windows at the smouldering ruins of their businesses. They are impoverished men. The postoffice, the entire retail business section, the tobacco monopoly headquarters, the customs house, the triumphal arches of the city are in ashes. Remains of mu* nitions stores have been exploded. From the British legation on the eastern side of the city, a thick dust cloud was seen 30 miles to the north —the Italian vanguard. The legation, to which American women and children, and a few men, have been taken, is expected to see first the Italian entry to the city. The compound is on the imperial highway to Dessye, at the extreme eastern edge of the city. Americans Four Miles Away Inside the iron legation gates, the compound slopes steeply upward through a eucalyptus grove to the legation building proper, a quarter of a mile away. Trenches have been dug around the building and barbed wire has been placed as a further safeguard, in the thick shrubbery just below the building. Fire from the five machine guns, and the rifles of the 250 bearded Sikh troops from India can sweep all approaches, and a searchlight on top of the building prevents a surprise attack at night. The position of the American legation is not good. It is on th* edge of the Arab quarters, surrounded by native huts. A few rifle slits have been made in the basement. It is four miles from the British legation. The defenders have a few Springfield service rifles and a few .45 calibre service pistols.
