C,, Feb, 17.-~Additional datalls contlnue to come from the Union mines on Vancouver island where the hor- rible fatality ocourred I'riday forenoon. The thrown the towns of Cumber- nalmo into a state of gloom. The Canadian Pacific Rallway company's steamer Tartar arrived at Vancouver this #fternoon from the coaling station at Unlon, twelve miles from Cumberland. She brought two parsengers, 11, R. Raymond and George Bennett, both coal miners. Neither had any theory as to the cause of the explosion fn No. 6 shaft, in which the accident oc- curred. They say the cause !s not known aBd that it will never be known. When the Tartar left Unlon at 7 o'clock this morning the latert news from No. 6 shaft wad that the flooding process was still being ontlnued. 7The fira was still burning, al- though not so fiercely as duripg the pre- cadiog thirty-six hours.

After leaving Vancouver on the Joan Sunday afternoon Dinsmuir called at Nanainfo, and started from Nanaimo for Unlon last night, but a heavy sea swept the sulf and as the wind rose a blinding snow- storm made navigation difficult. The Joan was finally compelled to return to Nanaimo at midnight, makiog a fresh start for Unlon batore daybroak. The families of the dead miners require financlal assistance, which will be forth- coming from more than one source.

Throughout the three acts there is an abundance of singing, and singing, too, that is attractive because of the abllity of the musiclans. Henrletta Lee, & woman of rare charm and beaut sings a pumber of popular aira and di- vides honors in this direction with Nettie The dancing of Bessie DeVole, # swoet, winsome little soubrette, was ro- ceived most enthusiastically. Barry Max- well and Charles P. Morrison contribute their share of entertainment in vocal se- lections. One of the best feautres of the cutertainment is the singing of the Traus- atlantic Comedy four, composed of Messrs. Taylor, Rale, Norman und Springer. “A Hole in the Ground’ will be the at- traction at Boyd's up to and includiag Wednesday night.

Powers is a comedian who enteriains after a fashio but his frequent reference to Council Bluffs becomes somewhat wearisome. Wilson and Waring give what is termed their “latest farcl frivolity,” which is made more than kood by the charm and handsome appear- ance of Miss Waring. Joe Santley, the boy sopramo, sings a number of popular songs, one of which, “My Home Girl," aroused exceptional interest hocause of its composition by Ed Cogley and Will Roch, local composers. Belmont & \Weston's wilitary travesty on “Shenandoab” s a laughabla bit of comedy, enlivened by sorae good sivging.

As a re-| flaction of the wmerry slde of Fihioplan lifa the show Is a success, the singing numbers being well rendered and the danc- Ing measuring up to the most approved ragtime. George Williams, Walker Swmart, 8. F. Dudley, Thomas Hodgeman, Marion Henry Annfe Ross and Bertis Ormes are con splcuous In the cast and their work is worthy of commendation.

A cholr of forty, re- splendent with new vestments, ably trans- | lated the work of the great composer, who 1s known as the “father of the oratorio,” even the hymns eung by the congregation | belng set to his music. Rev. Dr. Hirst | preached from the subject, “The Two Har- vests.” The program opened with an organ pre lude, “Andante Pomposo” and “Minuetto, by T. J. Kelly, the first of which is no | doubt new to the musical world of Omaha. | The pomp and grandeur of the Andante | contrasted beautifully with the delicacy of | the minuette Mr. John McCreary's superb temor was displayed to the best advantage in “The Total Eclipse,” a piece demanding perfect control of the volce. As a prelude to this Dr. Hirst read an explanatory excerpt from Milton’s poem “‘Sampson.” Durlug the singing of the celebrated Hal- lelujah chorus, the climax of the “Mes- slah,” the congregation arose. This was in accordance with a tradition to the eftect that when this selection was rendered in the presence of royalty in the latter part of the sixteenth century the king of Eng- land arose and stood uncovered as a com- pliment to the composer. Miss Frances Davis, already established as one of the leading contraltos of Omaha, sang “He Was Despised” with excellent effect. Miss Davis' singing Is especlally noted for the beauty of her tone production and enunclation. | Other notable numbers on the program were the “Largo,” played as an offertory #olo, and the chorus “Aud the Glory of thy Lord." THEY KEEP UP TO STYLE| Rubber Shoes A: :ol All Made o Same %, but Follow Foot- wear lons. “The revolution in the rubber footwear business of the country is remarkable” sald one of the Omaha wholesale dealers | the other day. “I have been selling goods In this line for over thirty years, starting n & retail house as clerk. In those days there were just three kinds of rubber| shoes—men’s, women's and children's. The shapes were all the same, and the over- whoe was made to go over any shoe of a corresponding size. It was one of those nondescript affairs, which would accommo- date itself In a measure to any foot. | “Today there are as many designs iu | rubber shoes as there are in other shoes | and wmapufacturers keep in touch with the shoe wanufacturers to anticipate any | change in the style, so that the new rub- Dber and the new shos may come out simul- taneously.

From the Pulpit Rev. H. C. Herring, pastor of the First Congregational church, preached Sunday morning on “Seventy-five Years of Congre gatlonalism.” He sald in part “The fundamental principle on which Con- gregationalism rests is the lndependence of the local church. It holds that the local church has the divinely-imparted right to make its own creed, receive and reject members upon conditions of its own making, to ordain its own minister and select fis own officers—the whole subject only to the law of the one Master—Christ. “Each member of the local church has the same privilege or authority as every other member, whether he be in the pulpit or in the pew. Congregationalism at iis inception was a declavation of independ- ence, leveled agaiust the rule of bishops, synods, creeds, traditions, popes and every other person and power whatsoever, ex- cept the great Head of the church. This principle of independency it holds in com mon with many other religious bodies. It is estimated that 98 per cent of the local religlous organizations of the United States are formed on this plan “‘Congregationalists couple with this prin- ciple another of almost equal importance - that of responsible fellowship. As a mem- ber of a sisterhood of churches each church nowledges the obligation to smek and give counsel and sympathy in matters of interest to any church or to all of them The well-known body called a ‘Congrega- tiopal council' is the expression of th's principle of fellowship. The characteristic tecdency of Congregationalism 's toward the practical application of Christianity 1o the affairs of daily life. It is increasingly Indisposed to discuss insoluble questions of theology and philosophy. It demands of its members and its ministers nothing but fdelity to the great essentlals of th gospel of Christ. In tendency it has been open-minded toward harmony with this as a denomination new truth, fraternal and charitable in its relation with other devominations and ardently interested in promoting education in al its forms.” Vil is Ever Present, he bed is bad everywhers and al- ways,” sald Rev.

A few minutes later the man disappeared, leaving the mite of & youngster almost buried in the cushions of ‘a car seat. Just as the train was about to pull out the babe' displayed precocity by registering a crying protest against going to the Black Hills unattended Depot officials heard the protest, und after making a hurried and ubsuccessful search for the man who put the baby aboard the train they took it into the depot temporary papa. Mr. Mik thought at first he would send the baby to the Child Saving institute, but the quarantine on that institution made such a disposition of the case impossible.

Wednesday night at Tama I got fnto the leading hotel early in the evening and se- | cured the last room availuble. The next | traln that came in brought four traveling men, none of whom could secure accommo- dations. The next night at Coon Raplds 1 couldn’t get a bed In any of the hotels. At Manning Friday night I got to my hotel about midnight and found three traveling men sleeping in the office. I was provided with a eot and filled out the quartet. These things are merely stra but they go to show that there are more traveling men on the road now than there has been at any time in my recollection.” WAR IN WALL PAPER TRADE | " said | might relate a to He Selling ods at Le Thun the Cont of Productl The wholesale wall paper dealers of the city report the best trade of any season since the business was established in the eit but the fluctuation in prices Is far from satisfactory.
