Davis sells paint. Suit Mkely to lie Dropped. It Is now likely that the suit brought by State's Attorney General MUton Rcmloy to restrain A. W. Smith from digging a ditch for the alleged purpose of draining Noble's lake will bo dropped , as it appears that the proceedings were brought under a misconception of the real facts In the mat ter. County Attorney Kllpack yesterday re ceived a letter from the attorney general In which ho writes- : "If the parties do not Intend to make n. drain which taps the lake proper , the state cannot afford to Interfere , unless the con struction ot this drain is such as would necessarily crawfish to the lako. A party owning land adjoining a meander line could not construct a drain so close to the meander fine that the water would break through. The state would have a right to require the banks ot the lake to bo kept unimpaired. " County Attorney Kllpack In company with Supervisor John Matthews , when the case waa called to his attention , Inspected the ditch nnd found that It was at least sixty to eighty rods from the meander line or banks ot the lake proper and that Smith was constructing It for the purpose solely of draining the water off hla land which had boon flooded by the recent rise ot the Mis souri. These facts will now bo laid before the attorney general by < Mr. Kllpack and ho is of the opinion that the suit will bo dropped. 0.

Throe agAi- , i to have 'been killed and It Is feared"ftit'many more arc dead. Two bodies were brought to the surface at noon , but owing to their black and mutilated con dition they have not 'been ' Indcntlfled. The explosion occurred In entry No. 10 and the force was so great that eight men who had just descended Into the shaft wore knocked down and seriously Injured. All escaped , however , but a boy named Solo mon , who had an ugly cut across the throat , but who went back , refusing to leave the mine until his father and brother were got ten out. The mine Is operated by a shaft and there Is no other way of escape for the entombed miners. The work of rescue Is being pushed vigor ously , but so far only two bodies have been recovered. There Is Intense excitement about the mine and the walls of wives , mothers and children who surrounded the mouth of the pit are frightful to hear.

There was great excitement when the explosion oc curred and a large crowd of women and children quickly collected about the pit mouth , walling for those In the mlno , who might bo dead. It was several hours before the extent of the disaster was known1 as the minors who escaped by the two exits had to walk sev eral miles to return to the pit moutli.

Two regiments , Colonel I'ettlt's and Colonel Hell's , are moro than two-thirds full. Tbo regimental recruiting officers will begin active work thla week. In dependently of the recruiting stations , and from reports General Corbln la encouraged to believe that the remaining 10,000 men will bo secured within a fortnight. The authorities are building great hopes on this now array , which will have been organized In such a short period , and whether its services will bo required In the Philippines or not it Is the president's ex pectation that it will become part of the permanent military establishment. Even If peace U made soon it is estimated by offi cials that with the new dependencies we will require a standing army of at least 80,000 men , which will l > o tbo united strength of the regular forces and the provisional army. U is largely for this reason that the presi dent determined to appoint only men with military records to otllcor these now regi ments. The politicians were given to under stand that they must confine- their candl- I dotes to men In the regular or volunteer ! service whoso military record * were without blemish.

By striking the coatmakers , It was said , could force the pressers to desist from their demands , par ticularly as to piecework.
