, 11 was s cold, bright morning in Feb
ruary. Just fifty-one years ago.
Snow had fallen en the mountains ths
night before; ths flakes had been tosssd
heliar snd skelter by a wind that grew
colder every ro -ent. so thst by morning,
after the storm nad subsided, the surface
had frosan Into a glistening crust. When
,the sua peeped over the mountains to the
east an early riser, looking from the door
of his little shanty one of the few
shsniies which then accounted for ths
town of Summit Mill, Fa. noticed to ihe
westward something that held his gase.
A. thick volume of smoke was pouring
from the shaft of a coal mine!
. At first he doubted ths evidence of his
senses.' Then terror gripped his heart.
And it seemed that aa hs looked ths
rlouds ef black smoke grew denser.
', Over la ths Hit the red flush of dswa
biased upon tbs hillsides of snow. In
hs little shanties miners, their wives and
ehlldrea awoke, and as ths dawn floodud
tbs bars rooms, fear filled their hearts,
tor a cry aousded clear and alarming
through the streets:
. 'Firs! Fire! The coal mines afire!"
Through the village, and afar, ths ter
ror spread, la ths shaft of the cos) mine
a firs biased like a furnace. All efforts
to extinguish it proved unavailing
Star then, for fifty-one yeara. the fire
has burned. Summit Mill has grown to

lhood and womanhood; there have been
weddlnga and rejoicings, snd funerala
and sorrows still the fire hss eatea Its
way under ths ground steadily and re
morselessly. And only now. by means o
an engineering feat which will met more
than 21.000.000. does the conquest of ths
blaxe aeem probable.
Aa time passed the me becajne a mat
ter almost of indifference to the people
of the locality. Underground the furnace
raged, red hot. Not more than a mils
a n ay. people went to their w ork In other
mines, grew old with the passing of
yeara; over on the hill they knew men
were working to extinguish the fire, but
they knew It biased onward deaplte their
efforts; they ceased to cars.

.Remorselessly the fire ate under the
mountain, a red-eyed dragon, burning;
down at the mouth of the ah ft, sa ths
years pawed, two men stood, grim yot
patient sentinels, watching at the mouth
of the red dragon's lair. I'p on tho hill,
digging Into the earth, men sank 'boles. Into
which they poured almoot InexhsuisUble
streams of water and "gob;" sometimes
there would arise bursts rf wlaanlo steam,
and the fire would pass on, all the water
used in vain.
Over In the village settlors cams from
Hungary they oatne, hardy and rugged and
swarthy, women in gaudy rod and yollow
turbans; from Italy they oaroe. sunburned
men oad women and children; from Poland
snd Russia, from Germany and Roumanla
they came; and the little village of Summit
HIU grew.
Fine frame houses were orooted; streets
were laid out; pretty homes were to bo
seen, with roots blooming on trelllsed
porches In summer time. Still tho firs

were opened for the little ones; the devout
built churches; 81. Joeeph's roae 00 tbs

prettiest corners of the town; a lAjthoran

summer after summer brought ttousajtds

regions waa unconquered.
liloeklaa; tho Fr.
Rut at lam, the engineera ot the Iehigh
ol and Navigation onmpeny declare, tne
fire anil be blocked. An engineering feat
will slop the hungry "blaxe.
This, after hundreds of tnoueand of Sol-
la rs had been spent. In 14S2 the company
undertook to make an open cut through
tho hill to block off ths tire. An excava
tion of 2,000 feet was made In the earth.
For some unknown reason the work was
abandoned; the fire came up to the cut,
swerved aside and blHhely pursued lis way.
Sixteen yeara ago they began drilling
boreholes Into the earth. They sank holes
until they struck cracks or open ahafta,
when they would, pour Into the mine tons
of refuse snd wster or wet clay. The pur
pose was to block the fire by walls of this
wests mstsrisl. Into SOO to TOO holes were
poured thousands of tons of "gob" cr
slush. Soma required as many as 2,000 tons
Of waste matter.
But ths firs orept around these impeding
walls and burned on. At last the company
realiaed that because of the Irregularity of
the vein this method could not prove suc
cessful. Then It evolved the scheme which
it believes will flnslly block the fire.
The new plsn means tbs msklng of a
solid wsll of clay on concrete in the mine
up to which ths fire will burn, when It
will porforc have to dls out. Thla under
taking, It ia said, will cost more then
21.000,000.
tlx Shafts Betas Itak.
Beginning at the top of a hill mora than
a mils from Summit Hill, six' shafts sre
being sunk Into the earth. At ths lop of
the hill an open cut 100 feet long and twelve
feet wide. Is being made In the earth. It
will be excavated until the coal vein is
reached. Then all the coal at that point
will be removed. Two other cuts being
dug are twenty feet long by twelve feet
wide; the other three ars fifty feet long
by twelve feet tn width. All sre dug fifty
feet apart and will be excavated to the
coal vein, probably to a depth or 200 feet.
Whan the coal vein Is readied nien will
begin taking out the coal beneath the
shafta and tunneling In under ths Interven
ing ground between the shafts. Whan all
ths coal Is removed the excavation will be
filled, either with clay or a composition of
concrete, which will form a thick and solid
wall in ths mine.
Early In January this work was begun
under the direction of C. T. Starr. It will
be finished, according to the engineer,
within five months The wall which wi!l
replace the coal vein in ths mine will ex
tend to the bouom ef the vein la the val
ley, which la filled with .water. It will
form an Impassable barrier.
As ravenous as ever, the red tongues will
crawl onward underground until they strike
the wall. Then the demon will angrily lick
up the last vestlgea of coal; it will crawl
along the wall to the wster below. And
then, the engineers declare, the half-century
fire near Summit Hill will burn out.
Scientific, engineering will have conquered

William Allen White tells a story In an
article in the American Magaslne for April
that la calculated to make the readera of
the story ponder. As It epitomises so much
of the good and most of the bad In mu
nicipal life, the story of these two men,
about whom the parable ia told, bears re
peating: "During the early years of this century
two men lived in a great city in ths south
west epitomised so entirely much of the
good and most of the bad in our municipal
life that the story of these two men insofar
ss the story Illustrates the parable of
politics In the great cities of the land,
should be set down here. One msn wss
I rich. He had family. His rather waa a
personage In the state and In the nation
forty years ago. The other man came up
from the people, lie waa no one in par
ticular. The rich mail kept out of politics;
he waa in business snd In society. He waa
pillar of society. The poor man went
into politics, perhaps with the Idea tnat
some day he might become a pillar ot
society. He went to ths common council
for the glory of it. To go he went and
asked for the city boss to send him. A
city boss always helps men who are in
politics for the honor it brings. And after
the poor man hud been in the council for
time, he found did this common coun
cilmanthat to get results, to get favors
for his ward, he would have to tie up with
the "combine." And the boss cinched up
the girth of control on thst common coun
cilman two holes when the common coun
cilman Joined the gang. Then when the
boss filled It so that a little money might
be distributed among the faithful, ths com
mon councilman accepted ths common prac
tice and took his share. And ths other men,
the pillar of aodety, the rich man, knew lu
Also he knew that much money was dis
tributed smotig the councllmen by ths boss
and his friends. For part of ths money
came from funds which the rich man was
guarding. He knew how fraiichlaes wars
bought for his client and friends were In
the market.
"But It came to paaa when things reach
their worst that the pillar of society grew
disgusted wtlh the miserable business. And
when the member of the common council
heard a great orator tell of deeds upon
the battlefield of Gettysburg, the council
man rose wlille the band played the "Star
Spangled Banner," and sain, as his eyes
filled and his voice choked. "Oh, tf 1 could
only die for my country." And then the
crash came. Arrests for bribing and ac.
ceptlng bribes were made. Whereupon ti t
prosecuting attorney began to get anony
mous letters, faultlessly typed, telling him
what witnesses to summon, wha.t questions
to ask them and In general how to get at
the truth. Every day came these letters,
and the thieves In tho city, big and little,
were In conatnrnatiOTi at the acumen of
the district attorney. The district attorney
never fathomed the mystery of his anony
mous friend's identity. But hs found that
ths Information was Invariably accurate.
So the district attorney followed the blind
lead and got results. Hs knew thst soms
one was saplring beyond his courage, thst
some one saw the sin of bribery, that some
man apparently an educated man, obvi
ously a man high in financial and social
councils, wsa holding out s life line to
the people. And then one day the msn
who had wept for a chance to die for his
country fled from his country to a foregn
land In fear of a prison, and the pillar of
soclely died by his own hand, sn absconder
of the funds of widows and orphans. And
the day the rich man died tbs anonymous
letters stopped."

of the virus has been removed from the circulation. The least taint left in
the blood will sooner or later, cause la fresh outbreak of the trouble, with all
its hideous and destructive symptoms of ulcerated mouth and throat, copper
colored splotches, falling; hair, sores and ulcers, etc No other medicine so
6urely cures contagious blood poison as S. S. S. , It goes down into the
blood and steadily and surely drives out every particle of the infection. It
absolutely and perfectly purifies the blood, and leaves this vital fluid as fresh,
rich and healthy as it was before the destructive virus of contagious blood
poison entered the circulation. S. S. S. quickly takes effect on the blood,
and gradually the symptoms disappear, the health is improved, the skin
cleared of all spots, sores and other blemishes, the hair stops coming out,
the mouth and throat heal and when S. 8. S. has cleansed the system of the
poison no trace of the disease is left. S. S. S. cures contagious blood poison
because it is the greatest of all blood purifiers, tested and proven for more
than forty years. Book on this disease with suggestions for home treatment,
