Coal Miners Will Profit by
Federal Experiments
TESTS OF EXPLOSIVES
DlrlftlorTof Geologlcnl SurveyArranges Station for Trying OutSlethods of Lessening Horrors ofCollieries Baaed on Ile ult In Enrope Miniature Mine to DC Used
Determined endeavors to stop the appalling sacrifice of human lives in thecoal mines of the United States fire to bemade at once by tho fuel division of theGeological Survey thus supplementing Itsefforts tp lessen tho waste of fuel In min-
ing operationsPlans have drawn for a unique
experimental station at which tests oftho various dynamites and powders usedIn blasting coal will be made with aview to accurately determining their safety in tho presence of the deadly fire-
damp and perhaps equally deadly coalgas Explosives of all sorts will behurled by means of a mortar into a mam-
moth boilerplate cylinder which has pre-viously been filled with gus and the ef-
fects will be carefully noted If Ignitionfalls after severe teat the explosiveswill be known as permissible explo-
sives and their use will bo urged uponthe mine owners of tho country-
In addition there will be important ex-
periments in rescue work It is declaredthat in serious gas explosions in mineshundreds of lives could be saved were Itpossible for the rescue party to enterimmediately after the accidents As it isnow the deadly firedamp often holds themen back for hours while their comradesare slowly being suffocated or burned todeath
Can Go Into Thick SmokeIn their Investigations so far the gov
ornment experts have found an apparatusIn Europe which when worn by the
of a rescue party enables thornto enter any place where there is g s-
At the experimental station a miniaturemine will be filled with dense smoke amipractical demonstrations in the savingof life with this apparatus will he made
A definite location for the experimentalstation has not yet been selected but itis probable that the station will be in thePlttsburg district
We Intend to begin the erection of thisstation within a few weeks sold J AHolmes chief of the Technologic Breachof the Geological Survey There seemsto be no end to the gas and coal dust ex-plosions in mines Instead of grtfwlngless these horrors appear to multiply-ing
From our investigations so far theUnited States Is behind Europe in safe-guarding the lives of the men In themines England and Belgium have hadfor years splendid experimental stationsand in these countries there are but fewcasualties in the mines The Belgianmines are notorious for the presence oftire damp yet that country has enjoyeda wonderful Immunity from these terribleexplosions
Permissible ExpIoHlVca
As a result of the experiments In Eng-land there are a number of permissibleexplosives and these must be used bythe miners in tho blasting of coal andno others They also have in Englandwhat Is known as the limit chargewhich must not be exceeded on pain of
penaltyOfficials of the Geological Survey have
been watching with considerable dismayfor some time the frequently recurringaccidents In different parts of the country Some of the recent mine explosions-In one State West Virginia are as fol-

Tells of Japans Welcome to
Christian Delegations
WASHINGTON MEN-
S IV Woodward and John J Slemnn Jr Among 3Icn at WorldsStudent Conference Count Okunia
Gives Garden Pnrty Mnranl ItoGives to Aid the Cause
John R Mott secretary of the WorldsStudent Christian Fodoratien hiss Just
returned from the far East where hehas visited important centers of Chris-
tian Association work Including the Phil-
ippines Korea and Japan He returned toNew York Saturday by way of the Siberianrailroad having been granted a specialpass with Ills party by the Czar Mr Mottgives the following general statementconcerning the recent World StudentConference hold in Tokyo to whichMessrs S W Woodward and John BSloman Jn of this city were delegates
The World Student Conference heldIn Tokyo several ago was the mostmomentous gathering over held in the In-
terest of Christianity in Asia and one ofthe most significant in the annals ofChristianity This may be judged in thefirst place V the marked recognitionwhich it received from the Japanese gov-
ernment and eminent men of that empire The minister of foreign affairsViscount Hayashl not only gave an impressive message of greeting but alsoaccorded a special reception to Ute en
tire conference in his palaces The min-
ister of education the most influentialleader In educational circles In Japan alsorecognized the conference by a greetingshowing special discrimination and heartyinterest
Count OkunmCount Okuina of the two toading
elder statesmen of Japan not only gave-
a garden party to the entire conferencebut also delivered a most remarkable
showing an appreciation of the partwhirl Christianity has had in the makingof the new Japan and commenting on thevital relation of Christian Associa-tion movement in its work among the educated chaises The mayor of Tokyo andthe foremost financial men of the capitalcity ateo gave a brilliant reception to theconference and delivered an address ofwelcome which has been favorably com-mented on throughout the entire farEast Marquis Ito the most InfluentialJapanese statesman contributed 10909yen 5 0 toward the expenses of theconference and sent a cable messagefrom Korea which made a profound
Rulers of other nationsspecial messages to the conference Nonewere received with so much enthusiasm-as the one from President Roosevelt notexcepting one from the King of England
Buddhists Itlect AlsoAnother indication of the mighty
power and influence of the Tokyo con-ference was seen In the attitude and ac-
tion of the nonChristian religion ofJapan While this Christian conferencewas in sesBlon there was also going onin Toyko a Buddhist conference attendedby 3W9 delegates representing all thegreat sects which have over 10603400 adherents This conference sent a messageof congratulation and good will to theChristian student convention This ac-
tion Is unprecedented and almost incredi-ble At the same time the Shinto priestswero holding a great convention in TokyoThey also took the initiative and sent adeputation with a most striking messageof greeting and sympathy This also isindicative of a change which live yearsago would have been simply Incredible
Another proof of the unique Influenceof this worlds gathering was the factthat it unlocked the doors of all the othercities throughout the empire of JapanAt the close of the conference wentforth from Tokyo nearly twenty deputa-tions of from two to five workers eachto proclaim the message of Christianityto tho educated classes of Japan Theytouched every center of importancethroughout all the islands
Cordially ReceivedWherever they went they received a
reception characterized by marked cor-
diality and heartiness The highest municipal and provincial officials the cham-
bers of commerce the educational lead-
ers and other prominent classes partici-pated In this universal welcome The attitude of these classes naturally arrestedthe attention and commanded the confi-
dence of the students and other educatedpeople so that the meetings addressedby these Christian deputations were Invariably thronged with eager and recep-
tive listeners Never before has a Christian gathering met with such a reception-or exerted such a widespread influencein so short a time
The conference was attended by 600
leading delegates from twentyfive na-
tions It was preemlnentty OrientalWhile all the nations of Europe and NorthAmerica South Allies and Australasiawere represented fully fivesixths of thedelegates were Asiatics
Delegates from JapanThere were strong delegations from
Japan Korea China Manchuria SlamIndia Ceylon and the Philippines
acquainted with the facts lookingover this picturesque and representativebody would say that there wore presented
the very springs of Influence and power In
the entire Asiatic churchSome would say that the most con
vincing evidence of tho marvelous powerof the Tokyo conference was the cam-
paign of evangelism which accompaniedind followed It Evangelistic meetingswere conducted dally of such remarkableinfluence that they made a deep impres-
sion on the educational classes of TokyoNot less than 10000 Japanese Chineseand other students thronged these meet-ings In connection with the visits of thedeputations following tho conference tensof thousands of students and other edu-
cated men listened to the proclamation ofthe claims of Christ These constitutedthe most fruitful series of meetings ofthis kind over conducted among the stu-
dents of any nation

NEW DISEASE DISCOVERED
Cross Between Scarlatina and theGerman Measles
Dr Scherexche Tflky Report Kx-
IilnhiN Ailinctitn HitlieHo Untie
Huribvd FnllH to Immunize
Good morning Have the children hadthe fourth disease-
If you are not quite rare that havebeen to afflicted you want to take amedical dictionary and the last iewte ofthe Health Reports of the Marine liesplfetl Service and read up the symptomsas described in an article by Pawed As-
sistant Surgeon J W SchereschewakyTo set at reet any suspicion that thefourth disease is a Joke it should be
stated right at the start that the fourthdisease Is a cross between scarlatina
German measles with a decided lean-ing toward scarlet fever that like deathit has all seasons for its own that itplays no favorites having been observedin as wen as in children
There is no cause for disappointment-or impatience as the disease already extots In a number of American cities isspreading as fast as it can and in duetime will get around to everybody
It Is Interesting to note that the phy-
sicians nil over the country are hoppjng-to the idea of a fourth disease as adistinct disease with great alacrity s itclears up many puzzling points aboutscarlet fever and explains why patientswho have had the real red fever have re-
cently taken what almost looked like thegenuine article the second tilde whenthey should have been absolutely im-
muneAfter all the bad things have been said
about this fourth disease It wilt becomforting to know that while It captures a city with a rush and gets every-thing In sight it comes and goes fasterand It makes less trouble for the patientthan does scarlet fever or any of theeruptive ailments
Dr Schercechhewsky in summing uphis article on the fourth disease says
It would seem to be established be-
yond reasonable doubt that the fourthdisease complies with those conditionswhich entitle It to a place as a new
in the catalogue of the eruptivefevers namely that it has been seen toattack individuals who have had rubellaand scarlatina and that conversely itdoes not protect against either of thesediseases Moreover a certain amount ofinternal evidence can be adduced in sup-port of the independent existence of thisdisease
