remains of a small fire, wherein
paper had been burned and pos-
sibly the woman's hat. No person
has been missed in New West-
minster or vicinity for months. The
cause of death is not yet ascertain -
.0d, but as the clothes are badly
torn in places, there is a probability
that she met with a violent, death
during a struggle. The corpse has
apparently been exposed to the
elements about four months.

Third Accident to Allan Liners Since the
Opening of Navigation.
A despatch from Montreal says:
A mareonigra,n was on Thursday
received by the Allan Line from
Captain Fairfull of the Tunisian,
stating that that vessel had suffered
an accident almost similar to that
which recently befell the Lake
Champlain, and that he had been
compelled to put into St. Johne,
Newfoundland, for safety. The
Tunisian, while steaming slowly,
inward -bound, through heavy field
ice, struck an unusually heavy
mass and started a plate under
her fore'peak. The broken plate
caused quite a heavy leak, and Cap-
tain Fairfull considered it his duty
to head at once for St. John's,!
which was only sixty utiles dis- .
tant. The vessel will be overhauled
there, and if it is found that she
has sustained serious injuries the
passengers will bo forwarded from
St. John's across Newfoundland to
Port Basque by rail, thence by the
Reid Newfoundland Company's
boats to Sydney, where they will
be taken by special trains to St.
John, N.B., and Montreal. 11 the
Tunisian has to go into dry dock
the passengers booked for her sail-
ing from Montreal on the 21st in-
:)t.•r.tct will be transferred to an-
other of the Allan boats. This is

Three Men Killed in the Red Jacket
Mine in Michigan.
A despatch from Calumet, Mich.,
says: Death which was swift and
sure, but none the leas terrible,
came to three miners at the Red
Jacket mine here on Thursday
afternoon when the ground upon
which they were at work suddenly
gave way, precipitating all three
into a yawning abyss. For a dist-
ance of six thousand feet the shaft
runs down into the very bowels of
the earth, and through this openmg
tete unfortunate men were shot ns
though impelled by a mighty cata•
pult. The bodies were crushed in-
to an unrecognizable mass of blood
and splintered bone. The men were
all foreigners. The shaft of the
Red Jacket urine is famous all over
the world as the deepest working
mine in existence.

TAP EARTH'S INTERIOR HEAT.
Costly Evperiutent Made Neces-
sary by Decreasing Coal Supply.
Sir William Ramsay's recent sug-
gestion that the interior heat of
the earth might be tapped by means
of a bore hole, is not exactly new.
indeed, experiments have actually
been undertaken with that and in
view.
One of the most important was
carried out some years back by the
German Government at a place
called Paruschowitz, in Silesia,
when a depth of 9,572 feet was
reached. Of course, the bore is of
very slender dimensions, three feet
six inches in diameter at the top,
decreasing gradually to two feet six
inches at the der:h of ono mile, at
which it remains for the rest of the
distance.
At La Chapelle is a bore of a si-
milar kind. and nearly as deep,
constructed by the French Govern-
ment for experimental purposes;
and another similar one exists near
Stavropol. in Southern Russia.
In each case, it was the original
intention to carry the bore much
lower, but the expenw was found
to be prohibitive, when contrasted
with the prespeetive results. That
is the worst of such work. After
h certain depth the cost iucreasca
by. leaps and bounds, and the time
occupied lengthens proportionately.
Thus. .the Hon. Charles Parsons,
of turbine fame, who has made a
special study of the question, esti-
mates that to drill a holo ten miles
deep through the earth's crust
would ct $25,090,000, and take
eighty years.ul
Tho job is'a stupendous one. Yet
it may be necessary for us to un-
dertake it. Our coal supply will
not last forever, and, when this is
exhausted, the greatest industrial
communities will be those that have
the most direct means of access to
rho stored -up heat of the earth'a
interior.
