MINERS HIT BIGGEST MINERS HIT BIGGEST STORIES ANOTHER SNAG AT ARGONAUT MINE, JACKSON, Cal., Sept. 15.—Time for possible rescue of the 47 imprisoned miners in the Argonaut gold mine was postponed today an additional 24 hours—until Monday at the earliest. The formal announcement of the rescue committee showed that on the 3600-foot level during the last 24 hours the rescue tunnel has progressed only 22 feet toward the rock wall it is penetrating—less than one foot an hour. On the 3900-foot level 16 feet were gained in the same period making a still slower pace. Twenty-two feet of muck and 77 feet of rock remain to be generated. Gas, the most deadly of all the elements, the men have had to battle, if they are still living, may never have reached the miners, or if it has, it may have been diluted sufficiently so that it did not prove fatal. Dr. L. H. Duschak, consulting chemical engineer of the state industrial accident commission, makes this statement, after air tests and estimates made during the entire past week. Jackson, desperately anxious to hope, has once more taken heart since the results of his work were announced. Duschak sampled the air coming below the 2400-foot level in the Muldon shaft. This air is a mixture of gases coming from the fire zone in the Argonaut and gases from various underground sources which mingle at the lower levels. Duschak said the gas coming up is still highly poisoned and would cause death in a few minutes. At the same time he believes the analysis shows the presence of enough relatively pure air in the lower levels to keep the men alive in case they are getting this air alone and are below the point where the fire zone funes reach. The racing crews of miners socking the rescue of their fellow workers are tolling like Trojans nearly a mile under ground at .0632 Operative. The largest exclusion So.

DEDICATE OLIVE PAROCHIAL SCHOOL The dedication of the new parochial school in Olive will be held today. LONDON, Sept. 15.—More than $60,000,000 in property has been destroyed, at least 1000 Christians have been massacred, 14 Americans are believed to have been murdered, a number of girls in the American college have been carried into captivity and the city of Smyrna is still in flames and being looted by the victory drunk Turkish army. The American consulate is reported to have been burned, more than 100,000 people are facing death by starvation and British warships have threatened to open fire on the Turkish forces unless the disorders cease at once. An American professor was cruelly beaten by the Turks and was rescued barely in time to save his life. American marines are ashore in the city, which is being looted. They have saved many and several hundred refugees have been taken to other ports by American destroyers. The most atrocious cruelties are being practiced on all Christians who fall into the hands of the Turks. An unconfirmed report arriving by way of Berlin says that British and Turkish forces have engaged in battle in the vicinity of Constantinople, which Great Britain is determined to hold and which the victorious Turks, who have routed the Greek armies, have announced their intention of retaking. Official dispatches to the foreign office here confirmed the reports of massacres and looting. All French troops have been ordered withdrawn from the Aslatic side of the Dardanelles. 45 FIRMS EXHIBIT AT ORANGE-CO FAIR Every industrial concern and most of the high class and specialty business firms should have a booth at the Orange-co Fair at Santa Ana.

Twenty-five thousand or more will visit the fair displays, it is anticipated, and Metzgar pointed out that this alone should result in the quick reservation of all available space by Orange-co firms, for it is a splendid chance to do advertising and demonstration, and exhibitors should receive benefits several times the cost of display, Metzgar said. That at least a considerable number of county firms appreciate the opportunity offered for display is evidenced by the fact that more than 40 firms have already taken space and are preparing extensive exhibits.
