The directors also made two deserved
promotions, advancing C. Otis Fitch to
the post oi: teller from bookkeeper. and
Jay S. Buckley from clerk to book-
keeper. his action on the part of the
directors meets with commendation on
all sides, for both young men have
been efficient and popular employes of
the batik. Mr. Fitch has been connect-

years, beginning as clerk, from which
he was advanced to bookkeeper, which
position he has filled very creditably.

posed to be dead, as the result of
three gas explosions in the Boswell
Mine of the United Coal Company,
Somerset County, last night, and

of an investigating party that. had
«uttered the mine to make an inspec-
tion of suspicious gas traces before
