K. U. ENGINEERS WORK IN PITTSMONT MINES
Begin as "Muckers," But Are Rapidly Advanced Because of Training
A. W. Alwa, James A. Sultazberger
B. Farrar and H. W. Hynn, all students in the department of mining engineering spent the summer in the Pittsburgh mines of Butte, Mont. They obtained work in the mines through the help of H. R. Dingman, who is working in the East Butte矿业。
After obtaining cards from the labor office, established by the mining interests of Butte to keep men with bad records or I. W. w. followers in line, the company started in as "nuckers" in the Pitman mine. They soon found the value of their school training, for advancement came rapidly and they were made regular miners and got experience in shaft sinking and in mining.
After working there for two months Mr. Waite got the chance to take mining first aid training and helmet work. A man who has had training in helmet work is never in want of a job in this part of the country as there is a hill which is on fire in places and has been burning for years so he is to be forced constantly and is a measure to the surrounding mines.
To take the helmet training Mr. Waite had to go to the East Colusa mine. While there the mine superintendent took an interest in him and offered him a job in the mine, fighting the fire and also promised to give him every chance to learn actual mining. Mr. Waite did this fishing and stayed two weeks, quitting only after he had been overcome by gas.
Paris to have new "Deaths Cupboard"
While at Butte the Jayhawkers met men from Colorado, Californias schools of mines and were much surprised to find these students had never heard of the department of mining engineering here.
Paris, Oct. 4. (United Press)—When the new Paris Morgue is finished, the grim little building behind Notre Dame, full of tragic memories, will be pulled down. The cafe proiller on the other side of the street will have to change his sign, which has been there for more than a century and which reads: "You must see what you saw."
"Whatever you do, whatever you say,
'You're better off here than across the
mud.'
Middle Ages each municipal division of Paris had a morgue. The princeiling or duke who ruled there had property rights over every body found in the street. The first morge serving the entire city was built in the sixteenth century at the Chatelet. Since that time the location has been changed three times, always, however, being in the district known as the Ile de la Cite, the heart of the capital.
With characteristic Parisian mookery, the people refer to the morgon as "The Cold Mint Market," "Double Dealer" or "The Salon of the Rejected."
Amherst Expedition Returns With Rare Specimens
MIOCENE SKELETONES FOUND
Amherst, Mass., Oct 4 (United Press)-Skeletons of animals which roamed the North American continent in the Miocene age, more than 2,000-000 years ago, have been discovered by an Amherst college expedition which recently returned from South Dakota and Wyoming.
The collection includes many rare specimens. Two of the skeletons have set to be identified, and Professor Frederic B. Loomis, who headed the expedition, feels certain that they are the first of their type discovered.
The trip, which was made entirely by automobile, was financed by the class of 1896. Two months were spent on the expedition, one half in exploration.
The devotion-to-duty of a sheriff in a town near Mitchell, Nebraska, resulted in the expedition loaining a fine skeleton of a camel. After working all day in excavating the skeleton and bandaging it for shipment, members of the party retired for the night. In the morning the skeleton was found destroyed. An explanation was forthcoming from the surprised sheriff who related that he was that a party that arrived there region, supposedly from "the region," had discovered a new method of hiding its devotion. The "alert" sheriff thought

Only Two Septembers Hotter Than This Year
BEAT THE ARMY!
University of Kansas weather records, going back 55 years show only two Septembes that were hotter than the one just closed, and only twice before did Septembes temperatures go above the 100 mark. The hottest September days on record at the University wein in 1923 were 105; this number went up 105; in 1882, when it reached 105; and this year, 1922, at 104.
The average September temperature for 55 years is 69.31 degrees, while the average for this past month was 72.13 degrees. The normal minimum for September is 39.7 degrees. September had a 24 percent decrease in the percentage of cloudiness, compared with the normal of 37.93. The run of wind, rainfall, and relative humidity were nearly normal.
