PERSHING GOES TO ENGLAND.

Will go to Franc? to Inspect Training
Camps and Await Army.
London, June 8.?A British transAtlantic
steamer came slowly to her
mooring in a British port this morning
with the most interesting complement
of passengers she ever carried
during her years plying between !
American and English ports.
The passengers Consisted of the;
staff of the first division of the American
army that will cooperate with
the British and French arimis on I
Trench soil'in the world war; Gen.
John J Persliing and his personal
staff and the officers of the general;
\v staff, a clerical force of the same
number, a score of British officers!
from Canada, and a large party of j
adventurous civilians, including sev-j
eral women.
. No Enemy Craft Sighted.
The ship arrived in an English harbor
late last night, having crossed i
without encountering any mishap or;
sighting a hostile craft. When the!
_ _ ? ? J V* I n !
passengers came uu ue<-i\ uu mc ioolj
morning of the voyage they found;
torpedo boat destroyers escorting
them on either side. When with;
difficulty they discovered through the |
marine glasses the colors which the;
escort flew?that the ships were I
American?there was great enthus-j
iasm aboard, which increased when
a patrol with -the same familiar flag
at the stern joined the little squadron
later.
The .coming of the American soldiers
had been kept secret outside
the official circles and there was no
*
crowding aboard at the pier. There]
was a large group of British artillery |
officers at the landing stage, with
their scarlet cap bands and gold trimmings,
which denoted that the wearers
belonged to the staff, the lord;
mayor with his gilt chains, officers;
and the officials of the port, to give
^ welcome to the Americans.

Whenx the British general escort-!
\d Gen. Pershing and his personal!
staff to the deck, tlie hand played!
"The Star Spangled Banner." and all j
the military men in sight stood at at-j
tention. while civilians uncovered. |
Gen Pershing inspected the guard i
of honor, and walking along lines
of soldiers, talked to several of the
privates who displayed gilt strings;
on their sleeves, signifying wounds5
received in action. Then the hand
played the British anthem, the English
soldiers marched smartly away

No Hc j>e For Miners.
Butte, Mont., June 9.?All hopes
that any of the unaccounted for miners,
believed to number .more tliamj
175, had escaped from the North;
Butte mines, in which fire broke out I
last night, were abandoned tonight
when the helmet men penetrated to
the 200-foot level of the Spectacular
mine from adjoining mines, waded
through water up to arm pits, encountered
strong gas and saw many
bodies which they were unable to
recover. Forty dead had been t%ken
out up to tonight. It is believed
the mine damage will exceed $1,000,000.
The Granite mountain shaft,
3,400 feet deep, was a roaring chimney
tonight.
fir-o u-hiVl-, ctarteH on the 2.

400-foot level spread quickly, cutting
off the escape of men on lower
levels.
Warning of their danger came soon
enough to permit men on the level to
escape. They immediately formed
rescue parties and attempted to go;
down the shaft to the'men believed
entombed, but failed.
One hour after the outbreak of the'
fire, L. D. Frink, superintendent; M.j
D. Conners. foreman; X. D. Brawley,i
general manager of the granite shaft, 1
owned by the North Butte company,;
declared they could account for 218 j
out of 415 who were in the shaft;
when the fire started. i
and the Americans returned to the!
ship. Later Gen Pershing received
the newspaper men.
Before leaving the steamer Gen. j
Pershing and the other officers bade
farewell to the captain, for whose;
skillful management of the vessel on j
the trying and dangerous toyage they
expressed great admiration.
On to London.
A special train carried contingents
of the American forces to London.

trees of the English early summer.
Many of the wayside scenes
were nove] to the new-comers, particularly
the war-time sight of women
and girls working in the fields and occasional
groups of smiling German
prisoners of war at work in their
gray uniforms, recruits at drill in
numerous camps, airplanes afloat and
quick glimpses of batteries as the
train sped along the country road.
The arrival of tlie Americans in
London also was a quick one. The

With corn above 50 cents, hogs eat
their heads off very quickly. The
hog that takes two or three months
to get on full feed never brings you
a profit. x
When you are ready to put your "
shoats on feed, begfoi with the B. A.
Thomas Hog Medicine. Use regularly
>and watch your shoats round out
into fat hogs in nine months?hogs
going well over 200 pounds and as
high as 240 pounds. Figure the average
feeding and you will see why
the B. A. Thomas medicine is a good
investment. Try feeding out your
liogs on this plan and if you are not
more than pleased, we will refund
the cost of the medicine.
