A POWERFUL SCARE.-Ever since the
terrible calamity in the mines, the men
employed in the Yellow Jacket have
naturally been more alive to possible
danger than formerly, and consequently
on the lookout, ready to rush out in
case of any alarm. Last Saturday, for
instance, a black current of air drove
a small quantity of gaseous smoke or
vapor through from the Kentuck into
| the Yellow Jacket, creating considera-
BILE CONSERVATION among the miners for
a short time until it subsidized. About
10 o'clock Sunday forenoon, however,
the most powerful scare occurred. The
air at the s00-foot level, where the prin-
cipal work is doing, is very hot, and,
in order to counterfeit the effects of the
foul gas occasionally experienced, the
men have bottles of ammonia. or harts-
horn, to take a reviving sniff at when
they choose. One of them, feeling a
little dizzy, picked up his bottle of
hsrtshorn, which had become consider
ably heated, and gave it a shake, pre-
paratory to removing the stopper, when |
it suddenly burst, sending forth such a
strong Volume of pungent odor that it
knocked him down. A companion near
by, seeing him fall, thought of the fatal
gas at once, aud Immediately rushed
past him, like race horse, for the
shaft, but had not run more than half
dozen yards. when he hit against
low cap timber with such force that il
knocked him down also. The alarm
became general and a great rush was
made for the shaft, and, by means of
the cages, to the surface. Fresh hands
went down to the rescue, and the two
supposed victims were found alive and
kicking, and fully able to tell their own
story Gold I'LL -Nslrs.

Yesterday afternoon an old lady OF seventy-eight

at No. 80 Mohawk street, committed suicide under
the following ctrcumstances:-For long time past

the top Of the stairs to speak upon which she would
open the door OF her room for their admission.
Yesterday she received her breakfast and dinner az

her grandson, young man about twenty years
OF age on taking mp her tea ana speaking at the top
OF the stairs received no answer. He approached

reply. ne set the tea things down and opened the
door. He thon saw his grandmother standing near
the window, her back To the door, her hands hang.
ing down by her sdc, and she apparently looking
out of the window down into the yard. Upon
speaking to her and still receiving no reply, the
young man made closer inspection, and was norri.

twisted skens Of thread which were attached to the
curtain fixtures above. He immediately gave the
