ing, while squad of miners were ex-
cayatiDg in the fire clay mine Of Parker,
Russell 4 Co., of this city, situated six
miles southwest of here on the Growers
road, the earth suddenly gave way, and
fifty tons of slate rock fell, with a
loud crashing noise. Edward Kendall,
superintendent of the mine, Thomas
Platt, Josh NJ. Judah and Paul Morrison
were working in the vein at the time.
Morrison succeeded in making his es-
cape. Judah was caught with his elbow
at his side, and his arm was thrust
clean through his body. Plat was cut
in two. Kendall was badly bruised.
The greatest excitement prevailed, and
a large crowd was collected as the dead
and mutilated bodiss Of the men we're
brought to the surface. The accident is
said to be the result of causes beyond
control.

The death of Charles Goodrich in
Brooklyn some months ago is pro-
nounced to be mystery no longer.
Another woman has been arrested for
his taking off, and she makes a confess
sion which seems somewhat consistent.
The police have looked for her in many
cities, but she had changed so sadly
that no one scarcely would know her.
She had been the petted mistress of
Goodrich, and when he threw her off
like an old toy she became desperate
and killed him rather than see his IA
vors bestowed on another. She gives all
the repulsive details, and seems wrecked
in body and mind. In fact there is rea-
son to believe she is insane In fit Of
jealousy and frenzied remorse she shot
her guilty paramour, and has since led
a wretched life. One explanation of
her fall and subsequent conduct is
found in the fact that she regularly at
tended Beechers church.

As to female reporters, there have
been a score during the past five years
Il speak only of those reportcd-but
il is doubtful II one now pursues the
profession. Women cannot push their
way into crowds, rush TO fires, climb
stairs, and trot up and down. Re.
porters must do this, aud much more,
They must take the weather as il
comes, exercise vigilance, patience,
prudence and muscle, and il IL q fact
settled by Dame Nature, long before
newspapers were known, that ladies
have very little Of either qualification
to spare. t rtHpoH
"ln a Southern city, two or three
years ago, an adventuresome young
lady accepted place as reporter on a
morning paper, and for the first
month succeeded very we'll, the staff
taking all the hard work. She was
at length sent TO report marriage
ceremony, and 10 write up descrip-
ton of the most prominent costumes
1t was just the field she wanted, as
she desired to get even with certain
'aristocrats' who bad turned up their
noses at the mention Of her calling
She wrote long article full of spice
and revengeful hits, and it passed into
the paper without being overhauled
Next morning, as the letters threaten
ing libel suits came pouring in, the
young lady was handed her balance,
and politely requested to give hel
place to man."

Coal Cutting Machine.

A correspondent of the Terre Haute
Express, writing from Brazil, Ind,
gives the following description of a
coal cutting machine in operation at
one of the mines in that place:
In the upper mine, Col. thinner
man showed us a machine, which he
is just now, after geat expenditure
OF time and money, getting into sue
cessful operation. The design OF this
machine is TO make the "beariDgs'
under the coal; that is, to cut off the
bottoms Of the coal prisms, so that
they may be wedged down. This
machine is great saving both of time
and coal. In making the "bearng"
with pick, from four TO twelve inches
of coal are cut away. A great part
of the coal coGl cut away is Clipped
up 30 small as to be worthless. The
machine cuts away less than two
inches, and this is all il wastes. The
cutting wheel is a very peculiar, and,
so far us ! can Judge, an entirely new
mechanical appliance. Mr.. Brown,
the ingenious inventor, deserves great
praise for the perseverance, and skill
which have, at last, given him success.
So many fruitless endeavors to con-
struct such machine have been.made
that inventors had given it up in des-
pair. The resistance TO the cutting
wheel is SO great that power applied
at the centre could accomplish but
little. Mr.. Brown has invented con-
trivance for applying the power 10
tho circumference, thus gaining great
ly 10 power, though, of course, losing
considerable by friction. Another
gain is in tbis The wheel forces al.
most its entire breadth into the coal
tnerv vsiSg no axle at the center to
check it. The machine begins at the
left corner of the room. When the
cutting wheel is buried in the coal
the machine turns TO the right aud
cuts the whole length of the wall
about a rod. Tho machine is then put
upon trucks and drawn into another
room, where the same process Of cut
ting is repeated, while the miners
wedge down the coal in the room just
left. We timed the machine, and
found that it cut three feet in seven
and three fourtbs minutes. The whee
was in the coal at the same time about
three feet four inches. Tho vein be-
ing four feet thick, nearly eubiC
yard and half was, in seven and
threc-fourths minutes, prepared to be
split down. 1t is considered days
work to mine three cubic yards o.
coal More than half the work is done
when tho "bearings" are made. The
machine, in half an hour, makes the
"bearings" under more coal than {
man can mine in day. Counting
the labor of making the "bcarings" a.
half, then the machine accomplishe'
as much in an hour as a good minel
can in day; or, as much in a day a
ten good miners. Ii takes two mer
to run the machine now, though on,
will probably be able TO do it when j
is perfected. The motive power il
designed to be compressed air; a
present it is steam.
