THE ALLEGORY HORROR.

Inquest ON the Mine UnfOrtunates.
The inquest on the bodies of the nime
persons killed on last Saturday at Rob-

DR.. I. G. Thorp testified that he wenx

went up into the gallery for the purpose
OF seeing MIR. Alexander, who was op-
Grating one of the calcium lights, bnkv
was unable to get to him. There
was still standing room back OF
the seats. Downstairs, however,
there was hardly room to stand.
Mr.. Thorp was satisfied that the alarm
of fire came from child on the secon&
tier, on the east side about fifteen or
twenty feet from the stage. The women
and children Immediately joined in tho
cry. Many exclaimed that there wav'
no fire. AS soon as the cry Of fire was
raised the stairs on the east side wer0.
filed with children running down and
baIlooing "fire." He thought that NO
thief had given the alarm, because they
had opportunities enough to "work" tho
house as it was.
