a vast range, and are fifteen miles from
the foot of the Rocky mountains. One

Fortified and agatized wood is beneath

Two terrible coaImine accidents occurr-
ed last month in England.
One on the 18th ulto. at Wigan near
Pemberton in Lancashire, when, by an
explosion of fire, damp, and the fire W ich
ensued, 81 lives were lost. Only 6 were
rescued alive, although strenuous efforts
Were made,
The second accident occu red on tbs
23nd alto, at Blantyre, near Glasgow,
when by au explosion Of gas, 70 less than
900 men and boys lost their lives. This
is one of the most awful catastrophes on
record of the kind, and is said to have been
caused by care(essness on the part Of those
at wOfk in the mine. The Home Secre-
tary has ordered q searching inquiry to
be made iuto tie matter.
1t is strange that men so exposed to
dlnger should not be more careful OF their
own lives and those of others, but il has
often been demonstrated that in this par
ticular calling, more esp 'cialIy does IA
m%iliarity breed contempt" 1t is to he de-
sired that soma e%tfectuaI method should
be found, to oblige the workmen to OH
serve certain precautionary rules, so that
a recurrence of casualties so terrible
may be rendered irnpo ssible.
