A MENT OF PERIL,

Thrilling adventure tn q Scranton Coql
Mine.
New York Herald
If it were possible to turn gray of terror,
the hair of Miss Floyd Jones, of New York,
should be as white as snow, in consequence
of an awful adventure which she passed
through at the Briggs colliery of tho Lacka-
wanna Coal and Iron company, in this
city. She is visiting the family of w. w.
Scranton, general manager of the Iron COM
pany, and expressed a desire to visit the
mine for the purpose of witnessing the in
teresting and portions process of mining and
preparing anthracite for use. Accordingly
Mr.. Scranton, acting as her escort, took
| along Mine Superintendent Reese G. Brooks
as an extra precaution against venturing
into danger. After inspecting the
! mine and seeing the men at work
the trio, guided by their Pickering lamps, re-
| turned along the subterranean halls to the
foot of the shaft, for the purpose of making
the ascension. Superintendent Brooks sig
kelly, and told him the party wanted TO be
which rises one hundred and fifty feet from
time. The object of ascending to the tower
| was to make all examination of tho screen
rooms, rollers and other departments where
the work of breaking and cleaning coal was
going on. The engineer answered down
through the tube Gail right" and the trio,
taking their places on the platform of the
carriage, were hoisted swiftly up out of the
mine into the shaft of the tower.
1lnpp the carrio "a arnPOac chino tho ohoo
wheel at the top, Engineer Roskelly lost con.
troll of his engine, and the party was hurled
against the heavy timbers of the roof, snap
ping the wire hosting rope asunder with the
visitors over an abyss $50 feet deep. 1t was
a moment of awful fear. They expected to
be dashed to the bottom. They felt the car
riage slip sharply down a few inches then
came sudden jolt, halt, and they were
standing still. The safety catches, which ere
generally more ornamental than useful,
sprang to their places and held the carriage
there. Even then the situation was painfully
perilous. The slightest movement might
cause the catches to slip again,
and everybody seemed afraid to breathe.
The position in which the halt was made
was not within easy access of any landing,
and the party was forced to remain there
until the workmen came with ladders to
their relief. This took but a very few min
utes, yet it seemed an eternity, and it was
with feelings of deep and heartfelt thankful
ness that they touched a firm landing once
more. The only bodily injuries inflicted by
the shock were slight cut which Miss
Jones sustained on the side of the head
when the rope broke, letting bolt descend
from the top of the carriage where it was
attached, and the bruising of her shoulder
by contact with the post. They are in no
way serious.
