SCRANTON, PA, September Is AT the
mine known as Filer's Slope. operated by
Filler & Livy, a short distance from this
city, Felix Slavin and John DOugherty were
engaged taking down skip" or loose
piece OF coal, when huge boulder, known
I'm mining parlance as ga black sulphur
clod," weighing about three tons, de-
scendcd upon them from the roof, kill
ing both instantly, and crushing them
together into a shapeless mass. A miner
named Fnnerty, working in an adjoining
chamber, had been in few minutes before
the accident and warned Savin and
Dougheriy Of their danger, hut they re.
piled that the loose end was only ga little
she'll" and would not hurt anybody.
When Fnnerty heard the crash he knew
what had happened, and ran to where the
accident occurred. TO his horror he saw
the miner and his assistant crushed by the
clod," their feet sticking out from under
it and still moving. Their heads were
crushed together, and they were distigured
beyond recognition.
a peculiar feature brought to light by
this grim occurrence, and one that seems
almost incredible, is the fact that SlaYin. the
miner, had been totally blind from boy
hood. He was quite expert in the use Of
the drill, and when his assistant once placed
it accurately on the spot where the hole was
to be drilled for the blast, Slavin, without
deyiating a hairs breadth. made the hole at
the proper angle, and then superintendent
how it should be fired. He had been a
miner thirty years without the use OF bis

Williamsburg, a notice Of which we pub
lished last week. The Doctor had arrange
with the negro to bring some papers TO
Hampton, and had agreed to pay him three
dollars for bringing them, but had stipu-
lated that he should bring nothing else
but the papers-no passengers. The
next morning, when the negro called for
the papers, he bad two passengers in
his vehicle bound for Hampton. The
Doctor reminded him OF the previous
understanding, and declined to send the
papers by him, whereupon the negro cursed
bin. The Doctor then struck him with 4
dustiDg- brush, making a slight cut on the
side OF his head. The colored man drew n
large revolver TO shoot him, when the Doe
tor entered the post-office and procured a
revolver to defend himself. The postmaster
closed the door to separate the combatants.
The Doctor observing the negro looking
through the window, with revolver in hand.
in order to shoot him, shot at him through
the glass door. The glass changed the course
of the ball, and it did not strike the man,
and "that is all there is OF it,"

The first question to be considered is
whether the opinion of the court has been

the answer TO this question is practically the
answer to the queries proposed. the court will
at once address themselves to the real point
in issue That is, whether the Governor and
Council act judcialiy as they please. or min
isterially within the law, in determining who
''appear to be elected" and in issuing sum

they have a discretion which is final in issu-
ing summonses, and the rolls made up in ac-
cordancc with their decisions is binding on
everybody.
But if they are simply canvassers of re-
turns, and act mini>terially, then any act of
