Again the press is called upon TO
record the crushing out OF another life in
the treacherous coal mines. The facts
OF the present case are as follows: John
Desmond, a miner engaged in the Top

two OF his sons in the bank. Suddenly
there was a crack, report, and the boys

and coal that fell from above.
Assistance was soon procured and the
remains taken out, but life was extinct.
His left leg was broken, ribs were mash.
ed and the left side OF his face was
crushed in a sickening manner.
Desmond was man IS years OF age
and a steady worker. His wife is still
living at their home, No. 332 Main
street, to which place the remains were
at once taken. He was the father OF
six boys and two girls, the Oldest being
son aged 81, in Indiana, and the
youngest a lad OF II, who was in the
