4 VIRGINIA HORROR.
Over One Hundred Miners Meet Death by
an Explosion i'm "A Coal Mine.

PETERSBURG, VA. March 14.-IEtel-
ligence is just received of a terrible N
plosion in the coal mines of the Southwest
Virginia Improvement Company al POca-
hontaS, Tazewell county. this State. 1t oc-
cured ar l o'clock yesterday morning, and
over one hundred men are known TO nave
been killed. These mines are owned by
a joint stock company composed mostly
of Northern capitalists. The work of deStruc-
ton at the coal mines was horrible and coin
plete. There were one hundred and fifty
men ia the mine al the time of the eXplO-
sion. not oneo of whom Is believed to have
escaped. Those not killed outright by the
terrible force of the explosion, most likely
perished from after-lanp. \ number of
bodies discovered are horribly mangled.
some of them with their heads tom from
the trunks. and others with the limbs all
gone, presenting an appalling spectacle.
The work of destruction was not confined
entirely To the interior of the mines. but
houses W or three hundred feet removed
from the mines Were overturned. and in
several instances entirely demolished.
LATEST DETAILS.
A midnight telegram from POcahOntas is
a. follows: The night hands went into the
mines at the usual hour, $50 strong. A lit
tie after midnight the town was startled
from its sleep by a report that sounded like
the rIImbling OF an earthquake followed by
q clap Of thunder. Soon a messenger came
from the mines. three-fouTths Of a mile
away. with information To the Superin-
tendent that there had been a terri
bic explosion there. The superintendent
and Others went 10 the mines at
once. The scene was Undesirable. Words
could not convey the faintest idea of the des-
t~ruction wrought in a few short seconds.
Signs of it were plainly visible on every
hand. The entrance To the main shaft was
entirely torn out and scattered pell neil for
hundreds of feet. and the little train track
torn and twisted. and shapeless timber and
ties We're hurled in confusion all around.
Cars were taken up bodily, torn in vain and
their iron wheels broken and shivered.
They We're thrown three and
four hundred feet away. The
ridge and tilnhe-s on the ridge opposite this
drift were a blackened picture to the sum-
init, six hundred feet away. 4 searching
PARTY found a pair of shoes that had been
blown to the summit of the ridge, and a
mule was found al the same place, twisted
into an Undesirable shape. and the second
entrance 10 the mime presented a similar ap-
pearance to the first

DESTRUCTIVE FIRE.
East st. Louis Has . Blaze and Loses La
Million.

Million.
ST. LOUIS, March 12.-Probably the most
destructive fire that ever occurred in East
St. Louis took place last night. The flames
first caught in a small barber shop in a row
Of old frame buildings on the river front, sit
mated between the freight yards of the Chi
cago & Alton on the north and the Ohio &
Mississippi on the south. There being no
fire department in the place, surrounding
property was entirely at the mercy OF the
flames, which spread with lightning rapidity
and in a few minutes had envelOped not
only the whole row of frames but spread to
the transfer stables i'm the rear n then to Adj
vance Elevator "a" still further to the east,
and the entire property was destroyed. The
elevator had a capacity of 500, 600 bushels
and said to nave contained between 200, 600
and 500. 900 bushels of corn, about $4,000
bushels of oats and about 10000 bushels OF
wheat. Leading west from this elevator
was a long conveyer, connecting with EIe-
vator B. on the river bank, belonging to
the same company. Part of the cOnveyor
was burned, but the remainder was torn
away. The elevator itself, which Is a large
new building of 10000 bushels capacity,
was saved. Extending nOrthward the fire
spread to the freight Office of the Chicago &
Alton road, and TO the ears in the extensive
yard of that company. The freight Office,
which was formerly the passenger depot,
was totally destroyed, and a large number
of empty and laden ears We're burned. One
train of six burning cars was pulled out OF
the yards to Cone station, near the National
Stock Yards, where the flames were COM
municated to a long line of Others on the
| siding. and all of them. said to number
Seyenty-five or eighty, were destroyed A
number of ears in the Ohio Il Mississippi
yards on the South, and still Others OF the
track near elevator \ and in the Chicago &
Alton yards We're also burned. 1t Is eStl-
mated that fully 40 ears were burned, per
haps one-third TO half of which We're laden
with grain and merchandise. Two old re-
| pair shops of little value, and an Xle shop
III the rear of elevator \ were also burned.
The losses cannO be accurately stated to-
| night. Estimates at this writing are: Ele-
vatOr building, $50, 900 to $500, 900; grain,
$500. 600: cars and freight, SIS, 600: damage
To freight yards. railroad and buildings, S4O,-
900 to S5O.0 900: a row of frame buildings,
repair shops. stables. etc, $4,000. or per-
haps 4 total of half a million. One fire ell
gine and two hose reels were sent over from
this city. but they did not reach there in
time to do much service, and the fire may be
almost said to have burned itself out. In
slIralce not ascertained.

The Ignorant Juror.
pv Orleans Times Democrat.


The supreme court Of Tennessee
has recently rendered decision on,
the subject Of jurors that will be vel
coined by all, as it IS certainly IN ac-
cord with the spirit Of the law and
with the public sentiment and the
practical good sense Of the age.
Heretofore, the law has placed .
premium on ignorant jurors. The
man who reads newspapers or books,
VINO mixed with the world, and, CON
sequently, knew the current news of
the day. was regarded as an improper
Juror, and one that could not serve;
while the ideal juryman was deemed
to BE- the man who was illlterate and
uneducated, could not read or write,
and knew nothing of the crime, or
indeed, of anything else.
The issue in this case, presented
in Tennessee, was as follows: A Ju
ror upon trial Tor murder declared
that he had read full account Of the
crime in the papers, and had formed
an opinion regarding it, but believed
that this would yield TO evidence.
This juror, the supreme court dc
cided, was a good one.
This decision is very similar to one
recently rendered by the supreme
court Of Indiana, which declared that
reading an account Of crime Ia a
newspaper was no good reason why
Juror should be unfit TO serve in
that case. This is manifcstly the
drift Of Judicial decision of late, and
numerous other courts have held that
knowledge of the details Of crime
is not Incompatible with jury service.
and the principle is now being re-
cognizcd in our own courts.
The ignorant juror. the man who
cannot read and post himself on the
events Of the day, should be exclud-
ed from service instead OF encour-
aged, as he has been. Intelligence
rules in everything except the Jury
box, where, hitherto. premium has
been placed upon illiteracy.
We hope to see all the courts fol
low in the footsteps OF the Tennessee
tribunal. Ityill bo Ia the interest
of good verdlcts and will do much to
prevent the escape and secure the
punishment Of criminals.
