Death I'm a Mine.

The mine of the West End Coal Com
pany, operated by Conygham, Teasdale
& Co., at MOnaqua, Pa, near Wilkes
barre, was the scene Of peculiar and
terrible accident Tuesday morning.
Just before the night shift went off duty
the fan broke. The boss knew this, so
did the men OH the day shift before they
entered the mine, but Notwithstanding
they went in the mine, taking Il great
risk. There were abou: thirty in all,
supplied with safety lamps. as it was
well known the gas would accumulate,
time work began. The workmen repair
ing the fan were the first who were
overcome with gas, and in about an
hour later the same fate was shared by
mahy others In the mine.
Before the men fairly realized their
danger more than twenty were uDcon-
scious. Those who could then escape
did so. Superintendent (and part own
err John Teasdale, with corps Of men
rs relief, went down the mine to as
sist the men in making their escape.
After being in the mine half m hour
Teasdale became unconscious, as did sew
eral of his men, who were with difficulty
rescued. Others went down, and in the
face Of immense difficulties and in spite
of being continually overcome by gas,
got out all but ten men. Altogether II
men lost their lives, most Of whom were
married and had families.

A Venerable Case.-At the fpe-
cial term of the Circuit Court, lately
held by Judge Fleming,a remarkable
and venerable case was disposed Of
''Tiernan vs.. Minghini." This cause
has been hanging in the courts for eighty
years, the original suit having been
brought by Gen. Elisha Boyd, 10 1905.
In 1918 Luke Herman, assignee Of Dem
mis- CahiH, Exr. Of James Quinn, recov-
cred two judgments against Joseph
Minghini. In 1919, Minghini obtained
an injunction restraining the collection
Of said judgments, pending litigation
between Minghini and one Luke Poto-
ney, wherein Minghini claimed set offs
to the debts duo. Herman, assignee.
Proceedings upon the judgments were
stopped until 1881, when the final decis-
ion of the Court OF Appeals in this lat
ter case became known.
Luke Herman, In the meantime, had
removed to Baltimore, and was no. ap-
prised of the action OF the court until
1897. 1t was then found that the papers
in the original suit had been lost, and
as the law was then, these papers could
not be replaced and the case recon-
structed de novo. In 1882, however, an
act was passed, permitting that to be
done. In 1886, the injunction was dis
solved, and in 1s49, srit in chancery
was commenced against the administra-
tor and heirs of Joseppi Minghini, to
enforce the payment Of the old judg-
ment. In 1859, decree was entered,
and the case carried to the District
Court, at Winchester, and to the Court
of Appeals Of Virginia. The case slept
from 1861 to 1870, when 1t was again re-
vived. The lawyers who were origin
ally engaged in the case were General
Elisha Boyd, Moses Il. Hunter, Robert
Y. Conrad, Obed Waite and Philip PEN
dleton, all of whom are dead. After the
death of General Boyd, the case came
into the hands Of his son-in-law, Hon.
c. j. Faulkner, who prosecuted it for
the plaintiffs, until his death. In latter
days the lawyers employed at different
times in this remarkable case were
Messrs. Andrew Hunter, w. L. Wilson,
George Baylor, j. N. Wisner, E. Boyd
Faulkner, w. II. ii. Flick and d. G..
Westonhaver. At the last term Of the
court, the cause was argued by d. c..
Westonhaver, Esq, for the plaintiff and
George Baylor, Esq, for the defendant
This case has been stubbornly contested
by able counsel, and every technically
known to the profession has been util-
lied, it having been twice In the Court
Of Appeals, but it is now settled in favor
of the plaintiff.-M atinsb,rg Statesman

A strange story comes to US from the
Point of Rocks. AS one of the fast trains
stopped at the station the engineer was
found stunned and lifeless, suffering
apparently from blow on the head. A
dead chicken was found lying in the
cab. The only explanation that could
be given was that the chicken attempted
to fly across the track while the train
was running at high speed and came
in collision with the drivers head. The
latest news was that the unfortunate
man had recovered consciousness but
that his recovery was by no means as
sured.-Hasersto1 Mall.

A Narrow E.caPe.-Considerable
excitement was created on German

dent which came near having n fatal
ending. Miss Lizzie Keller lives at DR..
C. Il. v. S. Buffers, and while she was
at the cistern the top caved in and pre-
cipitated her into the water. The els
tern was full, and the water reached up
TO her chin. No other person witnessed
the accident, and il was some minutes
before Miss Keller's cries brought relief
and she was extricated from her dam
gerons position in an exhausted condi-
ton. Had the water been few inches
deeper Miss Keller would probably
have been drowned. 7e1
