A MINE ACCIDENT.

PlTTsToN, Pa, March 12.-AnOther
mine accident occurred here this after
noon, about 4 O'Clock, in which two
incl met instant death and a third was
fatally injured. The Port Blanchard
shaft. operated by the Pennsylvania
Coal Company, was the scene, and the
victims were George Walker, aged SO
years, married; Dennis Mclaughlin,
aged 80 years, unmarried, and Charles
Walker, son of George.
The men were engaged in moving a
pillar when a fall of rock occurred and
they were crushed beyond recognition
by the vast mass Of earth which came
tumbling down. Three hours were
consumed by the rescuing party in
digging away the debris. When re-
moved, Charles walker, the one yet
alive, was too badly injured to give any
detailed explanation.

LEGITIME's MEN CAPTURE GRAND
SALINE AND MASSACRE THEIR
PRISONERS.
NEW YORK, March 10.-The steamer
C0ban, which arrived here to-day.
brought news of a bloody battle be-
tween the forces Of Legitime and Hip.
polyte and a massacre by the victors.
The account was in La Patrie, a Hip
polyte organ, published February 23d
at GOnalves, which Captain Frazer, of
the Coban, brought with him.
The battle was at Grand Saline, and
the account says that Legitime's men
were so elated by their capture of the
place that they Immediately pillaged
the town. One drunken soldier shot
one Of the prisoners for some tri1iDg
matter, and this was the signal for a
general break on the part of the SOL
dIers. They rushed at the prisoners,
shooting and stabbing them right and
left. The prisoners begged hard and
~piteously for mercy, but their cries
were laughed at, and the killing went
on, quarter being allowed to none.
Captain Frazer says he heard the same
story from other quarters. and has no
reason to doubt il.

Scientists maintain, and generally
succeed in proving, that the germs of
an epidemic exist In the air which
passes into human lungs. Will science
ever be able to discover the locality
and the nature of the germs that make
possible such epidemics as crimes.
railroad wrecks, fires and the liker 1t
is beyond peradventure that the death
dealing railroad wreck assumes an
epidemic form, and that the advent OF
one such is almost certain to be fol-
lowed by another even though the
breadth OF an ocean lies between
the spots where derailment
spreads death. So, too, is it
with great fires that for fuel have
human bodies, and with subterranean
explosions that convert coal mines into
hecatombs. They appear In epidemic
form oftener than as isolated cases.
There would seem to be subtle influen-
ces at work in a realm as yet unfath-
omed by science, and in this place Of
unknown influences shall human
skill and science ever en.erp Who

Causes of Sudden Death.

One source OF sudden deaths is acci-
dent, but many events which might
have been fOreseen and guarded
against. Americans, particularly. are
apt to take great risks; for example, In
their eating, their clothing, their
building, in crossing railways. No
staging need ever fall. and 1t would
not If proper al were taken In the
choice of material and in construction,
Think of the frIghtful list OF deaths
resulting from the use Of oil poured
upon a lighted IRE to cause 1t to klndle
more quicklyl
With many other causes Of sudden
death, our own personal ills seem at
first sight to have almost nothing t., DO.
There may be- a fatal break ! Il the
physical machinery al a point where
weakness has not been suspected. The
heart, perhaps, becomes unnaturally
enlarged, or its tough, muscular noer
turns to fat, and suddenly there Is a
mortal rupture. Or the enfeebled heart
fails to send blood to the brain, and
the man drops dead in the street, or at
his business, or, more fortunately per-
hapS, in the midst of his family.
In other cases there may be o degen-
e~neratlon of the cerebral artery, and
high living, or a glass OF wine, or an
excitement of passion, may arouse the
heart to send the blood to the brain
with a force too great for the weak
ened arterial walls to withstand. these
walls give way at one or more points,
the outpoured blood presses against the
nerve centers, and thus is cut OH the
necessary supply of nerve force to vitai
organs. The man falls unconscious,
and within a few days dies.
We have not space to speak OF other
causes somewhat similar. but in most
of them the weakness OF the link NJ
which the chain breaks is due to over
exertion, to too continuous brain work,
to excuses in eating and drinking, to
passion, to worry. The weak spot pc
ing ascertalned. the fatal result may
be prevented for years, perhaps inde-
tinitely by a carefully regulated LIE.
