KILLED IN A MINE.


VIENNA, Sept. IA terrible and
disastrous explosion occurred at Bory slava
in Galieia- The accident happened in a
drift on of the shafts Of one Of the deep
mines The explosion was caused By FIRE
damp, ignited from open lanterns which
are furnished the miners to WORK with.
The level was crowded with workmen
there being about 500 in 1t in all. A small
explosion occurred at the end OF the drift
followed in instant later by another
and a most terrific explosion, aud the tur-
mel Immediately commenced to cave in.
Dirt and rocks were blown iu all direc-
tions, and many were injured By the flying
debris. A cave in occurred near the end
Of the drift, and eighty miners were Gu
tombed- a relief gang was Immediately
organized and sent down into the drift
The sight they saw was most repulsiye
aud sickeuing. Men injured and dying
were to be seen on all sides, groAning in
their agony, and all efforts were made to
afford them immediate relief. When the
work had been completed, the men com
menced to work with pick and shovel to
remove the debris and rescue the men who
were imprisoned in the drift That con
sumed an hours time, and when the dirt
was finally cleared cloud of smoke that
had been confined in the cave rolled out
and some of the workmen were compelled
to drop their picks and shoyels and leave
the drift. The lamps were put out so in
tense was the smoke.
When it had finally cleared the lanterns
were lighted again and a more terrible
sight met their eyes. The eighty men who
were entombed were all with one eXcep
ton, lead, surOcated by the smoke and
the one who yet lived only fingered an in
slant or so and then expired.
The dead bodies were carried out Of the
mine TO the surface and turned over to
their friends or relatives. The scene Mt
the mouth OF the mine was most heart
rending.
The mines are poorly ventilated and but
few safety lamps are used, the corporation
owning the property preferring not TO go
TO that expense.

Clam Got the Widow.

Lewis Clam lives in Burnside town
ship, La Peer county. Mich So does Al
bert Butler. Likewise pretty young
widow Both Butler and Clam fell in love
with the widow and she kept them both
on the string.
Clam called on her Tuesday night and
told her he loved her and wanted her to
change her name. She consented and the
day was named
Clam had no sooner left the house than
Butler, who had been waiting outside,
called and earnestly advised her not to be
Clam. She said she would not if he
would make haste and get a marriage IL
cense. Butler promised to use all haste,
but Clam found out Buffers intention, aud
as soon as the county clerks oftice was
opened Wednesday morning he got "a Ii
cense Less than an hour afterward But
Ter got his license and Clam heard of it.
Each knew the others intention and
each hired horse to beat the other to the
Widows house. Butler played in hard
luck, as he got horse that had the heayes
and while his horse was standing still in
the road and coughing as if his ears would
drop of Clam dashed by and arrived at
the house ten minutes ahead of Butler,
and by the time the tardy young man ar
rived at the Justices house to argue his
case the widow had become Mrs Clam.

MOBILE, Ala, Sept, 2.-The Louis
vile & Nashville cannon ball train last
night was held up at Pensacola Junction
by robbers, who entered the express car
and compelled the messenger to give IN
the contents of the safe. 1t is not known
at this time the extent of the loss. Having
secured the valuables, the robbers jumped
of and took to the woods.
Engineer Bob Sizer says he was pulling
out and just as his train got under way he
turned around and saw the men standing
near him. Before he could ask quest ton
or look twice, two big revolvers were in
his face. He was then told to run his
train up to the Columbia River bridge,
some miles distant, and stop on the bridge
There was nothing left for him TO do but
to obey, and he did so. The engineer was
told to get off his engine, and then the
robbers directed Sizer to 90 to the express
car and force an entrance, the robber
putting heavy mallet in his hand Sizer
did so and burst open the car door
The express messenger, Archie Johnson
was standing in his car with his pistol in
his hand, but seeing Sizer, he lowered it.
The next minute he was covered and told
TO lay down his gun, and he obeyed. Then
the robper standing in the car door com
PEELED the messenger to open the safe and
hand him all the money
While this operation was going on, the
fellow was standing in the door cody
looking at his victim and firing first to one
side of the train and then the other to
overawe passengers and the train crew.
When he got the money, the robber told
Sizer to follow him. The man showed the
way to the engine and made Sizer pull out,
and with parting shot and wild yell
dashed off in the bushes and was lost to
sight posse has left Flomaton and an
other has left Mobile in pursuit of the rob

In the Grip of a Bear.

A dispatch to the Denver Republican
from Durango narrates the adventure Of
Mr. Best of that place with big silver tip
bear, last week. While out in the brush
hunting for horses he was suddenly met
by the bear, which rose on her hind feet
and made for him. He managed to catch
her by the feet and, being possessed on
ordinary occasions of enormous strength,
which now in this excitement became
superhuman, he held her feet in such a
manner that she was unable, although
trying her best, to strike or tear him with
her claws.
She proceeded, however, to chew his
head and was doing terrible work when
fortunately she was called away by the
growls of her cubs which were near by.
Mr.. Best, half unconscious, and blinded
by the blood that was flowing from the
many wounds that had been inflicted on
his face and head, was unable TO rise, but
turned over on his face and tried TO think
what TO do. When the old bear returned,
as she did in few minutes, Mr.. Best
feigned death and lay perfectly still. Brutn
came up and waited for him to jump or
move, and seeing that he did not she bit
him on the arm, and then finding he did
not move she nosed him little, aud after
a few farewell bites grunted to her cubs
and plunged into the brush.
MIR. Best succeeded in dragging himself
to a tie ranch tive miles distant, and medi-
cal assistance was summoned. The phys
ician found the man III a critical condition
and his recovery is still uncertain.

WooDFIELD, o., Aug. 30.-fester-
day was the last dag OF the fair here and
more than 10000 people assembled to see
the final races and balloon ascension by
Professor Carter, the web known aero
naut The balloon was simple, hot-air
affair, and was kept in its position over
the furnace by ropes held by the bystaud-
ers. When it had been inflated and all
was ready Carter gave the word 10 let go.
The balloon shot upward and the thous-
ands of spectators were horrifed TO see
dangling at the end of small line, Milton
Rodin, one OF the most prominent young
men of the county, and an officer Of the
fair association. Hundreds OF persons
shouted to him TO drop, but Rodin was
either entangied or had lost his head, and
he clutched frantieally at the rope, at
tempting to climb up the slender line into
the basket.
A number of women in the dense crowd
tainted, and and all the spectators grew
sick with horror as the balloon sailed up
ward and began moving southwark. Car
ter could be seen making desperate efforts
to draw Rodin up the rope on which he
swung to and fro. For fully ten minutes
their efforts continued and then, at
height of over 1000 feet, the balloon took
a sudden lurch, Robins hold was Ioosened
and his body shot downward.
1t was found half mile away. The
clothing was torn of, all his bones broken
and the body crushed out of ali human
sembiance,
Robins brothers and sisters were in the
crowd and saw his terrible fall

WHILE almost everything else on
earth seems to have changed and i'm
proved during the last twenty years,
one has only to journey few miles by
an ordinary passenger coach to discov-
err that the demeanor of the average
traveller is just the same as when his
father took his first ride. Every man
or woman wants to occupy a whole
seat Every man or woman wants the
window up. Every man puts his head
out when the whistle blows for high
way crossing. II the train stops for
over two minutes everybody wonders
what Is the matter, and II the speed is
twenty miles an hour the man with the
watch is heard calling out that the last
mile was made in exactly minute.
Everybody carries his umbrella and
his luncheon, as in days o: yore, and
the train boy sells just as many pea
nuts as he did during the reckless and
extravagaut days Of war.
