Holiday trade as we'll as at

most perplexing questions
just now is the selection of

for this purpose that the
Herkner Jewelry Co., wish
to call attention to their
enormous display of novel
ties. Christmas is near at
hand and an early inspec-
ton of the stock is solicited.

THE sHAMoK1N DISASTER
FIVE MINERS DEAD AND SIX
SERIO USLY INJURED.
A Rascuing Party was Formed I'm
mediatel y After the Explosion,
and the Work Of Remov-
Ing the Debris Con-
tinueS.
Death in a Mine.

Shamokin, Pa, Oct. 15-Five dead
and six injured, three of whom stand
chances of recovery, is the result of yes
! terday's explosion ut Sterling colliery, a
disaster which has not had its equal in
this section for some years. AS to the
| cause of the explosion, mine officials ad-
vance several theories, but the most
plausible one, as given by Supt Veith,
of the Philadelphia and Reading Coal
| and Iron company, is that Il large quail
tity of top rock and coal. looscned by a
shot. fell in an old breast in which was
| confined large volume of dangerous gas,
| causing it to sweep through the gangway
and become ignited from Il naked lamp
causing the dreadful explosion which sent
flying debris in all directions and brought
death and destruction, burning those who
were not already hurled into eternity.
Eye witnesses state there We're two OK
plosions. one following quickly after the
| ether. Patrick McDevitt, Joseph KctCh-
lie and Micael Wetchhock made miracu-
louS escapes and came out of the mine
with but Il few scratches, although they
had been ut work in the same breast
with the four unfortunates who were en-
tolnbed by the fall of rock and debris and
were taken out dead. The four men,
however, left the breast on the first ap-
pearance Of gas, and ran, as it were, to
meet their death.
When word reached John +. Welsh,
the foreman, who was or the surface at
til" pay car, he Immediately organized 4
| rcscuing party, and, although beaten back
several times by the deadly black
damp, they set to work removing the
loose stuff, working necessarily in relief
gangs to recover the deal and injured
and to reach the entombrd men.
pottsvillc, Pa. Oct. 14.--Thc number
of men killed and injured by the eX-
Reading companys Sterling Run colliery
ut Shamokin is now known to be eleven
OF these. five We're dead and the remain
ing six so badly burned and mutiatAd
that small hopes for their recovery are
entertained. A RESI- uing band was at
once organized, but owing to the unsafe
| coalition of that part of the mine in
which thu explosion occurred and the
presence of black damp. their progress
was necessarily slow. Many narrow es-
c:prS were made by the miners working
in parts of the mine near where the on
ploSion occurred. but al the men are now
out.
The correct list of the dead and injured
is as follows: Dead. Thomas O'Gara,

The Yaqui Indians are credited
with g. novel innovation in the art Of
war. They soaked their blankets in
water, held them by the tops and
allowed them to swing clear at the
bottom. 1t is said that bullets failed
to pierce this novel shield, although
they would have done so had they
been held at the bottom. We do not
advise people to 60 into battle with
any great degree of confidence behind
this movable breastwork until it has
been tried by military board.
