AN AWFUL MINE DISASTER.
TERRIBLE EXPLOSION IN A COL

Fears Entertained That Over Two
Hundred People Have Lost
Their Lives.

Special TO the RECoRD-UNIoN.
BRUSSELS, March 1I.--An accident oc-
CURED to-day in the Anderluis colliery,
near Charleroi, which it is feared will re-
suit in great loss of life. Three hundred
miners were employed in the coal pit,
when there was a terrific explosion of
fire-damp. The fate of the imprisoned
workmen is unknown. Efforts are being
made to rescue any who may have sur
vived the explosion. Only three of these
thus far have reached the mouth of the
pit in safety.
The men, if any, who survived the
shock of the explosion are apt to meet
their death from choke-damp, as with the
destruction of the ventilator it is impos-
sible to rid the mine of gases.
A large force of volunteers is at work
clearing the mouth of the mine of debris
in order to reach the imprisoned miners.
a large number of the miners are mar
ried, and their families and friends at the
mouth Of the pit are frantic with grief
Later particulars regarding the ex-
plosion show that it occurred in a gallery
400 feet below the surface, where go men
were working. OF this number forty es-
capped by means of second shaft and
sixteen others were rescued in a fatally
injured condition. 1t is feared of the men
in the mine 200 have been killed.
The shock from the explosion resem-
bled an earthquake. Rescuers soon de-
scended, and after a long interval of
weary suspense brought 10 the surface
thirty or forty unfortunates, all either
dead or seriously injured. A great sheet
Of flame must have shot through the
mine, as the miners eyelashes and hair
were all singed off. The party again de-
scended, and has not been heard from
since.
LATER.-The crowds increased as the
day wore on. The rescuers began to
come to the surface a few at a time, bear
ing one or two mangled forms. Scenes
usually incident at such disasters were
repeated, with, if possible, more than
usual intensity. The work Of the rescu-
ers is greatly retarded by the noxious
gases still remaining in the mine. There
is hardly shadow of hope that any Of
the men who were in the mine at the time
of the explosion are now alive

other square upon it, leaving one end
open. Turn, and slip the pillow in, pull
ing out the ruffie all around. Gather up
double strip of the cheese-cloth this
should be two yards long and one and
one-half inches wide when doubledl
into full rosette, and sew the middle of
the pillow. Put q similar rosette on the
opposite side, drawing the pillow well
together in the center with strong thread.
These rosettes have much the appearance
of the great double hollyhocks, and the
full, white ruffie around the edge con-
trasts we'll with the dark blue of the
denim.
The pillow OF which l speak rests in a
large armchair near lamp with yell
low paper shade, and it may be that the
yellow serves to bring out and intensity
the blue, and that the cover owes its
beauty, somewhat at least, to its sur
roundings.
Twilled turkey red may be made up in
similar manner, having ruff1e and ro-
settes of the same material. Madagascar
grass-cloth makes delightful pillows for
summer use, and this comes in strips,
which are generally sold for curtains, but
q pair which may cost 81 90 will make
several covers.
Japanese Grape cloth in blue and white
is always effective, and the beautiful Bull
garian embroideries may be joined and
used for the same purpose.
A new way to cover pillow is to join
four straight breadths of silk together
and gather the ends, sewing them to the
center of the pillow on each side. Place
large rosettes over the raw edges, and lay
any extra fullnses around the outside in
plaits, catching them down at intervals.
This gives full effect, and the seams run
toward the center instead of around the
outside edge, as in the plain ordinary
covers.
White linen, embroidered with an all
over design done in white silk, makes a
lovely cushion. A full ruffie of coarse,
white lace should trim it all around, and
this will be found to be easily laundered,
which is always consideration (or
