Had 1t not been for q couple Of rashly given

How the Cingalese Tramping Jeweler Goes

WAS sitting one afternoon on the beautiful
wide verands Of the Gale Face Hotel, Co
Jumbo, in Ceylon. 1t was one Of those perfect
days in which to dream with your ewes wide
open. 1 was lazily watching the miniature
squirrels to run up and down the cocoanut
palms, while an audacious blackbird coolly
perched on the arm Of my capacious chair and
with head cooked to one side regarded me with
more or less disapproval.
The roar of the breakers pounding upon the
beach made pleasant music. and in the trans
lucent emerald brine some laughing natives
were splashing merrily. light hand touched
my shoulder. and a barefooted Cingalese
stood before me. Would you like TO buy
some stones?" he asked. in his pleasant voice
These peddlers of gems are very numerous in
Ceylon and threaten to become a nuisance TO
the traveller. They are not allowed to enter the
hotels, and once saw one OF them actually
beaten out of the Oriental in Columbo Hence
it was that before addressing me my Cingalese
friend glanced furtively up aud down the long
veranda to see that he was unobserved by the
minions Of the hotel.
He took from beneath his blouse a bundle Of
white cloth. which he opened, displaying about
pint OF rubies, carbuncles, moonstones and
cats-eyes. As / had nothing to do / looked
through them. after explaining to the sable
merchant that had no intention OF buying.
The collection must have been worth many
Thousands Of dollars, judging by individual
specimens, but apart from his merchandise the
bare-footed vender. costume and all might
have been assessed at about five shillirgs.

Terrific Explosion Of Gas in Nanticoke
COlliery.


Terrific Explosion of Gas in q Nanticoke
COlliery.
At late hour last evening while eight men
were at work at Nanticoke No. 6 gangway Of
No. 9 slope Of the Susquehanna Coal Company
at Wilkesbarre, about three-quarters of a mile
from the bottom Of the shaft, terrific explo-
sion Of gas took place, which hurled the VIC
Tins of their feet and scattered them in all
directions, killing four men and a boy instantly
and seriously but not fatally injuring three
more.
The dead are: Abram Walker miner, married,
leaves five children; Frank Beanick, fourteen
years Of age, door boy, died after reaching
home; John Smith, miner, married. leaves
three children; VIM. Shortz, laborer, burned to
q crisp; Pole. whose name could not be
learned. nor could his body be recognized
The injured are John G went, horribly burned
about the head and arms, in a serious condi-
ton; two Poles, names unknown, both badly
burned on hands and face.
The news OF the explosion spread over the
town like wildfire and in a short time thou
sands Of miners, their wives and children and
other persons focked to the mouth of the fatal
shaft. Everything was done by many OF them
and the company hands to relieve the sufferers
in sending them to their homes and to the hos
pital.
The damage to the slope will be considerable.
The timber work was blown down and scattered
about in many places and the gas set fire to the
coal. At midnight the rescuing party who
brought the unfortunates to the surface re-
ported that they had subdued the flames. Dill
gent search was made and no one was left in
the mine to suffer.
