FIVE MEN CRUSHED TO DEATH.
CauGht in an Elevator Cage which Was
Forced Up Against the fioof of IA Mine.

CauGht in an Elevator Cage which Was
Forced Up Against the i;oof of "A Mine.
PINE GROVE, Pa, July 19.--Five men
met instant death in terrible form in
one Of the mines at Williamstown, near
here, this evening. The miners were
being hoisted out of the collicry.
Several OF them had just entered the
wagon for their long rise. The engine
on the surface had started the cable
which was to lift their wheeled cage to
the top, and then death came to them in
a twinkling.
The pulley underneath the wagon
failed to work aud guide it to its proper
place in the shaft. Consequently, as the
cable away above began rapidly to haul
them upward their cage was drawn with
tremendous and crushing force agaiast
the roof rock Of the mine.
Five men in the wagon were killed
before they even realized their danger.
Their names are: John Raudenbush,
John L. Llewellyn, NJ. A. Table, William
Clark, Charles Woodman.
The victims were all residents OF
Williamstown, and their bodies were
mangled beyond recognition. There
were most distressing scenes at the
mouth of the mine shaft until the scores
of anxious men and women there could
learn just who and how many were
killed

GREATEST MAP or am.

1t Is to Adorn One of the Walls of the
Waiting Room at Broad street Station.
Philadelphia Record.
One of the most attractive features of
the old Broad Street Station was the big
map of the country painted on the wall
of the general waiting room, where it
was always viewed with much interest
Il disappeared in the general tearing
out of the old quarters, but will have a
worthy successor in a new map which
the Pennsylvania railroad officials con-
template having painted in the new sta
tion.
This will be a monster, 115 feet long
and 10 feet wide, and will be the biggest
thing of its kind in the world. 1t is to
be painted on canvas, and will adorn
the Filbert street side of the great
waiting room. Not only will it show
the Pennsylvania system and its con-
nections, but all, the rest of the country
as well, from the Atlantic to the Pacific
and from the Gulf of Mexico to Canada.
