"BIack Diamonds" Fast Time.

The BLACK Diamond Express" on the
Lehigh Valley Railroad recently made
a run between Wilkesbarre and Geneva,
N. Y, that came near being record
breaker. The train left Wilkesbarre at
4.53 p. M, twenty-six minutes late, and
arrived at Sayre, at 6.a3 p. M, ten min
utes late, running distance OF 05 miles
In 10s minutes, including a stop at La
ceyville for water. Leaving Sayre at
6.37 p. M, ten minutes late, the train
reached Geneva at 7.55 p. M, on time,
making the run of T3I miles in 7s min
utes.
The record this train is making for
fast time and good service is attracting
the attention of the travelling public,
and the patronage of the train is daily
increasing.

Vaccination Law Sustained,

w. F. Sprague, of Bradford county
brought suit against the school directors
of Otto township to compel the board to
admit his children to the schools of that
district after the children had been eX-
PEELED from school for noncompliance
with the compulsory vaccination law.
Sprague's petition to court alleged that
the act was unconstitutional in that its
title was not properly constructed to
cover the provisions of the bill and also
violated the constitution, and further
that the vaccination act does not include
nor relate to townships.
Judge Morrison has rendered his de-
cision, which denies the validity of the
claims made by the plaintiff in the case
and upholds the law in its constitutions al
and other features.

A Score of MinersssRescued.

A terrific explosion of gas occurred on
Monday afternoon in Baltimore Shaft
No. 2, of the Delaware and Hudson Com
pany, at Wilkesbarre. Twenty-Five
miners were imprisoned, but at u late
hour all had been rescued alive. I'm
mediately after the disaster became
known, rescue gangs descended the
shaft, but it was some time before the
ventilation had been so managed that
they could work in safety. The party
which entered the mine succeeded in
pushing their way to the plane where
the imprisoned men had been working
and there they stumbled over the bodies
of number Of unconscious men. As
quick as the work could be accomplish
ed, they were brought to the surface,
where corps Of doctors were in wait
ing.
Wrapped in blankets some of the vic
tins were sent to their homes and some
to hospitals. The physicians have hope
That all may recover. Had they been
in the mine five minutes longer all
would have probably died of suffocatior.
John Healy, one Of the rescuers, who
was first to discover the bodies on the
plane, say the men were huddled closely
together. They had apparently aban-
doned all hope of rescue and were re-
solved to die together. The suppoSition
is that the men, when they realized their
danger, made their way to the highest
point on the plane. The smoke found
its way to them, however, and they
were all but suffocated when found.
The theory OF the explosion is that
there was fall of rock on the slope
where the dynamite was stored, that
the dynamite exploded and set fire to
the gas.
