RESCUERS DRIVEN BACK.
Another Cave-in at the Pittston Mine
Near Wilkesbarre.


Wilkesbarre, Pa, July 1-Another
cave-in took place in the Twin shaft at
Pittston shortly after 3 o'clock this
morning. The rescuerS were in spot
where the original fall took place when
the crash came. The cave is said to be
an immense one, composed mostly of
rock. The rescuers have been driven
back nearly 200 feet and the outlook this
morning towards reaching the men is
very discouraging. The roof continues
to show signs of cracking and more falls
are looked for during the day.
Supt. Law says that the report of a
second cavern was greatly exaggerated.
From other sources it is learned that the
cavern was an extensive one and will
interfere with the work of rescue. Mine
Inspector Mcdonald who had been on
duty since Sunday morning, has had to
retire completely exhausted. His place
was taken by Mine Inspector Roderick.
The latter in an interview said:
Il have just returned from where the
rescuers are at work and | am satisfied
with the progress they are making. Just
at present heavy rock is being encoun-
tered and the men are not making as
good Roadway as yesterday"
do you think there is any possibility
of any of the men being alive?' was
asked.
There is a bare possibility, but that is
all. The low hole from the adjoining
mine has not yet been driven through
the 34-fOot partition separating the two
mines; but Il is expected that the work
will be completed some time this after
noon"

The Same Idea as in 1892.

There are other interests at stake be-
side those of Mr. McKinleys million
aire friends who have grown insolent-
ly rich over McKinley's outrageous
protection ideas Once Mr.. Mckinley s
extravaganza ideas were sat down upon

CHAPTER ".
RUN A GREAT DANGER
HOTSE OF SHAWS.


HOUSE OF SHAWS.
For a day that was begun so ILL., the
day passed fairly well. We had the por-
ridge cold again at noon, and hot por-
ridge at night; po1ridge and small beer
was my uncle's diet. He spoke but little,
and that in the same way as before,
shooting a question at me after a long
silence; and when | sought to lead him
in talk about my future, slipped out of it
again. In a room next door to the kitch-
en-, where he suffered me to go, [ found
a great number of books, both Latin
and English in which | took great pleas
ure all the afternoon. Indeed the time
passed so lightly in this good company
that | began to be almost reconciled to
my residence at Shaws; and nothing but
the sight Of my uncle and his eyes play
ing hide and seek with mine, revived the
force of my distrust
One thing [ discovered, which put me
in some doubt. There was an entry on
the fiy-leaf Of chapbook Zone of Pat
rick Walkers plainly written by my
fathers hand and thus conceived ITO
my brother Ebenezer on his fifth birth
day" Now, what puzzled me was
this: That as my father was of course
the younger brother, he must either have
made some strange error, or he must
have written before he was yet 5, an eX-
cellent, clear, manly hand of writing
lLIe1 " get CnlS out VI my Hedu, Out
though | took down many interesting au-
thors, old and new, history, poetry and
story book, this notion of my fathers
hand of writing stuck to me; and when
at length | went back into the kitchen,
and sat down once more to porridge and
small beer, the first thing | said to Uncle
Ebenezer was to ask him if my father
had not been very quick at his book.
Alexander? No him!' was the reply.
y was far quicker myself; | was q clever
chappie when l was young. Why, I
could read as soon as he couId.'
This puzzled NE yet more; and q
thought coming into my head, asked if
he and my father had been twins.
He jumped upon his stool, and the horn
spoon fell out of his hand upon the floor.
What CARS ye ask that?" he said, and
caught me by the breast of the jacket,
and looked this time straight into my
eyes; his own, which were little and

Grove1ing at Mark Hanna's Feet.

No more remarkable spectacle has
ever been witnessed in this country
than is presented in the prostration of
the Republican party-an organization
which was once and still claims to be
the champion of liberty-at the feet Of
a self-constituted autocrat who has
never been, in any sense, conspicuous
in the counsels of the party; who was
unknown year ago outside Of the mar

ders him puissant, and who has set out
on a purely business basis to acquire
a President Of the United States

every one votes against him whose

Cheering to Democrats.

There is nothing in the nomination of
Mckinley that should not cheer the
hearts of Democrats. 1t was the Nc
Kinley idea and the Mckinley platform
that defeated the Republican, party in
1892. 1t will be Mckinley that will lead
it to defeat in 1S96-Peoria Herald.

Labor Is Offended.

There is such a thing as a labor vote
in this country, and it cuts an import
ant figure in a Presidential election. 1t
is not vote to be offended openly and
deliberately, at any rate. Among the
persons who took prominent part in
the proceedings at st. Louis was Henry
G. Payne Of Wisconsin. He was re-
elected National Committeeman from
his State, in accordance with the
wishes of Mark Hanna, SO it was stat
ed in the newspaper dispatches at the
time. Now it is reported that Mr..
Hanna is very likely to give added evil
dence of his approval of Mr.. Payne by
appointing him a member Of the Ma
tional Executive Committee. Mr.
Payne is probably as Objectionable to
organized labor as any man in the
country. AS manager Of the Milwau-
kee Street Railway Company he fought
stubbornly to crush out organization
among his employees, refusing under all
circumstances to recognize the right of
those who worked for his company to
belong to a union. Comforting honor
and position on this man, who is a bit
ter enemy Of unionism, Mr.. Hanna will
find to be poor way of making votes
for his candidate among Workingmen.

: How Teller and Mckinley Differ.

There is a significant contrast be-
tween the action of Senator Teller
who has severed his relation with his
party because he could not agree With
it's position on the silver question, and
with that Of Mr.. Mckinley, who will
accept the nomination for the Presi-
dency on a platform which he sought
to philadelphia Record.

Chickens Coming Home to Roost.

1t is the irony Of fate. The Republi-
cans made Utah a State for the ex-
press purpose Of having it give them
two Senators, one Representative and
three electoral votes. Yet in the very

Utah ever participated as State one

No inspiration to Enthusiasm.

Enthusiasm for Mckinley is lacking
everywhere outside Ohio. The leaders,
from Plat to Lodge, fall into line, as
Republican doesn't relish the success
gained by the silent man Of Ohio. He
realizes that while old bosses" may
have been sent to the rear. Il new boss
has forged to the front, and that Re-
publican success next November means
Hanna rule, with all that it implies.
No wonder that thinking Republicans
are not inspired by their Presidential
icket.-Boston Globe

Will Not Grow Upon the People,

1t is our best judgment that Mckin-
ley will not grow upon the people in
the fierce light of the campaign His
election means another siege OF tariff
tinkering, and the people do not want
any more legislation on this subject for
some time.-Nashyille American

NINETY MINERS BURIED.
A Coal Shaft Near Pittston, Pa,
Caves In.
Only Three Survivors--Awful Scenes in
the Village.

Wilkesbarre, Pa, June 29.-Nincty
miners are buried in the Red Ash vein
of the Twin shaft at Pittston. Not one
is expected to come alive out of the
mines mouth, around which 1000 shrek
ing, weeping, praying men, women and
children are gathered.
The roof at the vein caved in at 8
o'clock yesterday morning while the men
were putting in timbers to prevent u col
lapse. At 8 o'clock last night not a
single body, living or dead, had been re-
covered. Supt. Lathrop of the I1ehigh
Valley Coal company, an authority on
mine disasters, says the bodies cannot be
recovered inside of ten days.
Many of the buried miners were Poles
and Huns. Their families speak no
English, and their names cannot be as
certained. Of the English-speaking min
ers, the following are known to be buried
