The Intelligencer doesn't approve of
the proposition of the Water Board to
build new workhouse out of the reve-
nues derived from the collection of de-
linquent water rents. Of course not.
Such thing must not be entertained
for a moment, for the present Water
Board is not of the Intelligencer cult,
and 1T would be far better to issue some
bonds or increase taxation and con-
struct an elaborate building upon pur-
chased ground, and have the taxpayers
make good" and put up through a
long series of years. The Intelligencer
is notioeably unhappy when anything
good comes along.

NO Drawer MEN EVER LIVED.

No drawer men ever lived than those
volunteers who. thoroughly conscious
that they were facing almost certain
death, followed Superintendent Will
liam McCune into the gas poisoned
depths of the Port Royal mines of the
Pittsburg Coal Company, at Port Roy
al, Pa, Tuesday, in the hope of rescu-
ing at least the bodies of the victims
of an explosion. OF the twelve who
responded to the call of the Superin-
tendent, twelve died within few min
utes after their descent, their leader
being included in the number, while a
second rescuing party only escaped
back to the surface by miracle, badly
burned and almost sightless from the
effects of another explosion and with
lungs inflamed and sore from inhala-
tions Of the hafter-damp."
No seyerer test of heroism was ever
enacted upon battle field or in ship
wreck or other disaster than was met
by these miners. When the Superin-
tendent suggested rescue the men were
OF the opinion that the effort was use
less; but he called for volunteers, and
twenty men responded. Probably not
a man of them but realized that he
was going to his death yet they went
as cheerfully as to some gala occasion
OF the total Of twenty-one, but eight
lived to reach the mouth of the shaft.
And yet, not daunted by the awful
fate of their comrades, Mine Inspector
Bernard Callahan and seven men made
another trip in the hope of rescue, re-
covered several bodies, and had a very
narrow escape from the fate that be-
fell the others, coming from the pit
burned and bruised and in the last
stages of exhaustion.
Surely human courage can extend no
farther than this, and men who have
led and survived forlorn hope in the
storming of beleagured fort or city
might we'll take off their hats to the
miners whoNdescended the shaft at
Port Royal They were plain, ordinary
toilers, unknown to fame and to whom
fortune was an utter stranger, and yet
they displayed that dauntless courage
nearly always to be found most con-
spicuous among the plain people of this
and other lands, and fully deserve the
most public recognition of their valor.
