WHAT MINERS ARE PAID FOR.
A Calling That Means Hard Work
and Much Danger.

E. w. Mayo, in Frank Leslie's MONTHLY.
The assertion that the miners or the fam
lilies of miners were starving upon the
wages that they received is not true. In
the face OF multiplied missta tements, per-
sonal observation compels this admission
That they were paid enough nobody who
knows the work they do will be prepared
to say. Their toll is the most severe that
the hands of man perform anywhere in the
earth. Two-thirds of their waking life is
spent down in the dungeons of the SOIL
where the air is always vitiated and where
the danger of sudden death, from which
the devout pray to be delivered, is always
present. 1t kills ambition early, and bows
the frame beyond the power of muscles to
straighten il.
Almost every third man one meets in the
mines bears on his arms or face the pc
culiar blue marks which are the imprint of
falling coal. Nearly all the older men have
experienced the horrors of mine imprison-
ment at one time or another, and there is
seldom a day in the coal fields that some
woman is not widowed by the mines.
Down in the depths of the Coleraine shaft
a miner told me of the HaZleton horror OF
half a dozen years ago, when the water
came into the mine and shut him off, along
with sixteen OF his comrades of how they
crept UP on the pigeon breast" for safety
and lay there gasping for breath, killing
mine rats for food and dying one by one
through nineteen long days, until at length
four unconscious survivors were drawn out
by the rescuers. He told it simply and
without emotion; for ii was only an Incl
dent of mine work. an accident the like of
which any old miner can recall from his
own remembrance; but it afforded a vivid
picture of the burden and horror of mine
work, the daily playing with death which
makes up the miners life
The old men know il, and bend every en-
ergy to keep their from being con-
demned to the life in the mines. The young
men know il, but are drawn into it by stern
necessity. A brawny young miner at
Milnesville voiced the penalties OF his oc-
cupation with truth that was pathetic when
one viewed his physical perfection.
Its killing work." he said, land / know
the end of it all as well as you or anybody
I'll die from the gas, or get caught in a fall

There is as much variety in the menu as
possible. For breakfast one may have any

Luncheon is a simple meal, as most of the
men are away, and dinner gives a soup, a
