The Mountain Maid.


Half seated Oh a mossy crag.
Half crouchlng in the heather;
l found little Irish maid,
All in June's golden weather.
Like some fond hand that loved the
child,
The wind tossed back her tresses;
The heath bells touched her unclad feet
With shy and soft carcsses.
A mountain linnet flung his song
Into the air around her;
But all in vain the splendid hour,
For deep in woe l found her.
"Ahone! Ahone! Ahonew she wept.
The tears fell fast and faster;
l sat myself beside her there,
To hear of her disaster.
Like dew on roses down her cheek,
The diamond drops We're stealing;
She laid her two brown hands in mine,
Her trouble all revealing.
Alas! Alas! the tale she told,
III Gaelic low and tender;
\ plague upon my Saxon tongue,
l could not comprehend her.

Estimates of Dead.
Johnstown, Pa, July 12.-Just as
day broke through the pail Of fog Fri
day the grim details of awful disas-
ter at the Rolling Mill mine of the
Cambria Steel company dawned with
renewed force on the thousands witt
ing for authentic news rs to the extent
of the explosion. Fortyscvcn dead
bodies. all contorted and many black
encd and burned lie stretched on
rough slabs in the improviscd morgue
in the Armory building. Forty more
are in cars in the mine, ready to be
borne out as fast as room can be made
for them Last estimates of the num-
her of dead reduce the fatal scope of
the calamity. But these, while fixing
ii at around 100 are not conclusive.
General Superintendent G. j. Robin
son would not say at this time wheth-
er he thought there were 100 or 800
dead. lie says there is no way of
telling until full investigation Of the
mine is made. When that will be he
says he has no means of telling. All
tered in clearing the heading of after
damp.
Great Money Loss.
Outside Of the property loss this
catastrophe will cost the Cambria
Steel company large sum.
The company has for many years
past paid the family of every person
killed in it's employ $1,000, outside
of what it expended for medical
purposes, and it has paid every man
who has lost an eye, limb or became
otherwise partially disabled the
sum of $500. 1T is understood that
