DESCRIPTION OF THE MINE.
The mine in which the disaster
occurred is one of the largest coal
mines in the United States, accord
lng to the statement of the officials
tonight. From the entrance IN the
hill across the river from the point
to the one at Mill Creek is dis
lance of three and three quarters
miles. The Klondike section, in
which the explosion occurred, is
about two miles from the Mill Greek
entrance.
The mine is divided into a large
number of headings, levels and Sec
tions. The sections run off to the
left and right of the headings, ana
are known as rights and lefts by the
miners. The men who escaped this
afternoon have spent years working
in it. Otherwise they could never
have reached the surface. Lights
were out and there was no way for
them to find their way to the top had
thew not not known the mine per-
fectly.
EFFECT OF THE EXPLOSION.
The few survivors who have es
capped from The depth of the mine
describe the condition as frightful.
Outside of the "Klondike" the mines
are safe and uniDjured. Within the
fatal limits of the mine the havoc
wrought by the explosion is such as
beggars description. Solid walls OF
masonry three feet through were
torn down as though barriers OF
paper. The roofs of the mine were
demolished and not door remains
standing
Brave attempts at rescue were
made here. Mining Engineer Moore
and bis assistant, Al G. Prosser, tried
to make some headwsY toward the
imprisoned miners three and half
miles away, but they were driven
back by the deadly gasses. Richard
Bennett and John Meyers, two min
ers were similarly driven back. Then
the attempt at rescue work from the
main opening was shifted to Mill
Greek, five miles from this city.
Business in the city was practl-
cally at a standstlll.

Johnstown, Penn, July 1O.-Johns-
town has again been visited by an
appalling disaster.
1t is only less frightful than the
awful calamity of May 81, 1889, in
lost of life, but in it's terrible conse-
quence it has brought the shadow of
sorrow in hundreds of homes made
desolate by mine explosion, which
took place in the Cambria Steel Com
pany Rolling Mill mine, under West
mount Hill, at 1920 o'clock this
afternoon.
How many are dead it may take
several days to ascertain, but that it
is long and shocking list is certain
tt NAV reach two hundred or more
men.
It was nearly an hour after the ez-
plosion before any general knowledge
of what had happened got abroad
Men who came from the mines, es.
Gaping with their lives, told the ter
rible news and soon it spread like
wild fire all over the city. In scores
of homes there were the most pa
thetie scenes. Mothers, wives, daugh-
tiers, sons and relatives were FRANTIC
with grief. Hundreds rushed to the
point and, with sobbing hearts,
awaited news hat did not come from
the Ill fated mine.
NARROW ESCAPE OF AMERICANS.
About a score of Americans, who
were at work in the KIondike district,
noticed the presence of the fire damp
in their apartment soon after the ex
plosion occurred and started at once
for the main entrance. They were
almost overcome by the G =, but
reached the outside in safety. One
of the men who got out safely said
il was not known what caused the
explosion, and that it will probably
never be known, as he believed none
of the men in the Klondike district
can be saved.

Great MEMS peformities.

Lord BYRON. who was otherwise a
magnificent specimen of Il man, had a
club foot, OF which he was ANYTHING
but proud. If, however, it de-
tracted from his appearance and him
dered locomotion, it did not hamper
his genius. Byron was possessed of
Il morbid fear of going out of his
mind.
Indeed, all poets are said to be more
or less mad. Cowper was certainly
subject to fits of lunacy. as was like
wise Chattcrton, who killed himself
in Il fit of arrangement The same is
true of Rosseau. Ccrvantes. Southey
and Swift.
Alexander Pope was Il hunchback,
with Il very caustic tongue, which
once resulted in his as good as being
told that he was "a crooked little
thing that asks impudent questions"
Throughout his life Sir Walter
Scott could only walk with limp.
AS Il boy he was afflicted with paraly-
sis, which left him permanently lame.
AS anybody could gather from his
works. Thomas Carlyle was n chronic
dyspeptic. A state OF irritation ap-
pears to have been his normal condi-
tion, and in the absence of his pecu-
liar almcnt he might have been a far
more amable being. his writings
would certainly have lost some of
their most prominent characteristics.
Like Demosthenes. Charles Kings
ley was afflicted with suffering, but
he did not cure himself of the fuiling
as did the famous Athenian orator by
practicing speaking with pebbles in
his mouth.

the temple. He became the worlds
teacher that men might know the
truth and the truth would make them
free. He commissioned his church to
continue the work of teaching all ma
lions until the end of time, in order
that all men might be taught Alright.
All that is beautiful, in the sentiments
Of Christian Scientists, all that is true.
all that is Sublime and elevating has
been taught to the world and put into
practical application for the benefit of
man, by the church which Jesus
Christ established and commanded to
"teach all nations" Christian Science Is
not new, it is collection Of long-dis-
carded heresies. 1t has taken some
from the Manicheans, some from the
Pantheistic German philosophers,
who admitted that nobody understood
them, something from Buddhism
and the Occultism Of Madame Bla-
vatsky, and profanely distorted what
ever it has taken from the Bible. 1t
is certainly mystery how any Catho-
lie can be deceived by it's vagaries.
Because evil exists in the world, it as
sumes that God is tie author of evil,
unless we admit that there is an evil
principle that produces evil. Evil.
sin, vice, virtue. goodness. are not
things to be created, they arc quail
ties. God has given man free will.
Hence he can do right or wrong, just
as he chooses.
God cannot prevent man from
wrong-doing unless He robs him of
the liberty with which He has en-
dowed him. God teaches men the
right, and helps them by His grace
to do the right. God enlightens mems
minds with the light of infallible truth,
and guides them by the religion
that He has given them to follow
this light and assures them that
it will lead to light eternal. His
eternal Son warned them against
blind guides that attempt to lead the
blind. Nevertheless, many who
would scorn to be taught, or led by
the divinely appointed church of the
living God, that has rescued the
world from the darkness of idolatry,
and given it our enlightened civiliza-
ton, are not ashamed to be deceived
by the rhapsodies of the Rev. Mary
Baker G. Eddy, of Alexander Dowie,
or Robert G. Ingersoll.
May the God of infinite truth and
mercy have compassion on a blind
and deluded generation!
