pounds Of blasting powder, was ex-
plodsd by the shocks in the mine, and
great damage was done 70 the mouth
Of the slope.
Bowcn was Badiy Ehzhen.
The town Of Bowen. situated about
a quarter Of n mile below the mine,
was shaken and a number Of windows
broken. Immediately after the ex-
plosion almost the entire population
Of the town rushed TO the mouth Of
the mine.
The explosion occurred about 900
feet from the surface. The mine was
quickly filled with gas and smoke.
and those who escaped instant death
were undoubtedly suffocated.
