Charleston. w. Va, March 20.-As
the result OF the horrible explosion in

charred and blackened remains OF
their fellow worSmen. These latter
we're killed by a second explosion OF
the after-damp
The first explosion seemed 10 shake
the foundations of the mountains, and
the angry twin Hash from the two
neighboring drift mouths lighted up
the heavens for miles around. Soon
from the mining villages for several
miles up and down the river hun
dreds OF people rushed 10 the scene
OF the dreadful disaster The first ex'
plosion was cause by a naked
flame coming In q act with the gas
The flames leaped from the drift
mouth and set fire to everything in
reach that was not blown from harms
way by the force OF the explosion. The
great drum by which the loaded cars
are run from the drift mouth down
the incline to the hpple and the
empties drawn up was blown from its
moorings and down the mountain side
500 feet while the drum house caught
Ore and was totally consumed. The
cars that stood at the mouth OF the
mine were blown far down towards the
tipple. and much OF the track Of the
incline was destroyed. The big fan
that furnished air in the mine was SC
damaged that II was several hours
before II could be started again.
A rescue party was formed, am
about 20 men entered the mine II
search Of the bodies OF those who ha
perished at the FIRST explosion. Tn
men explored the mine for two o.
three hours putting up bratices s,
that pure air should follow them wher

During the past week the citizens -
Wilmington have been regaled with such
advertising as would give them an im-
preston that a real benefaetor had come
to our city and that carloads Of world
renowned" pianos were TO be distributed
among our people at less than half usual
prices, or practically given away, SO far
as profit is concerned. This looks very
generous and II would seem strange that
the name OF Carnegie is not coupled with
so kind and benevolent proposition.

incidentally appears in some OF these
shrewdly worded advertisements.
It seems then that the boastingly
wealthy kimbali Co. OF Chicago is the
Inspiration OF this benevolent scheme.
The people OF Wilmington would surely
appreciate the great offcr Of getting these
