Men from the Dad
-O:her News.

Lens, France, March 30.-The
disaster at the Courriers coal mines
had startling sequal today, when
thirteen miners were taken out alive
after having endured unspeakable
horrors during the 20 days of en-
tombment. The story of the sur
vivors, so far as it has beea told,r
discloses that they lived for many
days on putrid horse-meat, amid
total darkness and the stencil of
scores Of decaying corpses. The
presence of human flesh would
speedily have forced the starving
men to resort to the last desperate
extremity if they had not been re.
cued.
The survivors were sturdy young
men from II to 25 years of age, ex-
cept their leader, Henri Nemy, who
is 38 years of age. All show the
terrible effects of their experiences,
being emaciated and blinded. The
Doctors enforced quiet upon them,
fearing the results of fever and
poisoning from their having ga en-
decayed horsefesh.
There were touching scenes as
wives and mothers greeted those
whom they had long given up as
dead. Crowds besieged the hospit-
ais to which the men were taken,
cheering the survivors and impre-
eating the Ineffective nature of the
salvage work that followed imme-
diately after the disaster.
The rescue of these 13 men re-
vived hope In many families that
others are alive and the relatives of
those whose bodies have not been
recovered clamorously demanded
that efforts be redoubled to bring
out any possible survivors.
There is a report that in addition
to thes13 men who were brought up
out of the mine tod y, five others
came with them almost to the bot
tom Of the pit. but were unable to
come further on accoun- Of exhaus.

The total number Of men miss
Ing after the catastrophe was 1212.
The bodies recovered approximate
ly number 500 and there are still
unaccounted for approximately
!! 700.
The mine officials were deeply af.
fected as the weeping survivors were
taken to hospital. They all asked
for news of relatives and friends,
and wished to 60 home Immediately.
The doctors, however, prevented
them with difficulty from so doing.
It is said that others of the en-
ltombed miners are alive and about

New York, April 1.-The World
tomorrow will say: One of the larg.
est merchants in New York said
last night that arrangements are
being perfected here and in Paris
for an invasion of Venezuela, which
will annihilate Castro and open up
the country to American capital
and enterprise.
A number of rich New York
merchants are said to be interested
in the movement, which, the pro-
moters declare. will involve the em.
ployment of Il, 600 soldiers and the
expenditure of $5 900, 900 in the
campaign under which President
Castrozis tosbes either expelled or
destroyed and a native Venezuelan
statesman is 10 be installed as his
successor. -.,, ST.
In this connection it is said that
Castro, Anticipating a successful
revolution against him sooner orla-
ter, has converted some Of his al.
legged $4, ,ooo, 600 fortune into cash
and has sent 1t to America and
France. 26 - SF<@
= Carlos Fuegerdo, Venezuelan COB
sui in New York, said last night at
his home that. he had heard such
an expedition was being orgrnized
or being promoted, but had been
unable to learn anythidg definite
about it. He said he had under
stood shares in the scheme were be-
ing sold.
" would like to get hold OF
some Of those sharee," he said, Il
will buy all that are offered"
The consul enquired eagerly as
to the point the expedition was to
sail from Europe In three large
steamships, which are already un.
der contract. They are to carry
about 5000 volunteers, with the
following quantities of arms and
| ammunition: Eight thousand Matt
ser rifles of the latest pattern, a.
900 rounds Of cartridges, 500 shells.
Is rapid guns, 5000 officers re-

to be brought out, their signals
having been heard.
One of the men rescued today, a
man named Nemey. said that for
the first eight days the party eight
the bark off the timb rs of the mine.
Later they found the decompos-
ed body of a horse, which they cut
up and ate with hay. The surviv-
ors brought up portions of decom-
posed horsemeat. .----.
When cut off by explosion the
miners took refuge In stable where
the mules were kept. They sub
sisted for days on the lunches that
their dead comrades took down on
the day Of the disaster and had #
in the stables. Wnen all these
lunches were exhausted, the men
lived on the grain and water kept
for the livestock.
When taken out the men looked
more like ghosts than human be-
ings. Pale and emaciated, color
less, blinking at the unwonted light
of day, the rescued indeed were pi,-
liable objects, They were immedi-
ately surrounded by a throng of
friends and relatives who showerei
their congratulations upon them.
All were taken to hospital where
they will be treated until able to r.
turn to their homes.
The men were found in a remote
part of tbs mine which had not
teen affected by the fire which
ragged for two weeks In the mine
following the explosion. They had
lived 20 days with no light and but
little air. With one exception the
men were we'll, but could not have
lived long.

One Dollar Saved Represents Ten
Dollars Earned.

The average man does not save to exceed
ten per cent. of his earnings. He mustspend
nine dollars in living expenses for every
dollar saved. That being the case he can
not be too careful about unnecessary ex-
penses. Very often a few cents properly in
vested, like buying seeds for his garden, will
save several dollars outlay later on. 1t is
the same in buying ChamberIain's Collie,
Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy It costs
but a few cents, and bottle oft in the house
often saves doctors bill of several dollars.
