HORSE MEAT AND HAY

Lens. France. March 30.-Fourteen of
the 1,200 miners who were entombed in
the coal mines at Courrires 20 days ago
were taken from the mine alive and
well today They had lived on hay
found in one of the underground stables
and the morsels of food which they took
into the mine with them nearly three
weeks ago. All attempts to rescue the
entombed men had been abandoned
more than two weeks ago.
The sudden appearance of the i'm
prisoned men caused stupefaction. A
sang of saIvagers had just completed
their nights work when they were
startled to see a group of miners, terri
bly, haggard and exhausted and with
eyes sunken appear from a remote part
OF the pit The strongest of the party
said they had broken out of a distant
galley where they had been entombed
since the disaster Of March 10. The
rescued men were taken up the elevator
but were unable to see owing to the
dazzling daylight. The mine officials
were deeply affected as the weeping
survivors were taken to a hospital
The men were able to talk feebly but
audibly. They all asked for news of
relatives or friends and wished to go
home Immediately. The doctors have
prevented them with difficulty from so
mines IN the hope of hearing of further
escapes, neeessitating- the employment
OF stronI police force and detach-
ments of troops to maintain order. It
is said that others of the entombed min
ers are alive and about to be brought
out, their signals having been heard.
One Of the men rescued today, a man
named Nemy said that for the first
eight DAYS the party ate the bark off
the timbering of the mine Later they
found the deeomposed body of a horse
which they cut UP and ate with hay
The survivors brought up portions of
the decompOsed horse meat.
Neny, who was the most lucid of the
miners who escaped, graphically de-
scribed their imprisonment as follows;
After the explosion, I groped my
way about stumbling over bodies and
seeking refuge from the gases I found
some comrades sheltered in a remote
niche We ate earth and bark for
eight days.
I'VE continued to grope among the
bodies seeking for an outlet from our
prison but We're forced back time and
ate and two days after we found
dead horse which we cut up and ate
with the hay and bark. We suffered
most for the want of water. Finally
we became desperate and separated in
to three parties and communicated with
each other by shouts.
Last night we felt a draft of fresh
air which finally guided US to an open

THE WIND BLOWS TODAY.
Otherwise Weather May Be Described
as Pleasant.

Today has been as wild as the prov
erbial one in March. The wind has
whistled and hOwled ever since early
morning and the air has been filed
with particles of dust ground so fine
that breathing has been next to inpos-
sible. Judging from the dustiness of
the streets one would hardly imagine
that it has been but a few days since
they were covered with snow to the
depth Of half a foot.
The wind of yesterday and today has
had the effect of bringing into view a
few leaves on the more hardy Of the
trees which have been sWelIed to the
bursting point by the rising sap for the
past two weeks.
