some OF them tin they were carried out

Thousands OF the moTbidly curious
hoclsed into Bricevile today and crowded
about the main entry of the mine. They
saw nothing but the pitiable grief OF the
stricken families,
There is hardly family in the entire
Coal Creek valley that has not felt the
touch OF death. The problem Of caring
for the widows and orphans is great. re-
curing immediate solution, Certainly
Briceyillc will be unable TO care for It's

Tonight food is scarce, but plentiful

tho mouth of the minc as thousands con-

others momentarily from one point OF
vantage TO another.
The single disturbance OF the silence
was when the Rev. Z, NJ. Richie, pas

Saturday as a warning and prepare TO
