and without excitement The members
OF the rescue gangs worked like so
many machines.

treme entry, and to reach them it will
be necessary to clear away almost a
solid wall Of wreckage which the ex-
ploGion heaped up near the cutoff Of
the south portion OF the slope.
The explosion was caused by q
windy shaft setting off a pocket of
gas. 1t caught the thirteen members
OF the night shift like rats in trap

light of their lanterns into the mouth
of the slope the men discovered the
entrance choked with wreckage.
The alarm was at once spread and
within a few minutes the mine Off
cials and small army OF trained men
were on the scene
