Belle Valley, o., May 19.-The No

for the funeral today of the Is
miners who were killed when they
were imprisoned, 1874 feet below the
surface, by an explosion,
Twelve newly-made widows sat 81
lently beside the remains of theil
husbands and 43 children either cried
themselves to sleep or prayed for
their papas to come back to them.
The blame for the accident has not
been fixed. Fire Boss Sam Soltis, who
was rescued, inspected the mine be-
fore the night shift went on and re-
ported everything safe. Sixty-seven
minutes later he was fighting, crop.
ing, feeling his way toward the shaft,
bent upon escape.
Soltis, through an interpreter, told
of his experiences: 81 was directing

the tipple when the explosion came.

bore the stamp of gentleman, and yet
surely he was a thief and by some
trick had got away with my property.
However. there was nothing for me
to do, so far as could see. but pocket
my loss and say nothing about 1t. This
course commended itself to me, be-

MIXED TRAIN STRUCK
BY A LANDSLIDE
Hurled Down Mountain Side and
Six Persons Killed.

Hinton, W. Va, May 81. - Six per.
sons were killed and number injured
when a mixed train on the Sewell
branch of the Chesapeake & Ohio
railroad was swept down a steep
mountain side by a landslide. The
train, composed of an engine, three
freight cars and a caboose, the latter
carrying passengers, had stopped be-.
tween Sewell and Landisburg to clear
away debris deposited by a cloud
burst While this work was in prog.
ress another slide occurred and the
train was thrown from the tracks
down 300 feet of the mountain side.
Among the dead are James Walker
of Hinton, travelling salesman, and
Mrs. Amicll of Landisburg. A girl is
known to have been killed. Three
other passengers, all men, known to
have been aboard the cabOose, have
not been seen since the accident and
are believed to be dead under the
wreckage.
News of the accident was brought
here by J. Muckles of Charleston, w.
Va, who had left the train when it
stopped on account of the first land
slide. Muckles walked to Sewell. He
declared the train was swallowed up
completely.
The Celina Democrat. (Celina, O. [Ohio]) 1895-1921, 1913-05-23

There is golden opportunity for the mem
bers Of the Ohio delegation in Congress to
force an expression to the new ideals in politics.
of which we have heard so much lately.
If these members will make use of the recent
flood disaster in this state as a sledge with
which to break down the old pork barrel"
method of distributing appropriations for river
improvements, the 456 ohioans who died in the
flood will not have yielded up their lives in
vain.
The rivers and harbors bill has constituted
an annual disgrace at Washington for years
without number. At each session Of Congress
there has been presented the spectacle OF divid-
ing several millions of dollars among the var
ious Congressman for alleged river improve
ments. In many instances these improvements
have been made where they were not needed,
and where the expenditure was sheer wacts of
