Black crepe hung from the doors
Of seven miners home today as state
mine inspectors plodded In the deep
snow about the tipple of mine No. 8
of the Old Ben Coal Company in
whose depths a gas explosion Sun
day claimed the lives of the seven
and trapped fifteen others.
A blizzard ragged above ground
when the explosion occurred on the
30G-foot level beneath the surface a
mile and a quarter from the shaft
A screen OF shale dust was dropped
automatically by a safety device,
shutting off the poisonous fumes
from other sections of the mine. In
those protected areas, rescue work.
ers found the fifteen survivors and
brought them to the serface.
The women folk of the mining
town. stoical in the face of tragedy,
clustered about the mine entrance
despite the Snow-laden wind. For
hours they stood there while rescue
crews from Benton arrived and be-
gan clearing away debris.
Relief, manifested here by a sob,
there by handclasp. spread among
the women as the fifteen who
escaped were brought to the surface.
Despair remained for others as it
was determined who the victims
were.
The identified dead were: Thomas
McDermott mine examiner. 60;
