SPRING MILLS. !
Well, we had the onion snow of several inches
on Saturday night last. Now let the weather
bureau give us spring weather. We are all
tired of winter.
Wm. Zones has improved his residence on the
avenue by erecting a very handsome and attrac-
tive portico. It adds greatly to the appearance
of the neighborhood.
Cleaning up time has arrived, and many of our
good people are busy repairing fencing and re-
moving the garden rubbish for active operation in
the digging line—garden making.
The little folks are waiting patiently for Eas-
ter—for the Easter rabbit and sugar eggs. Some |
little tots say they want 2 good many eggs, and |
colored ones, ton, Hops their “eggspectation” |
will be realized. i
We don't often have auction sales here on Sun- |
days, but the cold type in last week's issue, stated |
that W. O. Gramiey would dispose at public sale
all of his live stock on the i6th inst. Of course it
should have been the 15th. Considerble fun was
poked at Mr. Gramley for the inadvertency, but
he managed to get out of it by charging the blun-
der to a black bottle in the hands of the WATCH. |
MAN correspondent. i
Who was the stranger arriving here very quiet. |
ly one afternoon last week, and after treating a |
party at the hotel, took a view of himself in a |
glass and remarked, “Indeed boys, | do look '
tough, but | feel all right. Come let's have an-
other one.” This he reprated several times and
finally disappeared as suddenly as he arrived. |
What was the object? Who was he? A stray sales.
man on an extended lark?
A day or two since [ called into the millinery
parlors of Mrs. George N. Wolf, to take a view of
the summer styles of feminine head wear. Peing
one of her opening days, the parlors were throng
ed with admiring and anxious sight seers. The
array of hats and turbans are bewildering. The
season's styles are decidedly more sensible than
for a number of years. The Easter trimmed hats
arc perfectly exquisite, and the Paris models are
really superb, and indeed, when you enter the
parlors you are at once impressed with the won:
derful beauty of the elegant spring and summer
millinery as displayed by Mrs. Wolfe.
Robert Smith, one of our builders and archi
tects, has just completed for the Hon. Wm. Alli-
son, a very imposing and spacious residence, con-
taining thirty-two elegantly finished rooms. It
is unquestionably the handsomest apartment
house in the county, single or suites of rooms can
be secured at a mere nominal rent. This beauti-
ful and attractive building, an artistic piece of
work, is really a bird house, and erected on a |
i
heavy post ten feet high onthe lawn directly op- |
posite the mill—a fine location, and when the
rooms are all occupied, the occupants will evi-
dently make the neighborhood decidedly lively.
MINES PROVED TOMB FOR 201.
Seventy-three mine workers, a few
of them boys, lost their lives in the |
Dunmore, also caled China, vein of the |
Pancoast colliery at Throop, near |
Scranton, Pa.
The Dunmore vein of the mine is 750
feet below the surface, making fire
fighting difficult. The colliery is own-
ed by the Scranton Coal company, af- |
fillated with the New York, Ontario & |
Western company. i
~The fire which caused the mine hor- |
ror broke out from some unknown and |
mysterious cause in the engine house |
at the foot of the shaft. Many persons
attribute it to spontaneous combus-
tion. At the time there were 300 men
and boys in the various veins a |
chambers of the mine. The flames set |
off accumulations of gas, which in-
creased the difficulty and doubtless in-
creased the loss of life. i
The vicinity of the mine seethed |
with excitement. It was difficult to ob- |
tain a coherent statement from any |
one. About the head of the shaft were
gathered thousands of people, includ-
ing the relatives and friends of the
men entombed. Ropes had to be
stretched to keep back the crowd and !
to prevent a stampede when the bod-
ies were brought out. :
The company officials acted with |
the greatest promptness when they
learned the extent of the disaster, but
once started the fire spread with re-
markable rapidity. It caught on the
timbering of the shaft and spread
along the gangway. It seized upon
everything that it could devour and
with a wall of flame separated from
safety the men who were in distant
chambers of the Dunmore vein.
As soon as it was seen that the fire
was baffling the efforts to subdue it
word was sent for the government
rescue car at Kingston, and this re-
sponded, bringing four men equipped
with apparatus, including helmets re-
sembling those of divers, for penetrat-
ing into smoke and the dreaded fire
damp.
This was the first test of the rescue :
car and its crew. The helmeted men
were the only ones that could pene-
trate into the affected gangway, and
they recovered the bodies found.
Joseph Evans, head of the United
States mine rescue car, died. A de-
fective rescue helmet caused him to
suffocate while working in the burn-
ing mine.
The only man brought out alive from | bei
the zone of the fire was Joseph Vick-
ers, a fire boss. Vickers finding the
fire was becoming dangerous, accom-
panied by a companion, ran down the
gangway to give the alarm. Before
they had zone far their lights went
out. Vickers realized his danger and
started back. He missed his compan-
fon. He managed to get by the worst
place on his return, but had gone only
a little way beyond it when he was
overcome by smoke. Hours later he
was found by the fire fighters.
Miner Crushed to Death.
A sudden fall of many tons of earth
and rock in an ore mine belonging
to the Juniata Furnace and Foundry
company, near Beavertown, Carroll
township, Pa. killed John Heiges,
forty-five years old. Several other min-
ers barely escaped the same fate.
Heiges was completely buried from |
sight and his body crushed beyond |
recognition.

ANOTHER APPEAL.
To the Editor Democratic Walchman.
DEAR Sir: —Several weeks ago we were
privileged through the courtesy of your
valuable paper to pubiish a letter giving |
particulars relative to our financial stand-
We thought we
owed the public that much for the ready
help we received from all during our
most trying crisis; and indeed we are al-
ways indebted to our good people for the |
willing assistance we received from time
to time. Since the publication of our let-
| ter we have tried hard to obtain a loan to
settle immediate claims against us; but
most of the moneyed people, at best, we
have been only able to (falk business:
everybody is “restricted” and can’t help
We are thus driven to
hope on the leniency of our creditors and
especially our building contractor whose
mechanic's lien terminates this month.
With resolute will and faith in God we
are trying to raise at least $300 by the
| 23rd inst. with which, if possible, to par-:
tially obviate danger. To do this we are |
sacrificing to the very extreme; even the !
pastor's salary is so far behind that he |
cannot live comfortably, nothing said:
about his creditors; as all the effortis be- |
ing directed to the church debt. On|
April 20th we will offer at the Bush Ar-|
cade a chicken and waffle supper for sale |
as our last struggle in a series of strug- |
gles. We earnestly pray for the very best |
that our friends and patrons can for
us. Any one wishing to assist us by way |
of a donation just at this very critical pe- |
riod will receive due credit and the
amount properly jpplied by sending check |
to the pastor. ease help us by pur-
chasing tickets for supper at 25 cents on |
Thursday, April 20th. |
