GRIEF mOVE HER CRAZY
THE SAD CIRCUMSTANCES CONNECTED
WITH A MINER'S DEATH.
A WEIRD SCENE UNDERGROUND.
Wii.kesbar.re, March 6.
The story of the tragic death of
John Traynor, of Coal Run, this coun
ty contains elements of wcirdncss
scarcely ever found outside the realms
of fiction. Traynor was a fire boss in
one of the largest collieries in that
part of the coal regions. Yesterday
morning about 3 o'clock he entered
the mine, as was his custom, to exam
ine chambers and test the gas. He
never returned alive. His young wife
became alarmed at his strange absence,
and besought her neighbors to search
the chambers.
A party was organized and twelve
miners made a thorough search of the
works, but without avail. When the
news was broken to the wife she be
came distracted, and it was feared for
a time that she would go mad. She
became strangely calm, however, in a
short time, saying she was certain her
husband would be found.
WENT TO HUNT HER HUSBHND.
Diligent search throughout the vil
lage failed to discover any trace of her
whereabouts, and it was generally sup
posed that the loss of her husband had
unbalanced her mind and she had
wandered off to the mountains. A
nartv nf nin survevnrs who were ex
amining some old workings this tfter
noon stumbled on a sudden and start
ling solution of the mystery. Entering
an old breast close to the manway.
which forms the second opening of the
mine, they heard the sound of a hu
man voice in the darkness some dis
tance beyond. They listened intently
and were startled to recognize the
voice as that of a female crooning soft
ly the words of a love song. Summon
ing all their courage they crawled over
the loose coal to the place from where
the voice preceeded, flashing their
lamps around.
The light soon fell upon the face of
a wild-eyed woman, holding in her lap
the head of a man apparently dead.
She swayed gently from side to side
while she sung. It was a sight to chill
the stoutest heart with terror, and the
men were about to beat a hasty retreat
when one of them exclaimed : "My
God 1 it's Mrs. Traynor."
He was right. Gently the strong
men lifted up the poor woman, who
raised a cry of despair and fainted as
soon as she felt the friendly touch of
their hands. She was taken to the sur
face at once and borne to her desolate
home, followed by the dead body of
her young husband. 1 he wire is now
a raving maniac.
It is supposed that when she disap
peared she made directly for the man-
way and stumbled across the body of
her husband, who had Deen caugnt Dy
a fall of top coal on his way out, and
the discovery turned her brain. The
neighbors of the little mining town are
doing what they can for the afflicted
woman, but it is feared that her terri
ble experience in the mine has de
throned her reason forever.

A New Device for Saving Lives-
From the New York Sua-
Another ingenious mechanism has
bssn added to the vait number evolved
in railroad economies in the present
instance a new kind of clock, the pe
culiar capabilities of which it is thought
present special advantages to locomo
tive engineers. The dial plate and fig
ures are of large size, as are also both
the hour and minute hands, and the
operation of these latter constitutes
the novel feature in the invention. As
a train whirls past a station the hour
and minute hands whirl around like a
flash to mark the correct time, and a
red bullseye flashes into the dial ; five
minutes later the red light turns green,
and in five minutes more the green
light disappears. The engineer on the
next train following can thus tell ex
actly how many minutes ahead is the
train that precedes him. The dock is
a perfect timekeeper, and when the
train passes drops the signal light.

Oa The Drum Head-
THE CURLY HEADED SPY WAS SHOT TO
DEATH BY SOLDIERS.
We had crossed the river to hunt
for Lee and give him battle in the wil
derness. Darkness was just settling
down and the advance had halted lor
the night when a squad of cavalry
brought in a young man from our front.
He wore a mixed uniform, as did most
of the Confederates at that day, or as
did most of those belonging to the par
tisan command!1. He had on blue
trousers, a butternut jacket and his
hat belonged to neither side. They
said he was a spy. 1 hey said it care
lessly enough, but fhere was an awful
significance in the term, at that hour.
In camp he would have been searched,
interrogated and imprisoned. It might
have been weeks before his trial and
he would have been allowed every
chance for his life.
We were on the march. There had
been fighting. There would be more
to mor.ow. That meant a drum head
trial for the spy.
How speedily everything was ar
ranged I I was at headquarters and
saw and heard it all. Within half an
hour a court martial was convened
grave faced officers who looked into
the face of the young man at first with
interest then with something like ad
miration. I sa d a young man, I was
wrong. He was a boy of 17 or 18.
He had big blue eye-, chestnut curls
and his cheeks were ai smooth as a
girl's. He was a handsome lad, and I
believe that every man in the tent felt
to pity him.
'What's your name ?"
'James Blank."
"What regiment?"
No reply.
Are you a citizen or soldier?'
No reply. .
"Can you make any defense to the
charge of being a spy ?"
No reply.
The officers looked at each other
and nodded, and the president waved
his hand. It didn't seem a minute be
fore a file of soldiers tame. The face
of the boy grew white, but he moved
like one in a dream. His big blue eyes
looked upon one after another, as if
searching for a friend, and my heart
yearned to cry out that he was only a
boy and ought to be given more time.'
Tramp! Tramp! Tramp I
It was the detail marching him off
into the darkness.
4 Halt ! Tie this handkerchief over
his eyes!"
They had brought a lantern. By its
light I saw the big blue eyes for the
last time as they looked around in a
dazed way. I wanted to shout to the
boy and warn him that it was not even
yet too late to prove that he was. not
what they believed hiui to I e, but the
grimness of the scene parched my
tongue.
"Place him there! Fallback! At
tention! Read) aim fire!"
Ten minutes later the officer in
charge of the firing party touched his
cap and reported :
"Orders have been executed, sir?"
"Any further evidence ?"
'No, sir, except that she was a
young woman!" New York World'

Till VKIUIllOri TARANTULA.
lit an rciiconatrr II Kills a Rattle
ink In Ten Mlnntee.
It Is qui to a common thing among the
soldiers of Arizona to jit tarantulas
ngninst eac!i other and bet on tlie fight
itig power of their favorites. This fact
uudoiibtedly suggested to the clerk in
II. II. Tsiumon's curiosity store in Den
ver the idea of getting up a tight he
tweon 0 large and lively turantula and A
rattlesnake.
Before the fight began the odd were
ten to one in favor of the snake, and
there were few takers. The proprietor
was not iu at the time and the clerk had
closed tho store for the night, so there
was not much probability of au interrup
tion. The big make was driven into one
end of hie cage and a partition let down
to keop him safe, to the tarautula oould
be introduced.
The little sliding door at the other end,
carefully protected by a closely-woven
wire screen, was raised and the tarantula
slipped Into the) compartment Then the
partition was pulled up and eager eyes
peered through the glass sides of the
cage to witness the result The tarantula
arose and brUtled all over like a chestnut
burr, the rattlesnake reared its head and
thrust forth its forked tonguo with the
rapidity of lightniug. Thus the two
strange and deadly creatures remaiuod
for a moment gazing at each other. Sud
denly there was heard the thrilling
whirr of the snake's rattles and with the
pliancy of a steel spring the snake threw
himself into a coil with his head raised
in the center and vibrating rapidly from
ide to side. The tarantula was as im
movable as if carved in stone.
Suddenly, with a motiwu almost too
swift for ilia eye to follow, the rattler
etruck, but he missed his mark, for the
tarantula, with the speed of lightning,
bounded into the air, and, descending on
one of the serpent's coils, sunk his fangs
into the flesh. The suake instantly began
thrashing around the cage and dislodged
bis foe.
Again the tarantula became immov
able, and again the serpent coiled and
truck, only to be foiled. Fire seemed
to flash from the eyee of both the con
testants, and both appeared to know that
it was a fight to the death.
There was uow a tremulous motion vis
ible in every limb of the tarantula, and
it was evident that he was contemplating
offensive measures. With the leap of a
tiger he bounded upon his foe and once
more sank his fangs into the body of the
snake. This time it was in vain for the
serpent to writhe and flounder, for the
tarantula clung to bis enemy with the
tenacity of a bulldog. The epider was
bruised and beaten, some of his legs were
broken, but he held on with desperate
courage, and gradually the efforts of the
rattler grew weaker, until at last his coils
relaxed, and with only a faint vibration
of his tail he lay stretched out upon the
bottom of his cage dead. The deadly
venom of the tarantula had done its work.
The fight lasted only ten minutes, and
woe a most thrilling exhibition of ferocity
and oourage. The quicknees of motion
exhibited by the tarantula was marvel
ous, and through it be avoided being
struck by the serpent The dead serpent
was evldeuce against the clerks, and they
had to confess ko the proprietor that they
had introduced the tarautula to the ser
pent with a reeult none of them had ao
tioipated. Arizona Qreat Divide.
. The Largest Piper Kvee Pabltehed.
The Paper World has among its odds
and ends a copy of what is supposed to
have been the largest single-sheet news
paper ever published In this or any other
country. It was entitled the Illumin
ated Quadruple Constellation, and was
issued at Hew York, July 4, 1850, by one
George Robert-. The edition was to have
been 88,000, but it is reported that the
press broke down before the full number
was run. It was sold at SO cents a copy.
The size of this mastodon sheet was 70
by 100 laches, or almost 49 square feet,
eight pages, 18 columns to the page, or a
total of 104 columns each 49 inches in
length.
It was illustrated with good portraits
of President James Buchanan, Edward
Everett. Henry Ward De-cher, N. P,
Banks, Etwin II. Chapin, Horace Oreo
ley, Elizabeth Barrett Browning, Alex
ander vou II urn bold t, James Gordon
Bennett aud several others. The paper
contained 80 differeut euia entire,
among tUoiu "LVaddock's Defeat, or the
Battle of Monougahela," a posut ot 64
eight-liue versus, occupying one column
and a fourth, or exactly five feet of
pace.
Among other nrtictee of especial note
published in that leviathau sheet was tho
celebrated "Woon Hoax," taken from a
copy of tho New York Sun, published in
1833. The weight of the pajxT required
for the edition of 23,000 was equal to
that required for printing 2, 000,0;cpies
of either the New York Time orVer
aid. The paper cost the publiaht-J
ream and each ream wuihed 860 pounds.
It required the work of 40 persona 10
hours per day for eight weeks to set uy
