and Its general character. Three pupllt
completed the course, Mist Cora Vandyke,
Miss Bessie Evans and Miss Litzie Harle
man. The Hall was crowded with an
audience made up of the most intelligent
citizens of the town. Essays were read by
tbe members of tbe class and were reward
ed with rounds of applause and handsome
bouquets. The essayt showed careful re
paration and were well read. Alter tho
reading of the essayt, Mr. Balllet, the
County Superintendent, was Introduced by
Mr. Rauch, principal ef the schools, who
spoke briefly on the true aim and functien
of the school. Ho said that the Weaiherly
Behools were in excellent condition and
ranked among the very best In the county.
At the close Mr. W. H. Rauch, the princi
pal, spoke briefly on the character of educa
tion In its higher tente aa involving some
thing far more than merely a practical
knowledge of things necessary to make a
living. Education It not merely a meant
of making a living but has for Its object the
culture of the soul for its own sake.
The pupils of the senior class presented
Mr. Rauch very handsome copies of the
poems of Byron and Burns which he accept
ed with a brief, felicitous address. He said
that his relation with bis pupils, with di
rectors, fellow teachers, and citizens, had
been exceedingly pleasant during his con
nection with the schools. He said that he
hoped that his piipils might bo rewarded
for their faithfulness and diligence in school
by abundant success In after life.
At tbe close of the exercises Mr. E. P.
Williams moved that a vote of thanks be
extended to Mr. Rauch for tbe deep interest
he took in their high school in making the
first commencement such a marked success.
All the exercises Jwere frequently inter-
liersed with music, rendered by the pupils
of tbe high school. Several beautiful solos
were rendered on the organ by Miss Carrie
Tweed le.
Mr. Rauch took charge of the schools last
September. The directors raised the salary
in order to secure bis services. Efforts will
bo made to induce him to accept the posi
tion again for next year. His work gave
universal satisfaction and won for him an
enviable reputation. For the next two
months ha will take charge of a summer

The Lehigh'a Lumber Traffic.
George Lelghton, of Glenburn, who it at

Lehigh Valley Railroad Company near
White Haven, writes thus of tha lumber
business at that place: "The season for
active work in the sawmills bat fairly
opened. All of them are wirking during
f'ae daytime, and one of them at least
throujli lb night. I visited oi.e of them
for an hoar about a week ago. This mill,
though much smaller than some others here,
will saw 3,000,000 feet this season. The
White Haven mills, all told, will taw 40,'
000,000 feet before next winter closes up tbe
river. There are switches running aloag
side of these mills, and a large sbsre of tbe
sawed lumber is loaded direct from tbe
mills to the cars. The logs are brought
here all the way from Tobyhanna through

A Fatal Coal Mine Ou Explosion.
Ashland, April 30. There wat a heart
rending scene at tbe Keystone Colliery to
diy. Their men are dead and two are
dying, as the result of an explasi n Scores
of woman and children flocked to the
mountbof tbe pit, awaiting newt from be
low. Three criet were piteous, and when
the dead bodies were brought to tho sur
face the grief ef the stricken families wat
awful to look upon.
Tbe Keystone Colliery is operated by the
fnlladelpbi and Keaaing Coal and Iron
Company, aad it situated about on mile
from Ashland. It waa built in 1852, by
Donaldson & Co., and the coal and iron
company got control of it twelve years ago.
Auero are iwo aiojies, one in yards and
the other 153 yards, a total depth
of 320 yards. The workincs extend a mils
each side. Immense quantities ot gas are
generated, ana u requires an eiglity-horse-nowera
engine to keep the mine ventilated.
It has been the scene of a large number of
larnnc explosions in pan years, and the
dead ef to day ara added to a long list At
ten o'clock this morning a gang of men
were at work "skipping" pillars or remov
ing the body of coal standing between the
breasts. Suddenly a nillar started to run.
It brought with it an immense voluino of
gas.
Five men were at work in breast No. 4,
west gsngway, when the gas rushed upon
them. Their names were Andrew Jones,
August Weiker, Charles Tyler, Pat Rcaean
ond Coney Weiker. Tbo gas ign!txl,it is tu; -posed,
frm one of tbo miner's lamps. We
ker was au inexperiment miner, and in the
hurry and excitement he forgot to put out
his lamp. A terrific explosion followed,
and Reagan .Jones and Weiker were instant
ly killed. Weiker was blown a distanco or
fifty yards, and almost every light in the
mine was extinguished by the concussion.
A miner named Sweeney escaped by crawl
ing two hundred yards on bis hand aud
knees. An immense cloud of dust and
tmoka shot out at the shaft, and the shock
oi tbe explosion was felt for a mile.
On all sides intenso excitement prevailed.
Everybody knew just what bad happened,
and men, women and children seemed to
spring nut of the earth. They hurried to
the scene of the accident and crowdes
around the mouth of the pit. The exact
particulars could not be had for a time.
None knew how many unfortunate miners
wire imprisoned or dead. The women,
with blanched faces, gave way to grief in
Its most violent form. Their walls could
bo heard for a long distance. When the
first body was brought to the surface the
wildest scene ensued. Everyone crowded
about. Jones was a boy, nineteen years,
and as bis mutherbent over his blackened
form she fainted dead away. She was car
ried from the scene unconscious. Anxious
1 the crowd awaited as eaeh of the dead
dead bodies were slowly drawn to tbe sur
face and mournful precessions followed the
unfortunate men to their late hoin.es.
Weiker it seriously injured and it is
thought .that he cannot recover. Tyler's
cnndil'oi's pronounced hnpd-ss and bH
death 13 morhentarily expected. He is
shockingly burned all over. All tho men
resided around-tbe- mine and leave large
families, with the exception of Andrew
Jones. Weiker had only started to work in
the mina a few weeks ago and his careless
ness and inexperience caused the explosion.
Reagan leaves a wife and six children. Ty
ler also has a large family. The excitement
to-night is unabated and the sad affair is
the theme of conversation in the vicinity
of the mine. Terrible as the explosion was
the damage to the mine, strange U say, is
comparatively small.
A. right With Trampt-
On Tuesday morning three tramps enter
the Ebro Hotel, near Easton, and became
abusive. The proprietor, S. S. Keller,
ordered them out but they refused to go
After n scuffle in which the tramps .were
badly used they were ejected. Later they
returned and demanded drinks, which
were refused. Two. of them drew loaded
revolvers and pointed them at Mr. Keller
and pulled tbe triggers, but neither, pistol
discharged, fortunately. A .fight then en
sued and one tramp was captured. Tbe
other two fled. Tbe police were informed
and Detective Simons led a force of men to
capture the tramps. The two with three
other tramps were discovered in a railroad
cut. Tbey were all recognized as welt
known hard character! and it waa decided
to arrest them all. A ruth wat made, but
Tom Trainer, a desperado, escaped. The
other four were captured and lodged in jail
fer trial, the tramps for vagrancy, and the
two assailants for attempting to kill. The
men gave fictitious names: .
