on the south coiridor.' Mast, evening, .when.
~
the keepers Made their usual'rounds, Snyder
Was In good healtli and apparently In gotid
spirits, The murder which he committed of the most atrocious .on record, and Since
„
tbe time the deed was perpetrated Snyder has
,itlioncaL‘theLgreatest-indifference' to - his - f
still ; there has not been. the least supposition •
that he would take his own life. • '
• This morning, abaut tWenty minutes befoie
eiglit o'clock, Keeper Grubb entered the call
of Snyder for,the purpose of Oving him his
breakfast.:; He then discovered that. the = prt's
isoner was dead.. In ; each of the,cells there is:
a bucket of water for the y , prisoners to use
when bathing tliernselyes.. , , Snyder had lain
down, on the floor, placed his. head over the,
• bucket, So that his neck rested on the
edge and his 'face :was , in the
water. lie had taken, the mattress from the
bunk board, and the latter he. drew up and'
laid across his shoulders and head; in such a
manner as to keep his bead in the bucket. In'
this way he 'was evidently suffocated. Tlds
manner of committing suicide ,is novel, and
shows that there was great determination:
upon the part of the miserable wretch to: ake
Ins own life, and thus relieve the Sheriff of a
very unpleasant task. .
Coroner Daniels was notified of the occur
rence, ,summoned a,jury, and proceeded:to the •
Irison for the purpose of holding an inquest
n the case. -
The jury visited the cell and found the body,
of Snyder in the position which we have de
scribed
The allowing,evidencewas elicited
Wm. B. Grubb, • keeper, testified—This;
morning,about as!minutesbefore eight o'clock,
I Went to Snyder's - cell and found him dead;
he was visited by Ins wife last night she_
"said that it was probably the last time that she,
would see him; she. pitied, the Carter family,
and reProaehed her husband for • hav
ing committed the ••thurder ; she at-.
tributed • the , act to the pistol
being in the house; 'and said that at one time
she had had the pistol taken away; as she was
afraid that her husband contemplated suicide;,,
the- thicket was one•used' byl the prisoner to

ten o'clock ,• Snyder appeared to be composed;
he told me that he forgot to tell his wife about'
a DuildingAsseciation, • • -
Wm. B.Perk - ins, Superintendent, testified--
On Monday I saw Snyder -in his cell; be told
me that he - had dine the killing in excitement;
saw him,again yesterday morning ; this'morn:
jag I was called; found him, dead in the : cell;
t he doctor examined and'pronounced him,
dead; we let the body remain in the same con
dition until the Coroner' Came ; We never open
the cells at night unless sothe alarm is given, as
it is not considered safe; the keepers- are in-'
strutted never to . go to 'cells at night:single=

Dr. Silas Updegrove testified-31ade a post
mortera examination of the deceased ; opened
me cavity of the chest and examined the
lungs; found them.very much congested, pre
senting such evidence of strangulation or suf
focation as is found in a case of drowning ;
the heart was in a sound and natural condi
tion ; the deceased came to his death from
drowning. ,
Dr. ihdcher, Assistant Physician at the
prison, testi tied to_ _having . examined Snyder
between seven and eight o'clock, and found
that he was dead. ---
This eloSedthOtestimony t and thejur;.-agreed
upon the following - verdict : .
'That Joseph Snyder mine' to • his death by

.The Scene of the Disaster. •
aletorrespondent of the New liurk:Times,
46100 -- •
''-- The scene of this fiatafftrOphe;miparalleled in
the -, bistoxy. of American, ,is on the.
Lackawanna and 'Bloomsburg Railroad,
tWelitV-two miles from Scranton, about six
from l iVilkesbarre, and about one and a half
beltrti the hamlet of Plymouth. The shaft is
'sunk in the side of a steep mciiintain, is
'feet deep and 40 feet below •the mountain;
'has -' ; n tunnel opening into which it
is dug through the mountain. The main' gang
ways of the mines are nearly east and west
from the shaft, the first being about 1,200 feet
,fin length and the latter about 800. Both east
andivest the inclines are upward, and the
gangways about ten feet in -the clear. The
sides of theshaft are lumbered with wooden
flxt.ures. The great woodenbuildingiti which
Was:the breaking machinery was immediately
:upon the, mouth, and • all of this inflammable
-material was dry as tinder. 'lf a spark of
fire touched any of this wood anywhere, even
outside the mine,a great conflagration was
ovitable r and its communication to the in
terior.qf the shaft and mine almost certain; to
these facts must be added that the mine bad
no • air-hole district from the shaft.. The
miners, working far down in the bowels of
'of thew earth, had but one aperture by which
to secure egres.4 to • the suilace; 'that out off,
.the wholesale destruction of human life which
bas - occurred was sure to happen.
• lam informed that very few of the mines
have been designed to prove, like Avondale, a
h orrible sepulchre from a trivial cause, but are
generally provided with air boles, separate
from, the shaft, so that the miners, cut oft' by
, any disaster from the one, can have recourse
other as a means of , escape. •

Chronicle? •
The leave-alone principle, admirable as'it is;
May be pushed too far. Selfishness gives rise
more frequently to a heartless economy, .than
to th'e prudent'and merciful economy which
rates the value of human life as at least equal
to that DOl:lining propeity. The slowness of
moat-ownemin England in adopting means of
providin e ,crincreased i safety to miners, led to
the,'appointment - of government in
spec-tors—scientific and trustworthy men,
invested with - authority to inspect the
mines, to ',r,eport on their conaition,
and to enforce whatever iniprovements may
be required to. increase their safety. Is nut
some similar step:desirable in Pennsylvania?
Only in this manner does it seem possible to
guard against calamities which judicious
management would either altogether avert
_or render._ comparatively_ trifling. ,The coal
mining interest contributes not a little to the
brospenty . of the State. Nay not the State
e asked in return to provide by legislation
for the increased protection of the miners, and
the improved working of the mines?

without which the:
*finest, , organ, conveys: the ,itapression: of:
hardness. Her voice, in short, is. - ;.ma
simpathetie, and lacking ,- this . quality,
the singer fails •to touch, her hearers ,
with' a feeling of, -her • ;earnestness end'
sincerity. Miss Ellemtan has' this deficienci
also in her acting.' She, is too tamel:shet has_
iiiTt - inotigh animation, spirit, energy for the
stage. She 'stands afxsolutely still and sings at
the audience as if she , -- it,•erie apupil Practising
an exercise. She has yet to learn the ,details
of stage business, and the necessity for at least
AP assumption of, eager interest in the work in
which OUSis engaged. If she,would succeed at
all, she must learn the art ofhistrionism, with
its demands for constant action, invenrion of
bye-play, and its requirement that the, player
shall , lose her individuality in her as
sumed (ammeter. ' This is quite as im
portant on the lyric stage as in
an ordinary theatre. Indeed, ati n diences, axe
likely" to pardon very defective vocalization
they are entertained by the good-. acting, of
the singer. We say these things with the
kindest feeling for Miss. Ellerxnan, knowing
well that indiscreet and unmerited eulogy
now will do her infinitely more harm than a
plain statement of the truth, which may incite
her to exertion to overcome her deficiencies.
We cannot attribute her want of vivacity to
unusual embarrassment, for, as well as we
could perceive, she did not suffer from this in
any degree. She did not act well because she
did not know bow. We recommend to her
a careful study of the methods of Der
. ,
.nard, who is a first rate actress. Miss Eller- ;
man's best vocal performance was her singing
of the first'aria in the bed-room scene. ,For

In'this performance, Mr. Brookhouse Bow
ler also made his first appearance in this city
in English opera. .Musical people know him
as the gentleman who accompanied. Mad.
Parepa-Rosa in her recent concert tour. He
has a tenor voice of Moderate compass, of
light calibre, and of 'very good quality. It
is somewhat rongh at times,' but . it is well
trained',' and' under such control that Ats best
points are arrays the mcire peicePtible. `,;l:tr.
