MINE TRAGEDY.
THE SCRANTON TRIBUNE-MONDAY, OCTOBER 21. 1898.
One Man Killed nnrt Another Badly
Injured.
A terrible calnstrophe. In which one
man lost hlfl llfo nml another one- wni
badly Injured, occurred In this cltv Sat
urday night. Thoinna Kittle. Junior
JIcDonoush, Robert Judsc and Joseph
AVIsley were cnprnirrd nil dny Saturday
In tlmheilnu' tho loot nf tho mine on
the south side, called No, 1 slope.
TJio recent rains had loosened the
earth and caused tho roof to wnl.
menncltiB tho nikintn. Mho niton d
tho mine. The men had been woikln.?
In the Interior ot the mine In the morn
ing and townrds evening' In gun opein
tlons near the mouth of the Hlnpe, not
fifteen feet awuy fiom the du light.
They could see and hear plainly the
voices of Hip men outside the mine.
At about twenty mlnutet nftrr T
o'clock tho roof began working, nnd
Mlthout any warning ppcinl tons of
dirt fell upon tho unfortunate men.
Judge received much of the eaith upon
him, hut WnH protected by the timber
ing Mhlch fell over him nnd shielded
Ills body. The llm held held to their
fnotonlngs on one .side, whllo one end
fell upon the rails which run Into tho
slope. It Is due to thin oin umstntieo
that Judge owes his life, fnt h.id the
timbers given away at both end ho
would undoubtedly h:io been ci unhod
to death. As It Is, he was ciushcd bad
ly, hut unless ho Is Intel n.illy Injmed
ho will recover In a short time. Joi-eph
Wlsloy, his fellow-worker, was not fo
fortunate, for he lecelved lili cleath
IiIom A heavy rail, that had been
placed ncrohs the loot to preent Its
caxlng, fell nnd struck him ncioss the
neck, pinning him to the giounl. The
debris weighed sn heavily on the rail
as to choke tho unfortunate miner to
death.
When Ire was taken to the biufnee
life was extinct. Some person1 entet
taln the Idea that his neck was broki n,
but the general opinion Is that his
breathing was shut off by the weight ot
the iall upon his neck. The othei two
miners luckily cstniod any Injury
vhatePi, as they were not engaged
under the loot at the point where It
fell. A wife nnd sK chlldien Mitvlve
'Air. AVlsloy, who was it prominent
member of the C jj. 15. A. and the
I'loneer Father Mnthew societies
NOT A JUDGE OF WEIGHTS.
On m count of his not being able to
tell the difference hot wen a pound and
two pounds, between n basket contain
ing thlity pounds and another which
held sixty pounds. V. V. Fuller, of this
city, was anested In Scr.intou W. J.
Itoberts. of that city, sold Mr. Fuller
thlrtv pounds of llsh last week and set
It aside to aw nit his calling for it. Ful
ler came, took ui a basket containing
slty pounds and left the store with
out being obsercd by tho propiletor,
who wus othei wipe engaged. However,
lr. Hobetts noticed the mor after the
local fishmonger had left, niv1 I IUlng
It to lie intentional on Full 'it. he
had lilni aucsud and ih ' i man
held him undei thiee huutte' dollar.-t
ball Mr. Fallot Instituted a counter
suit charging Rolioits with porjuiy,
on which Aldeiman Kelly, of Scranton,
held him undei three hundred dollars
ball.
NINTH AVENUE.
AVoik on the Imniovement of Xlnth
avenue, which had come to a stand
still lecently. through a disagreement
of the city and Mis Tlmmous. whoso
propel ty was nlTocteil by the widening
of the street, Is again under way. The
m has ghen a bond to tho amount of
one thousand dollais, ngieelng to pav
upon the completion of the street, tho
amount awarded by the oui t. The
vlev.tr". allowed Mis. Tlmmous two
hundred dollais, hut she ronsldeis this
amount far below a fair estimate of
the worth of the pioptrty the lty se
em es.
THE BBICK HAS ARRIVED.
The vitrified biick to be used In the
completion of the paving of Itlvcr
street has ai rived and operations will
begin on that thornughfiuc tomorrow.
T5y the delay In the shipment of the
brick tho work has been delayed sev
eral days, although It is a singular fact
that It rained so hard almost every
ono of those dajs as to cause bricklay
ing impossible. The paving wll'. bo
rushed fiom now on and will probably
be finished long befoie the snow Hies.

festivities. After the menu had been
thoroughly discussed, a litciary pro

toasts icsponded to by tho piomiuout

The meinheis of Companlis C and II
were examined lajt Saturday and yes
terday, and all nirancetnents ate now
about completed to muster out tho bojs

after her Injuries weie attended to she
was conveyed to her home.
The death of John Powell, nnother
member of Company C, occuued Sat
urday night at tho home of his patents,
on Philadelphia avenue. The deceased
had been sick In tho regiment hnspltul
at Chleknmauga before the boys weie
fuiloughed, hut two weeks ago was
again stricken with typnoia rever,
loupled with gastric fever, and be had
not the strength to balllo tho same and

Louis Kester nnd family, who icsldo
In Plttstou township, had a nanow es
cape with their lives at an enilj hour
on Saturday morning, when they were
awakened from their slumbets, sur
rounded bv (lames. They made their
escape from a second-story window,
and all that was saved were thdr
nlghtUothes. The houso was humeri to
tho giound, together with Its contents,
and besides a loss of $1,G00.
It Is more than probablo that this
dty will, before many months, have tho
pleasuro of boasting of a first-class
theatre, and w hen this lias become a
fact, nnd tho bulldlnir completed, we
will then have an oportunlty of wit
nesslng some of the pet formances that
are glen In tho flrst-clahs play-houses
of Scranton and Wllkea-Barre. Mr.
Uurgunder, who has charge of tho the
atres In both the above jetties, will be
the propiletor, and tho slto of tho now
building will probably bo between the
A. H Iirown and Coicoran blocks, on
North Main street.
Thu hoirlblo condition of tho streets
on tho West Side has resulted In a
growing sentiment among the pioperty
owners over thero that the main nve
nuts nf the borough should bo paved
with some sort of substantial pave
mont, At piesont the approach to the
Water sticot bridge lias been paved
with Ilulglnn block.

Sketches of sermons preached In the
Piesbyteilan churrh, Peckvllle, Sun
day, Oct. L'J, by ltov. S. 11. Jloon, D. D.,
pastor:
Jlornlng seimon Test, Acts, C-32:
"And we are witnesses of theso things,
and so Is also tho Holy Ghost, whom
God hath given to them that obey him."
The subject of this text may In called
tho spirits' amen to our witnessing for
Chi 1st. Ah the bplrlt-hiled Chilsllnn
preaches, Clnist, the Holy Spirit,
preaches with and In nnd through him,
to the heareis.
Our woik for Christ Is that of
nesslng. Wo are not to bo advocates
nor pleadeis; wo arc slmplv to bear
witness to what wo have seen and
heard and known of Jesus Christ. Tho
testimony is about Chilst.' If wo wan
der off to other subjects, and preach
politics and science and philosophy, and
seek to air our own opinions, we shall
have to preach alone. Put If wo con
fine ourselves to our commission, the
spit it will ghe his powerful amen to
all we say Without the- spit It's aid,
tho most learned nnd eloquent anil
Scrlptuial seimon lias only a human
power. Uut with tho spirit's concur
lent wltncslng, the testimony of the
feeblest saint has the might of divin
ity In it. Hett Is the pledge and as
surance of success to every Christian
who witness a for years to the one
who gives his humble testimony in a
Player meeting, or gHes a word of com
fott to iho afflicted, or tremblingly
teaches a Sunday school class, or
speaks a word In duo season to tho un
saved. It is not ha that speaks, but
the Holy Ghost that speaks In him, and
his woid shall piosper In the thing
whereto tho spliit sends It.
Kvenlng soi mon Text, I Cor., 124:
"Uut unto them which aro called, both
Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of
God and the wisdom of God." The
Greek was, in Paul's daj, the common
language of the Roman empire, and nil
who were not Jews weie called Gteeks,
or Gentiles. The Jews and the Greeks
coniptlsed all men, in tho plnaseology
of tho day. Paul preaches, therefore,
In this text tho all-sulllclency of tho
gospel of Christ.
The gospel Is the good news about
Jesus Chilst, or fiom Jesus Clnist. It
is the way of sanation, through faith
In Christ.
Tho gospel Is tho power of God.
When Paul preached It, It was mighty
to tin pulling down of strongholds. It
Is mighty still, Kvcry weapon used
against It is biokcn, but It lemalns.
"The hammeis are- broken,
The anvil remains."
Consider these to whom the gospel Is
elllcaelous. It is the wisdom and power
of Clod tothoce who aro called of God.
God Is a soveielgn, nnd tho gospel Is
saving to those who are effectually
called. It Is necessary that wo should
understand this, pai tleulaily In theso
days, when tho doctilns of fieo grace
nro so falthfullv preached, and the doc
tilnes of the divine sovereignty aio so
faithfully impreached, or Ignored. Hut
wo must ina'io our calling and election
suie, and unify God's election by our
ow n free will nnd choice.
Tho gospel is, also, the wisdom and
power of God to those who believe
Itomans, 1:16. Hero we stand on
familiar ground. Kverythtng In the
Chilstlan life comes to us by faith. Do
not adulterate the gospel. As it stands,
It Is perfect and entire, wanting noth
ing, and its author is able to present
thoso who ipcolve it, "faultless before
the iiresence of his glory with exceed
ing Joy."
