PLYMOUTH, March J 2—At 10:30 to -night the first victim of tho Gay lord disaster was found lying on his face in nineteen feet of coal. At 1 o'clock two more bodies were reach ed and all were brought to the sur face. Mrs. Walsh, whose husband wr.a among the thirteen unfortunate men, believed that one of the three bodies is that of her husband. It. is believed that the bodies of the entire thirteen men will be brought up be fore to morrow morning. From the time that an undertaker's wagon drove up early this morning with a load of coflins until the pres ent hour, midnight, the crowds have been about the mouth of the mine clamorously demanding news of every advance made by the band of rescuers. The coffins arrival aroused the report that the officials were trying to spirit the dead men away. Deni als of the officials had no effect and } rumors of the discovery of tho men I brought throngs from all parts of the valley. THE FIRST ENCOURAGEMENT. Late Saturday night a miner's empty lamp and cap gave the band of rescuers their first real encour agement and gave them a new zeal for the work of clearing the most difficult part of their path. The gangway to-night was choked with debris and earth nineteen feet in height ami fifteen feet wide. As the night wore on with only the monotonous sounds of the pick, the spade and the propping as the day had done the hundred of watch ers relapsed into a grim silence which was broken only at intervals. riKST BODY POTSD. At 10:30 a shout of joy thrilled tho silent crowd and when the fact that the victims had been reached was shouted up the shaft pandenio- ! nium reigned. The relatives of the entombed miners shrieked for defl nitc news of their beloved and the less interested spectators pushed and jostled themselves into the best |>osilions for a sight at the bodies of tboat.* entombed, The h<>• of the first man found WHS SO hidden by I lie con I that lie could not be UltnlifUd The body was Much tlecoui|HMMi| and had been crushed by the tall of coal.

Campbell and wife are visit ing friends near Philadelphia. J. P. Kilmer & Son. have removed their sawmill from Piatt to Sluink where the}' will saw out a stocK of logs for Richard Swingle. W. E. Porter, proprietor of old Shunk Hotel, lias removed to a new house on West street, where he is prepared to accommodate the public and serve warm meals at all hours. It. S. Fanning contemplates going to Michigan next month to visit a sister. Should he like it there, he will remain all summer. Frank B. Warren created, we think, a periodical sensation on South street the next morning after returning from court, by trying to throw his father in law cut on the charities of the public, but by the timely interference of Mrs. Warren, and the good judgment she practic ed the old man in his infancy of 85 years, who had given her, her home. Many good wishes to her. Then ho tried to compel a divorce suit, but as night drew on he got quiet. "For the son of man hath not where to lay his head." ZERO. SOXESTO TFJV ITEMS. Ilev. Leply is attending conference this week. Every thing is moving along quiet ly as usual. Our merchants are having, we think, their share of trade. Rev. W. J. Campbell has been re turned to this circuit for another year. The weather is very fine down here, and the birds have been sing ing for some time. The jurymen from this place at our last court., report a very short, and easy court on jurors. We lnye seen several long trains, lately, going over tho \V. & N. B, The longer ones go South. A. T. Armstrong has moved his portable sawmill to Alfred Taylors, and is doing some sawing for him. There is a protracted meeting in progress, in town, now, at the M. E. church, and it is being successful. We notice that Bodine & Warn are giving tickets for all cash pur chases of one dollar, for the drawing of a fine clock. The E. M. It. 11. Co. is about done | hauling the Lyon Lumber Co's. i logs for tliis season. Several of the j j young men of this place are 'on the ; drive." Our late election is over and some persons did not make the points they i wished to and others did, and so it ever goes. Some happy and others disappointed. S. Meu's women's and children's rubbers of all sizes at Joba Pinkie's, the Laporte boot and shoe mail John offers them reason able. It' in need of rubbers for yourself or the little ones, go look them over. Pennsylvania has (17 counties Center, with an area of 12,27 square miles being the largest.
