Conlinutd jrom First Xtge.) southwardly, is the Salem vein, In which the victims worked. Fourteen men work ing for Contractor Joseph Dolan in tho face of tho tunnel, 1,-500 feet south ol tho death scene narrowly escaped tho fate of tho unfortunates. Some of thorn were knocked off tholr feet by the shock of the explosion, but none wero 'injured. In making a dash to escape the deadly after damp they had a thrilling experionco. They wero led by Foreman Goorge Tiorny. They mado a dash for the slope. Ab they approached tbo sceno ol dleastor they mot a barrier. The mine had boon closod by the explosion. The men wero already suffering from foul air on account of the compressed air connections boing broken. The escape of tbo men had apparently been cut off by the gangway in tho Salem voin closing in. Tho timbors had been blown out and the top coal had fallen. Aftor a scramblo over the heap of debris a hole largo onough to admit tho passage of a man's body was found at the top of the fall. This means of egress saved thorn- After reaching the surfaco tho men vomitod for some timo. Somo of them wero in a critical condition for sovoral hours. .Most of tho bodies recovered were literally roasted and wore unrecognizable. One body was headless and the ontraiis of young Jones were missing. Kriso's body was bootless and nearly all the men wero aked. Those who wero carriod out tho mines alive suffered terrible agony. The body oi the fire bosf, John Harrison, was found at C o'clock last ovening. It was under tons of debris and was a shapo loss mass. It was tho eighth body re covered. Up to a late hour last night Honicker's body had not been recovered. Uonickor and Thomas Llewellyn worked in breast No. 1, in the Salem voin, on the second lovel. The broaet Is immediately below the place where the other men lost thoir lives and it is believod that the gas was ignited in No. 1. Honickor and Llewollyn fired a blast in tho face of their breast at 9:26 a. m. A heavy outburst of gas followod the firing of tbo shot. Lle wellyn at once loft tho breast to inform fire bos John Gibbons. Honickor went into a eading to await Llewellyn's return. Jutt a tbo latter found Gibbons, which was about five minutes after tbe shot was firod, tho explosion took place. The explosion was aB destructive in tho second level as it was in tho first. Tho pillars wero started in tho second lovel and the bteasts wore filled. Yesterday miners reached tho heading into which Honicker went whon Llewellyn left him, hut he could not be found. Uo is supposed to bo buried under the coal. Two of tho victims, tho Allotts, father and son, were the solo support of tho mother and eight children. They moved from .Mahanoy City to Pottsvillo three weeks ago. The family suffered from tho flood at tho former place and is in needy circumstancos. Tho funerals of two of the victims, Curran and Lauders, took place to-day. The romains were interred in No. 2 and and No. 3 cemetorlos, Pottsvillo.

Tbo sermon in the Jlothodist Episcopal church on Sunday ovening was on "Tho Straight and Narrow Way." "Enter ye in at tbo straight gate: for wide Is the gate, and broad is tho way, that leadoth to destruc tion, and many there be which go in threat: Becauso straight is tho gate and narrow is the way which leadoth unto life, and few there be that find it." Matt. VII-13-14, Tho chargo is ofton mado that the church is narrow and illiberal, Those who persist in following the teachings, ol tho word of God concerning the encroach ments of sin and Satan upon tho roligious life of the ago aro often snoorod at and denounced as Puritans as though a thing could not be puritanical and at tbe same timo right. Wo dare not mako tho way of truth any broader than Christ made it nor be ourselves moro liberal than was H$. He is not a liberal but a troachorous man who removes bis neighbor's landmark in order to enlarge his own possessions. The broad way with its wido Rate through which tho crowds are surging is tbe way of destruction. Christians need nothing more than they noed the courago to assert thoir faith in this part of their creed When men aro stigmatizing the sturdy morality of tho Gospel and socking to lower its standard and to destroy its tone it is high timo for christians and churches to maintain it at its topmost limit, and to acknowledge the narrowness of tho way of lifo and be content with it, injtoad ol trying to widen It out until thoy come so near merging it into the way of death as to render the difference between them invisi ble. When religion is made so attractive to unrenowed naturos that it requires no self denial to be roligious." They may as well havo no religion as that kind. It requires neither sense n0r grace to follow tho multitudo. Men may stumble through thn wide gato of the broad way. But it requires intelligent and well directed effort to enter tho straight gato of tho narrow way. The very lan- guago implies tho difficulty of finding It. iVnd when once it Is found we muBt "strive' to enter it. This word borrowed from tbe athletic exercises of the Greeks speaks to us of the agonizing struggle with sin and self in which wo may have to engage before we can so much as "enter the gate " This explains why there be so "few that find it." They havo no love for the sub lime morality it demands. Tho spacious way of destruction is so much more in viting to carnal hearts. Tho wholo trouble is an unwillingness to pay thocost. Unlesb wo deny ourselves and take up our cross- not as an ornament but as an instrument of death to self we cannot bo Christ's dis ciplos. Christ Himself is the way. Hois the door. Through Him alono wo havo access to the way of life. The way is broad enough for all who will comply with the conditions of entrance. It is broad en ugh for any sinner but not for his sin. 1 Buy Keystone flour, name Lkssio & Co., printed on every sack.
