WERE HAULED UP WITH ROPES. After the Rescuers Worked About Three Hours, John Wentz Was Lowered Three Hundred Feet by Rope and Located the Victims. Gcoigo Hughes, liro boss, and John Walton, a miner, had a thrilling experience at tho St. Nicholas colliery yostorday afternoon, and for sevon hours wero in a position In which death seemed to staro them in tho face. They woro entombed and tho volume of coal that cut off their oscapo from tho initio was so great that It was llrst feared it could not bo removed in time to save tho lives of tho two men. Happily a rescuo was (-fleeted, how ever, and neither man sustained injury of much consequence. Hughes resides at Maha noy City and Walton lives at Suffolk. The accident hy which the two men wero closed in occurred shortly before four o'clock yesterday afternoon. Walton and u man named John Wentz woro employed in limber ing a steamway downwards and reached a place where It was necessary to draw coal and culm in order to mako clear way for tho timber. The culm aud coal was wedged lu tho steamway and It was decided to uso a piece of dynamite after removing a piece of tho manway. A shot failed, and then Hughes, the flrehoss, undertook to see what could bo done towaids clearing the place. He went tipthe manway with Walton and Wcntz. and examined tho place where the dynamlto had been used and failed to do tho work de sired, As tho trio wero thus occupied there was a sudden roar and a great rush of coal lu the steamway. Wcntss was caught by the rush and swept down tho manway, but escaped njury, As soon as ho regained his feet he hurried from the plaoo and gave an alarm. At this time tho fato of tho other two men was morely a matter of speculation, and no llttlo doubt was entertained about the men boing alive. It was generally concoded that If the fall of coal crushed tho manway ungues anu waiton were Doyoutt human aid. However tho most lopeful view of tho situ ation was taken and several men commenced tho work of rescuo under tho direction of Division Superintendent Rees Tasker, Dis trict Superintendent William II. Richatds and Superintendent James P. McDonald. When the work was first started. and for soma timo after, the men could not determine whether or not the victims were alive. Haps and other methods failed In this connection. After coal and culm bad been drawn and loaded for about three hours, continuous work having beou maintained during that period, communication was opened with the entombed men, and it was learned that they wero comparatively uiilnjured. It was four hours later, or near cloven o'clock last night, however, before tho two men wero relieved from tholr perilous aud distressing position. Mine inspector William Stein, of town. visited the St. Nicholas colliery yesterday aud, although he left there as late as foui o'clock In tho afternoon, no word of tho accident had reached tho outside ollico of tho colliery up to that time. At 0:30 last evening 31 r. stein received a telogram from Superin tendent McDonald, notifying him of the accident, and Mr. Stein Immediately wont to tho scene and remained there until tho men wero rescued. Inspector Stein's official report of the affair is as follows : "Wo went down tho second outlet, or tender slopo, of tho Mammoth vein and visited tho placo in which theso men wore working, which is a new air wav driven 080 feet up from tho second lift gang way on tho Skidmore vein, at tho top of which there is a 50-foot shaft. Tho men wero ongaged in timbering from tho bottom of tho shaft downwards, aud drawing the Iooso material at tho bottom of tho second lift, keeping tho gob up to their feet. In somo way tho upper portion of the gob becamo blocked, leaving a space of 42 feet between tho lower aud upper soctions of the gob. The men weut to start this upper section, when it rushed away, sausiug the manways on either side to collapse against the ribs, and imprisoning tho men in one of tho safety holes on the west side of tho man way, which are driven 00 feet apart, and which the two men were fortunate enough in reaching. It was decided to pull tho ub out, as there wero no other meaus of com municating with tho mon. After drawing out about twenty cars of coal and other material, a consultation was held, and Juhn Wentz was Instructed to go up to the second outlet and through tho cross hole communi cating the Skidmore with the Mammoth vein, to try and reach tho men. A ropo was attached to Wcntz's body and he was lowered about 300 feet. At this point Weutz called to tho imprisoned men aud got a response that they wero alive and well. Messrs. Tasker, Bichards aud Stein, with a corps ot fire bosses from the neighboring collieries and other workings, went to assist in hoisting up tho men with ropes, which wero attached about tho bodies of ihe latter. Much credit is duo Wcntz for tho cool Judicious and heroic efforts ho put forth in connection with the rescue." lllckert's Cnte, Bean soup, free, to-night. Fish cakes to morrow morning.

Judge Endllch, at Reading, gave an opinion of much interest to saloon-keepers and others. A man purchased a saloon from another and conducted the business before tho license was transferred. Judge Endllch said : "A license to sell liquors is only given to a man as a certificate as to his fitness to sell the same. No one has tho right to mako a trausfer of this license but tho court. Otherwise a man could secure a license on April 1 aud ou April 2 hand it over to somo persons who probably had been rejected by the court.

You can save dozens of lives on five cents a day. Oh, tho utter woe of the hos pitals, the helplessness of them. Men us bright, us noble as God ever made, given up to death, hoping for It, seek ing It, taking poison, doing anything that will end the despair that comes upon them. No wonder there are six or seven funerals a day. No wonder the dendhnuse is never empty. "And outside the hospitals, and even In It, such Indifference. Petty consid eration of rank and portion, squabbles about precedence, lack of consideration In prescribing and preparing food. while men are dying, not merely of heart hunger, but for want of nour ishment. "I do not mean that attendants of the hospitals are careless or Indifferent. Many are trying to do their best. There are a lot of worthiness and unselfish ness among the attendants at the hos pitals. Dut there Is so much Inexperi ence, so many clogs to those who would do much. To think of an attendant going through the ward with a pall of lieef broth, ladling It out to the DO or CO patients indiscriminately by the cup full. In the whole pail there was not enough nourishment for one, even If It were made of the best material. In a whole ward there Is not more than one nurse with experience, and for helpers only one or two awkward boys who perhaps never saw a sickroom be fore."
