OVER 100 WERE KILLED

PENNSYLVANIA MINERS SUFFER INSTANT ANNIHILATION. Not a Man Escaped—Fire Damp the Awful Agent—A Carload of Coffins Needed — Appeal lor Help—Terrific Scenes at the Mine. , [Youngwood (Pa.) dispatch.] By au explosion of gas at Mtmmoth Mines No. 1, 110 men were killed. Sixtyfive bodies wore recovered. The mine is on fire, and it is believed the unfortunate dead will be cremated before it is possible to reach them. An army of men is at work in the pit endeavoring to stay the tire and recover, the dead bodies. They are making little headway, however. A car-load of coffins was received this evening. One hundred and ten men were employed in that part of the mine in which the explosion occurred, and not one was left to tell the story of the disaster. Not more than fifty men were killed by the explosion. The others were overcome by the after-damp. While some of the bodies were horribly burned, torn, and mutilated, others were found with their teeth clinched on the iron rail of the pit road. Othei'3 were found with their faces plunged into the water. Not a few knelt as if in prayer when their untimely end came. Fire-boss, Sneath was identified only by his gum-boots. He must have been nearest the explosion. His body was scattered about in dozens of pieces. His head was pulled from his shoulders. Both his legs were torn off. His clothing was ripped into shreds. That part of his body recovered was roasted and blackened. His mutilated body wa3 found where the explosion is supposed to have occurred. His safety lamp was shattered into- numberless pieces. His left hand clutching his lamp was found over one hundred feet from the trunk of his body, and one of his gum-boots was found fifty yards away. One of his feet with part of the leg attached was picked up. When the parts of his body were collected and sent in a sheet to the pit mouth they were identified by an engineer who recognized the gum-boots. All the officials of the Fricke Coke Company are in the dark as to the cause of the explosion. Fire-Boss Sneath inspected the mine before work was begun this morning, and his written report, filed*few hours before be was killed, sets forth that the mine was safe at that time. When the volunteers entered the mine a sight impossible to picture met them. Bank cars, mules, and—more terrible than all—men were piled in a compact mass against the ribs or wails of coal, and not allying thing was in the wreckage. It was almost as solid as the coal itself, so terrific was the force of the explosion. This obstruction was removed with difficulty, and they entered a chamber of horrors. The first object they discovered after leaving the main entry was a gum boot. In it was the leg of a man. Farther on they found a human head, but nowhere in sight was the trunk that had borne it but a few minutes before. After walking a distance, surrounded by dangers unseen, but more terrible than can be imagined, they found the trunk. The ragged neck with the blood oozing from it told the story of the appalling disaster. Working their way in, the band found the bodies strewn along the gangway. Every man in the headings where the explosion occurred was killed. None were injured and lived. Dead bodies were brought up every few minutes, and the crowd at the shaft mouth simply fell back to allow the men carrying the stretchers room to pass. Every corpse was covered, and no one even ventured to inquire which body it was, for it was known that every one in that part of the mine at the time of tfce -explosion was dead. General Manager Lynch of the H. G PriCke Coke Company is on the scene helping to devise means to rescue the ■perished workmen. His assistance is invaluable, as he has many years’ experience in mining operations. The mammoth plant embraces 509 ovens, one of the largest plants in the coke regions, but it is hard of access. It is situated near the United Works, where an explosion recently destroyed the entire sltaft. The affair has cast a gloom over the entire coke region, and to-night hundreds of miners are flocking to tbe scene of the disaster offering assistance. The ■appalling loss of life in the Dunbar disaster is more than overshadowed by the destruction of life in this mummoth calamity. Language is too weak to describe the scenes at the mines. Horror is piled on horror. The news spread throughout the entire coke region and everybody was awe-stricken. The •only man who escaped was Mine Boss Eaton. Among those killed are John Beverage and J. Boles, formerly of this place. The former resided here for many .years .and was held in high esteem fry everybody. He was a roadman isa the shaft. Ex-Mjine Inspector Keighly, the Superintendent of the fatal shaft, is nearly distracted. It is a singular fact that misfortune seems to have followed him. His experience in the Hill Farm ■disaster resulted in his tendering has resignation as anino inspector. Master Workman Peter Wise addressed the following letter to the miners and •cokers of the -region to-night: To tbe Members s>! tbe Knights of Labor and Workingmen of the Coke Region: The sad news .erf a disastrous explosion at Mammoth mines has just reached me, and I fear many lamiilies have been left destitute. I therefore .appeal to you to promptly render What aid you .can to assist the families of yomr brethren who have teen killed. The Master Workman and committees at each works will kindly take the matter in band and act as a relief committee. Let the committee select a “ check member,” and each miner run as many wagons as he can «nder the circumstances contribute, and arrangements will be made with the companies to pay tbe amount, and thus prompt aid can bo gives. Drawers can adopt the same plan, and day men can contribute from their day’s work, and have tb4 same deducted in the office. This aid will be separated and apart from any public cos.trl but ions, and will be forwarded to district officers, who will apply it to the relief of those for whom it fe contributed.

WINDOM DROPPED DEAD

HE SUDDENLY EXPIRES AT A NEW YORK BANQUET; Tragic Cicumstauces of His Taking 6ffHo Concludes a •" peecli, Requests .Silence, and Falls a Corpse-His Was a Noble Life—A Brief Biography. [New York dispatch.] The Hon. William Windom, Secretary of the Treasury of .the United States, died tonight at 10:”5 o’clock in the banquet ball at

SECRETARY WM. WISDOM.

annual dinner, and the great gold halTwas bright with light and .cole r. And feasting there was happy and unrestrained, but death too, sat at tbe board, und the only soufthat flowed out was that of the nation’s financial head. His spirit fled away at the close of his speaking, which was tbs first of the night, and th e last. The dinner, which began at 6 o'clock, was completed shortly after 9 o’clock, and Mr. Windom, introduced by Judge Arnoux, arose to speak, being the first speaker of the evening. He responded to the toast: “Our Country’s Prosperity Dependent Upon Its Instruments of Commerce.” He finished his speech at 9:55 o’clock. It had been remarked that be was reading it off hurriedly from the printed copy, going faster and faster as he neared the end, and at last be requested the audience not to applaud. A quiver of fear shot through the assemblage, like an electric shock, when he finished. Mr. Window was standing erect under the glare of the gas-lights, while the faces of the most famous body of men in the country all turned toward him. Something was the matter, they knew not what. For a moment the Secretary of the Treasury stood silent, while the banqueters, equally silent "watched him. It was a moment that no one who was prosent will ever forget. Then Mr. Windom sat down quietly, too quietly many thought, in his seat, and Toastmaster Judge Arnoux arose to Introduce ex-Secretary of State Bayard as the next speaker. He began a sliort speech, but had not proceeded far when Mr. Windom gave a short, sharp moan of anguish and fell back in his chair. His face grew purple; his lower limbs stiffened and stretched out, of their own a:cord'apparently, under the table; his eyelids opened and shut spasmodically, but there was no gleam of Intelligence In the eyes, which were rapidly losing the luster of life. For only a moment he appeared thus. A cry went up from those sitting near the guest table. “Look!* Look at Mr. Windom!” Every eye was turned toward the man whose voice had just ceased upon the air. At the rear of the hall many stood, and many echoed the cry that Mr. Windom had collapsed in his chair and was falling to the floor. His faco was ghastly, and a cry of horpor arose from the late festive banqueters. There was an immediate rush on the part of all toward Mr. Wlndom’s chair, but several doctors who were present at the dinner got there first and drove the others back. They were Drs. 8. A. Robinson, Durant, Whitney, Fisher, and Bislfop. Dr. Robinson bent down, and making a close examination of the prostrate form, discovered that the heart°was yet beating, and with the assistance of Judge Truax. Captain Snow, and one or two others, lifted him to his feet, deathly pale. He was c.irried Into the room Behind the banquet hall, and everything was done to resuscitate him. Messengers were hastily dispatched for electric batteries, and as nanny as four were applied to his body, which was rapidly growing oold. This was»exactly at 10.>05 p. *». For six minutes the electric shocks were applied Incessantly, but without success. He was then pronounced dead by Drs. Robinson aaad Durant. “I would say that the cause of his death was apoplexy.” said Dr. Robinson, “if it was not for the history of heart disease. lam inclined to think that heart disease killed him. Mr. Windom was subject to fits of heart failure. On Tuesday last be was seized with an attack while on tbe steps of the Treasury at Washington, but ho did not lose consciousness, and was able to take care of Jilmself. ” At aOsJl p. m. Judge Arnornx came out of the room where lay Mr. Windom and announced to the diners that Secretary Windom, whom they lmd the pleasure of hear-ing-only a few minutes before, had breathed his last. "He is dead,” he said. This was the'fearful announcement, uttered In a voice midway between .a sob and a whisper, through that ga.vly bedecked banquet hall, around which stiil hung, like a funeral pall, the smoke of the after-dinner cigar. “He is dead!” The words went to tbe heart of every man who heard them. Could they believe it? That the brilliant oratorof afew minutes before, that glowed with enthusiasm in predicting his future poll :y in the Treasury, was now only inanimate clay. His voice was forever silenced, and his last.words were for his countrv. Every mam looked at his neighbor with blanched cheeks. Death hau indeed been with them at their feast, and taken from tbe throng one of the nation’s chief officers. William Windom, Secretary of the Treasury, was born in Belmont County. Ohio. May 10, 1827.. His parents had immigrated to that region from Virginia. He was brought up on a farm, was educated in the academy at Mt. Vernon. Ohio, studied law, and was admitted., to practice in 1850. He became PrbeeeuHng Attorney for Knox County in 1852. In 1855 lie settled In Winona, Minn. Joining the Republican party, he gain® A. reputation as an orator, and in 1858 was sent to Congress. He was a member of the House of. Representatives for ten years, serving on,the Committees on Public Lands and Expenditure, and on the srecial committee on the rebellious States, and Tor three years as Chairman of the Committee on Indian Affairs. He was appointed United States Senator in 1879 to fill an unexpired term, and was afterward eiected for a new term and re-elected In 1877. In 188Fhe resigned on being selected by President Garfield for the post of Secretary of the Treasury. He resigned when Vice President Arthur succeeded to the Presidency, and engaged in railroad and other financial enterprises, making his horife principally In New York, until he was appointed Secretary of the Treasury by President Harrison March 4, 1489.

A Strange Kleptomanlac.

A man was arrested recently in the ac* oLstealing a pocket handkerchief from a lady. He was formerly a well-to-do baker in a suburb, when the mania seized him of collecting ladies’ cambric handkerchiefs. He would accost a lady in the streot and ask her to sell him her handkerchief. If she refused be would get Into a temper, and bid more and more fell: it until he got it Many women in the neighborhood traded upon his madness, and the man spent nearly all his money in this way. After becoming a bankrupt, about five years ago, ho began to steal handkerchiefs, and ho was imprisoned for three weeks four years ago. As he had never been caught since, the police believed that his imprisonment had cured him, but when taken he was found to have fifteen cambric handkerchiefs upon him, which he confessed to having stolen in one hour. He has never stolen any other article, and every week he was in the habit of destroying by fire the common handkerchiefs, which he had stolen by mistake, as his strange mania is limited to cambric, especially if scented. In his bedroom four hundred and thirty-four eam"TlrTc pocket handkerchiefs wore found, and it is believed that he has concealed many more in hiding places which ho refuses to reveal. He was 9cnt to a madhouse.

Through tho Weary Hours

Of many a night, made doubly long by Its protracted agony, the rheumatic Ruffarer tosses to and fro on his sleepless couch, vainly praying for that rest which only cbmes by fits and Btarts. His malady is one which ordinary medicines too often fail to relieve, but there is ample evidence to prove that the efficient blood depuront, Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters, affords the rheumatic a reliable means of relief. Check the malady in its incipient stages, when the first premonitory twinges come on, with thi» agreeable medicine, an* avoid years of tortures Whatever be the rationale of the active influ" ence of the Bitters upon this malady, certain it in that no evidence relating to its effect is more direct and positive than that which relates to its action in cases of rheumatism. Like all sterling remedies, however, it deserves a protracted. systematic trial, and should not be abandoned because not at once remedial. It iB equally efficacious in dyspepsia, indigestion and kindred diseases.

The Largest Engine.

At the Friedensville (Pa.) zinc mines there is in operation tho largest stationary engine in the world. During the last few months it has pumped dry by underground drainage nearly every orepit, spring and small stream within a radius of five miles The engine is known as the “President,” is of 5,000horse power, and is run by sixteen boilers. At each revolution of its ponderous wheels a small stream is thrown out; the number of gallons raised every minute being 17,500. Tho driving-wheels are thirty-five feet in diameter, and woigh forty tons each. 'The sweep-rod is forty feet long. The cylinder is 110 inches in diameter, while the piston-rod is 18 inches in diameter and makes a ton-foot stroke. The engine has a ba last box capable of holding sixty tons, ami to feed the boilers twenty-eight tons of coal are required daily. On the engine is the largest nut in the world. It is hexagonal in shape and weighs 1,600 pounds. To tighten or loosen this nut twenty men are required, while the wrench that fits it is twenty feet long. From the end of the walking beam of the engine to tho bottom of the shaft the distance is 300 feet. The masonry on which tho engine rests is 108 feet deep, some of the foundation stones weighing five tons.

The Indian Question

Has been the absorbing topic lately. A facetious correspondent says: “If the agents, instead of dosing the poor Indians with cough cures, to the disgust of their palates and destruction of their stomachs, had sold them Shiloh’s Consumption Cure, the only reliable cough cure, palatable to the taste and instantaneous in effect, they would all be on the reservations ypt.” This Is doubtful, but certainly nothing creates more alarm than a cough—nothing cures as quickly as Shiloh’s Cure. It teas the Jtrut guaranteed cure for coughs, asthma and consumption. It to the first In the estimation of all who have used it in throat or lung trouble. Bcmetnber Shiloh’g Cure.

The Oldest Man on Earth.

The oldest man in the world is a citizen of Bogota, in the republic of San Salvador. This new Methuselah declares that he is *l6O years old, and it would seem he flatters hitnsolf, for his neighbors give the assurance that ho is older than he says he is. He is a half-breed named Michael Solis, whose existence was revealed to Dr. Louis Hernandez by one of the oldest planters in the locality, who as a child know Solis as a centenarian. They have found in 1712 his signature among those pf persons who contributed to the building of a Franciscan convent which exists near San Sebastian. His skin is like parchment, his long hair of the whiteness of snow onve ops i.is head like a turban, and his look is so keen that it made a disag.eeable impression on the Doctor. Interrogated by the Doctor, he answered complaisantly that his great ago was duo to his regular mode of living, and to his never giving up to any excess of any sort whatever. “I never eat but once a day,” said he, “but I never use any but the strongest anti most nourishing foods. My meals last a half hour, for I believe it is impossible to eat more in that time than the body can digest in twenty-four hours. I fast the first and fifteenth day of each month, and on thoso days I drink as much water as I can bear. I always let become cold before I touch it. It is to these things that I attribute my great age. ”

In the] morning when I got up I would have a flow of mucus in the mouth, and a bad, bitter taste. Sometimes my breath became short, and I had such queer, tumbling, palpitating c msations around the heart. I ached all day under the shoulder blades,' in the left side, and down the back! of my limbs. It seemed to be worse in the wet, cold weather of Winter and Spring; and whenever the spells came on, my feet and hands would turn cold, and I could get no sleep at all.
