EXPLOSION IN A MINE

Fifty People Meet Death.

a Horrible

MANY OTHERS WERE INJURED.

ft Occurred at Montceaules Mines, in the I Department of Saone et Loire, France. Twenty-One Bodies Have Already Beer.

Taken Out, but Are ISurned Beyond Recognition. PARIS, Feb. 5.—A fire broke out yes­

terday in the St. Eugenie pit of the Montceaules mines, department of Saone et Loire, and while the miners were fighting this fire an explosion occurred which wrecked the galleries and enI tombed over half a hundred miners.

It is believed that 30 persons perished in the disaster. The rescue party thus far has recovered 2L bodies and has removed from the ruins eight terribly injured miners.

The work of rescuing the living and recovering the bodies of the dead is

the explosion caused the workings to collapse, tilling the galleries with tona of rock and earth and great quantities of timber that had been used for supports.

The bodies that have already been brought to the surface were so badly burned that they presented the appearance of blackened cinders. The wounded are in a terrible condition, their flesh being frightfully torn. Many of them have broken arms and legs in addition to their other injuries. They suffered the most excruciating agony, and as they were removed from the pit, their groans caused the hardest of the miners who heard them to shudder. The mouth of the pit i" surrounded by wailing women and children whose husbands and fathers tire entombed in the mine.

There has boon two explosions in the St. Eugenie pit previous to this last disaster. iu tho first explosion 84 persons were killed and in the second 40 perished. Duri-uj the ist IS years, however, not an accident had happened in the mine.

HOUSE AND SENATE.

One Dill Passes the House, hut Nothing Done in the Semite. I

WASHINGTON, Feb. 0.—An attempt was made Yesterday in the house to pass an omnibus bill for the payment of claims for stores and supplies coiifiscatod from loyal people in the south during the war, amounting to $718,603. It excited much opposition, especially from Pennsylvania members interested in Pennsylvania war claims, amounting to $1,000,000, and not included:, and the measure was defeated, 95 to 148.

A rule was then adopted for the consideration of the currency bill Wednesday and Thursday, after wliioh thf remainder of the day was devoted to the agriculturtd appropriation bill, which was passed. without amendment. An attempt to reduee the appropriation for

the distribution of seed failed.

Ia tha Senate.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 5.—The senate spent almost the entire day on the District of Columbia appropriation bill, and for the first time sinee the measure was taken up, it did not serve as a text for financial discussion. It is hoped to pass the bill tomorrow, thus clearing the way for fche postofflce and the diplomatic and consular appropriation bills now on the calendar and for the Indian and sundry civil appropriation bills soon to be reported.

WAR NOT

A large demonstration was held in the afternoon and some 10,000 men with banners and bands marched to the palaco and calling out President Diaz tendered their services to the country in case of war with Central America.

There is no diminution in the enthusiasm of the populace for the upholding of what* axe here considered Mexico's righteous demands.

ON THE PLANTATION.

THE FARM NEGRO AND HIS LOVE OF SPORT.

Remarkable Habits of Close Observation. Peculiar Superstitions The Possum Hunt—Fishing In the Old 3Iillpoml—Stories Told at the Mill—Social Amenities.

[Special Correspondence.]

JAMIPOX, S. C., -To*" '-)n —The first time in his life that a negro boy has anything which ho can call his own he swaps it for a dog that can run rabbits and squirrels. He trains the dog to bring these rabbits and squirrels to him when they are caught, no matter how much the dog might like the tasto of fresh meat himself. When the negro boy has attained tho importance of being able to earn a little money by hoeing or picking cotton, gathering peas, shucking corn, driving a wagon or other occupation, he buys a gun,usually a cheap one, with a single barrel and old fashioned manipulations. This weapon is likely to explode when not expected to do so and not to explode when it ought to, but nevertheless it is a gun precious beyond compare in its owner's estimation. It is kept up in tho loft or in some secret corner of the cotton house, where thieves may not break in and steal, and as often as possible the owner visits it, rubs it up, examines it over and over again, aims it at various imaginary objects and otherwise delights in his darling possession. Every Saturday after the game laws are "out" these firc-

HUNTING THE POSSUM popping and cracking in every

arms are direction on the plantation, and dogs are barking and running hither and thither ... ,, in pursuit of rabbits, squirrels, partridges

or doves. All the boya on tho place are on hand, for those not fortunate enough to possess guns themselves are almost na delighted to attend the lucky sportsman who is to bring down tho game. A negro boy of 10 yoars knows tho peculiar note or whistle of every bird that inhabits his native woods and swamps. He knows tho nature of these birds, whether they remain in the neighborhood all winter, whether the male and female of a certain species have the same note or cry, what kind of nests they have, whether they build them near to tho ground or in moro inaccessible places. He Is familiar with tho appearance and habits of these little songsters and calls them by mimes indicative of ccrtain peculiarities which he or his fathers before him have discovered, without regard to what ornithologists may denominate them.

U!rcl Lore.

"Deregoesa shirttail!" calls one of a group of small darkies, defiling along a pine woods lane, each crowned with a weighty sack of meal, white in contrast to their dusky faocs, each looking with eager interest after the bird that has flitted across the way in front of them. The most conspicuous feature of this bird as he flies is the decided glint of white in his wing hence the homely appellation with which he has been christened. "Dat dero's a t'rashoi-!" these small woods craftsmen will tu'clare, '"an dee',' his waitin man," indicating modest appearing brown bird, such as is often seen in company with tho thrasher, and wVch it isinsistod tho thrasher makes waitupoi. him. "De t'rasher oversee do job, but he waitin man got to do all de flyin 'bout an fetchin ob do sticks an straws for mek he house," explain the little naturalists, and then they will go on to tell you that nobody ever sees a blue jay on Friday, and the reason of their absence is that 011 that day of the week they aro obliged to go to hell. "Blue jay am de debble's own bird," they say. "He an all he tribe done gifted an giv' ober to de ole boy, dat mek dey neber mix wid no udder kind ob bird an always fightin and cuttln up."

Every bush and shrub of tho numerous kinds in the southern woods has its individual meaning for tho negro, and ho kuows the names of all the various species of trees, all the different kinds of oaks and what they are good for. "My baby will be a year ole, risin two, when de maple tree blossom red," some buxom matron will say as she displays her sturdy offspring, or she will date liis birth from "de time de gessamine fust come," or say, "Dey begin to haul cotton tode gin when he was two day ole."

Out For th« Possum.

Passing the average negro bouse at dusk of a winter's evening one will find the large and small boys of the family, often the sober father himself, engaged in solect•'choice pieces of "lightwood" to do duty as torched for uso on a possum or coon hunt. The negro rarely takes a gun with him on r. possum hunt. Plenty of lightwood to it. him in looking out for snakes and a goou sharp ax with which to fell tho tree in which t^ie game takes refuge, perhaps a stout stick to help him break through the thicket, usually complete his hunting outfit. The night selected is always 011 "the dark of the moon." "Possum's cute," they say, and knows well enough that his shadow will betray him on a moonlit night, so he stays In hiding. 'Tis only in tho dark that he walks abroad. Lenient landlords, with an abundance of timbered land, do not prohibit tho cutting down of trees for the sake of securing a possum or two, and many a noble pine and stalwart sweet gum fall prostrate in the watches of tho night amid the yelping of the dogs and the shouts and calls of the sable hunters.-, I

Angling. I

Occasionally, when game seems to be shy aud tlio hunt not promising, the possum hunter will kindle a fire right there 1 in the swamp, within a few feet of some black, sluggish looking, winding stream, and go to sleep, depending on the voice of his dog to rouse him when that alert and faithful animal shall have "treed." The

young negroes, as a rule, go hunting in company, reveling in the fun of a merry party, but the older heads often go totally alone, spending night after night in the dense swamps that edge the fields, their dog their only companion, undeterred by the presence of owls and bats and myriad crawling reptiles from enjoying their fascinating pursuit. On a spring evening, or any time after the fish have begun to run up stream, one will find all the darkies fixing their nets, fishing canes, lines and hooks, hunting up cans for bait, etc., to set out for the adjacent ponds and creeks, there to spend tho greater part of the night angling for the fish, which abound in the southern waters. And this is a pursuit in which the women join with the men. All along tho banks of the creeks and ponds lights are gleaming and torches flashing where these night fisherman are seeking to inveigle the finny tribe. If the plantation boasts a water mill, as most, plantations do in that well watered country, and if that water mill is not only for grinding corn and ginning cotton, but also for sawing logs, then the fishing is particularly seductive, for then whole parties can go '"gigging."

The miller is persuaded to shut off nearly all the water from the flossing or sheeting just below his mill gates, and on this smooth surface tho unsuspecting fish are gigged—that is, speared—thrust through and through with a miniature pitchfork whose prongs are sharpened for tho purpose.

Social Sports.

When one watches a group of plantation negroes, many of whom are middle aged men or even grandfathers, assembled at the mill, where they have taken their con to ho ground on a winter's evening, their marvelous vitality, unequaliyl good nature and measureless contentment with life impress tho beholder. Two stalwart men will get to wrestling to entertain the onlookers, or else a half dozen will undertake to surpass each other's agility in jumping long distances, and before the party breaks up some well known local "shuffler" will make the hare rough platform over the mill race resound with the measured patting and kicking and toeing in and out of his nimble feet, some one of the bystanders clapping his hands in that peculiar rhythmic fashion which tho darkies have. Many will bo tho talcs of "Jack o' my lanterns" and "spirits," sworn to as true, told round the blazing lightwood logs, and later some ono will come up with a rabbit or possum, or perhaps a newly acquired ration of meal and meat, and cook it right there on that open fire, sharing it readily with any who are hungry.

SOME STORIES OF DOGS.

A11 I JL™ nual wave of dog stories will surgo through the land. In fact, it has already reared

begin, and then the an-

its awful crest, as I discovered yesterday during a two hours' ride in the smoking car of an accommodation train.

As is always the case on such a train, the personnel of the passengers was constantly changing, but there were two men besides myself who remained in tho car as long as I did, and they both had a few dog stories to tell. I started the trouble, innocently enough, by speaking of Strip, the dog that was employed in London two or three years ago to insert electric wires in subways. "That's a good story, stranger," said the man who was sitting in tho seat with me as he bit off a big chew of plug cut, "but lemme tell you about a dog 1 know about. This dog was in New Jersey five or six yoars ago, and he was just naturally the knowingestvlog on four legs. He belonged to a man named Young in Flagtown, Somerset count". Ever been down there? Well, if yo: ..o. you'd have heard of Young's dog F' .ok. Frank is a liver and white

setter, and You-.g has trained him till you can't rest. a sporting dog bo's the best I over sav. but it's in other things that ho is really great. When Young gets up in the morning, ho .veils to Frank. 'Get me my duds, old chap,' Young' says, and you ought to sec that dog gather up the clothes. "Whenever Young wants to go walking, lie lets Frank know, and the dog jumps on tho rack and gets his master's hat. He'll carry note to any one and wait for '..iie answer, and when Young is cutting kindling wood'the dog carries tho sticks into tho kitchen and puts them in tho woodbox. Moro than ono man had tried to buy Frank when I heard about him, but Young used to eay there wasn't enough money in Somerset county to get that dog." "When I was up in Winnipeg two or three years ago," said a man wearing a fur cap who sat in front of us, "I heard about a dog that went out with his master 6hooting. Thcro were plenty of prairie chickcns that day, and the dog pointed 'em all right, and the man shot every time, but for somo reason he didn't hit ary bird. Well, finally he quit and started home. Tho dog seemed to be awfully downhearted, but when they got almost to the houso he got excited and grabbed the man's coat, like he wanted to load him somewhere. Well, the man had to go, and where do you suppose the dog led the fellow? Well, sir, it was straight to the market, and when he got the man there he Rave one look at the hundreds of prairie chickens there for sale, and then he just pointed, and ho wouldn't go away till the man had bought."

The man who was sitting with me seem ed to take this story as a direct reflection on the truth of the one ho had toid and I straightway retorted with another, whMi I was manifestly invented, and then *.e man with the fur cap told of a dog that could chew tobacco and expectorate as accurately as Dickens' Mr. Challop, whoso exploits were recorded in "Martin Chuzzlewit." I am not sure how long they would havo continued their rivalry if 1 had not silenced both by telling about the swimming races between dogs that were carried on near Boston two or three years ago. Although this story of mino

perfectly true, and tho result of the raoes I was printed in tho newspapers tho day

alter their occurrence, both my companions evidently thought mo a romancer I whom they could not hopo to outlie, and the conversation was abruptly changed.

Among tho items gleaned from Colonel •Cody is story about Qnoen Victoria and little half breed attached to Buffalo Bill's company. It seems her majesty Is very fond of talking with the denizens of tiie wild west, and among other questions she asked tho half breed youth how he liked England. Not having learnod to lie politely yet, he unswered bluntly, "I don't like any country with a squaw for a chiof." IIo couldn't have been much ruder If he had been a thoroughbred and English born.
