Om of lbs sddt acaidMts that has sver been ohroaloled la this section of the Stat occurred at lb seal bOm aperated by Jones 4 Nbbet to-dsy. A xplosloa tor things tn places geaerally, satalllug a terrlbl loss of life. It wa Just four o'clock this afternoon when tba sngineer, L. Davis, was startled by s Mumed explosion which shook tb earth, and looking toward th mouth of the abaft h saw a volume of thick, black amoks Bearing therefrom. Only on explanation preseated ttealf te hi mind, and that wm a horrible oa an explosion of Mrs -dam p. He knw that th fere mm and eleven other human being were below, and he wm fairly paralyzed for aa instant at the thought of their fat. He wm brought to his sans by a sharp ring at tb signal bell, hewing that there was soots one still alive below, aad hi another second h had set the msehiaery in motion with all th Meant pressure b could control. It teemed a lire, tlm before tM cage came to the surface, bat the engineer had to stand by bte sngiM and bad to watch for It at a distance. When tt did appear the fore maa, Sylvester Msaon, aad a boy named William Starr staggered aa? It aad smerged from the cloud of smoke. They were so uniformly black as lo be hardly recognizable, and they were all but senseless through suffocation. Mr. Mason soon recovered sumcleally to make state meat that them had been aa explosion, that all the man were probably dead, and thai he ami young Starr had only escaped by a Btftkgie Mr. XMbst, one of lb arm of Xlsbet A Jones, wm one of a smsll psrty to Immediately board the care, and, taking their live ta their hands, IMy went down. TM smok proved too dense, however, and they were compelled ta return. A second trip wm mad soon afterward, and a third, and a fourth, but tbey war (utile. One brave fellow named Harry Longshore mad tuck a desperate endeavor lo reach his dying friends that be wm overcome, dragged oat m1m and now lie in a critical aaadlttoa. For four hours nothing oould be done, and meantuM a telegram wm sent to a Mlghboftng town for mine to aid la tb rescue. While waiting for the smoke te dear away Mr. Mason gave a full stoUmeat substantially m follows: The shaft is SSO fet deep and at tb bottom a corridor seven tost wide lead eastward for ever two hundred yards. On ether side f this corridor the mining room open Y and the men during th day work ia there, drilling boles htte tM seven-foot vain af coal and charging them with powder. It te customary about four o'clock very evening ta discharge there blasts with fuse. This afternoon about four o'clock: I went down and found that there were thirteen eurga ready to be Bred. The men were about ready to quit for th night and I totet then to Mr alt tM abet. When they de this tbey all seek some tale niche or nook net far eat and th cbatgM are Mrd on at a After giving the order I started for feet of tM abaft about yard , aad was accompanied by Billy Starr, a her whose father and brother were at work ia th pit. I was standing at tM foot of ,tM shaft for the men lo come out so that I could check them off and make sura that none got toft there all night. W beard three shot a few minutes apart, and then w heard fourth, which was fallowed Immediately by a lerrlUte explosion in the direction of tb men; then a rath of air, and then a great volume of Mr that filled th whole corridor. I was blown against the tide of the shaft and badly injured, especially In the kg, nd the little boy was stunned. I thought at nrst I would wait and try to save the men, but tb flames were eonttng fast, IM sir was stifling, and I felt it would be death to remain there another minute. I stepped on the cage, dragged th boy after me and rang I he bell By the Mm we reached th surface I was nearly mrangtod and barely conscious, nd th boy wm unoMsetous. It wa dearly m explosion ef gat, and as It occurred way beck where the man were they had no enseee for escape. By 8 o'clock tM smoke had entirely cad ta ascend and all was quiet m the arave In the deep black hoi. Again tb cat wm manned and hardy miners war among the party thm time, having cornea long dittane to aid In the work. A hearty (lod-need from the multitude attended them m tbey dteappeared below the surface, possibly te face daath alto. They found the smok still thtok below, awing ta tba absence ef sir currents, th traps by which these currents were kept up, havlag been blown down by the explosion. Still they persisted, and bortly before o'clock they had penetrated 100 yards through the debris. Tbey found James W. King, the Srst of the victim, lying 44 on his fsc, dead. H bad evidently crawled half way to tb shaft after the explosion, a he laid on top of th slato which must have been torn down by the explosion. Ms wm carried out, and th body, still warm, wm hotel ed above, Xxt the party found a dead mule, which had been terribly mangled by the explosion, its stall being torn all lo pieces. Another hundred yards through the danEron passage, and they came upon the lane of th victim, all dead nd only a tow pace apart.
