Pt., t-a:--At 8 o'clock Sunday morning the City at Pittaton, nine mites from here, we; thrown into the wildest ex- ;citement by three diatinct and oeperete shocks, accompanied by rumblings ro- eembling an earthquake disturbance. Hundreds of people rushed in mad hub to the Twin Shaft. operated by the) Newton Coal Company, from which the alarm came. where they learned the Shock was due to an extensive cove- in, accompanied by on explosion, which had occurred in the sixth or lower vein at the shaft. Rumors soon gained currency that no lea: than 100 men and born were entombed in the pit. The fearful and distressing news Spread with lightening rapidity, andby 8 o'eioek this morning the head of the wait was thronged by thousands of men. women and children. The hours following the alarm were full of her- rowing scenes. The snxious suspense of the workmen, the grief of the friends. and the tender sympathy for the afflicted ones. manifested by the lpectstorn. were painful to witness. TERRIBLE NEWS FROM BELOW. The first to come to the surface from the shntt after the explosion was John Gill. who was " the bottom engaged in lebor. The force of the concus- sion threw him with terrible force to the well. and with intense fear. more dead than alive, he crept to the foot, and with great difficulty signalled to the engineer st the surface to hoist the carriage. When he was brought up his story added te the doubt as to the surety or any of the men snu boys below. From him was secured the first information of the number of men in the shaft. It is thought that not less than 100 workmen have suffered a moat horrible death. _ - . John Riker. a. runner bor, Jacob Adam and Frank H. Sheridan. com- ma? men, were next brought to the sur we and confirmed Gill's story. It appears that several days ago the offi- owls discovered that the rock between the fifth and sixth veins had oom- [normed "working" and to prevent an nocldent all day Saturday and Saturday night the full complement of day men and such others as could le pressed into aervwe were at work pillaring and propping the sixth vein, so as to en- sure the safety of the workmen who were to go to work on Monday.

In accordance with this order, bo- tween 12 and l ttclock. Sunday may}; ing, about 80 additional workmen left their homes and journeyed to what now seems their grave. The new torcas of men enlisted in the work was placed at a. point beyond that of the night hands and the terrible news brought to the surface by the four men who likely will be the only ones to live to tell the tale of disaster was that all of those IN or more 'en bad 835. ia%iruVTEd Eithéi crushed to im- mediate death or imprisoned to perish I death mart horrifying. THE MISSION OF RELIEF. Upon burning this discouraging news the exeitamont became more amon- ututivo. It was found that all the mule, tommen, superiutende.nta and boss: es who had gone to supervise the work were with those who are imprisoned. This. gave the work of relief no syste- matic head, but .t.he rescuers. provid- ing themselves with safety lamps, hur- ried into the mine carriage and were lowered 1,000 feet or more on the mia- sion of relief. They were John Doyle, Charles McDonald and James Tenyon. After a half-hour of suspense they re- turned with expressions of discourage- ment and the story that the cave-in had become more extensive and that the search party faced inevitable den- ser and that no news had been ee- cured of the unfortunate men. With no deity, however, they again went downl to the foot u the shaft with other men and again made heroic efforts to get what information they could, bat again baffled and discouraged they repeated their story of defeated effort. hot a. third time.

A Grand Che-co for Consuls]: Growers‘ lbs Presented gtaetr--%srleMet' Stumble for Export. l An enquiry has been received by the Dominion Agricultural and Dairy Com- missioner at Ottawa, from Messrs. El- der, Dempster & Co., on whose line of steamship cold storage aaxuiunodts- tion in being provided this year. for tht names of growers or merchants who might be disposed to send ship- ments of tomatoes to the British mar- ket. Messrs. Elder, Dempster & Co. carry large quantities of tomatoes from the Mediterranean, have exceptional facilities for the sale of the fruit in Great Britain, and are disposed tomake an effort to introduce and expand the trade in Canadian tomatoes. The Can- adian fruit in known to be much super- ior in flavor and solidity to what is im- ported from the Mediterranean. Mr. Craig, turrtioulturiat at the Cen-: tral Experimental Farm, Ottawa, has arranged the following notes for the guidance of those who may be inclined to have I share in the development of this business. It is known that to. matoes may be shipped safely to Eng- land with or without cold storage; and there u every reason to believe that jus may be exported with profit after the lat of September. when there is little demand for them in the home market. Whether or not it will pay to export them during August, when the demand in Canada is fairly brisk and the price remunerative, in a quee- tionl that can be decided only by actual rm . .Those varieties which are of medium size. smooth and regular in form, sol.id, with small seed cavities. and of e tile,', red color, are the best kinds to on tivate and select for this purpose. bereral Grant Canada Victor and At- lantic Prize belong to the earliest rip.eo- trig varieties. which fetch high prices in the home market and are not unita- bio for export. Among the most re- liable. smooth, medium, ear? tomatoes, suitable for export, are: iviagston'tt, Beauty, Favorite. Earl Ruby (nome- tunes irregular) and ignotum. It II gamble that the pink and tyet (like ikado) tomatoes, might ta e well UF- on the British market, and it won d be worth while to send a few case: of them on trial. PICKING AND PACKING. Only sound, smooth tomatoes should be selected, when they are fully de- veloped and beginning to color. They should be so carefully picked as to be entirely free from bruises. Small- aized package: only should be used. Tomatoes will not carry long diy- tuicee. if paelredysespsrstl royal deep S',' wax. u. wvaw any..." ....7 is“ large cases or baskets. Indeed, all fruit will carry better to distant' mar- kets if packed in cases, instead of besketa. Cases also wcuEy propor- twnately less space in t 0 storage compartment of the veael. It is sure to say . that tomatoes should not he gril"t in capes exceeding five and B If inches in depth, outside measure- ment.

A despatch from Omega aarr.-Jutst before this sun sank to rest in the blue waters of Lake Ontario, on Thurs- day night persons along the lake front and from the lower bridge witnessed one of the most beautiful and rarest phenomena witnessed in this climate--- a. mirage. It was first discovered short- ly after q o'clock. The Duck and Gal- "ourt Islands, the entrance to Kings- ‘ton harbor, the mate ot vessels, and ‘what appeared to be buildings like for- tifications hung suspended in the sky. BI n it was a remarkable picture and was witnessed for more than half an hour by hundreds of people, and then gradur sbly faded away. t 1?tite',A tsuch p enomena are no apt. an a a re- grdm' g them on Lake Ontario are not be bad. That of Thursday evening, however, is said to have been the clear- est and most distinct seen in many years trom Oswego. A mirage on the eke is not infrequent in midsummer. but is rarely _eeen at this season of the year. When first it was seen on Thurs- day evening. it is said by some who were on the old pier that the reflection of the sunlight upon what appeared to be church spires could be plainly seen.
