The dis trict for miles around la fairly honey-, tombed with coal mines. One forenoon tho startling information reached the city that there had been an' explosion in one of the pits Blantyre, a 'village , seven or right miles away, and curiosity drew me thither. 1 don't believe IU1 ever forget the awful spectaole. Over 200 men were en tombed, great volumes of smoke shot np through the pit mouth" and the wives and mothers stood by as near as they dared, weeping and wringing their hands fox the immfi men below. . , .r ' , V- "Rescue parties were qniokly made np, bnt they were driven back repeatedly by the blinding, choking fumes that belched from 'the pit mouth. The cries of the women were heartrending as they entreated the rescue party to go down. As quickly u human bands and human hearts could do it a fati was placed in position and the cage lowered over the deadly shaft. Still the men, inured as they were to danger, ihrank back. Billy Smith pushed his way through them. He was a big, strong, lanky fellow, sluggishly good natured and known iir the village as the man who didn't know much. He had wandered into the Tillage half a dozen years before' with i dirty, limping cur at his heels. When be was asked bis name, he said it was only Billy nothing more. So they stuok Smith to the Billy because it Was easy a&d rigged him out with a full name. 'A ""Haud the pup,' he said quietly, 'and let me gae dope.' An elderly woman who baa" three sons iu toe pit blessed him with tears streaming down her cheeks, while the men stood back abashed, and lull ashamed. Billy was lowered quickly, and in a few moments it seemed like an eternity to the wailing women above be Bgnaled-fbr the oage to be brought up. It carried three men and a boy, blackened, choking, but unhurt. ' " fc "A few; of the rescue party went down with the. cage again, for the shaft was clearer now, and more of the entombed Diners were quickly sent to the top.: Then the horrors of the scene began to present themselves. Thero had been a great up heaval in the mines by the force of the ex plosion, and the passages were hopelessly thoked up with tons of fallen coal and debris. More men went to the rescue. They dug their picks into the awful wall In front of them, urged on by the energy f despair. Night fell, but still the mo notonous ring of the picks struck through the mine, which even now was the tomb of many a strong man struck down in his Kline. Presently a sort of opening was ffado into the stubborn wall of coal which "tacked up the way, and a man's arm pro hdd. The victim was quickly dug out ad conveyed to the pit mouth. , He was (tond all human help. He was not badly tangled. He had simply been choked, to atn by the Are damp. v : ; - y "As the rescuers in the mine dng farther bto the opening $by had made the deadly m damp rushed through and drove them tak. The fatal fumes pursued them, and Bey hurriedly gave the signal to be drawn P till the pit could be cleared of the foul It Only half wltted Billy Smith re mised.' You see, he did not know much. He flung himself on the damp ground and 7 mere ior Hours, helpless and half con "loos. I By and by his dull intelligence told him of the buried miners in their liv ing tomb beyond. .

' Qnaarded Agmltut Noim. . A Mild feat Efficient Polloe The Love J of Outdoor ULfe. A London Sunday is a very solemn if not a pre-eminently religious day! Per haps there is no city in the world that, to tho stranger,- shows as austere and repel lent on the'Sawbath" as this -modern Babylon. - .To Issue, from yonr hotel or domicile at 10 o'olook in the morning is to enter the streets of a deserted city. A few cabs with sleepy horses and Invisible cabmen may be in the. ranks of a street here and there; now and then a bus may rumble past; occasionally, too, a private, equipage of -one or two horsepower will hurry by; and, of course, men and women nd children will straggle along; but what movement there Is only heightens and In tensifies the emptiness and loneliness of the monster city 'a desolation, and one asks' one'a self wonderingly, " Where are the crowds and the confusion Of yesterday,' the surging thousands, the Incessant stream of traffic, the dull,-reverberating rumble of wheels, the muffled oUp-clap of myriads of lronshod hoofs beating the pavement, and that inartloulate, Indefinable hum of, a great city's babbler . Whither has It all vanished? They only can tell Who are the particles of the daily commotion. - Every thing Is closed, as If men were done with buying and selling, even the "pubs" being forbidden to sell to any one not a "trav eler," though I believe any person who lives a three miles' remove from the "pub" may.qualify as a "traveler." .! J-"-". . -. But yon are glad of the quiet and repose as you walk abroad and appreciate the benefloenoe of a day of rest so Universally respected. There is no temptation to loiter In the streets, for the shop windows have heavy shutters before them or are curtain-' ed within. The tradesman does not seem to think it worth while to cheat his God or juggle with bis conscience by using his windows as a Sunday advertising medium. He closes np shop la earnest. So, with nothing to see in the thoroughfares, you stroll Into the "parks, and there you see the lower middle class world, all ages,; decked out, a la MoGinty, in its best suit of clothes, y quite at ease and happy, idle, hatty, laughing, but to the full degree or derly and in no way noisy. You may hear presently the far resounding boom of "Big Ben" proclaiming from his lofty tower the aging of the day, and you will know that cathedral, abbey and church are receiving their congregations -and that sqon " from thousands of choirs and pulpits will ascend that spiritual essence of . physical submis sion which has made the nineteenth cen tury a little better than any other cycle that ever was. Now, if you chance. to stand in one of the busier thoroughfares near a church you will note another Lon don peculiarity. .On the lampposts of the "refuges" in the middle of the street are placards, hung there only Sundays, which bear the command "Drive slowly.". The driver of bus or cab or cart or "growler" or carriage pulls sharply up at that notice and keeps his team at a walk until the church, is well passed; then he may whip into a trot again and go his lively way to the next warning. - Services In a London church are not disturbed by the roar of the careless street. -This Btreet placard, which alms to subordinate worldly necessities to spiritual desires, and which, in a manner, typifies a London Sunday, would not, I fear, have much lnfluenoe upon the inde pendent ardor of Yankee Jehus. .But here a constable stands before the door of the church, and, though be never lifts a finger nor opens his lips in admonition, his pres ence Is an all sufficient reminder of laws that are uncompromisingly and surely en forced.. What marvelous creatures these London policemen are, to be sure I i Quiet, undemonstrative, polite, ready their voices always modulated to conversational tones; no bluster, no clubs, no knocking down and dragging oil. Yet they give the biggest city In the world the best police service and prove better than argument may what a really civilized . community London Is. - Even Paris arms her polloe with a huge dagger, by courtesy called a sword, an instrument of defense and assault that the dapper gen darmes are only too ready to draw and put to use. : Sunday does not end witn day light, as it does In some communities that temporize with religion, but i rounds out . the 24 hours. Therefore there are no Sun day evening amusements. ' Theaters, run sic halls, vaudevilles, concert rooms everything of the sort la scrupulously closed. - So very strict are the authorities in these respects that it Is only with the greatest difficulty and by the smallest ma jority of votes that permission is given for the Sunday opening ol sucn rare ana tem porary public benefits as the loan collec tion of old paintings at Guildhall. Be- eently a concession has been made to mu sic, and lt is possible now to attend a classical and semisacrecr concert Sunday afternoon and evening, but these : are In freduent. there being only two advertised in last Sunday's papers. Whether this Sabbath day rest be dictated by sent! mental or by sensible consideration, there isn't the slightest doubt that itsi value to London is so great that, If all religious scruples were removed, the present metro politan regulations " would continue . in force, for the public is well aware of the benefit to the individual and to the com munity of this ordered suspension of "wrangling worldliness." It need not be inferred from this that London is a com mnnity of churchgoers. i Indeed ; my ob servation leads me to the conclusion that an extraordinarily small proportion of this vast population Is to borrow the phrase of an impious wretch addicted to church. But they make up" for the deficiency by a love of nature, for the outdoor life of the English is Itself a religion. You would think so, Indeed, to see their swimming races In the Serpentine In Hyde park on Christmas day. What other people takes an open air plunge into water every day in the year, often breaking through ice to do It. It Is not puritanism alone that bids - such a people keep one day in the week for better things than work. Elwyn A. Bar ron In Chicago Times-Herald. . Just Nature, That's .

A Kreat many rattlesnakes had been seen In tbe neighborhood, but the location of the reptiles' den was not known for a long time. Finally It was decided that It was in the cavity from whioh the water came lntathe spring. The people were afraid to onen it While the weather was warm and the snakes were lively, but one winter day the cavity was opened, and, a perfeet menaerle of the reptiles was unearthed, That day there were killed out of that one den 460 yellow rattlesnakes, besides nearly 76 black and garter snakes.

A-rmaaei- rjhla Times. . Sootland and Education. This desire for education is Indeed the beet feature in the intellectual tempera ment of the Scottish " people. The well known ambition of the Scottish mother to have her son "wag his pow in a pu'pit" Is now' somewhat weakened by the opening up of oth'er paths of intellectual achieve ment, but there is still, a widely diffused desire for intellectual in preference to com mercial pursuits. It is an indication of the craving which exists for knowledge in general that for every young man who goes to college in England seven go to col lege in Sootland. In 1886 Sootland; with a population' of 8,725,000, had 6,600 stu dents attending - her . four universities, while England, with 26.000,000 of popula tion, had 6,000 attending her four teaching universities. This, it may be supposed, has some connection with the large per- oentase of Scotch lawyers, doctors, clergy men and schoolmasters to , be met with 'throughout the English speaking world. !
