AN APPALLING DISASTER A TerrlSo Explosion Caused by Gas In the Mine, and Fearful Fatality la Reported. An explosion occurred in the Langdon-Henezey Coal Company's mines, situated at Cumnock, this morning. Many Uvea were sacrifioed. This was the substaooeot the first news received of a terrible mine dis aster at the old Egypt eoal mine. The news was obtained from pgQ gers on the Seaboard Air Line, who learned of the disaster at Moncure. Forty Persona Reported Killed, Telegrams were fired at different persons in the little mining village, which is situated on a private rail road, fourteen miles' from Moncure, and answers were anxiously awaited during the day. Conflicting reports as to the magnitude and extent of tbe disaster have been circulated. A telegram from a railroad employee at Monoure stated that forty per sons were in tbe mine when the ex plosion occurred this morning be tween the Hours of 8 and 9 o'olook. and that all means of connection be ing ehut off, it was impossible to tell bow many were numbered among the dead. Heard a Distance of Fourteen Miles Mr. II. A. London, editor of the Chatham Record, was a passenger on tbe train that passed Monoure this morning. The train only stop ped a few minutes and he could obtain but very little information regarding tbe explosion, Mr. London said that the explosion oooured about 8 a. m. and was heard id Monoure very distinctly, a dig tancs of 14 miles. "No one in Mon oure had autbentio news, but it was said that six or eight men were killed. Nothing was known of the injured or those unaccounted for in the mine Pby8iotanrwere summoned from all surrounding towns. " Ic would seem judging from the distance the explosion was beard that every one in tbe mine niust have been killed. . It is likely that tbe entire force was in the miae at work at tbe time of tbe oartaatropfaw Tbe expiation was caused, SUfl-j posed ly, by gas. Between 80 and 40 miners are entombed and there Is scarcely any probability that any have esoaped death. Facts About the Mine. Cumncck U tbe name of the town where the mines are situated. Un til a few months ago it was named Egypt, but tbe old Egypt Company was reorganized under tbe name cf The Langdon Henetzy Cos! Com pany. Northern capitalists are back of tbe enterprise The railroad run ning from Moncure to Cumnock is controlled by them. Only North Carolinians are emv ployed as laborors in the mine. The mine is a large one consisting of four tunnels and reached the depth of 450 feet. Mr. Thomas J. fence, of the staff of tbe Pbbss-Visitor, left this after noon via tbe Seaboard Air Line train for tbe eoene of the disaster. Hear Mr. Thompson Monday Nlg-bt. Mr. E B.

The youth and beauty and society of Durham waa there; and in the large Carr-o-lioa and at the Villa itself were scores of the State's representative Deonle. Aa one approached "Someraet," there buret upon the view a acene of india cribable beauty. The palatial resi dence, with its mammoth verandas: and turrets and windows of stained glass, wss a glitter with electricity, while from the noble doors and hallways the light poured out In a flood of hospital ity. It was fairy-laud become a real ity; and this effect wss brightened and made dszzlingly charming by the light-studded lswns, over which, at intervals of two feet, tiny, welooming Hamlets, of bins and red and green and white, blazed merrily. It was through this glittering maze that I walked Hat evening into "Som erset Villa." Inside the scene chanced from one of Inanimate beauty to the mi-re potent charm of brilliant, happy Itfe, moving in a setting; of exquisite tuste. The spacious hall, filled with the draperies and bric-a-brac furnish ings such ss only refined taste can prepare, was last evening lent addi tional besuty by festoons and settings f rareaf flowers Green was the back. ground, while from it masses of dark r lighter shade gleamed the pure white of rose and lily. Sweepino- grafully from the ceiling and entwining themelve about the mag nificent chandeliers and noble stair way and softening the blai4 of of tbe lights, were clusters and grace ful ropes of pink and white carnations, the prevailing decorations. But the happy throng of oil and young and middle aged, of wealth and fashion and humility that walked through the parlors and chatted with the pleaaure able exaitement of weddiug quests, did the Villa honor It wss a unique scene, fashionable and democratic The glittering uni forms of the Governor's stiff contrast- J pleaaingly with tbe dull grey of Dirham county farmera, who knew that they, although humble, were as welcome ss the rnjat distinguished gnest; Dr Winston and Dr. Kilgo met and chatted pleasantly; Commissioner Otbo Wilson stood among Democrats and for once abstained from politics. All classes, all religions were there; snd all were happy at one of the most notable social fanctlona of tbe State'a hiatory. So now for the weddipg, standing out from a back-ground of wtalth snd of fsshioai yet it wss not this thst mads the ceremony beautiful cad caused every hesrt to best in unison with those at the altar; It was ths sim plicity of perfect teste, the glory of a love match." At just eight o'clock from th second parlor on the left there came the notes of the piano. Then, softly a first, Insrsasing in power and sweet nee a man's vole swelled oot. It was 'Oh, Promts Me," sung by Prof. Dar nell, of Raleigh i and it waa this song of hope and lova whioh accompanied the wadding party to tb altar. Th attendant entered in two ec tloas, filing in from th hall and from th adjoining parlor, and arranged themselves In front of th bay window where th ceremony was performed, la parallel line, making alaaathroagh which earn tho to follow.

The cere mony waa long, solemn snd Impreselv to a degree, part the Methodist cere mony, part tbe Kpisoopalian, As tfr, and Mrs. Flower knelt for their bless ing and the deep ton-a of the preaoh er'a "Amen" rang out in the silence. little Austin Csrr standing by his mother piped a fervent "Aoi-n," also. It was a pretty incident; for tbe shrill little word was eviden'Vy prompted by a benediction of a hesrt, deeper snd stronger than the vt ice. And the guesta standing abouteoboed that touching "Amen" with bated breath; snd tbe sweet pstbos of it brought tears to many an eye. S after congratulations had been aaid and received, thera came the wed ding supper. Before thi-, tbe brides maids cut tbe cake; Mis fsrrlan waa the young lady on whom Cupid aeema next to have set his heart; for she it was ho got the ring. The supper was magnificently aerved by Phila delphia caterers. It wss such s feast as was becoming to .Somerset.

The piesents were tbe moil valua ble ever seen in the state. lavlau as tbsy were, there waa not in a single instance tbe forgetfuln'ss of taste dis played.
