TWO Hundred Jives Lost In a IIIUw—A Terrible explosion. A despatch from VioLoria, B.C., says: —Particulars of an appalling catas- trophe that occurred at the Toyokuni coal mine at Kyushu, Japan, are at hand. It appears that on the morning in questiou, a tremendous sound, ao- oottspanied by violent quaking of the earth, was experienoed by the people living adjacent to the mine. instantly they rushed out of doors and saw a column of dense black smoke issuing from the pit, throwing pieces oC wood and other articles high up into the air. About 200 men and women were at worts in the pit at the time. A party of resouers essayed to go into the pit from the side entrance, but was driven back by the suffocating gas that filled it. Steeps were at once taket'to ven- tilate the gas -laden pit, It was, how- ever, soma time before the people could go into the shaft. Up to the 'tight of the 1601 only five bodies had been recovered charred and with terribly injured limas. The work of reeovering the corpses was stili go- ing on when the Olympia sailed. The miner's sheds have been chang- oet into big charnel houses, where the ghastly operation of washing the black bodies, pl.u,ing them in coffins and cat- aloguing thein is being tarried on by a large number of miners, tvho have come from the other mines. In some rases whole families were annihilated, excepting infants or aged people. ihlr. ltbiraoka, NI, 1r., who is now travelling in America, is the principal owner of the mine, and the loss result- ing( from the disaster is roughly esti- mated at 100,000 yen.

Here is another trick of Ile e.attifogger, 'they attempt to make it ct personal disre- gard of the king. 14. The king , , was sore dis- pleased with himself, The Revised Version omits •'with himself," but it is a colloquialism which helps us to un- derstated lite king's position. He had suffered himself to be entrapped. He was afraid that the primes who had conspired against Daniel. might con- spire against him. Iia was afraid of popular opinion concerning himself: Be his blunder he had shown himself mal to be divine. Ou the other hand lee had a genuine regard for Daniel. Set its heart on Daniel to deliver him. That a man brought up as an oriental, king should ue petulant and whimsical is natural indeed, that such men should ever be strong and bravo seems strange, and yet most of them Were capable of arousing themselves to splendid activity. And doubtless Darius did his best dor Daniel, now. He Labored Lill the going down of the sun to deliver him. We can only suppose that he Labored or wrestled with the law, trying bo find some authority for change of sentence. And meanwhile he delayed the execution of the senlenae. 15. Assembled, "Tumultuously," as before. Ii¢ow, 0 king, etc. The post- ponement of the punishment of Dan - lel aroused the eoustait'ators. They must threaten the king, else he would not carry out their plans and his own word, and the threat of this -verse has a revolutionary sound, 16. Cast him into the den of lions. It is probable that this den was a sort of cage in the royal gardens, for Ivo know that lions were thus preserved in ancient Babylonia, and that it was a cage seems likely from the king's later conversation with Daniel. Thy God whom thou servest continually, he will deliver thee. The very foot which tch leads to his oonviotion and punisluneut in the ooarts of men is the fact that in the sight of God will justify him. Devout heathen of all sorts and a great many devout Jews believed in the existence of many gobs. We are not to suppose from this verse that Darius believed that Jehovah was the real and omnipresent God, but rather that he was a god, and as faithful to his worshipers as all gods were sup- posed to be, 17, A stone was brought, and laid upon the month of the den; and the king sealed it with his own signet, of his lords. The stone was very prob- ably placed at the mouth of the den simply to receive the signet. A. oord may have been laid neross it and fast- ened on each end by a lump of clay on which was stamped the royal seal., So our Lord's tomb was sealed, That the signet of his lords was added, as well as that, of the. Ming, shows the great importance of the Perisan nobil- ity in national affairs, That the pur- pose might not be changed, "That nothtng might be changed concerning Daniel." The king himself must be bound es well as the humblest sub,jeat of lee realm, 18. The king went to his palace. Il'rom the court room where Daniel had been sentenced. Passed the night fasting. That night Daniel elept more happily on the float with hungry lions about him than dict Daring on its cush- ions, Fasting carries the idea both of lack of appetite and sleepless. His nerves were racked by the anxiety of his mind. Instruments of music, Revised Version margin, "dancing girls," Xenophon describes Darius as vain and without self-control, and thor- oughly devoted to wine and women, Alt occasion therefore, when he turns with loathing teem both wine and women is noted by the historian es something unusual, 19, The icing areas very early in the mcrniug. At the glimmer of the down, ,'tilt) .grief at last overcomes his fear of the nobles. The wretchedness of his night had doubtless been food for mauve gossip, and probably many eyes watched his journey to the den of l ions, 20. A lainentable Voice. His tones bespoke his emollons.
