A' despatch frons Willtesbarre, Pa., says;—At 3 o'clock Sunday morning the City of Pittston, pine miles- from !sere, was thrown into the wildest Me. eitement by three distinct and separate ehoclts, accompanied by rumblings re- sembling an earthquake disturbance, Hundreds of people rushed ill mad haste to the Twin Shaft, operated by the Newton `Ceai Company, from which the alarm came, where they learned the shock was due to an extensive cave- in, accompanied by an explosion, which had occurred in .the sixth or lower vein of the shaft Rumors soon gained currency that no less than 100 men and boys were entombed in the pit. The fearful and distressing news spread with lightening rapidity, and by 8 o'clock this morning the head of the shaft wag thronged by thousands of men, women and children. Tbe bourn following the alarm were full of har- rowing scenes, Tbe anxious suspense of the workmen, the grief of the friends, and tee tender sympathy for the afflicted ones, manifested by the spectators, were painful to witness, TERRIBLE NEWS FROM BELOW, The first td come to the surface from the shaft after the explosion was John Gill, who was at the bottom engaged in labor. The force of the concis- sion throw him with terrible force to the wall, and with intense fear, more dead than alive, be crept to tbe foot, and with great difficulty signalled to the engineer at the surface to hoist the carriage, 'When he was brought tip his story added to the doubt as to the safety of any of the men and boys below. I•rom him was secured the first information of thenumber of men in the shaft. It is thought that not less than 100 workmen have suffered a most borrible death. John Riker, a runner boy, Jacob Adam and Frank H. Sheridan, com- Peny men, were next brought to the surface and confirmed Gill's story. It appears that several days ago the offi- cials discovered that the rock between the fifth and sixth veins bad com- menced "working" and to prevent an accident all day Saturday and Saturday night the full complement of day men and such others as could be pressed into service were at work pillaring and propping the sixth vein, so as to en- sure the safety of the workmen wbo were to go to work an Monday. Sat- urday night the regular night force was Vo { r].mg at apoint about 3,000 feet from the shaft at the foot of No. 3 plane, at a point under what is known as the Flats, a little east of the Lox- ton Railway yards, The force was under the supervision of Supt. Langan and his assistant, Miebeal Lynot. Or- ders were given about midnight that as many men ss possible should be sent down to assist in this dangerous work. In accordance with this order, be- tween 12 and 1 o'clock Sunday morn- •ing, about 30 additional workmen left their homes and journeyed to what note seems their grave. The new force 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 wbo likely will be the only ones to live to tell the tale of disaster was that all of these 100 or more men had been caught and either crushed to im- mediate death or imprisoned to perish a death most horrifying. 1 THE MISSION OF RELIEF. Upon learning this discouraging news the excitement became more demon- strative, 11 was found that all the mine foremen, superintendents 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 the rescuers, provid- Mg themselves with safety lamps, hur- ried into the mine carriage and were lowered 1,000 feet or mare an the mis- sion of relief. They were Job Doyle, Charles McDonald and James Tenyon. After a half -boor of suspense they re- turned with expressions of discourage- ment and the story that the cave-in bad become more extensive and that the search party faced inevitable dan- ger and tbat no news bad been se- cured of the unfortunate men. With no delay, however, they again went down to the foot of the shaft with other men and again made heroic efforts to get what information they could, but again baffled and discouraged they reheated their story of defeated effort. bor a third time, at 2 p.m. to -day, with re Dewed vigor and still more men, they went beneath the surface into the pit and tried by the counter -gangway to reach by a circuitous route the unfor- tunate prisoners. After a journey of nearly a thousand feet they met ob- structions innumerable, the force of the concussion having created disastrous havoc, brattice work, pillars, air con- duits, doors, cars and top rock having been piled promiscuously so as to inter- fere with all efforts that could be made by any Human being. Then to add to the trouble an accumulation of gas bad occurred so as to endanger efforts to reach any{vbere near the im- prisaned miners, Not subdued by these obstacles they again ineffectively tried their last resource to relieve and re- cover the men. General Manager John B. Lav, who has been ill for several days, made his appearance at the shaft to give instructions. Special messen- gers called to the shaft all of the com- pany's workmen. It having been teem- ed that the mine was still caving, tbereby making it lraeticaly Impos- sible to continue the labor ivitbout propping up the way es the rescuers went in, carriage. after carriage 01 props was sant to the bottom, and, under charge of Foreman Eagan of the Phoenix mine, Messrs, Maloney of the Raven abaft and McMillan of the Bar- num shaft, much progress was made in this work, and soon the imminent danger was prevented and at Ieast 50 men were pushing their way to the toot of No, 8 plane, the scene of the extensive cave-in. l ' To the encouragement of those who feared the explosion bad ended the lives of everytbing in tb0 mine, ward was sent up that the mules were run- ning about. The fact, at these mules living unscathed jgave the impres- sion that the explosive sounds beard were due to no gas explosion but only as g oeray, as was Meilonaid was on thground and went to the toot of the abaft, where he .made a tderougb investigation, Me •deter- mined that ne resoue Maid then be made and his report only confirmed the stories of his predecessors in the work of resole, So far as travel was possible the air ,currents were perfect. To the encouragement of all it was found that the fan house bad suffered no injury.

At midnight, after looking over the situation carefully, the rescuing party decided that the best thing to do was to drive a gangway through the coal from the Clear Spring colliery adjoin- ing into the Twin Shaft, when it is expected it will be possible to locate the entombed men. The work wasat once begun, and is being pushed with all the speed possible. Four shifts of men, each comprising five experienced min- ors and laborers, are employed in this task, which is expected to consume at least three or four days. In the mean- time the work will be pushed by the reamers in the fatal shaft also. It is now the opinion of the most able miners that it will take several days to find the entombed men. At 12.30 as m. a gang of men be- longing to the rescuing party, who went in at 6 o'clock, came to the sur- face and reported that they were mak- ing headway, though is was slow work. The roof continues to settle, and dan- gger is imminent. They are within 660 feet of the cave-in. Gas appears to be accumulating, which makes the labor difficult, and delays the work to a great extent, No hopes are now entertained for the safety of any of the men. NEW BICYCLE DEVICES. Ingenious Leeks, Auxiliary Scat trn,1 Mir.. eel Currier. Many devices have been adopted which utilize the bicycle for advertis- ing purposes. One of the most unique is a bicycle constructed solely of the different tools used in the hardware business. Tbe frame of the machine is composed of two eircular saws, two stove rods and one bench screw. The sprocket wheel is made up of two beli- e eled-edge emery wheels. The machin can be rolled around without falling to pieces. Many locks for bicycles have been making their appearance this season, but one just invented is noteworthy for its simplicity. It comprises a detach- able locking case, suitably applied to the pedal shaft of the wheel. It is provided with a bolt and key, and when desired can be locked at any time, and thus act in a measure as a guard againstthievery. A new auniliary seat and parcel car- rier for wheels adds another to the many devices of this kind. It com- prises a double rod frame, extending to each side of the top bar and curved inwardly, hooks and saddle pieces con- necting the bars from each side to- getber, to rest over the top bar of the Irame, and a seat or carrier portion arranged at the forward end. All devices of this nature look sim- ple and practical enou'gb, but it is a fact that when in use they hamper the rider considerably and have so far not met with popularapproval. Pneumatic cushion frames are being applied to nearly all of the bicycles now in course of manufaoture. The cushon device proper is composed of pneuma tic telescoping tubes working one with- in another. The innermost tube con- tains a graduated spiral spring, the purpose of of thechridero Do bled aiir pockets within the tubes are to sus- tain the thrust of the rider wben cross- ing obstructions. Tbe air also serves to assist the spring to return the er to a normal position without any tendency to an upward throw. Though the cushion device is placed on the rear frame only, it is so con- structed, it is claimed„ that both wbeel's are saved from sudden shock or trem- bling, and that thus handle bar vibra- tion is eliminated. Inventors and manufacturers are now giving their entire attention to the construction of some kind of motor for the bicycle. Electricity has been tried several times, but without much suc- cess. Compressed air has been con- sidered, but not seriously. However, when the news came that compressed air motors would be applied to cable cars, the subject was again taken up with great eagerness. Whether a suitable compressed sir motor can also be constructed for the bicycle does not seem at all improbable. As a motive power it would certainly be more desirable than any gasoline or electric power so far tried. In tbe meantime interesting developments of an inventive cbaracter are anxiously awaited.

Bennett, Conservative member in the test House of Commons, said, "talten in the morning it clears the bead of any cold or catarrhal trouble that is manifest."' But it not alone deals with the minor cases of catarrh, but even where deafness and some of the worst forms of disease have be- come :neatest, those have been era- dicated by this remedy., To the names of Mr. George E.
