Chinamen have a per¬ fect horror of dissection. There are few things more absurd than the eode of rules laid down lor the Chinese coroner. lu the first place he la bidden to make sure thnt he has a dead body before ho begins his In- quest.

ENTOMBED WITHOUT WARNING Kelief Marties From Surrounding nines of the District Kush to the Rescue. A special from Fire Creek, W. Va., says: The most disastrous miue ex- plosion ever known in the New River district occurred at tho Rod Ash miue shortly after the miners went to work early Tuesday morning. Although the most heroic work of tlie rescuing party had been going on incessantly all clay it was impossible at the time to estimate the full ex- tent of the loss of life anil property, More than fifty dead bodies were SOoll taken ont and the number of dead men may reach eighty-five more. It was thought Tuesday night that at least forty five were still entombed in the wrecked mine. The Red Ash mine is a large drift and the explosion occurred near the entrauce, x*hich was thus dosed by fulling slate, entombing a large mini ber of miners. Tile scene of the dis- a-tcr is between Fire (heck and Thur- , llon ,l on the sonth branch of the CbcK-apeok Hid Ohio railway, and every nK.Hstnncepossiblc xv,m rendered by the railway company and by tho adjoining mining towns. Relief par- ti.-s from great diltauoes arrived as soon as possible. with State Mine Inspector Pinckney a corps of exports and many workmen were constantly on the ground render- ingall assistance possible and devoting his attention more toward relief than to an official investigation mi to the cause of the disaster. . J. Fred K(finger, of Staunton, Va., the present owner of the mines, spared no effort in the work of-rescue und re- lief, and his manager, Ferdinand Howell, had all the men available at work in trying to clear nwny the debris and rescue the entombed men.. The managers and bosses of all the mines in the district hurried to tho scene us soon as possible and joined in the work of rescuing. The work waH fitly impeded because of the extent of the euormouB blockade at the en- trauco to the drift, A f the mouth of the mine the scene was beyond description, ilie wives and children and the neighbors of those who were known to be entombed w ere there iu full force am! their anxiety and distress was most intense. After the men got under headway in the work of rescue they reached the first party in less than an hour, but they met greater difficulties after that It was then that telegrams were MPIl( t0 otlior towns for physicians, um ts and caskets, hut during tho greater part of tlio day there was nso onl v for the ca-Uets. AH work was stopped in the snr- rotindiug mines of the district nnd the people w ithin a radiua of many miles gambled 0 n the grounds of tlieuRed Ash company. Had tho accident oc- curr ,, ( i a „ [„„„ lain- manv more would have been entombed in the mines, The estimates on the number iu tbo m i nes when the explosion occurred nre haned ou the nuinboi who went in „ 7 0 - c | 0 < .|t. The manager stated that bv 8 o’clock there would have boon twice as many men in tho mines. As victims wero brought to the sur¬ face an l carried (way upon the hastily constructed stretchers, it was frequent¬ ly noticed that many met their hus¬ band*, ’fathers, brothers and sons among the rescuers when they thought these men were in the mines. These meetings were very affecting The population of tho mining vil¬ lage is only 500. All aio miners nnd very many of them arc related and they all know each other. There was great distress day among those who could not find their friends or Lear from any one that they bad seeu them since the explosion. MWILLIN' MAKES APPOINTMENTS.

Edward C. Flanagan, the noted ! murderer, died early Tuesday morning in a cell of the DeKalb c >unty jail at Decatur, Ga. The murderer of Mrs, Nancy Allen and Miss Ruth Slack had been slowly sinking for several days and the end was not entirely unexpected. He was alone on his cell when the invisible lingers of death closed a out his life und severed the thread that bound him to earth. “Oh, God!” he cried out, nll( ] «heu his two nurses rushed into the room he was past all human aid. DcKatb county took a deep breath of relief when it was known that the little spark of life that lingered in the fifiy pounds of skin and bone, known to the world as Edward C. Flanagan, was extinguished. The celebrated murderer was but a skeleton of his former self; wasted away by a malady that had attacked b j H feeble strength nearly two weeks anil suffering from a gunshot wound iu his right thigh, received on the evening of January 19th last, when be, with other prisoners confined in i b „ DeKalb county jail, made a des- j, erH t e and almost* successful attempt to escape. j{„ bai ] bof>n sb ot by SWiff C. If. Talley, w ho fired into the mob of prisoners > as they rushed out into the j a ji corridor intent upon killing the ,henff and his assista its that they might gain freedom. Some days ago Flanagan secured kerosene and tine- ture of iron ami poured both liquids into the wound, which inflamed it con* siderably. It in said that he also drank kero- sene and tincture of iron, aud Sheriff Talley asserts that this w hs what brought on the terrible malady which j H thought to have been the direct cause of his death. Many of the citizens of Decatur went to the jail to view the body. No one was heard to express any regret at his death. Sheriff Talley mourned least of all. “I think the hand of I’rovidence has intervened in behalf of DeKalb eoun- ty,” said the sheriff, “I believe there "'ll l,e general rejoicing among our people. We have thought the county ha* been imposed upon by the way tho ease has been managed by Ins attor- neys. They are blamed more than Flanagan was. The people became convinced some time ago that Hana- g» n was not crazy, but the ingenuity 0 f the lawyers would probably have put the comity to the expense of keep- ing Flanagan for two or three years more, if Providence had not come to onr ai d. “But, though we are not sorry that the burden has been taken off of us, H (j|j we had given him the best atteu- ti„n that anybody could in jail. I fitted up a nice room for him, paying the cost out of my own pocket, and showed him many special favors until his attempts to escape made such a course unwise. 11 c attempted to es¬ cape several times.” In cold cash Flanagan has cost the CSllnty of DeKalb in the neighborhood of ten thousand dollars. Needless to say tha taxpayers of that unfortunate county have a lasting re- collection of the irony of fate which caused the horrible deed tube perpetra- ted within their borders.

A double „ murder ;- was committed ,„ Jk about , ten miles from Hazlehurst, 6 a., Mon- day night abont dark by two young negroes named Builer Goosby, aged 18, and his brother, Numan Goosby, aged 15. They called at the residence of Mr. Dan Mims and stopped and hired to him to chop cotton, he having agreed to give them employment. They both ha i 8Xe handle8 with th « m - and 88 soon as it was dark Mr. Mims outside and one of the negroes knock- ed him down. They ent his throat and stabbed him in the eyes. Mrs. Mims, who was in the house, on hearing the disturbance rushed out to her husband, and she too was knocked down. The negroes thinking they , , had . .... killed . , her, turned . ..... their at- tention to Mr. Mims, thereby giving Mrs Mims time to escape Mrs. Mims had her baby in her arms at the ti ne she was knocked down and the shock caused by her fall injured the baby so it has sinco died, xvhile Mrs. Mims is seriously hurt and the chances for her recovery are exceedingly poor. The coroner held an inquest and the deputy sheriff with his blood- hounds and a large posse of men be- gan scouring the woods in every direc- tion hunting for the murders. The motive of the crime is snpposed to have been robbery and criminal assault. Mims was a young man, the son of John T. Mims, one of the most sub¬ stantial and highly respected farmers in Appling county. Mims had been married a little over one year. M’KINLEY TO CONTROL.
