At the recent Press Fund dinner in
London, Sir Alexander Galt, in reply to
the toast of the American press, told
how in every little village of British
North America the people have
their newspaper, which contains sub

world that is printed in the great Lon
don dailies, and warned the British
newspapers that they must have a care
for their laurels or the American and
colonial press would distance them in
the race for supremacy.

WHISTLING IN THE MINES.
Wliat tti« Spirit* of Good Luck did to
Jiick ItIchard n—A Tragedy of the
Mines Retold.
A Carbondale (Pa.) letter says:
Most old miners believe that a “ good
luck spirit’ lurks in every mine, and
thf t at a sound of wiiistling it flies and
leaves the miners at the mercy of tne
spirits of evil. II ill befalls any of the
wo kmen that day, the believers in the
superstition ascribe its cause entirely
to the frightening away of the good
luck spirit by the fatal whistle.
In 1840 there was a great mine disas
ter at this place. Several miners were
buried in one of ths Delaware and
Hudson Canal company’s mines by a
sudden caving in of the roof. Al
though the cause of the caving was
known to have been a lack of proper
support by pillars and timbers, at least
one old miner, a survivor of the disas
ter, still living here, has always main
tained, and still maintains, that it-was
caused by a “dare-devil miner,” named
Jack Richards, whistling in the mine
while working with his gang, against
the protests of his comrades. Richards
was a skeptical young Welshman, who
ridiculed all the superstitions of his
fellow-workmen. With the old miner
mentioned above and fifteen others, he
was working in the mine, a mile from
tire entrance, on the day of the catas
trophe. The mine was well known to
be scantily propped, and the miners
were “robbing” it preparatory to its
abandonment. He is described as hav
ing been a merry fellow, fond of teasing
his companions. On this occasion he
suddenly laid down his pick, and an
nounced to his fellow work-men in the
chamber that he intended to “ whistle
them up the ‘Rigs o’ Barley, ) 11 The
miners were aghast at the thought of
Richards thus deliberately flying in the
face of mine luck, and they begged of
him not to chase the good luck spirit
awav He laughed at their fears, and
with clear, loud notes made the cham
ber ring with the lively Scotch air.
Not content with that, says the old
miner, shuddering at this late day over
the sacrilegious temerity of the merry
Welshman, he rattled off a jig known
by the miners as the “Devil Among
the Tailors,” and ended by telling the
good luck spirit to “ take a dance to
that, and be blowed to it.” None of the
miners could speak for some time.
Some of them tried to go to work again,
but the fear of disaster was so strong
upon them that they all made prepara
tions to quit the mine. The old miner
who recalls this incident says that he
had a brother and a son working in
another mine, and he made up his mind
to go to them, tell them of Jack Rich
ard’s foolhardiness, warn them of its
consequences, and escape with them
from the mine. Jack Richards could
pot convince any of them of the child
ishness of their intended course.
Suddenly, while they were gathering
up their tools, a noise like the sound of
distant thunder came to the ears of the
agitated miners. They knew too well
what the 30Und presaged. The roof was
“ working,” and a cave-in threatened.
The miners turned to Jack and charged
him with bringing disaster upon them
by his defiance of the good luck spirit
of the mine. Jack replied that if the
roof was falling it was because of in
sufficient support, and, not because of his
whistling, and knowing the danger that
encompassed them all, he counseled h s
comrades to lose no time in “ getting
atop.” But before they could take tho
first step toward reaching the surface a
second shock ran through the mine.
This time it was like a clap of thunder
near the earth. It was followed by a
crash that could be made out by the
falling masses of rock and coal from the
roof, and by a gust of wind that hurled
the miners against the jagged walls of
their chamber. Then the mine fell in
all about them, and the seventeen
miners and the car-horse were im
prisoned behind a wall of f illen coal and
rock, in a space notmore than forty feet
square. Their lights were extinguish id,
and there was not a match in the party.
With death awaiting them in one of its
worst forms, they cursed Jack Richards,
and one of the miners tried to find him
in the dark to brain him with a pick.
To asertain whether any of the gang
had been killed by the falling coal the
name of each one was called by one of
ihe miners. All responded but Jack
Richards. He w:i3 found dead, half
buried beneath the wall of rock and
coal. The miners gave themselves up
to despair, as they did not dream it was
possible for any aid to reach them from
without, and to dig their way through
a mile oi rocky debris was a task they
knew was hopeless. Among the im
prisoned miners was a young man
named Boyden. He was a son of Alex
ander Boyden, the superintendent of
the mine, and, like his lather, was a
man ot great nerve and courage. He
encouraged his imperiled companions
with the Assurance that the air in the
mine wculd not be poisoned by the gases
for at least two days, and that as long
as the horse’s body lasted they need not
starve. He said that his father would
leave nothing undone to rescue all who
were shut in the mine, and that, mean
time, they themselves could aid his ef
forts by digging out to meet him. Only
three picks could be found, the others
being buried beneath the coal. With
these the men wentto work with a will.
Those who had no picks worked with
their hands in digging into the barrier
between them and their freedom. The
body of poor Jack Richards was un
covered and laid tenderly in a safe place
in the chamber. The horse seemed to
understand the terror of the situation,
and gave voice to frequent piteous
The men worked for hours, many of
them working the flesh from their fin
gers in tho sharp coal. Some of them
lost all heart, and threw themselves
upon the damp floor of their under
ground prison and tewai’e! their fate
Suddenly a ray of light broke throuaii
a small opening in the wall. Teen a
lantern was pushed through, followed
by a man’s head. Tho man cried out:
“ Is there a man here that is aliveP ” A
glad slioutfrom the miners was the re
ply. The man pulled himself through the
opening into the chamber. It was
Alexander Boyden, the superintendent.
Tlte miners took him up in their arms,
wept tears of joy, and kissed the man
whom they believed had come to de
liver them. Mr. Boyden had found his
way to the spot where the miners were
imprisoned by crawling along a narrow
passage that had been left in the falling
coal and rock by the lodging of roof
timbers all along the way. It required
a struggle for hours to make the perilous
journey! He did not expect to find one
man alive in the chamber, his great de
sire being to rescue the body of his so”,
ii possible, and save it from being de
voured by rats. He soon had the
miners in readiness to follow him back
toward the mouth of the mine. He took
the dead body of Jack Richards on his
back and led the way, and two hours
afterward the miners were in the arms
of wives,parents and sweethearts on top.
Richards had no relatives but a crippled
sister, who was dying with consump
tion. She died the next day. The
brother and son of the narrator of this
tragic incident and twelve other miners
were never found. Three days after the
fall, mine boss Hosie, who had been in
a distant part of the mine when the roof
caved in, emerged from its depths,
worn to a skeleton. With his pick he
had dug his way for more than a mile
through an almost solid wall, without a
taste of food or a drop of water to
strengthen and sustain Liiu.
This mine tragedy forms one of the
favorite narratives of the old miners of
this region, and, after relating it to in
quiring visitors, they never fail to warn
them not to whistle if they intend going
down in a mine.
Akout the Hair.
The cause of gray hair is the destruc
tion of the top of the papillae, or life and
color-giving bulbs at the root of the
hair. Not only old age, but nervous de
bility or exhaustion arising from over
work or dissipation, will cause the
color ot the hair to cease, and there are
many instances on record of the hair
being turned suddenly white by a
ireat shock to tne nervous system,
among the best known being that of the
unfortunate Queen Marie Antoinette.
sometimes Tt has also been stated its original|,:olor that ha/jwill
resume
again, as in the famous case of|tlaza
relia. Nazarelia. a man 105 yoa- < old,
was, in 1774, at Vienna, presented by
nature with a new set of teeth and a
restoration of the black hair of his
youth; also Sir John Sinclair, a Scotch
man, dying at 110, njoiced in a youth
ful head of hair during the latter years
of his life. “Variegated hair,’ which
is'alternately banded black and while, is
noted among the hirsute curiosities oi
nature, and green and blue hair have
been described by some authorities; but
these colors owe their production to the
influence of surroundings in which tlieir
subjects live, the green hair belonging
to those who work in copper mines, and
blue to those whose occupation is cobalt
ruining. Workers in indigo also have
blue hair. In Tiipoli and Turkey tire
ladies paint the hair of their children a
vermilion color.
A Snake Whipped by a Rabbit.
A few days ago, whilst riding in the
mountain, Mr. Fogg’s attention was
called to a certain spot by a peculiar
sound, caused by some animal in dis
tress. Mr. Fogg,; upon examination,
found a black sna e had secured in its
coil a young rabbit and was attempting
to prepare for its dinner the little crea
ture, after the mode of procedure tie
snake always follows. After a little
while its attention was called to another
spot by the approach of tne mother
rabbit, who, bristled and ready for the
fight, attacked the snake until he was
put to flight and released her young.
Like a great general the old rabbit fol
lowed close upon the enemy, biting the
snake until he secured himself by craw 1
ing into his den in the hollow of a tree.
—Jilue Ridje ( Va.,) Ee/to.
They Can Show You the Snake.
Thomas Deford, who lives near Bal
timore, relates a first-clas3 snake story,
wherein a water-snake, fifteen inches
long, which was found imbedded in a
cake of ice gathered perhaps eighteen
months ago, was restored to life when
exposed to the sun. The ice was taken
from the ice-house on the place, and the
snake was seen in the center of a large
block. It was cut with a pick, and was
as stiff as a bone. When exposed to the
sun for some minutes, however, it be
gan to wriggle, and after a time started
off for the grass. It was caDtured and
placed alive in a large glass bottle, and
will be shown alive the incredulous.
A paper has been started in the un
settled region of Minnesota known as
“Brown’s Valley," and its editor, S.
W. Frazier, says that “it starts out in
the presence of about twenty or thirty
dusky brethren and sisters, who have
filled up the office to see the first print
ing press in Traverse county at work,
and very likely the first they ever saw
anywhere.”
It is estimated that over $10,000,000
a year are expended in private horticul
ture in Great Britain and Ireland,
The ideal newspaperman is one whose
brain is crammed solid fullof all things
classical, social and political, whose
pen can reel off poetry, sentiment and
sense to order, and into whose presence
we should come with feelings of awe in
spired by overpowering genius; the
real newspaper man is a worn-out frag
ment of humanity, who carries a sickly
smile significant of hope d fsrrcd and
financial depression, and wears a sev
enty-ftve-cent alpaca coat.—-Noe Haven
