For hours the scene at the mouth of the tunnel was With othes and hair awry, mothers, wives, sweethearts and children huddled toblown gether, weeping, wringing their hands. Many sat on shattered timbt-rrom the mine's mouth, insensible to their surroundings. The most frantic pushed to the edge of the gap and tried to force a way Into the stope. GREAT TIMBERS HURLED HIGH OVER THE TOWN. An expert who went almost to the sew nth level says the mine cannot possibly be cleared for a month.' It is feared that men in the lower levels were torn to pieces by the explorion, which hurled great timbers high over the town and 170) feet beyond the mouth of the stope.
