. A terrible explosion took place on We afternoon of Friday, 3rd, in £he Quater coal-pit, Dunipace, Denny, near Stirling, belonging to Messrs £aird and Co. By'^tfclofckrKfc of the men had been brought to the bank, but id could not be got at. These were png'aged at the dock "section, tbe seat of the explosion, and the worst fears were entertained for their safety. Exploring parties at once started off, although the section was in a dangerous state. It is a stoop for room working. This pit is 140 fathoms deep, and the new dook is nearly- 400 fathoms from the bottom of the shaft. A horse was found dead at the mouth of the dook, and an explorer, overcome by after* damp, had to be brought to the bank. The last of the bodies was recovered on Sunday. , The 13 victims were buried on Monday. Among the mourners were eight widows and 18 fatherless children.
WARNER'S "SAFE" CURE CURES KIDNEY, URINARY AKD LIVER DISEASES and their developments, DYSPEPSIA, JAUNDICE AND GENERAL DEBILITY. THOUSANDS OF TESTIMONIALS IN PROOF OF ITS EFFICACY • EFFECTSSAFE, CURE. PERMANENT. Roma, Queensland, Ist August, 1894. From personal experience of the valuable properties of Warner's Safe Cure, I feel no hesitation in advising persons having liver disease to take that medicine in preference to any other. For a long time I endured terrible suffering from the complaint. From pains under theshoulder blades, down the back, and in my chest and sides I could get no rest day or night ; my appetite failed, and I became so weak and worn out that I could do no work of any kind. After spending much time and money in other directions to no profit, I started to take Warner's Safe Cure, and am thankful to say that I have thereby quite recovered my usual health.
