The engine house, store house, valuable machinery and several mine cars were destroyed. Had the 400 employes been working in the mines the loss of life would have been very large, as air would have been shut off.

Dickinxini, Xurih DtkUt, Pre. The Xiuth ward of Johnstown is suf fering from an aw ful pest In the shape of millions of worms, which cover all the lawns and grass in the vicinity. The worms simply eat all the grass, and cannot, so far as known, be ext'rpatei by scalding water, lime or poison. They are of an un known species and are rapidly spreading They have caused considerable anxiety to owners of lawns, and the results of their apacity cannot yet be estimated. The pjst has also reached Altoona and the lawns and trees which have required years of careful attention have been destroyed in a day.

Xo poison which will destroy an ordinary insect has any effect ou this on this one.

Rata Ate Her Boary. The Pittsburg Commercial Oazctte of Saturday says: Mrs. Mary E. Bennett, the old woman who was found dying from neglect in a one-room frame shanty at 311 Lacock street, Allegheny, wa9 yesterday removed to the poor farm from the Allegheny general hospital. Before she departed she notilied the authorities that she had money hoarded in two old trunks In one corner of her bed room.

An examina tion of her effects by the charity officials yesterday afternoon revealed sufficient proof to show that if the money is not hidden away now, that some time recently the old lady possessed considerable. Fragments of bills, representing United States currency iu various denominations, were picked up on the floor. The paper appear ed to have been gnawed by rats. The investigation of the bouse brought to lisht many interesting things about the old lady aud her past life to show that she had seen better days. In the two trunks were contained many articles of clothing.

such as old dresses, once of a costly mate rial, and made in the fashion of 1850. There were three of these dresses. A num ber of photographs, the likeness of different relatives, shows she was well connect ed. Her own picture taken when she was a young lady, presents a sad contrast to the withered being now dependent upon charity. It is an inteligent face and a lovely one.

One etter shows that Mrs. Bennett's husband was an orderly in the Mexican war and that he was honorably discharged. She also had two sons in the late war, both of whom were killed near the battle of Murfreesboro. The letters bearing on these subjects are quite pathetic. One, written just previous to a skirmish, pre dicted trouble with the enemy, nnd the writer, who was one of the sons, asked for certain favors providing be was killed.

The woman's miiden name was Mary E. Jones and her place of birth was Ebens burg, Cambria county. She is now nearly tio years of age. There Is nothing in the mass of letters to indicate how she came to live alone or where her relatives are located. A description of the one-roomed house after ber departure makes Its hard to real ize how she lived so long in the midst of so much dirt and vermin.

The rats that inhabit the place have become so used to the presence of human beings that they do not tear the intrust on of strangers. It was hard to take a step yesterday over the floor without coming In contact with one of the many rat that dwell there. They were on the bed and ran all over the floor, squeaking and fight ing. The flies swarmed about the dishes and dirty clothes. The very odor of the place would breed disease.

The trunks were penetrated by rat holes and the contents would show that the ani mals had eaten any money that might have been in them. The pieces of cur rency were all small bits. A portion of (5 and $10 bills was discovered among the fragiueuts found. It is probable that the old lady received a pension regularly. Letters from the pension department at Washington would Indicate this.

Her rent, which was 6 per tnonts, was paid In advance, even includ log this month. A further search of her home will be made to-day. The officials of St. Vincent's i-ollege have received from Washington thediplo mas and medals awarded to that institu tion by the educational board of the Col ombian exposition. fl Estate TraaalVrs.
