The news that the entombed miners are alive quickly spread through- out the little town, and in a short time the mouth of the Mahoning mine was crowded with men, women and children The ex- citement grew more intense each moment, and the crowd gathered so closely about the mouth of the pit that the coal and iron police were compelled to move them back. At 11 pm there were 1,000 people at the mine. Late to-night a man came out of the mine and said for some time the men at work in the Mahoning mine had not noard a sound.

The corner stone of the Kingston dry dock was laid at Kingston yesterday by Sir John Macdoneld in the presence of a great multitude. The following is a description of the dry dock : The dock proper. which is quarried out of solid main is 280 feet long, 37 feet on the floor, 80 feet wide on the top, 48 feet wide at the opening and 48 feet deep. The quarrying iuieurly com- pleted, there not being more than 1,000 cubic yards to remove. The contractors are N. K. and M. (Joiiley,_;fi,n built the docks at Quebec and Venoovm. The first sou was turned on the Sith oi “is; , 1889, and at once the construction of the eti'feruam, built to keep back the water. was bogun. It required 800,000 cubic yarlfs of material, l the greater part of whinh was moved by the company’s dredge St. Josefi.

One hundred men are at work here. The gate to the dock will be peculiar. It will he a large , iron box, which will slide across the front of the cavity and into a niche on the oppo- site side. The weight oi the water on the lake side will press it so tightly against the padding that leakage will be prevented. It forms a water tight compartment. The reason that the gate is a be; is this: if anything goes wrong with th»‘ side next the dock it'oan be repaired, wiggle the outer side keeps out the water. Then, again, when it recedes it goes into largo cavity, which is a little dock i.’ itsbif. and permits of being pumped out, so that the gate can be overhauled. The con. trivsnue is a good one, and is said to work admirably. The “first stone," which Will always be visible, is Gx3x3 fret, It weighs over six tons, and was out by Edward Doherty, of Belleville.

An erect bodily attitude is of vastly more importance to health than most people generally imagine, says the New York Ledger. Crooked bodily positions, main- tained for any length of time, are always injurious, whether in a sitting, standing or lying position, whether sleeping or wak- ing. To sit with the body leaning forward on the stomach, or to one side, with the heels elevated on a level with the hands, is not only in bad taste, but exceedingly detrimental to your health ; it orampsjhv stomach.presses the vital orgasm, Intel'- rupts the free motion or the chest and enfeehles the functions of the abdominal and thoracic organs, and, in fact, unbal- ances the whole muscular system. Many children become slightly humpbaoked or severely round-shouldered by sleeping with the head raised on a high pillow.
