* Barrackville, West Virginia mine explosion

The front page has one column headings: "33 PROBABLY KILLED IN MINE EXPLOSION" "Ignition of Gas Is Believed Cause of Blast Wrecking West Virginia Shaft" and more. (see) First report coverage on the coal mine explosion at Barrackville, West Virginia. Always nice to have notable events in history reported in this World famous publication.
Other news, sports and advertisements of the day. Complete in 44 pages, a little irregular along the spine nice condition.
