To Insure Miners
.
The Ligonier coal company of Greensburg, Pa., whose works are near Latrobe, has arranged with the Guarantors liability and indemnity company, of Philadelphia, to insure their miners against death or accident without any coast whatever to the miners. In case of death the miner will get $500, and in the event of accident one-half wages. This is the first move in this direction taken by operators in this county, and is bound to prove popular.
