Mark, who had been employed above ground for some time, was astonished, on being lowered in the new safety-cage, to find himselfon stepping out at the bottom in a spacious brick-arched vault, almostthe size of a railway terminus, well lighted by large glass lampssuspended from the roof. The machinery, both steam and hydraulic, looked in the most perfect order; the steel parts of the engine shininglike burnished silver. Trains of laden waggons were every now and thenarriving. First of all was he...ard a distant rumbling, with the "whirr"of the iron rope far back in the darkness. The rumbling sound grewlouder, and at last the train came in sight. A stalwart miner, with hislamp dimly twinkling slung at his waist, striding along holding in hisleft hand the iron tongs before mentioned, and having behind him a longtrain of waggons, gradually came into the light. On he went to the footof the shaft. Here a strong iron cage appeared, having three floors, one above the other. In front of this was a stage, on to which theleading waggon was run.
