A very interesting picture which, however, is not highly dramatic. Its chief value is in that it pictures what takes place in a mine immediately after an explosion. There is a slight love interest. The blind miner, now incapacitated for labor, leads the rescuers. They have oxygen helmets, but he refuses to put one on. He wants to be able to hear clearly so that he can lead to the gallery where his son-in-law is trapped. The imprisoned miners are rescued and resuscitated. The pictures of the coal mine were taken underground. It is instructive as well as interesting, and because of that we place it among the features. - The Moving Picture World, February 3, 1912
