TERRIBLE CArAsrRopHE-Mr E. A. Miles.
Of Sacramento, and Mr.. Davidson, descend
cd the shaft Of the Home Copper Co., near
the Alabaster Cave, on last Sunday, to OK
anime the mine. They went down by means
Of ladder constructed against the timbering
Of the shaft During the afternoon, resi'
dents in the vicinity. d sco.ered tha. ,ha
house built over the shaft, was m flames, and
before the fire could be extingushed the
building WAS. destroyed, as we'll as portion
Of the wood work of the shaft. II WAS then
suspected that the two men were in the mine,
and attempts we're made to descend the
shaft. but the air WAS 80 bad that. it was
found impossible for men to 60 down any
depth. In making one Of these attempts
Mr.. S. Stein, an intelligent and active young
man, who had descended by means of the
windlass, became faint, from the foul air.
and fell from the tub to the bottom OF the
shaft. This made the third victim. After
several days Of unremitting labor, in forcing
pure air down the shaft with blacksmiths'
bellows and hose, men we're able to recover
the bodies Messrs Miles and Davidson
we're found in side drift about one hun
dred feet from the surface, lying with their
faces to the earth; and Mr.. Stein at the bot
tom Of the perpendicular shaft, some dis
tance lower. The top of his head was COM
pletely crushed.
The body Of Mr.. Miles WAS taken to Sac
rsmento for interment. Mr.. Davidson was
buried in Auburn on Wednesday. The fu'
neral Of Mr.. Stein took place here on Thurs
day, where be was buried with all the honors
and ceremonies of the Masonic fraternity, of
which be was respected member. lilo was
. native Of uollm Germany, aged about 80
years. and had been, for the last ten years,
resident of Wild Goose Flat, in El Dorado
