H EVENING NEWS.

w -
ing about one hundred and eighty feet
from the top, they were surprised on
beholding a something drop on the plat
form, just between them, and quite a
s%catteration Of different substances,
such as hair, bones, blood, and entrails.
In this plight they came to the surface,
where they found the brakeman and
engineer in n world of bewilderment.
On inquiriug what was up, the TWO
miners were informed that u little dog
had fallen accidentally down the smart.
This solved the mystery and they point
ed TO the platform of the cage, and
about all that remained OF the poor Purp
TO what was scattered over their per,
sons. Brakesmen and carmen shouid
not allow dogs or cats about the tops OF
any of our hosting works. Some very
serious accidents to human life have oc-
Cured bv tolerating dogs about. We
remember Que that occurred nearly four
Years ago, in the Michigan mine, where
a large and heavy dog fell down a shaft,
Jus, as two miners were coming up on u
bucket-the animal falling upon and
Knocking both of them Off the bucket
down the shaft, killing them instantly.
Men in charge of the top of hosting
works cannot be toe careful of the lives
Of other people, who may be down in
the dark depths, and upon whom they
depend 10 keep off danger where there
is daylight.
MINING AccIpESr.-Yesterday, in the
Overman mine, quite a serious accident
occurred TO one Of the workmen, named
John Quinlau. The time for n shin OF
hands having arrived, three Of the
miners in one of the lower levels mount
cd the cage, and just as y fourth one
was stepping on, be heard a noise up
the shaft, aud lodged back, at which
instant u piece of inch board, ten or
twelve feet long. and eight or ten inches
wide, fell down among the three men on
the cage, hitting Quinlan on the left side
OF the head, tearing of II piece of scalp
several inches wide, aud also striking
his left shoulder in 4 slanting stroke.
The unfortunate man was knocked
seuseless, and was brought TO the sur
face in that condition, bleeding quite
profusely from the wound on his head.
Ut. NeooeF was seut Lo'' "uu 'euuetSN
medical assistance. To-day, we under
stand, the wounded man is in rather y
precarious condition, the side where the
board struck his shoulder being quite
paralysed. The board which fell down
the shaf, was n piece of what is known
among miners AS lining-perpendicular
boards mailed on the corners OF the smart
