a MINING HORROR.
Five and Z half Days In q Cave.

Mr.. Peter Coffey came in from Nevada
Gulch on Thursday night for DR.. Mitchell
and gave account Of one of the most re.
marEable mining accidents we have heard
Of. II appears that On Nevada Creek lived
remote from any other person, Mr.. VIM.
Cjeghorn, Il miner of intelligence and in.
dustrious habits. The mail carrier on last
Friday or Saturday in going by left his pa.
pcrs at the cabin, and wished to borrow a
mule from him. but seeing no one about,
went on his route. On returning on Thurs.
day he found the cabin still tcnantless, aud
the papers remaining where he had placed
them This unusual occurrence aroused
his suspicious. and remembering he had
seen tracks in the snow leading from the
cabin on his last trip. he searched for and
found them. and could find no returning
track. He followed them to drift in q
bar, found that there had been cave and
that Cleghorn was caught by it. Summon
ing help, the miners succeeded in reaching
and rcscuing the unfortunate miner about
sundown of Thursday. and Mr.. Coffey a
few minutes later started for Deer Lodge.
without asccrtaining many of the facts, as
ClcghOrn wandered in his mind at the
time he was exhumed, although he was
conscious and rational when Coffey left.
His head and chest were not caught in the
earth. but his hip joint WAS injured if not
dislocacd and his right leg crushed above
the ankle. The drift was only 4 few feet
below the surface, and he told them tina,
on Sunday he could distinctly hear the mi
ners walking and talking on the bar above,
while he lay there crushed. furnished for
foo and drink, in mortal pain, unable to
attract their a''ention-and thus he lay for
over days. The real horrors of the situa-
ton arc beyond expression. and if he lives.
as we hope he will, to tell his experience, it
will be story Of thrilling interest. Mr.. G.
is man Of powerful bu.ld-wcighs over
200 pounds--but it is said he was reduced
to a skeleton, when cxhumcd. DR.. Mitch
ell left Immediately to attend him, and We
trust good surgery will restore him to en-
joyment Of that life which endured in the
jaws Of q most horrible death.
DIR. Mitchell returned last evening.
He reports CIeghorn living and likely to re.
cover. His hip was dislocatcd. The dislo-
cation was reduced. Dr.. NJ. will amputatc
bis right leg below the knee. on Sunday.

n. r. r. Il. Survcys.-From gentleman
connected with the recent surveys we have
these items: The party recently under Mr..
Kneass. having finished THAR survey. was
dishandod at Helena. The party of Mr.
Rurdess completed the Ten Mile and Little
Blackfoot line to the Three Forks. Tho
length of the line from the initial to tho ter.
mnal point is 140 miles, or 29t miles shorte,
than the kncass line ria Deer Lodge pass.
Mr.. Burdess' party on returning to Helena
was reorganized, and sent to the Pipcstone
pass, where they now are surveying.
While we arc glad to see surveys over all
the other passes we trust the Caraboo and
North Boulder will not be neglected, a. that
route, ii surveyed, we think the instru.
ments will demonstrate to he the best of all
all things considered.

Homicide In DIackfoot. - On Monday
morning last James McCluskey shot and kill
ed Pat Manning in Blackfoot. 1t appears
there was some old grudge existing between
the parties relating back to the time of the
Smoot murder in '66, and that on Sunday
evening last fist fight occurred between
the parties in a saloon, IN which Manning
was whipped. 1t is said by some that Man
ming threatened on Monday morning to kill
McCluskey Oh sight, and that on the strength
Of this McCluskey armed himself, and when
they met turned loose. Others say it was
agreed between them in saloon to 20 out
on the street and fight it out with six. shoot
ers, and that on reaching the street McClus.
key got the drop on Manning and fired.
Which Of these is correct we cannot say.

The above facts were proven. On the ques.

carried into effect. If these are the facts,
those who hung him will he, and should be,
held to strict accountability before the
