EEH:nF4RLE EScAPr from nE.Tu.--
At about $ o'clocl, this morning three
men, including the foreman of the Silver
Hill mine, in lower Gold Hill, nat with
most miraculous escape from death.
They had barely stepped on tho cage, at
TIE top Of the shaft, when they were
precipitated with great rapidity to the
water in the pump 1t the bottom, q dis
taucc OF $50 feet. Notwithstanding the
imminent peril in which tie party were
involved, Mr.. Ford. the foreman, had
sufficient presence Of mind TO throw up
one side Of the bonnet Of the cage,
thereby preventing the Iaen from being
buried under twelve hundred feet of wire
cable, weighing at least a ton. His
prompt action il the matter saved the
lives of the entire party. The men, who
were in the center compartment Of the
shaft, escaped drowning by crawling
through into tie pump compartment,
from whence they were hoisted to the
surface of the mine. Mr.. Ford, while
in the act Of raising one section Of the
bonnet, sustained a severe bruise upon
his forehead. One Of the other men had
the scalp on the top Of his head cut
open for distance Of some three inches.
DR.. Hail sewed up the wound. The eX-
act cause of the accident Is not clearly
understood, but is probably due to the
reel getting loose somcEow.-Go.i M

into an inner room, where the leave
taking of friends on his part was me-
chanical, he not seeming to see any one.
His son embraced and kissed him, and
friends whispered TO him, seemingly IN
