about eight o'clock, resulting in the death of
one workman (Joseph Gunther). and the
wounding of several others. 1t appears that
some time ago, ".ifting blast'' had been put
In, and it was enormously supposed to have
exploded at the time other blasts were set of.
Gunther and his assistants were drilling YER
tical hole right oyer the old blast, and the
point OF the drill struck the cap of the old
blast, exploding 1t. He was thrown into the
air with the life almost crushed out OF his body.
He barely breathed, but his sufferings con-
tinued until the next morning at eight O'Clock,
when death relieved him.
Inc two assistants were also injured, but not
severely, and will be all right again in few
days. The deceased leaves wife and three
children to mourn his terrible death.
When the accident occurred, all the hands
quit work, and it was lucky thing they did
so. About four o'clock Tuesday morning a
mass OF rock fifty feet long, and weighing
many tons, fell from the roof, and masses

have been. 1t is almost enough to make one
wish there were no such things as mines in the

The Tax Rate Reduction.

Referring to the tax-rate reduc ion, the
Gazette of yesterda says:
"If they (the Board of Education)
had asked for the same amount as that
of last year the rate would not have
been increased five per cent
The Noaos furnishes Its readers with
the above !; but il will bear in mind the
fact that the Board of Education had re-
ceived for 1870 100000. 1t, there
fore, had more money than it needed
appropriated to it by the Democrats
Now, the tax-rate before the Democrats
took control of the City Council was
$1.20; they reduced it to $l.15 in 1879.
Therefore, had the Democratic Board of
Education just elected refused to return
the amount of money the City Council
asked, the tax rate would have remained
a. 10, but IT would not have been in.

quest of Council. Their doing this
enabled the Council to get what be.
longed to i. and what it had raised since
the Democrats came into power, and
therefore they reduced the tax rate from
$1.15 to $1.10. But had the Board o
Education still remained in the control
of the Republicans and refused TO concur
in the reasonable requests Of Counci
the tax rate would not have beer
