A CLOSE CALL.
A Coach Full Of Passengers Rolls Down q
FOrty-FOot Embankment.

From Mr.. Linnell, who arrived yesterday
from Missoula, we learn of a very remarkable
occurrence on the night of the 9th inst, near
that place. The Missoula coach which left
Helena on Thursday was passing along a very
heavy and dangerous graded road in the can
on, about forty feet from the surglng stream
below, and when at a high and narrow point
in the road some rocks rolling down the
mountain side from above, frightened the
horses which swung suddenly around, thereby
upsetting the coach. Four passengers were
inside, whose lives were in imminent peril, as
the wagon at once began to roll down towards
the river, which was rushing through the
gorge at a terrible rate. 1t is stated that the
coach turned completely over no less than
four times, and would eventually have found
a lodging in the river bed, had it not been for
a very large boulder lying near the stream,
which fortunately prevented the fatal plunge.
MIRACULOUS as it may appear, none of the pas
sengers were seriously injured, and having
thoroughly assured themselves that the coach
had struck bedrock" they got out, and
INDUCED in a general shudder at the narrow
ness of their escape. Had the vehicle turned
over once more, it would undoubtedly have
been swept away and its occupants drowned.
As near as can be ascertained the accident
was unavoidable.

REPLY.
mr. fsrdee Makes a Few Answcr,ur p.-
MARKS.

Editor Butte MINER:
Allow me to say a few words in reply TO Mr..
oareys communication in the MINER of April
9TH: 1Api''
Ahe facts Of the case demand that I reiter-
a'e my statement in the Herald that Mr.
risher designed n erected the Algonouin
MILL and that Mr. Carey had nothing to do
WIN the erection Of the furnace. Mr.. Carey,s
statement that Mr.. Fishers knowledge ofmill-
ing only dates from his (Carey's) departure
IRON the Algonquin mill, Mr.. Carey knows to
De false, for it is well known to all mill men
IN Montana that Mr.. Fisher in 1876 erected
ana Tor some months operated the Northwest
mill now standing idle at Tower.
My statement in regard to the per cent saved
stands upon the battery assays and bullion
product, which is usually considered pretty
solid foundation, and had Mr.. Carey, instead
OF carefully destroying, left in the Company's
assay ohlce, as is customary, samples of bat
terry tailings and chlorinations, 1 would have
further evidence that my statement is correct.
Ihe little silver left in the pans and settlers
and IN a few tons of flue dust could not posi-
bly, raise the bullion more than one per cent,
which would still leave a wide margin be-
tween the bullion product and his paper per
cent.
AS Mr.. Carey took away with him his gang
OF experts and lis exclusive knowledge of
roasting, matchmaking and assaying, it was
to be expected that the Algonquin would at
once prove a failure and have to hang up I'M
til a new paper expert could be imported but
in spite of our ignorance We have continued
to run, and during the month of March, in
working the same amount and vein of ore
worked by Mr.. Carey in February, we have
saved ten thousand dollars more in bullion
than he did, and at the same time saved the
salary paid Mr.. Carey, and made a further
ddily saring of twenty-five hundred pounds OF
salt and sic cords of 1cood.
Mr.. Carey says in closing: off necessary l
can satisfy Mr.. Pardee wherein his interests
are SUBSCRIBED by his av0nt of knowledge"
l ain satisfied, and will take him at his
word and admit that it is through my ignor-
ance of his value that my interests are best
promoted. Respectfully,

The Park Road.

The Park road between Butte and Helena
is reported almost impossible. The snow is
from three to five feet deep, and owing to the
recent warm weather it is so soft that the stage
horses sink through and can make hardly
any progress. In many cases the horses have
to be dug out, or the coach unloaded before
the journey can be resumed. The passen-
gers who are compelled to make the trip in
varlably have a rough time, and usually
have to walk many miles through the park
besides assisting the horses in some cases to
pull the load out of bad places. 1t seems to
he the general superstition that the park road
will have to he abandoned for a few weeks
until some of the snow disappears.

was nothing remarkable about his persona

to be a teamster. But he wasn't. He said
"Boys, you may think Pm a queer sort of q

"You don't mean to say you are one Of

ly.
"Not MUCH" he replied, Indignantly. "I,m
a boss trainer, and my equal don't live in tbe
United States. I'm going to challenge the
winner OF the long-distance race next week.
but I've been studyin' SO hard on the boss

fered 1000 drinks to-day, but didn't take
none; good evenin'," he concluded "please
say something about me in the paper" And
he went out. The name of the poor fellow,
we believe, is John 3. Henderson. He is in
utterly destitute circumstances, and, as he
says, is half crazy. The proper officers ought
to see that he is taken care of.

MI. Carey Comes Rack at Mr.. l'ard,

Editor Butte MINER:
Through your valuable columns allow me
to make a brief reply to Mr.. Pardee's COM
munication published in your issue of this
morning. His whole TRADE I will answer by
simply giving a copy of a certificate which he
voluntarily signed the day prior to my leaving
P~hilipsburg. 1t is as follows:
PHIL1PsBURG, March 6, 1880.
This is to certify that [ am using a sixty
inch Howells improved White telescope
cylinder chloridizing furnace in the Algon-
quin mill, which has, since first starting w,
worked to my entire satisfaction. The ore is
very base, so much SO that it has heretofore
required from fifteen to twenty hours roasting
in a Bruckner. This ore | am now roasting
in the Howell furnace in less than thirty
minutes, at the rate of from thirty to forty
tons in twenty-four hours 1t easily keeps
ahead of twenty stamps, and chloridizes to
over 80 per cent. l consider it a complete
success and the furnace for roasting ore.
Up to date it has been in charge of Mr.. NJ.
Carey, and our battery and failing assays for
that time show a saving of 80 40 per cent.
l am pleased to be able to testify to results so
entirely satisfactory. j. K. PARDEE,
Sup't Algonquin Co.
The public will compare the above with his
communication of this morning and decide
what value to set on his statements.
