AN accident happened on the
Narrow Gauge road last Thursday
while a train was on its way to
Galena. 1t seems that a young
man named Harker was standing
on the platform of a coach contrary
to train officials. and while the train
was near the crossing on the Ga
lena river, be was leaning beyond the
car viewing the surroundings, when
he was either struck by the
bridge or lost his balance, aud fell
into the water. The alarm was
given, and as soon as possible the
train was stopped and backed up
to the spot, when Wm, Gleason,
a brakeman, quickly sprang off the
car, divested himself cf most Of his
clothing and plunged iuto the
water to rescue Mr.. Harker, who
had sunk ont Of sight. BY diving,
Mr.. Gleason was able to bring the
unfortunate man to the shore. He
was in an unconscious state, and
nearly dead, but was finally resusci
tated by chatting and other rene
dies. He was taken to Galena aud
placed under medical treatment,
but his chances for recovery are
reported as slim. p. S. - Since
above was set he has died.

On Tuesday last a great sensation
was caused in Highland by the sudden
arrival of a genuine female woman, ac-
companied by her husband. This being
the first arrival of a feminine on Roar
ing Fork, every mar in the camp turned
N TO see her, and they could hardly be-
lieve their eyes. The couple went in
from Leadville by way Of Taylor River.
The man carried on his back q healthy
infant and Il heavy load Of provisions.
etc, besides, while the pIucky wife had
twenty-five pounds of flour AS her por-
ton of the luggage. The man seemed
completely worn out, but the woman
appeared fresh and vigorous, although
snow and sun had spoiled her complex
ion somewhat. As soon as the miners
recovered from their establishment, they
rendered the woman the best block in
the city, giving her the choice, and
agreeing that if the block selected had
any buildings on it they should be hers.
