the Alta drift with refreshments for the
imprisoned miners. All wore ice hel-
nets to enable them to pass the belt of
thres hundred feet Of foul air between
the entrance and the drift The prison
ers were found in comparatively good
condition. They had turned the water
from the drift into their ice water keg-

compressed air pipe into barrel, and
standing around breathed the air thus
cooled as it arose through the water.
About midnight they were removed from
the drift, whistles along the lode signal
ling the event. The bodies Of Bennett

A CONTINGENT FEE.

A citizen had had occasion to consult
a lawyer regarding suit which he CON-
templated instituting. but of the def
mite outcome of which he was in q
doubt. He did not wish to pay q re-
tanning fee, because he was uncertain
of winning. The lawyer said he would
accept q contingent fee. The party
met Mr.. Burleigh sometime afterward
and asked him the definition of a con-
tingent fee.
"A contingent fee" jocosely said Mr..
BurleiRh, ''is this: If lawyer loses the
case he gets nothing. II he wins the
case you get nothing"
But" said the perplexed party,
scratching his head, II can't say that /
exactly comprehend you"
Il thought I was quite clear" said
Mr.. Burlelgh. who repeated what he
had said.
a"But ittssems that don't get any
thing in either event." said the man,
when his intellect had fully grasped the
situation.
