4 Miners Terrible Fate.

We learn of the following accident
that happened to miner. a week ago
last Thursday, that was working in the
mines of Star District, from teamster.
It appears that the injured man, David
Reese, while preparing to load a hole,
held in one of his hands a couple of
giant powder caps, and in the other
box of caps and lighted candle. AS
he was going to set the box of caps
down, piece of the wick, it is thought,
fell on the caps held in his hand, ex-
ploding them, aud the conclusion then
exploded the box of caps held in the
other hand. There was noperson with
Reese at the time of the accident. but
the noise occasioned by the explosion
of the caps drew the attention of men
working in other parts of the mine,
who went To see what was the matter.
On reaching the place they found
Reese about four yards from his for
mer position, lie having been thrown
that distance. over a windlass, by the
explosion. He was unable tn move
and partially insensible. Both hands
Of the unfortunate man were almost
entirely severed from his arms. only
hanging by a single cord and piece
of the skin. The right arm was torn
off about midway between the elbow
and wrist, slanting toward the elbow.
The other was clean cut. There WAS
not particle of flesh remaining on his
hands. A deep cash was found aCross
the thigh of the right leg, and his face
was badly burned. With both hands
hanging in this way he was taken into
Milford. Il Phoebe Record.

A 1900. Ooo Blaze Near Eurelxa.

The Sentinel of the 18th gives the
following particulars of the burning
of the Geddes mill at Secret Canyon
last Sunday morning: At about 1O1s
o'clock last Sunday morning huge
cloud of smoke was seen arising south
of town some eight or ten miles. From
the manner in which it continued to
come to view it was evident that
the flames were of no small preten-
sions. Opinions as to its exact loca-
ton were freely offered until l o 'cleck,
when the news reached town that the
Geddes g. Bertrand mill in Secret Can
yon was a mass of ruins. How the
the fire originated is not definitely
known. Several miners are said to
have used the blacksmith shop close
by short time previous to sharpen
their drills and picks and 1t is be-
lieved the fire they left communities
ted with the structure. The blaze was
not discovered until it had gained
considerable Roadway. The cost of
constructing and equipping the mill
some five years ago is said to have been
100000. J. T. Gilmer is the princi-
pal loser. Hon. James g. Blaine and
Ex-Governor Ewing, of Ohio, are also
interested to considerable extent.
From a telegram received from an in
terested party in Salt Lake City last
evening it is believed the structure
was insured for nominal amount.
