acquit itself. In scenic effects. dramatic
interest, comedy, pathoS and general ex-

greatest success. Gus Homer, the drama

DIED FROM EFFECTS OF FALL.
james Gallagher Breathed His Last
Yesterday Morning.

james Gallagher. the man who fell
$50 feet down the Leggett's Creek
shaft. died at 8 o'clock yesterday morn
ing He had BEEN delirious since his
fearful fall, and never regSined perfect
consciousness.
1t is mysterious how he could have
got through the safely cage at the top,
1t being in its proper place. The only
feasible theory is that he tried to reach
the carriage as it was descending, AMI
rot being in time vaulted over the
gate and on to the roof of tie carriage; :;
missing his footstep he fell and was
hurled against the bumpers In the
shaft all the way to the Diamond vein,
whom he tumbl,d off the carriage to
the landing.
Men have been known to descend the
shaft by jumping on the roof Of the
carriage. although it is in direct viola
ton Of the mine laws. 1t is also not
unusual to SEQ men jump on the car
riage after it starts TO descend
Coroner Kelley empanueled a jury
which will meet at $50 today in the
Office OF Mine Inspector Rolsrick, at
Providence, to hear testimony in the
case.
