The accidental flooding of the Anne. icus

to rescue the unfortunate men, but little
hope is entertained.

worked for a number of years. Coursing
eastward is struck the Americus. where
two Italian miners, whose names have
not been learned, were at work in the
lower part of the shaft. They were both
drowned. In its course the water di-
verted to the Sleepy Hollow mine. the
easteily portion of the Fisk vein. Four
teen men were working in the Sleepy Hoi-
low. three of whom escaped. A courier
was sent to the adjacent mines and all
their workmen escaped.

The sounding of the whistle gave the
first alarm of the disaster, ana soon after
the building of the Sleepy Hollow mine
was SO packed with the families and
friends of the imprisoned miners and the
hands to render assistance that it was
almost impossible for the WORK of at
tempting a rescue to proceed.
Deputy::Sheriff Williams finally arrived
on the ground, the building was cleared
and practical miners offered their services

On reaching the surface he was almost in

Extra water buckets were sent for and
brought to the mine, which are now

water. The managers of the properties
were on the ground and were very assidu-
GUS in their efforts to relieve the men.
The two in the Americus are without
doubt drowned. Those in the Sleepy Hol-

Ever since Prof. Koch startled the world

Hotel and Surgical Institute put in a claim

and used, i'll his extensive practice, that

OF consumption when taken in all its early
stages. Time has proved that his assertion
was based on facts gained from experience.
His Golden Medical Discovery has cured
many thousand people in all parts of the
world, and DR.. Pierce invites all interested
to send to him for free book which gives
the names, addresses and photographs of
many prominent people who have willingly
testified to the marvellous curative proper
ties of his Golden Medical Discovery. !"

WASHINGTON, Aug. 30. - While
pleased with the turn that our diplomatic
relations in China has taken and satished
with the present representation OF our
navy in tho waters OF that country. the
naval authorities here are still looking
forward with eager interest to the COM
pleton of three light draught gunboats
now in process Of construction at New
port News, Va. These vessels are design
ed especially for the Chinese service and
are expected to be of great value in coast
navigation ami in ascending the Chinese
rivers. 1t is felt that with so many in
terests centering in China as at present.
it is important that the United States
should be prepared, not only to protect
American citizens but if the opportunity
offers, to promote American commerce.
These vessels are provided with lover
hangs for the protection of their pro-
peliers against the drift wood and snags
in the Chinese rivers and it is believed
will be found to be especially adapted for
serving both these purposes. They will
also Joy the advantage of being operat-
ed more economically than the large ves-
sells and of being more easily. protected

At the power house everything is in
readiness to begin work. The two giant
Haro oilton .Corliss engines are in running
order, either one of which with its 300
horse power would be sufficient to
furnish power for the entire road.
The electric plant consists of two cleo
tic generators of POO kilo-watts. or 267
horse power. The difficult engineering
feat Of placing the apparatus so as to run
steadily from the outset was accom- mpllshed
on the first trial.

BANDIT BRADY IS A BRICK
The Notorious Bandit Tranquil as I
Summer Sunset
He Has No Friend, No Chum, No Relative, No
Acquaintance Whom He Cares to See.
But He Has Fortune Hid

SACRAMENTO, Aug. 29.-An officer
who came down from Marysville today
informed a reporter that Jack Brady, the
train robber who is now in Jail at that
place. has been informed that the money
stolen from the express train near Sheep
Camp in Octo ber last has been found and
carried away.
Brady laughed quite heartily and ex-
pressed the opinion that it had been re-
covered by the detectives.
The officers suggested that it was not
likely that if the money had been re-
covered by detectives they would leave
the canvas bags lying on the ground.
They.would undoubtedly take them along
for use as evidence.
"Then the money must have heen
taken by tramps," remarked Brady.
The bandit did not manifest any signs
of anxiety when the newspaper accounts
OF the alleged discovery of the money
were given to him. The officer who had
the talk with the notorious bandit is oi
the opinion that Brady knows just where
the money is and that ne proposes using
it to the best advantage in saving his
neck. He cannot hops to escape i'm

The belief is expressed that if he really

he will hold it until he can make some
terms with the express company by which
he may escape the gallows.
The officials of the county jail at Marys-
willie are keeping very close guard over
Brady, as their prison is weak one and
escapes are frequent. The worry and ex-
pense Of capturing him we're too great to
permit him to get away through lack OF
vigilance on the part of the keepers. An
official who recently had talk with
Brady describes him as 'brick." He
has maze no requests whatever to CON-
municate with anyone except his lawyers,
