Death or Mrs Eaawley.

Mrs. A. Fl. Hawley, of Smith
Valley, died at her home in the
Valley last Saturday. Mrs. Haw-
ley was aged 80 years and had
been married 81 years. She had
been failing for a year or two past,
and it was old age that she died of
simply passed away. She leaves
a husband, aged "a years, and an
adopted daughter, Mrs. L. R. Ames,
of Smith Valley. Mrs. Hawley
was native of New York State,
and came to California in 1854
with her husband. Mr.. Hawley
and his wife moved to Smith Valley
in 1867, and have resided there
ever since. The funeral of deceased
took place from the home Tuesday
of this week, and was attended by
every resident Of the valley. The
Rev. Mr.. King conducted the to
neral service, and paid an eloquent
tribute to the virtues of deceased.
Mrs. Hawley was held in the
highest esteem by all who knew her;
she was charitable, kind and loving,
and her loss is a sad blow to her
devoted husband. The old couple
lived quiet life and were as de-
voted to each other as when first
they assumed the relationship Of
man and wife. Mr. Hawley and his
wife were prominent people in Cali
fornia in early days, he being a
member of the Legislature of that
State from Eldorado county in 1859

Injured by q Blast.

Thursday afternoon, while work
ing in the Vivian mine in Silver
City, Alex Armstrong met with a
very severe accident by the prema-
ture explosion of six holes in the
face of the tunnel Alex. and Dave
Armstrong were working in this
tunnel, which is in about 700 feet.
Seven holes had been put in, and
about A o'clock in the afternoon
Alex. was splitting them. Dave had
started to leave the tunnel. Alex.
had spitted all but the last fuse,
and while he was doing this the first
hole went off The blast knocked
him down and rendered him un-
conscious. He luckily fell in such
position that the other five blasts
shot away from him when they went
off directly after the first one ex-
ploded. Dave Armstrong heard
the shots, and when Alex. failed to
show up, he surmised something
was wrong and went back into the
tunnel. He found Alex. unconsci-
GUS, and tried to drag him out, but
the smoke prevented. He then went
for assistance, which was soon pro-
cured, and the injured man was
taken to the Bonanza Hotel and a
physician summoned. At first it
was thought that Alex. had received
broken leg and that one eye was
blown out, but last night it was re-
ported that his injuries were not
serious. No bones were broken,
and he is only severely bruised and
cut. His escape from instant death
seems miraculous.
