which he relates the particulars of the
recent fatality in the mine as follows:
AT 12:15 a. m. the shift, consisting of
Peter McGrath, Pusher, William Tug
giles, John Hahn and Charles o. John
son, all Park City men, blasted the cut.
having charged seven holes. Only five
OF these went off. The shift then went
to dinner; going down the shaft again
80 or 40 minutes after the charge had
been fired. They had been down about
an hour and had hoisted four or five
buckets when the missed hole went off,
instantly killing Hahn and Johnson,
and badly wounding Tuggles.
The station tender heard someone
call for help, and running into the
west drift, brought Ed Huffman, Hin
man and Carlo, who Immediately went
down the shaft, finding Tuggles cling
ing to the skids, and the other men
dead They Immediately hoisted Tug
giles TO the surface and then brought
up the other two.
THE doctor, after a thorough ex-
animation of Tuggles. found that none
of his bones were broken, excepting
one finger on his left hand; but there is
hardly square inch on his BODY that is
not cut more or less severely, and
hardly a stitch of clothing was left on
him. His eyes were badly cut, but the
doctor has great hopes of saving them
both 1t was a miracle that he was not
killed.
Mr.. McGrath, while eating his din
ner. had obtained permission to come
down town to have a deed acknowl-
edged, and he started down town when
the rest of the shift went down the
shaft, hence his life was saved.
At the coroner's inquest Mr. Tuggles
said:
We were all waiting for the bucket
to come down and at the time the
missed hole went off we were standing
looking at il. When Huffman let down
the bucket 1 exclaimed, my God, what S
happened
According to Tuggles, he claims
they were not picking at the hole;
hence our only conclusion as TO how it
happened is that the fuse hung fire for
that length of time
The coroners jury rendered a YER
dict as follows:
Deceased came to their deaths by A.
powder explosion in the shaft of the
Lucky Boy mine, which was purely ac-
cldental, no one being to blame"
MI stevenson then goes on to state
that the men were horribly mangled
but that they were carefully washed
and dressed, and buried with becoming
ceremonies.
Hahn belonged TO the Miners union
OF Park City. Johnson was also a
member, and was connected with the
ontario lodge A. o. U. w.

lows:
The upper tunnel of the Payne group
is now in about 800 feet with two and
one-half feet of ore the entire distance.
The lower tunnel is in 100 feet with a
good body of ore ranging from one to
four feet in width. The tunnels are about
140 feet apart, which gives a good amount
OF stopping ground. At present about 20
tons of high. grade ore is being shipped
per day from the Payne. A rock crusher
is to be put in which will do the work of
a dozen men now engaged in breaking
rock.

The uncertainty that exists as
to the ultimate outcome of the
pending Mercur deal is having
its effect on the stock of the
company, in consequence of which this
security was quoted very low on the
floor of the Mining Exchange yester-
day morning, and sales were made at
figures that were much lower than the
quotation at which this security has
been held for the past few months.
Mammoth was also slumpy owing
TO the fact, it is stated, that it is ru-
mored that the Mammoth mill is TO be
closed down on account of the failure
to operate it at a profit. This would
hardly seem probable, however, and
there is reason to believe that the re-
port was coined and put into circula-
ton by the bears. Anchor. which has
been on the decline during the past
few days in the bidding, chronicled
advances, and at the close was wanted
at 50 cents with no sellers in the pit
Ajax was also firmer, but was not in
the way of transfers. A reaction was
noticeable in Bullion-Beck, and this
security was in good demand at rap
idly advancing figures, while holders
refused TO part with the stock under
$40. Daily held its own in excellent
shape while DAILY West chronicled an
advance and at the close was very
firm at the figures given below. But
little change was noticeable in Ga
lena, but there was an active demand
for the stock. Geyser was practically
unchanged although this stock was
steady and developed an upward ten
deacy. Geyser- Marion was a favorite
and was strong at a few cents below
the price at which the stock is selling
on the curb.
The unlisted stocks were not in it
and were the playthings of the bulls
and the bears, and the game was not
very interesting, either. The gilt-edged
investment stocks were sadly neg
lected, and while they held their own
in fairly good shape. no transfers were
made in these. The purely speculative
stocks were passed almost unnoticed.
A block of 1000 shares of Gladstone.

THE SUNBEAM MEETING.
Prof. Jones Makes a Proposition to
the Stockholders.

A meeting of the stockholders of the
Sunbeam Mining company was held
yesterday afternoon at the office of r.
L. Colburn, in the Morlan block, 1874. 900
shares of the capital stock of the COM
pany being represented.
This meeting was called by Professor
NJ. E Jones, the heaviest stakeholder
in the company. and its manager. for
the purpose OF making proposition.
which was that he was willing to urn
the bonds he held over to the com pany
with the proviso that he should be
protected in his original contracts with
the company, which provide that his
stock shall be exempt from assessment
until the 18th of July next. and that
he is to have the management of the
mine up to that time.
The proposition met with favor with
the stockho1ders-in fact, it was unani-
mously adopted. and a committee of
three was appointed to confer with the
directors of the company with the re-
quest that the proposition of Mr.. Jones
be accepted by the company.

VIRGINIA HARMED.

| person of r.. II. Sothern this popular
| young actress ought TO be about as con-
tented as an ordinary mortal can well be.
Miss Harmed has during the last few
years demonstrated her right TO be regard
ed as one of the very best among the ex-
ceptionally capable leading women of the
American stage, and the fact that she pre-
fers to accept engagements outside of her
husbands company where there can be no
suspicion of prefcrinent because of favorit-
ism, shows that she is possessed of the sort
of independence which, when allied to
ability, Is certain to win success in any
field of effort.
The first engagement Of note that Miss
Harmed had was in 1887 with George Clarke
In "The Corsican Brothers and False
Shame" His company toured for few
weeks in New England disastrously. Miss
Harmed was the leading lady.
For two years after that she acted the
part Of Lisbc in A Night Off," under the
management OF Messrs. Bundage and Bu-
ford, appearing in the west and south.
She was the heroine 90 the hero of Harry
Lacy in 1.-THE Still Alarm" She did not
quite finish the season with that organza-
ton, owing TO the fact that she became
involved in the legal trouble between
ohcSnro aTtuur anu lShcN. tHe httcr OF
whom suffered total eclipse as histrionic
prophet by his allegation that Miss Harmed
was incompetent. Julia Arthur is also
said TO have left this company for gerry
nearly the same reason.
Her first New York engagement was TO
play leading business In Sedley Browns
GA Long Lane" at the Fourteenth Street
theater. The engagement was short, and
she was next seen in the comedy part of
Florence Fctherley In Louis Aldrich's COM
pany presenting 1.-The Editor"
About this time Daniel Frohman saw
her act and engaged her as leading lady of
K. III. Sothern's company. She appeared
with Mr.. Sothern in "The Master of
Woodbarrow" and in the other plays in
his repertory, and originated the part of
the Dancing Girl in Henry Arthur Jones'
drama of that name.
The part was in reality the star part,
and IL is said that both Daniel Frohman
and Mr.. Sothern were induced to present
the play In this country especially TO equip
Miss Harmed with character that would
advance her reputation.
Following that came engagements with
various prominent companies until, when
'Trilby" was produced in this country,
she created the title role, in which she |
won conspicuous success. Afterward she |
was short time with Mr.. Sothern rs his |
leading woman I'm "An Enemy to the !
King" taking the place Of Miss Kimball |
who had been suddenly stricken with i'll |
hess. Her engagement for "Splritismc"
