MARYSVILLE, CAL, May "a = Ed
Sherman. aged %, miner who arrived
recently from Nevada City, received in ju-
ries last night IN the Donnebro mine in
Browns Valley which resulted in his death
an hour later. Sherman and a young
man named Shea had placed SIX blasts in
stope on the 500-foot level and ignited
the fuse. Shea took the lead in the re-
treat and had reached a place of safety,
when he looked back to find that his
fellow-em ploye was not following. Sher-
mans candle had gone out.
Thinking to guide his comrade Shea
turned back with his candle toward the
Slope, but he had gone but a short dis
lance when the first blast exploded.
Nothing daunted, though the conclusion
had extinguished the flame of his candle,
shea CROPPED through the darkness to the
spot where Sherman lay prone upon the
ground. He was carrying the wounded
man out of the stope when the remaining
blasts went off in quick succession.
Alter reaching the surface Sherman
lived but an hour, death being due TO in
ternal hemorrhages and laceration of the
bowels. One piece of rock entered Sher-
mans back and passed through his body.
Sherman was member of Court Gar.
held, Fores.ers of America at Nevada
City, to which place his body will be sen!
for burial. Shea will recover, his greatest
injury being wound in the cali OF the
leg, where piece OF quartz was found i'm
bedded in the muscle next to the bone.
