SERIES OF CASUALTIES.
Residents of Mammoth Have Many
Marrow Escapes.


The Mammoth Record publishes a
chapter of accidents and truly says the
week has been full of disastrous events
10 the people of Mammoth. On last
Thursday, while engaged in hauling
lumber up the shaft, Superintendent
Oglesby Of the Emerald mine had his
foot caught between the cage and the
shaft, but the engineer noticed that
something was wrong and promptly
stopped the cage. Mr.. Oglesby escaped
with some severe bruises.
On Friday the little son of Mr.. and
Mrs. Thomas Hillman, while playing
with matches, set his clothing on fire
He was severely burned and died on
the following day from the effects Of
his injuries and the shock.
On Wednesday afternoon Jack
Hughes fell down the shaft at the An
Mandate and broke TWO ribs. He was
in the act of putting in timbers when
one OF the bolts gave way and Hughes
went TO the bottom, distance of 90
feet, and fell on q rock, which caused
the fracture OF the ribs. Joe McCor-
mick was at work on the timber at
the same time, but saved himself by
catching the wire bell rope and slid
ing to the bottom, landing none the
worse for the wear, excepting from
few slivers of iron, which were i'm
bedded in his hands.
John Erickson had a miraculous es-
cape from death at the North Star
mine, Thursday evening. He was stop
ing when the still upon which he was
standing save way and he fell a dis
lance of 120 feet to the bottom of the
shaft, landing on his head and shoul-
der. The bottom of the shaft was COW
cred with soft ore, and to this fact
the miner owes his escape without a
broken bone.

Logan Nation: Last Sunday after
noon William Knox of Smithfield at
tempted TO assault the 11-year-old
daughter of J. W. Mcdonald, jr., ac-
cording to the story told by the little
girl.
Knox had been in jail in Montana on
the charge of murder, but was par
doned out some time ago, as it ap-
peared that the deed had been COM
mitted 10 some extent in self-defense.
he is known to be a tough character,
and for this reason Mr.. Mcdonald had
discouraged his visits to the house.
Sunday afternoon he visited the
house and found no one home but the
little girl and her baoy brother He
asked her TO go away with him and
she refused. He offered her money
TO accompany him that night, and in
other ways attempted 10 get her away.
She stoutly refused all his advances,
however. While she was passing him
to-reach the stove he put out his hand
as if TO clutch her and she struck him
on the knuckles with q pair of curling
irons which she held in her hands lie
sprang and caught her around the
waist. pulled her down on his lap. dis
arranged her apparel, and attempted
TO take further liberties. She struggled
to escape, and finally shouted that her
mother was coming, Whereupon he let
her go. She ran to her father who
was two blocks away, and with tear
full eyes and trembling lips told him
the story.
Naturally, Mr.. Mcdonald was ang-y.
He went to the home of Justice q. V
Smith, for whom he waited until II D.
m. Then began the uncovering of an
astounding state of affairs. The JUS
tice declined to issue a warrant for the
arrest of Knox without the consent of
the county attorney. He claimed 10
have instructions to that effect, be-
cause of a fear of putting the county to
unnecessary expense. Nothing the
indignant father could say would in
duce the issuance of the papers.
The justice asked Mcdonald to come
TO Logan and interview the county at
tOrney. and he was thus compelled TO
bottle his wrath and wait till morning.
