INSTANTLY KILLED.
Little Michael Donovan Falls Down u
Deserted shaft.

There is one family in Butte which
VIII always regret with deepest sadness
that a celebration was given the sol
diers on their departure from Butte. IL
is the family of Timothy Donovan of
No. s West Pearl street, Centerville. AS
an indirect result Of the celebration. but
as a direct result of the wicked neglect
and carelessness of some mine owner,
Michael. the son of Mr.. and Mrs. Dono-
van. met his death yesterday afternoon.
Michael Donovan would have been :
years old June Is. He was a bright. in
telligent boy and a steady attendant Of
the parochial school. He took part in
the parade yesterday morning with the
other children OF the school,. The Sis
tiers had given the school children a
holiday and yesterday afternoon Micky.
with other boys. was playing marbles
near an old. abandoned shaft, situated
about 800 yards northwest Of the Dono-
van residence and a little south Of the
Montana Union tracks. IL was about
2 o'clock i'm the afternoon that the
ground aroun the shaft began caving
i'm. They boys were very close and. as
the ground began caving around them.
they started to run When they reached
a safe distance they missed Mickey. At
first they thought that he had run In
another direction and would soon show
up but as he did not appear after some
time they reported to the lads mother
that III the boy did not come home To
supper he was probably in the bottom Of
the shaft.
The distracted mother summoned her
neighbors and a large party started at
once for the old shaft. They had to
work with great caution, for the ground
was caving all the time. and there was
danger of the escuers being buried
nde the fall of earth. As carefully
az possible two men We're lowered into
the shaft with ropes tied around their
waists. The boys l~ifeless body was
found in the bottom OF the shaft. SO
dangerous a proceeding was the work
in the caving ground that an hour wal
required before the body reached the
surface and was placed in the arms OF
the lads distracted mother. Death had
evidently beer instant. There was "A
ing that the boy had been struck on his
head.
People living in the vicinity say that
the mouth OF the shaft was never COW
cred over and there was not even a
railing around II. The shaft is not even
timbered. IL is about 81 feet deep. IL is
not known by people living in the vi
cinity who owns the shaft, but that VIII
probably develop at the coroner's in
quest. which will be held to-day.
The boys father Is an employe of the
ST. Lawrence mine. The funeral will he
held Saturday afternoon at > o'clock.
Tim. "A brother of Micky. was also
caught in the caving ground, but man
aged to save himself.

the cause. Everything possible was

ticularly as he no longer wrote and the
