Investigating the Death of Matt
Huhtamaa.
LEONARD MINE ACCIDENT
The Dead Mans Partner Tells the Story
OF the Disaster-A Premature
Explosion the Cause OF
the Accident.

Coroner Julien called an inquest last
mine accident of last Wednesday, in
which Matt Huhtamaa lost his life and
Benjamin w. Wilson was severely in
Jured by a premature blast. All the
witnesses in the case except Wilson
were examined at Richards undertake
ing rooms, after which an adjournment
was taken till this evening, when the
jury will visit the Boston & Montana
hospital to hear Wilson's statement
j. r. Bennett, Shift boss at the Leon
ard, said he was called and notified of
the accident, and went at once to the
500, where he found Wilson in the drift,
apparently quite badly hurt, but able
to talk. He gave the witness to under
stand he and Huhtamaa had put in a
round of holes and were splitting the
fuses, but that they evidently We're too
long about it, and while the last fuses
were being spitted a hole went off. Will
son Immediately jumped behind the
nearest post and remained there while
the rest of the holes went off. The first
explosion put out the light and Wilson
could not tell whether his partner was
hit by the first blast or not, but sup
posed he was, as he heard him groan.
After the rest of the holes went off,
Wilson did not hear his partner again.
He had sense enough to know he must
get out, and did so, going about 400 feet
to the station. AS soon as possible wit
ness went in with men and recovered
the body of deceased from where 1t was
buried under the broken ground.
Robert BRYANT a CaTman, was filling
a car at the mouth of No. l drift on the
500 when Wilson came out and told him
of the accident, saying he guessed his
partner was killed. Witness gave the
alarm. Wilson had only one shoe on
when he came out. He had good nerve
and did not appear to be badly hurt.
He repeated Wilson's account of the
accident as given by the first witness.
Thomas Sorden went from the 500 to
the 500 in response to call for assist
ance He went into the drift with the
rescue party. They could not see Huh
tamaa, and commenced to dig. He was
found about so feet from the face, lean
ing against post He had evidently
been blown back by The blast.
Jacob E. Terry assisted Wilson to the
station and to the surface. He talked
with Wilson, who said he and his part
ner simply took too much time splitting
The fuses. He had said to his partner
they had not better try to spit all the
holes. but Huhtamaa was the older
miner and. as he said they had plenty
of time, Wilson did not insist. They
had to cut a couple of fuses over. and
when two holes remained to be spitted
Wilson said I'VE had better get out.
and they were in the act of starting
when the first hole went off. Wilson

How to Succeed on the stage,

The personal qualifications of the girl
who seeks life on the stage should
be, first inhCrn dramatic talent; then,
youth, health, magnetism and abund-
ant capacity for good, hard. honest
work. A very valuable adjunct is 1
temperament which will enable her
when the clouds of adversely are thick
est, to wait until the sun shines again.
with abiding faith in herself and her
own lucky star. The aspirant possess
ing these qualities will sooner or later
find a place in the profession, for there
is always room for her.
To study for the stage a girl should
study everything. Broad culture is Of
inestimable advantage. She should
study people, see good acting. and
should begin to act herself at the ear
lest moment. Coaching before the
first plunge is a great help. for in a
very short time one is then able to
acquire many little things which other
wise would take months to MASTER

A gentleman who has just returned
from trip over the proposed line of
the Pacific q Idaho Northern into the
Seven Devils, stated to the Salt Lake
Herald that work is being rushed with
all possible speed up in that country.
The graders have now reached a point
nearly 40 miles from Weiser and the
track laying was completed last week
to the canyon. There is some heavy work
to be dore at this point and it is being
rushed. Nearly 800 men arrived at
Weiser last week to go to work on the
ROAD ana several of the Sub-cOntractors
on the Northwestern have quit and are
making for Weiser with their outfits
A great many prospectors are going
into the Seven Devils country and some
very good claims are being located al
though great many of the prospectors
are being disappointed. number of
people are locating farms along the line
of the new railroad and it is expected
that a great many families will move
in during the summer.
The p. G /. n. has issued circulars
announcing the appointment of A. Her.

Richmond as superintendent and B. S.

Weiser. Work on the new $4,000 depot
building is progressing nicely.

The question was thoroughly discussed

one shoe was blown from his foot He
got somehow, behind a post, and re-
NAMED there while the blasts went off.
He tried to count the holes in order
to Know when it would be safe to VEN
ture out, but could not do so, and after
waiting till he felt sure all the holes
mad gone he made his way out. Will
son had said the fault lay entirely with
himself and partner in staying too long.
Fred Blume, Chester Morris and John
Sullivan gave testimony which CORE
sponded with the statements of the
other witnesses.
Foreman c. b. Davis stated that both
the dead man and his partner, Wilson,
were experienced miners. No restric-
tons were placed upon them with re-
gard to the amount of fuse they should
use He had seen Huhtamaa cut fuse
and he would always cut about six feet.
This would give little over three min
utes' time, enough to have spitted all
the holes ordinarily. He thought the
loss of time was due to the necessity
of recruiting some of the fuses.
Thomas Thomas had known deceased
two years and knew him to be an eX
perienced man.
Deputy Mine Inspector Frank Hunter
told of investigating the accident. He
found two holes had not gone which had
been loaded, and three holes had not
been loaded. 1t was the opinion of wit
ness that the wet ground dampened
the fuses and that some refused to
take, which had to be recut, and the
men, trying to fire the nine holes, stayed
too long. He tested the fuse and found
it the average fuse.
Owing to the injured man, Wilson,
being unable to be present to give his
testimony, an adjournment was taken
to this evening, when the jury will meet
at o'clock at Richards and proceed to
the Boston & Montana hospital to hear
Wilson's account of the accident
The dead miner was buried with i'm
pressive honors yesterday afternoon.
The funeral was held at Miners union
hall at o'clock. The services were
largely attended and long line of men,
bers of the union marched in the pro-
ces, which was headed by the Boston
& Montana band playing solemn fu-
neral dirge as the cortege moved

PLAYED QUEER FRANKS
Mischievous Freaks of the Elec-
trical Storm.
SEVERAL BOLTS STRUCK
Considerable Damage Done in One
Instance-Opened a Big Water Tank
by Melting the Valve - No
One Was Injured.

The electrical storm Thursday night
played lot of mischievous pranks
around town. Lightning struck sew
eral places and frightened a number
of people pretty badly. In one instance
a big amount of damage was done.
This was al the NJ. J. Council store,
where a bolt of lightning literally
raised Cain,
A big water tank for fire protection
is kept on the roof of the store build
ing, from which pipes lead to the var
ious floors to which are attached
sprinklers to be turned on in case of a

through a window of the third story,
striking the water pipe on that floor
and melting fla valve. and flooding
the whole floor. From the water pipe

peries were torn and twisted into tam
gled masses and the whole department
looked yesterday morning as though a
fiend had been at work. The water
from the tank ran all night and trick
led down to the second floor, running
a vast amount of goods. The damage
was estimated yesterday at $1,000 to
$4,000. Singularly enough the store did
not catch fire.
Mrs. Powers boarding house in Ana
conda road was also visited A bolt
of lightning came in through a window
and raced about the house from one
room to another. but by strange
freak of providence no one was hurt,
though there were several peoplpe in
the house. and the damage done was
very slight. 1t was equally as strange,
as in the case at the Cornell store, that
the place was not fired.
Martin Gilligan counts himself in
rare good luck. He, too, was visited
and he had a narrow escape. He was
sitting on his porch watching the pic
turesque display in the heavens when
he received a shock. The electricity
ran up his left arm and nearly knocked
him out of his chair. His arm aChed

down the corner of the building and
went into the ground.
