PRE- MATURE BLASTS.

Frank Tero and Walter Ralo, miners,
employed at the Nipper, were the VIC
tins of an accident which occurred Sat
urday night in a raise from the 800 level.
The men drilled and shotted more thar
the usual number of holes. and made the
fuse extra long in order that they might
have plenty of time to reach a. place of
safety. The fuse, however, burned more
rapidly than usual, and before they got
out of range the blasts exploded. Balo
received an ugly wound in the head and
Tero was badly bruised.

A DOMESTIC RUPTURE

A story gained some currency on the
street this afternoon to the effect that
a prominent mining man of this city had
attempted to murder his wife, by cutting
her throat.
The lumor had it's origin in a domestic
alteration in which several blows were
exchanged and this report when repeated
several hundred times, became somewhat
exaggerated.
The man in question vas arrested, but

To "The Turtle" and Ask the
Court to Prevent
IT FROM BEING REPEATED
Judge Lindsey Called Upon by Three
OF Them Late This
Afternoon

The performance known as 1.-THE Tur-
tle," which was presented at the Grand
opera house last night, has met with the
disfavor Of some of the good people Of
the city. This afternoon two or three
ministers called upon Judge Lindsay to
ascertain If anything could be done to
prevent the play from being repeated
this evening, but the judge was too busy
to give them an audience. They then left
and said they would return later-about
$3.50 o'clock. One of the gentlemen asked
one Of the court clerks if he had seen the
performance and the clerk answered in
the affirmative.
Young man." said the interrogation,
Il would advise you to attend church
twice next Sunday and clear your con-

The case Of the state against Barney
Strasser, charged with having received
stolen property, knowing the same to
have been stolen. was called for trial in
department No. Q of the district court
today. 1t was the intention of Captain
Decay Stivers to appear as special pros
ecutor, for he, while acting as chief dep
uty to the county attorney, had conduct
ed the preliminary hearing and was IA
miliar with the facts, but Judge Clancy
would not allow him to do so. In mat
ters Of this nature the right of an out
side attorney to assist the prosecution is
discretionary with the court. After a
jury was selected an adjournment until
a later hour was taken. The trial was
commenced in earnest this afternoon
with Roy s. Alley and Cornelius Kelly es>
pousing the cause Of the state, and James
Heaney the defendant.
The state closed it's side at 2 o'clock.
The prospects for completing the trial
before time for adjournment were con-
sidered good.
The divorce suit Of Lille E.. Cummings
against L. w. Cummings was called in
Judge Lndsay's court today, but the
Judge refused to hear it. It seems that
the defendant is a volunteer soldier, now
doing duty in the Philippine islands, and
while he is fighting for his country his
wife is fighting for a divorce from him
here. In d~isposing of the matter the
judge stated that the action had been
commenced after the defendant had left
this country and he doubted the courts
authority in the matter.

MHAT MATCHES Will po.


A good joke on a prominent young
man is going the rounds, and his
friends are having lots OF sport with
him about it. He is an inveterate
smoker, and is very seldom seen with
out pipe or a cigar in his mouth. He
has always been b the habit of striking
matches on the seat OF his trousers,
bat it is doubtful il he continues to do
so, for it is understood that he was
placed in rather an embarrassing po-
sition on Sunday morning last.
His parents are at their Summer
home near Gordon Heights, and on Sat
urday night last the hero Of this story
failed to make the last car home, and
concluded to stay at the Hotel Will
mington ever night. He was given
one Of the best rooms in the house and
retired, and no doubt slept well.
On Sunday morning he arose about
$50 o'clock and was about to make
his toilet when, to his amazement, the
ampler part OF his trousers presented
dilapidated appearance. Upon close
examination he found that the brim-
stone from numerous matches had
eaten OF rotted the goods. There he
was, away from home and without a
change OF raiment An idea struck
him and he went to a friends room
and started to knock at the door. At
ter hammering for about ten minutes
voice cried out who is there?' The
answer came. "Beady. Let me in. |
want to tell you about my pants The
door was Immediately opened, and the
matter was thoroughly explained to
the friend. the result OF which was
that the youth was enabled to appear
in public without incurring arrest.
On Monday he returned the borrow
ed trousers with many thanks, and
now he swears he will never strike
any more matches on his trousers.
