Cyrus Lyon was quite badly hurt at the
Smuggler mine "Wednesday morning
shortly after he had commenced work
by rock falling and striking him upon
the back as he was engaged in picking
up mineral A shot had been fred the
evening before, aud in the morning the
first thing that Mr.. Lyon did was to take.
down the loose rock, and he supposed
that everything had been made safe and
went to picking up the ore that had been
shot down, when, without warning, n
a good sized piece of rock dropped from
above and struck him on the back.
Owing to his kneeling position the blow
was glancing one or no doubt his back
would have been broken, and he thought
for time that such was the case. For
tunately no bones were broken, but the
injury was painful one. Mr.. Lyon is
getting along MS well as could be ex-
pectcd, but will he lnid up for several
days as his baek was badly bruised.
