The bodies of Andrew Wise and his
son Joseph 'ay at the morgue all day
and were viewed by hundreds Of citizens,
The remains were brought to Boulder
last evening by Coroner Trezise. who
gathered them from the ground where
they lay near the site on which once stood
the shaft house of w. H. Nicholson's Ell
Dorado tunnel. This was near the
Emancipation mine, fetween Sunshine
and Salina, There was little about the
bodies to identity them as Andrew and
Joe Wise. So much of the faces Of each
had been blown away that no one would
have been able to recognize them. The
father was tearfully torn. His arms
we're cut clean of. the frontal face was
gone and he had been completely dis
embowelled. Joe's nose was gone and
horrible gashes attested the powders

No inquest vas necessary. These men
died as other men have died 50 frequent
ly in this county. They were not exper.
fenced miners but they had been in
mining country nearly all of Joe's life
and they should have realized the ease
with which sleeping powder is made to

origin Of the explosion. Blacksmith

as they had been doing for year, in a
tank filled with exhaust steam from the
boiler. This is VIGOROUSLY dangerous
practice. but it appears it has been the
practice at this mine for year. The re-
sultant explosion played havoc with the
shaft house and the surrounding articles

The shaft house valued at $4,000 and
machinery at $1,000. were destroyed.
The accident occurred at abou, 1890
o'clock yesterday. The two Wises, faith
er and son, were standing outside the
tunnel in front of the shaft house thaw-
ing giant powder in tub of water kept
warm by the steam exhaust pipe. The
water at the time Of the explosion, &C.
cording to Wasley. was scalding hot.
W asley, who is the blacksmith at the
mine, states he was standing behind his
anvil in the shaft house, about twelve
feet from the men, and ccald see them
at the tub. The son was throwing the
sticks of powder in the tub and the faith.

W. A. Burgess. candidate for repre-.
sentative on the republican ticket, is
what you may term a successful busi-
ness man and as such is competent to
care fer the interests the people have
10 the lower house of the state legis-
lature. AS the county treasurer OF
Brookings county during the past four
years, he has demonstrated his COM
potency and efficiency as one of the
peoples servants and when he turns
oyer the treasurer's office it will be
with record that any man can well
feel proud Of. The people of this
county can make no mistake In send
ing him as their representative to
Pierre, for his experience and famil-
iarity with the laws relating to taxa
tion, peculiarly fit him for work Of an
important character In the lower
house. His ability and social disposi-
tion will make him popular with his
colleagues and give the county
standing In that body it has never
had before. That Mr.. Burgess stands
we'll among all who know him is at
tested by the article appearing In his
home paper, the White Enterprise,
which, although populist paper, says
about all that could we'll be said
against him: "Mr. Burgess is a good,
clean man and one Of the most highly
respected citizens Of White. No one
has anything to say against Billy
Burgess personally, and he IS without
doubt the strongest man his party
could have chosen"

made the best sheriff Brookings
county has ever had. At least we
have had the pleasure of hearing only
good words In connection with his ad-
ministrauion Of affairs during the past
two years which, to US, is pretty good
evidence of his efficiency. He is a
young man OF sterling worth, ability
and integrity. The best part ofhis
life has been spent In Brooklngs
county, where he has succeeded In
building up an enviable reputation as

probate laws Of the state, make him a
safe and reliable man to take charge

the county. Being young man Of
good habits and strict integrity, he
