MINER BALL.
His Narrow Escape From an Awful
Accident in MaIagros Mine.
MISSED CHARGE OF POWDER.

Seymour Ball. the wealthy New
Yorker, who years ago threw aside the
comforts of palatial home in the
great city to seek health and recrea-
tion among the rick-ribbed mountains
of central New Mexico, had an exper-
ience the other day which he will not
soon forget.
1t Is long story since the coming
OF Seymour Ball to this city-his tribu-
lations as driver on Cromwell's fam
GUS transform street car line, his ad-
vent as scientific boxer of some note
and trainer of heavyweight pugilists,
and many other minor avocatlons, but
1t is of his mining exploits this article
will treat.
A short time ago Commodore" F. III.
Kent, the capitalist who Is operating
placer and lode claims in the He'll
Canon district, secured Charles Bon
sail and Seymour Ball to do the 800
assessment work on the West Mala-
gros mine. Work progressed finely and
considerable good ore was easily taken
out. The workmen finally struck a
most promising ledge, that plainly
showed all kinds of paying ore, and
Bonsall remarked:
Ball. let's make a record here. tho
commodore and wife will be out tomor-
row; let's show him the good stuff in
the bowels of this mine"
81 am not much of a miner-not near
as good miner as | am a street car
driver" said Ball, but you can bet
your last cent that / can drill holes
and use powder with the best of them"
Bonsall. who was foreman of the
work, directed the plans for four drill
ings, and on the completion of each
they were heavily charged with pow
der. Being younger and agile, the
lighting of the fuse and getting out Of
dangers way was left to Ball. He per-
formed his work well, and after he had
applied the match and scaled the lad
der for the surface, three of the
charges went off with a great roar and
rocA. containing precious metals, were
thrown in all directions. One charge,
however, failed to explode, and after
certain lapse Ball investigated. He
discovered that the dilatory Iuse was
still on fire and re rushed up the rope
to the surface. Just as he reached the
top the delayed charge of powder ex-
ploded with a mighty roar ana huge
rocks and dirt came rumbling all
around MIN. II was a narrow escape
from a most horrible death. and Ball
told Mr.. Kent, who visited the mine
the next day. that the night before he
had a presentment that some awful
accident would happen to him.
