Knocked Out.

The only disturbance that took place
at the labor day picnic was while the
baseball game was in progress. Natur-
ally the sympathy of the crowd was in
favor of the home team. A cheer of
encouragement was occasionally heard
for the Calaveras boys. One young
fellow named Truan, from Amador,
was putting in word for the visiting
team, when r. Fortner struck him
powerful blow in the neck. He was
knocked insensible. Doctors were sum-
moned, and tried to restore him to con-
sciousness, but for long time without
avail. He was taken to Vicini's hotel,
where powerful stimulants were en-
ployed, but it was more than two hours
before the patient came to. The blow
appears to have interfered with the
arterial system, and the mans life
trembled in the balance for a while,
and his salvation is mainly due to the
prompt medical attention available.

Severely Injured.

A small cave occurred in the Central
Eureka mine at about 10 o'clock last
Thursday night. On the 1800-foot level
about two tons of gouge from the hang
ing wall fell, catching Richard Bartle,
miner who had just previously left
his position to walk out in the drift.
Fortunately only corner of the cave
caught him, or he would have been in
stantly killed. AS it was he received
severe injuries over his body, the worst
being the breaking of two bones in his
right forearm near the wrist, severing
an artery. On all parts of the body he
was severely confused.
The unfortunate is well known among
the miners of Sutter Creek, having
worked here for several years. He is a
member of the Miners Union. At last
accounts his wounds are healing rapid

For st. Louis Exposition.

The California Department of Mines
and Metallurgy has issued the following
circulars. 1t is hoped that all mine
owners and superintendent will take
steps to forward samples of ore to head
quarters, to the end that Amador coun-
ty may be worthily represented at the
Fair:
The work of collecting representative
samples of the mineral products of Cali
tornla, Tor the state exhibit at the St,
Louis Exposition, is now in progress,
and collectors are visiting the various
counties in an endeavor to make the
California mineral exhibit as compre
nenslve and representative as possible,
AS the funds for this purpose are limit
ed, 1t will be impossible for collectors to
visit many mines which are distant from
transportation points, and as all Sec
lions OF the state should be represented,
the cooperation of mine owners and
those interested in the DEVELOPMENT of
our mineral resources is sought. AS it
may be impossible for the collector to
visit your district, will you please for
ward at your earliest convenience SAM
pies which are representative of YOUR
property; also small pieces of the wall
rocks or enclosing formations. A tag
is herewith enclosed which please fiji
out with the information desired, and
attach to the sample. It can be sent
from any railroad point free of charge,
Wells. Fargo & Co. have kindly con
sented to transport minerals free of
charge If not in excess of twenty pounds.
Anything in excess of that weight
SHOULD be forwarded by freight, the
railroad companies having also kindly
consented to waybill material for the
exposition free of charge.

bility for an indebtedness created here
after in the appeal matter. The ridic-
ulous comparison was greeted with a
broad grin.
At last the matter simmered down to
a resolution against allowing any costs
or expenses in appealing the case. The
question arose as to who should father
the motion. No one wanted to assume
the role. Finally the chairman called
M. Newman to the chair, and took the
foor and moved its adoption.
The roll was called and all the mem
bers voted yes, except A. Grillo, who
went on record against it.
Thereupon Mr.. MCGEE remarked,
Better make it unanimous" Super

most sensible remark made during the
whole controversy, mo; l do not

| DRILLING-This was the event OF
the day. 1t was different from all
other contests of this kind witnessed in
this section, the drilling being upward
instead of downward. 1t involved more
skill in the use of the hammer, and the
process was somewhat slower than
down drilling. A massive block of
hard granite was raised seven feet from
the ground for the operators to work
on. Two prizes were offered, both OF
S75; one for heavy-weights, miners
weighing over 145 pounds; one for
light-weights of 145 pounds and under.
Each team was allowed to furnish its
own drills; fifteen minutes was the time
allotted; the team making the deep
est hole in that time being the winn ners.
For the heavy-weights three teams
entered, the Oneida boys carrying off
the prize. The names OF the COM
petitors and the records is given below !:
Matt Thomas and John Coavich, of
the Amador Queen mine, 15s inches.
George Chinn and Caleb Chlnn, of
the Kennedy mine, IA inches.
Jim Bouti and Jos. Zene, of Oneida
mine, 20 inches.
LIGHT WEIGHT DRILLING - Two
teams entered, representing the Key
stone and Oneida mines. Tho score
was as follows:
Gil Dickerman aud Samuel j. Hos
kins, keystone mine, 171 inches; win
ners.

The exhibition drill by the mem bers
of the Uniform Rank, K. of P, all ar

feature OF the afternoon. The evolu-

dancing platform, and executed with
much precision and skill.
During the remainder of the after
noon and up to IL o'clock at night, the
mammoth platform was occupied by
the crowd of dancers, all. enjoying
themselves to the utmost
Frank Simcich of the Union House
furnished dinner and supper for the
crowds. His preparations were on a
most liberal scale, but the rush for the
good things far exceeded hisj utmost
expectations. At the meal hours from
twenty to thirty walters were kept go
ing attending to customers.
The ice cream stand supplied by Mr..
Heiser, also did an immense business.
The sale of liquor was held by the
Union. This was even more literally
patronized than the other stands. The
receipts were in keeping with the
throngs that pervaded the grounds.
Altogether, it is estimated that the iu-
come of the union from all sources was
in excess of $1,000, which will leave a
fair margin after paying all expenses
the expenses being unusually heavy.
A conservative estimate of the num-
Der on the grounds is from 5000 to
$500. There were no disturbances
worth speaking of. Everything passed
off peaceably, and the first annual pic
mic of the Miners Union must be votod
an unqualified success in every res
pect.

The entries were confined to members
of the Western Federation. The
