NEA PLASTERS
VIII Cure : cold-stop = Cough

One of the many reasons why a
Porous Plaster is so efficient in
relieving an ache or a pain, a cough
or . cold, is because 1t is always on
daylight over the pain, and the
pores absorb the medication neces-
sary to effect an immediate cure.
We think REX the best Porous
Plaster made.

CIoudburst Causes Death.

Last Monday evening, about 5:3O o'clock, cloudb burst broke over the summit of the Cerbat range, above the Nighthawk and Alpha mines and in an incredibly short time the canyons were pouring down a great mass of water on the camps. John Connors and Ole Ingelbretzen, two we'll known miners, were encam ped in the tunnel of the Whippowil mine when the storm broke and they at once went to the cabin Of George M. Bowers, on the Nighthawk mine. Mr.. Bowers is said to have told the men that the cabin would be bad place to be in if cloud burst came and asked them to go with him to the tun- nel of the Nighthawk. They believed they were safe in the house and re- mained. Bowers went to the tunnel, reaching the portal as the great mass of water came tearing down. He went
 back in quite distance and the swirl
 ing waters closed up the entrance with debris for distance of bout lO0 feet.
 In total darkness he remained until he
 believed the storm had subsided and
 then began the work of making an opening to the outer air. He had noth.
 ing but his hands to dig away the mud
 and debris and at daybreak in the
 morning he broke through the mass
 that had held him prisoner for more
 than ten hours. He at once made
 search for Connors and Ingeloretzen
 and not finding them aroused the
 camp. Search parties were sent out
 and about noon of Tuesday the nude
 remains of ngelbretzen were found
 two miles down the canyon. His scalp
 was nearly torn from his head and his
 body was mass of bruises. A further
 search discovered the body of Connors
 a mile or more below the mine. Ther @
 was one shoe on but other wise the
 body was entirely nude. When the
 flood struck the cabin the men evl'
 dently made a break to get to high
 ground, but were caught in the swirlinR
 mass of boulders, mud and water and their lives ground out. The boulderi carried along by the fpod had driven in one side of the cabin and practically wrecked it. Coroner Ceilings and deputy sheriff J. F.. Gideon went out to the cam and brought the bodies o1 . the unfortunate men to town. The ? funeral was held the following day a < eleven o'clock. George M. Bowers
 whose forethought saved him from t terrible death, is one of the best knowl ] mining men in this county. He Is sui :. ferine severely from the shock and 8 will be some time before he recover @ from the terrible effort in digging hi }. way from his tunnel prison.
 @ The storm was severe at the Alph d mine, where It washed away one of tn 1. dun ps and filled the road and dun n site with i'm mense boulders. The roa e to Mineral was washed out and throug t. the canyon where the road once was 'r strewn with great boulders and debri e. On stockton Hill the storm was nc Is so severe, but the water shaft on tt le Alta mine was filled wi mud an W sand to the top. All along the rang s. reports come in of the great fall Is rain and washed out roads that T 'n suited.
