4 SNOW slide occurred at Edgemont at
6 o'cIock Friday evening that nearly
cost VIM Robertson his life.
At the hour named a hu re volume Of
SNOW broke loose from the mountain

with terrific force upon the mill and
cyanide piantIu the canyon.
Robertson was ID the cyanide AMI
sluicimG it ont, wien the slide crushed
through the building, burying him be-
meath 70 feet Of snow and broken tim
bers. 1t took the entire male popu-
lation Of Edgemont three hours to ex.
tricate the unfortunate young man from
his perilous position. When they
reached him. at Q O'Clock, great
was their rejoicing to lind their friend
alive and conscious, and. with the excep-
ton OF n few minor bruises, practically
uniujured.
Tho mill, cyanide piaut and black
smith shop were considerably demol.
Ished and, as Il result Of the accident,
operations Will probably be suspended
for the winter.
Mr.. Robertson'+ fortunate escape from
death was probably due to the broken
timbers OF the building falling in such
a way over the top Of the cyanide tank
a. to save him from being fatally crush.
cd rs he must nav been had it not
been Tor the providential resistance OF
the timbers.-rimes Review.
In addition to the above the ~IHDEPEN.

the mining company were also swept
away by the snow slide. Also that all
the men at work at the mrne have been
paid of and nothing can DO done ut the
