John Miller was fatally hurt by a blast in the United Verde mine. One arm was completely torn off and the other one almost, aud hole was torn in his back. It seems that he had set three blasts, lighted two of them and forgot the other. After he had started away he happened to think about the other one and went back to light it. Before he could get away the second time the blasts he lighted the first time went of. He was taken to the hospital and made as e,sy as 1t was possible until his death.

There is some talk of securing a

the Lewistown district. but are too
far distant for proper attention. This
