BOTH EYES BLOWN OUT
Fearful Accident to Miner on
Snake River.


Albert Smith who was working
q prospect 25 miles from White
Bird had both his eyes blown out
last Wednesday, by the explosion
Of . box of caps. He was smoking
and preparing q shot, when spark
accidentally dropped from his pipe
igniting the caps with the result
that he was torn and burnt very
badly about the legs, arms and
breast, the main force Of the ex-
plosion striking him in the eyes,
Utterly tearing them from their
sockets leaving the balls bursted
and hanging upon his cheeks
When found by his partner who
was working but q short distance
from him but did not hear the ex-
plosion, he was in q semi-conscious
condition. and seemed to realize
fully the extent Of his horrible con-
dition. Assistance was secured
soon as possible and the unfor-
tunate man was taken to the New
man house at White Bird, and DIR.
Foskett summond. He is in a
very critical condition awaiting
the arrival of his relatives from
Coal Arbor, N. D. Owing to the
remote location OF the mine where
the accident occurred, it was nee
cessary for the young man to come
out on horseback, and with the
frightful condition of his face and
the horrible decorations upon his
body, legs and arms, he sat in the
saddle for 35 weary miles while
his comrades led his horse. He
realized that his eyes were gone
forever and begged repeatedly fol
his friends to kill him. At the last
last report from him, his wound,
are more serious than was at frs,
thought but he is receiving tn,
best of care and treatment and may
recover.
his relatives have been notified
and are now on their way to him
They are expected today.

FRANCIS STEELE LOST.
Young Man Perishes in Biz
a Creek District.

Clayton Vance and Sherman
Whitaker, Of Roosevelt, arrived
Thursday and tell of the finding
Of the assessment blanks and school
books of Francis Steele, the school
teacher and deputy county assess
or who was lost in the wilds OF the
Salmon River. The books and
and papers were found at the
mouth of Ramey creek on the up
per Salmon river and had evident
ly been on the ground several days
as they were covered with mould
caused by dampness. With the
papers was bucket in which beanf
had been taken from the cabin OF
Tom Lynch on May 20. At the
time the beans were taken Lynch
was fishing on creek about 100
yards from the house. He had
left some grouse, fish and lot OF
cooked beans in the cabin, and
when he returned he found the
cabin has been entered and the
greater part of the food was gone
1t was evident that the party had
partaken of the food before leaving
the cabin and had left pair OF
gloves on the floor. The papers
and books, were found about a
mile from the cabin on May 30,
and the bucket proves conclusively
that the person who entered the
cabin was none other than Francis
Steele who, it is believed, was de.
ranged at that time and wandered
aimlessly through the mountains.
| Steele was a school teacher and
spent the winter and early spring
at Mt. Idaho and Clearwater, where
he had been teaching school. Later
he went to Whitebird aud remain
ed for about two months and left
on May s for Roosevelt, where he
expected to teach school during
the summer and assess the distria
for the county assessor of Idaho
lCo. On. May 8 he appeared on
CampbelPs crossing where be was
supplied with food by Warren
Cook. This was the last time hi
has been seen. He was directed
by Cook how to follow the trail
as miners and packers are con
stantly passing back and forth Il
the mines and no trace OF Stee
had been found until the papers
were discovered by Lynch. Search
ing parties have been engaged fol
several days in travelling through
the mountains in the vicinity o
where the papers were found, bu
no trace of the unfortunate maj
has been discovered. The glove,
left at Lynch's cabin have beer
identified by Cook as the one
carried by Steel when he was q

believed that he must have die,
before this from starvation and ex

that Steele lost his way and in wan

condition when he visited tn
