With arms in front Of his head, he
went into the miniature tunnel and
began to work his way slowly through.
When he had progressed about hall
way he stopped, and Supt. Frank Mil
Ter, who stood at the tube at the
mouth of the shaft, called and asked
what was the matter.
Out of Wind.
"Oh, nothing" Hicks called back.
"Im just going to stop. I'm out Of
wind. My wind is very short, you
know"
Then the man of iron moved a few
inches further toward freedom, and
his arms. were seized by DR.. Stinch'
field and Miner Gents. The two, ex,
erting all their strength, pulled the
miner into the main tunnel, where he

his efforts In his behalf.
The superintendent gazed steadfast

speak farther, he turned and wake
out of the tunnel and up the mountain
side.
Hicks was not emaciated, as was e,

were dirty, but his clothing was fairl
clean and in good condition.
