B|G ROCK FALLS, BRUSHES \
 MINER
George PetkoviCh, MuCkeE While Working in the L, s, & P, Mine Yesterday Morning, Meets with Instant Death,
Review Branch, Telephone 69.

LO"eiI, July ll, 19Oi.
 George Petkoyich, a mucker in the l.. S. & P. mine, was almost instant. ly killed yesterday morning by cave in on the 1000 foot level. A rock which was estimated to weigh two tons struck the man while he was at work tr stOpe 73 and its work was so swift and deadly that the life of the unfortunate victim was imme- diately crushed out. Petkovich was a Slovenian and was working in the stope in company with a man named Ojang, who was a witness to the ac. cident.
 At an inquest held before Judge Grier yesterday afternoon it was de. veloped that Petkovich and Oiang had made an inspection of the stope short. ly before going to work and that there was no indication that there was any defect in the walls or the roof, but about II o'clock a shower of heavy rock fell with a sudden crash from one of the walls and the body of the man was buried in the debris. There were several other wit nesses at the inquest. all of whom gave substantially the same state ments as that made by Ojang.
 The jury of inquest, after hearing the evidence found that the mans death was caused by a cavein, for which the company was in no way re- spOnsible

MULE GOOD ON LAND,
 FAILS IN WATER
Tucson Mining Man Has Bad Half Hour in Santa Cruz
 River.
Special to Review.)

TUCSON, July 27.-Caught .n a swift whirl in the Santa Cruz in which he was endeavOring to. cross yesterday, about 15 miles south of the city, John H. EdmOndson, a mining man. who has been stopplnS in this city for some time, had an experience which he does not care to repeat.
 He left Tucson to visit some min ing properties located southwest of the city He visied all of tne livery stables, but was unable to find a riding horse.
 If you must go I can give you a good safe mule, who may EOt be as smooth as a Kentucky single stopper but nevertheless a reliable aEimei,' '' remarked one liveryman.
 The offer was eagerly accepted and the mining man made the outgoing trip in safety. He remained several days at the mining pOpeIty bat on his return he found that the river was up.
 Tt did not seem very high, so I decided to cross,' Edmondson ex- plained in telling of his narrow es- cape.
 "The mule objected to entering the water" he explained, but 6y a iib' eral use of my spurs I managed to get the creature into the stream. Everything went smoothly for about 50 feet but then the mule had tO swim. The water began to wet my leggins. and then suddenly l found myself in the water. I went below surface and when I arose the mule was swimming for the opposite baaK and I started to do likewise.
 T was handicapped by having heavy boots. and after I swan ! short distance I became weaTiel and unable to swim farther and Ter my self go. To my surprise I touched bottom. This encouraged me and I decided to attempt to wade tO the opposie shore. I was carried off my feet several time but each time found footing and finally arrived on the opposite bank. The mule had beaten me and was waiting there when I got on firm footing again and I rode into town. Hencefort1 ! will, however, wait until I come 70 a'bTidge or remain across the river until the water goes down."

 T like it much better since I wis ited England" was his reply. Its beauties are more apparent when one has been away for few weeks"
 Now that you are back, doctor, what do you think of your trip to England?' he was asked.
 Why I think it was the crowning glory of my life, a glory that not only I am proud of myself. but I am proud because 1 believe that the honor was twofOld-one for me and one for my country"

Officer Humm last night received a hurry call to come to No. 9 Upper Lowell as there was a riot in pro- gress, and upon the officers arrival he found that Mrs. Kresse and a Mrs. Pearce had taken possession of the house occupied by s. L. Holland and wife and were throwing the fur niture out in the street. The officer placed the two women under arrest after the house had been somewhat restored to it's normal condition. This morning Mrs. kTesse swOre to a com plaint charging Holland with wilfully and unlawfully disturbing the peace by using prOfane and abusive ian guage. From what could be harned ! Of the facts. it seems Holland and his wife rent their present quarters from | Mrs. Pearce. who is a sister of Mrs. 1 Kresse and that Holland had been in 1 arrears in his rent Last night the | two women went there to collect what was coming but instead of getting the 1 money they were told to call again.

Secretary Cortelyou has been too ousy
keeping the Treasury Department on an
even keel during the panicky times to
inaugurate reforms, but he has some
Spring cleaning in mind, and it will be
brought about as soon as he gets
around to it. Secretary Taft has had
too much trouble to look after in the
West Indies to give much attention to
the War Department of late, but no
great reforms are in contemplation
there.
The Navy Department and its great
bureaus are well -;atisfied with them
selves, and regard the activities else
where with cOmplacency.
The State Department is one of the
smallest of all the Executive Depart
ments. altho it's work, of course, is very
important Secretary Roots activities
re of different character. He is par
iicularly interested in getting the diff
culties between this Government and
Canada adjusted, and seems to be sue
ceedinS, Tor he mas recently announced
that q treaty for the appointment of a
Commission to take up the various fish,
cries and boundary questions has been
practically concluded between himself
and ambassador James Bryce. He is
also making treaty with Germany,
covering our trade relations, and cal
culated to secure permanent admission
for our meats. The Germans have had
n hard time since their Government ex-
Guided American meats. They can not
raise cattle and sheep enough for their
meat supply, and since the barriers
were raised against these products the
price to the German consumer has been
steadily soaring.
