after it. we are pleased to see him
and his estimable wife doing so well.
The writer spent Sunday in Olivet
with friends, the Rogers brothers,
who own the mine there. They are
having some trouble in losing the en-
tries which they depended on for their
winters work. Mr.. Johnson informs
us that they hope to overcome their
difficulty and get the mines in nor
NAL condition at an early day. We
regretted very much our inability to
see Jack Rogers, whom we knew at
Swan, Marion county, number of
years ago. He was a driver in the
mines there. One day while going
down the entry with an empty car, it
jumped the track, in so doing knock
ing out a set of timber, which let
loose a lot of slate. 1t happened a
large slab fell on the car first, with
Jack under it, and ton or more fell
on top of this. He could be heard
talking while the miners were remov-
ing the slate. There was enough on
top of him to kill dozen men, but
Jack is like the proyerbial cat, he has
nine lives. and we are pleased to note
that he is still on top of the earth and
bids fair to remain number of years
yet. We had the pleasure of meet
Ing his wife while in town. whom we
found to be a very interesting lady.
We expect to return our visit at an
early day and hope to meet our friend
and talk of the days gone by. We
are pleased to see them doing so well
there.
