Injury in the Silver connor Mine
Artemus w. Joanson. son Of Hiram
johnson Of Eureka, met with . serious
accident while working in the Silvel
Conner mine, on Prospect Mountain
about Ave miles southeast of Eureka,
Monday afternoon by . hung-6re blast
Artemus, in company with hi'
brother, Adams. and w. B. Trip. wer,
working in the mine on the afternoon
stated, and had put in three holes and
charged them preparatory to setting
them of. Mr.. Trip. before the fuses
were lighted, started for the cabin tt
prepare supper, leaving Artemus and
Adams to attend to the blasting Of the
holes. The three fuses were lighted
and after seeing two Of them ''spit."
the two men retreated to Q safe dis
lance from the drift and awaited the
explosions Of the blasts. Two Of the
holes exploded, and after waiting q
short time Artemus went back into the
drift for the purpose Of endeavoring to
ascertain why the third blast had failed
to explode. While in the act Of stoop.
ing down he noticed the fuse Of the IN
exploded hole spit" He Immediately
assumed an erect position, and shield
ing his face and head with his right
arm. jumped back a few feet. when the
explosion occurred.
That Mr.. johnson was not instantly
killed is no doubt due to the fact that
the two blasts that went of had
loosened up q considerable space Of
ground ear the hung-fre blast, which
evidently broke the full force Of the
explosion.
As q result Of the accident he received
an ugly cut over the right BYE. which
laid the eyebrow and flesh back. pro-
ducing a wound about two inches long.
Another piece Of rock struck him on
the bridge Of the nose. breaking that
member; the right side of his face is
peppered with small particles of rock
and swollen. and he received other
bodily bruises. but not Of a serious
nature.
Mr.. johnson was able to see out of
the injured eye shortly after the acct.
dent, but it being filed with particles
Of sand, is now considerably infamed
and it will be necessary to await until
the Inflammation subsidies to determine
the extent Of the injury.
On account Of the deep snow on
Prospect Mountain Mr.. Johnson was
not brought to town until the following
day by his brother and Mr.. Trip. He
is now at his fathers residence on
North Main street under the care Of DR..
