last spring by VIM. Balsley and was

Mrs j. I. Jones of Railroad Flat,
had a narrow escape Saturday last.
She was on her way home from ANA
dor county in a single buggy, and
was accompanied by her little son
who is cripple. When near the
roadside saloon short distance
from Butte City. the animal became
frightened and started TO run. The
little boy was driving at the time
and as soon as the animal started to
run he dropped the lines, and in a
few seconds after was thrown from
the vehicle. Mrs Jones caught hold
of the lines, but was unable to stop
the frightened animal, and just be-
fore the grade was reached that leads
to the Big Bar Bridge, she was thrown
out of the buggy. She managed to re-
tain her hold of the lines, however,
aud after being dragged about 80 feet,
the horse came to a standstill. James
Woodcock happened along just about
this time and with his aid things
were Strengthened out and Mrs Jones
came on through to this place. The
little boy sustained quite a cut on his
head while Mrs Jones received a few
slight bruises. Citizen.

LEAVES
FOR THE EAST
VETERAN MINING ENGINEER
CONCLUDES HIS WORK IN THE
DISTRICT AND GOES TO FILE
HIS REPORT ON ELY CENTRAL

VIM. A. Parish, mining expert, left
yesterday morning for the East, fol-
lowing two weeks in the district on
the work of exporting Ely Central
properties for. the benefit of undey-
writer's who have engaged to take
over the $500, 900 bond issue of the
company.
Mr.. Parish had nothing to say pre-
vious to his departure with direct
bearing upon Ely Central property
but the one of his interview last
week on the camp in a general way
affords a pretty strong hint that the
Ely Central report which he will turn
in to the underwriters will be a
favorable document. It's publication
is naturally awaited with a great
deal of interest here.
During his visit Mr.. Parish made
a very thorough inspection of not
only conditions on Ely Central, but
of those on surrounding properties
which might have bearing upon it. AS
is known through his interview, he
looks upon the camp in a general
way as a wonder and destined to
make phenomenal performances in
the future both in a mining and COM
mercial way. A great many friends
of the veteran mining engineer, and
in all camps of the continent he has
a large following of these, hope that
he may return to the district at a
later date in the year and in the
meantime their best wishes follow
on his trail.
Mr.. Parish went from here to the
Johnnie district, in Lincoln county,
where he will examine the Johnnie
mine before returning to New York.

II not. why not? And. If so, where are
they?
Yesterday I heard It argued that
there was no cause for woman to
lose an arm; that women do not go to
the wars and are not engaged in occu-
pations that are likely to carry away
a part Of their body. But that rea-
soning is not sound. Many women
work in mills and factories, and they
are as liable to accidents in the streets

but, although men in the same situa-

do.
