is KILLED
Giant Powder Blows Man
to Pieces Near
AltdVille

A shocking accident happened near
Altaville last Saturday afternoon in
which an Austrian miner named John
Michlivich, was blown into eternity by
the giant powder route. Michlivich,
who was Familiarity known as John
Rabbit" had worked at the Jack
Rabbit mine for long time, but was
working at the Smythe mine at the
time of the accident The deceased
had intended building himself cabin
near the mine, during spare time, and
on the fatal day was digging a cellar,
preparatory to erecting the structure
over it. At noon he ate dinner with
the rest of the miners, little antici-
pating the terrible fate that was in
store for him. About 2 80 p. m. he
returned from his work to get some
powder to blast some hard formation
encountered in digging. He knew
where the powder was kept and after
securing the desired article was going
back. He had proceeded about fifty
yards when an explosion was heard
and when the men at the mine went
out to see what had happened, they
found the headless and frightfully
mangled body of Michlivich lying on
the ground. His head, left shoulder,
neck and left arm were blown to
atoms, while the right arm was broken
and the trunk of the body badly null
tilated.
1t appears that Michilvich had
secured probably a half stick of
powder and was carrying it in his left
hand as he walked along, the hand be-
ing held above the waist or just below
the left breast when the explosion oc-
Cured. Whether the powder was
primed and fused and just what caused
it to explode will never be known. -

Bridge Case Tried

The suit of ANGELA Gardella VS. the
counties of Amador and Calaveras, to
quiet title to the Big Bar bridge pro-
perty, came up in the superior court
before Judge McSorley in San Andreas
Tuesday. The plaintiff was repre-
sented by F. j. Soilnsky, Paul Mort
and John Hancock, while district at
torney Keith looked after the interests
of Calaveras and district attorney
Vicini was here in the interests of
Amador. Court reporter Doan took
down the proceedings. The plaintf fl
introduced testimony showing the facts
of the incorporation, and showing eX-
penditures in the construction of the
bridge and the improvements of the
property.
The case was closed by the plaintiff
by three o'clock. The defendants sub
mitted no testimony, their case resting
entirely on the legality of the acts of
the supervisors in 1898, in granting the
franchise. If that act is sustained
Mrs Gardella's title to the bridge is
good as the franchise has several years
more to run. The case was submitted
on briefs to be filed in the usual
manner. Prospect.

License for Rabbits

A number of hunters have been
hunting for jack rabbits and cotton
tails without having procured the
necessary hunting license. They
seemed to be of the opinion that no
license was required for hunting of
this game. Clerk Huberty, however,
felt different about the matter and
communicated with fish commissioner,
Chas A. Vogalsang, and was informed
that license must be carried in or
