Death Diary as Life Ebbed
PRISONER IN SHAFT
From Distant California Comes
Tragic Story of Fatal Accident
to Rockingham Man

Harrisonburg, Va, Nov. From
far off California comes a story of q
diary of death that was kept on the
back of an old assay certificate by
]. J. D. Miller, former resident OF
this place, who met with a horrible
end in the shaft of his mining claim
twelve miles north of Bridgeport,
Cal, on October 10.
The body was found last Satur-
day, with the left leg pinned against
the side of the fifteen-foot shaft by
a mass of rock. Miller stood up
right with his head thrown back.
The shaft is slightly inclined and
he must have seen the sun, which
stood on the meridian as he wrote
the last line of his diary:
The Diary.
Friday, noon-The thirteenth
day, no hope"
The certificate was rolled and had
been replaced in his pocketbook. The
daily record follows:
October Crank Yparraguirre,
Sweetwater: If help does not come,
send this message to M. C. Miller,
wife, Harrisonburg, Virginia, and
wire what to do with the body. J.

had been employed together. The

the West about nine years ago. His
wife, who before marriage was Miss

however, Frank M. McDermit, the
prisoners counsel, stepped forward

One safe is known to have contain
ed nearly half a million dollars. The
robbers, however, blew smaller
safe, which the express company Of
fcials say contained comparative

1t was at first believed that the
robbers had been entirely success

had been sent out, stating that the
express car was robbed, the crew
returned to the train, released the
bound messenger, and then discov-
cred that the robbers had blown the

Demand Ten per Cent Increase in
Salary With vscation---vote, by
Operators. Being Taken

Baltimore, Md, Sept. 25.--Baitimcrs
and Ohio railroad telegraphers. tele
phoners, station agents and lever mer
are voting now, 20 decide whether oil
rot they will go on general strike
demanding 10 per cent increase IL
wages, shorter working hours on ths
Southwestern lines and i5-days' an
nual vacation with pay.
Ballots have been mailed 10 all the
men concerned on the B. & O. lines
and they are now sending in their
votes TO the committee located in this
city. The majority will rule and
should the most Of the men be fol
a strike, within few days they will
be advised what to do.
The demand for 10 per cent in
crease grows out OF the fact that prac
tically all ether employees on the lines
have received an increase in salaries
The telegrarhers claim that $50 per
month Is too small a salary and they
want more, believing the company Ii
financially able to meet their de.l ands
Some time ago the Pennsylvania

vacation with full pay. Photographers
station agents. telephoners and lever
men aver that every other employee Is
granted vacation with full pay but
that they are denied the annual treat
They want is days annually with full
pay, but it is said 10 days would be
acceptable.
On the Southwestern lines of the b
g. o., some telegraphers are required
to work ~ hour shifts and others 10
hour shifts. The men believe 1t is an
infringement on them and demand the
eight hour working day.
A committee appointed to wait or
the officials were granted an audience
in Baltimore, September IA, after the
usual 80 days notice but the officials
refused their demands.
1t is stated on perfectly authentic
authority that the B. e o. offered $40.
600 a year to the complaining men
which would mean an increase of only
3 per cent. They however, were loath
TO accept it until after a vote had been
taken on the matter.
