MINER FALLS TO
DEATH IN SHAFT.

Patrick Harrington. a miner work
ing near the 2000-foot level of the
Ward shaft at the Comstock mine in
Virginia City. met his death by fall
ing from a point a short distance be-
low the bnlkhead or the pump station
a distance of 115 feet. He was in
stantly killed by the fall which crush
ed his skull at the base of the brain,
and mangled the body in other ways.
Harrington. who was n of the
regular shift men, was working with
Henry c. Pound in the shaft about
two sets below the 1000. They were
connecting a hose that ran to the
Starret pumps, being installed there,
when Harrington thought the life
line was not long enough and sent
Pound to the 1000 to lower it.
Pound went up to the 1000 and was
in the act of lowering the line when
he heard something falling down the
shaft. He had been gone from Har-
rington hardly a minute when the
accident occurred. AS Pound left
Harrington the latter was standing
on the step with his arm around the
guide waiting for the line to be
lowered.
The shaft men Immediately went
down to the pump station where they
found the body lying On the bulk
head. Life was extinct. The body
was brought to the surface where,
upon examination by DR.. Hodgin, it
was found that the skull of the I'M
fortunate maj had been fractured at
the base of the brain, the right leg
had been broken and a deep cash was
found on the fieshy part of the fore
arm.
Patrick Harrington had worked in
the mines on the lode off and on dur
ing the past year and a half. Most
of the time he was employed at the
Ward and he was considered n of
their best shaft men. Some time ago
he left the camp but upon his return
about three months ago went to work
again at the Ward where he has been
doing shaft work since. He was a
man about 80 years of age was
born and raised at upper Ishpeming,
Michingan, and is known to have
cousins by the name of Ambough
living at Butte City. Montana. He
was a man well liked among his fell

CARSON COW WRECKS AUTO.

The first lesson that is generally
taught the auto driver is to sidestep
a COW. If she is in the road, gently
shoe her out; don't urge her with a
machine, as she is apt to change her
mind. and generally does so, much to
the discomfort of the auto driver n
his machine.
This all came to pass when jim
Regan's car crossed paths with a COW
on the prison road, says the Carson
City Appeal. The driver attempted
to pass, so did the COW, but she
changed her mind and as a result the
auto landed In the ditch with wreck
age enough to make a second ma
chine, while the COW is doing bust
ness at her regular stall.
The Regain auto will require many
days repairs and it is doubtful II 1t
ever will be the same after the en-
counter. After the mixup the parties
walked home from near the Bell
farm and their opinion of the gentle
kline is not to be repeated in a Sun
day school paper.
