WILLIAM DOW VICTIM
OF FATAL ACCIDENT

Three fatalities, within as many
weeks, is the toll due to accidents
recorded among the mines of this
and adjacent districts. The first
was Tom Grover, who met death by
being crushed in a caye-m at Bris-

Sunday morning.
Dow was on the night shift, as en-
gineer. 1t was about quitting time
and Just before hosting the last
man out of the mine, he put on his
coat preparatory u walking down
to his cabin. When the last skip
was up, Dow turned off the gaso
line with his right hand and at the
same time reached to turn off the
oil cup suspended above the main
shaft. Meanwhile, the ragged ends
dangling from his coat sleeve became
caught in the master gear and in
almost twinkling the engineer was
drawn into the very jaws OF death
Although the gas feed had been shut
off, enough momentum was left in
the wheels to do their fearful work
and Dow's arm was ground to q
pulp in the immense cogs He call
ed for help. and the men whom he
had just hoisted from the mine
ran to his assistance 1t took all
the strength of four men to move
the machinery backward, and ever
then It was necessary to use a
pocket knife to cut mangled particles
of clothing and flesh before the un
fortunate man could be extricatet
from his precarious position. With
his maagled arm dangling at his
side; his collar and shoulder bones
broken; his lungs pierced by brok
en- ribs; besides other serious In
Ijuries and against the protestations
| of his associates, Dow insisted OF
walking down to the hospital, where
medical attention was soon availa

Home Run Copper
To Resume Operations

According to an interview had with
NJ c. Godbe by the Deseret News,
the mine Of the Home Run Copper
company in the Bristol district is
to be placed on the active list again.
The property is equipped with two
hoists, one of which Is 40 horse pow
er, The expectation is to have Z
compressor working in shrort time
and to push the work of deve-oping
what he considers an unusually mer-
itorious property Then there are the
necessary outbuildings such as shops
and bunkhouses.
The workings on the Home Run to-
tai about $40 IT. of shafts,drifts and
raises. The main incline shaft Is
down to the 225 leve' from which a
winze has been sunk so IT. further.
The new work will consist of drift
Ing easterly on the 225 level. This
is to crosscut the mineralized lime
stone formation which gives every
indication of showing up ore depos-
its bigger than that in which the
incline was sunk.
nj the sinking of this inccline IL
carloads of ore were shipped, or APP
proximate'y 400 tons which carried
good values mainly in gold silver
and lead. Located about $50 it. east
from the incline is an outcropping
fissure which runs high in iron as
we'll as carrying values in the prec-
ious metals. But before this Is reach
ed the expectation is that the drift
will enter .ore chambers which have
sent small stringers westerly into
the main shaft

PiOChc Metals viii
Patent Its Property

Local shareholders Of the Phoebe
Metals Mining company are in re-
ceipt of the following letter from
Frank b. Cook. treasurer of .shat
corporation:
AT a meeting of the board of
directors Of your company held on
September 10Th, it was decided to
make an assessment of one-third
cent per share on the outstanding
stock which is estimated to re-
turn about $1,000.
We are writing to explain that
this assessment Is necessary to raise
money for the balance cost for
patenting the company's property.
We have had long tedious process
OF acquiring title which involved su-
Ing the old Pioche-Nevada Consoli-
dated. getting judgement against
them and finally a sheriff's deed
| for the property, after which, the
time for redemption having expired
we instructed the company's at
torney, Hon. T.. l.. Mitchell. to
proceed to obtain patents. This has
been more or less expensive and
very tedious, but we are now up to
the point of paying the money to the
government, paying the attorney, sur
veyor and other necessary costs, for
all of which We require the money
from this assessment.
From now on the only expense at
tached will be the corporation tax
to the state of Utah, and property
taT levied by the state of Nevada,
which will amount in round numbers
to about 500 per year, and this
asses sment Is presumed to cover the,
taxes for both this year and next.
he camp of Phoebe is looking
much better at the present moment,
and Is shipping more tonnage than
at any time for. great many years
past. The company's directors feel
that the property should be con-
served and that at some. time later
We VIII reap tthe reward of our
patience"
