THREE ENTOMBED
 MINERS RESCUED
 BY WILLING HANDS

The recent cave-in at the Pueblo Mine in the Yukon, near Whitehorse, where nine men were employed at Jhe time, resulted in grave apprehension for the safety of the men. However, three have been rescued. according 10 the Skagvay Alaskan of Monday The Alaskan says:
 At late hour Saturday afternoon word reached here that Harry Gra ham, Thomas Davies and Nick Rado- vich, three of the entombed miners in the Pueblo mine had been rescued alive by the men who have worked necessarily to save their lives.
 When the men were released, they walked out of their tomb just as though they were leaving their work at the end of their shift.
 It seems that while they were bur jed three hundred feet in the bowels of the earth two of these men, Garham and Radovich, worked furiously for four long hours in the dark and wet in a successful effort to release Davies who had been separated from them by darting into another stope chamber when they heard the noise of the slide
 For a distance of over one hundred feet the tunnel separating them from their companion was filled with de- bris, and timbers twelve square and many feet long had to be removed in the work which these two men accom- plished
 It is almost a certainty that the three men at the two hundred foot level were carried away at the time that the cave-in occurred, and the three other man are believed to be en- tombed in one of the stope chambers in the level where the rescued men were found
 Fifteen men were requisitioned from Whitehorse today to aid in the work of rescue. this being made necessary by reason Of the fact that those who have been working have given out.
 Hope is still entertained that the other three men on the 300 foot level will be rescued alive.
