Jackson, CAL, Aug. 29.-The fire in
the Argonaut gold mine was discov-

left their companions on the 4,500-foot
level and started for the surface. When
they reached the 3000-foot level they
found it blazing. They made mad
dash through the flames and arrived
safely at the surface.

were unconscious when they reached
the surface. 1t required two minutes

burning levels They never expected
