Coroner Stone returned from Blue Canvon Thursday morning where he had held an inquest over the remains of a man that had been killed on the railroad track the day before: He learned at the inquest that the name of tlie man was Finley White, a native of Scotland and forty years of age. It seems that White was a section hand and having received his pay, got drunk, and while in that condition lay down on the track and was struck by the pilot of the bead engine ot train No.

7. White leaves a family in Michigan. E. C. Rogers of Sheridan was in town Thursday and reported busy times in that section.

Tlie rain has wet the ground sufficiently for plowing and farm ers are taking advantage of the opportunity to put in grain and to do their fall plowing. The farmers have sowed a larger acreage to grain than they did last year. Mr. Rogers estimates the increased acreage in his vicinity at fully one-third. Mr.

Rogers is somewhat of a cripple, having received a kick from a horse on the 15th of this month which nearly broke his left leg, besides cutting a gash over four inches in length. The wound looks as though it had been caused by an axe. A Fatal Accident. James Greenwood while at work in the planing mill of Towle Brothers last Wednesday, met with an accident that ter minated his life in a few hours. Accord ing to the account of Claud Waniehek, with whohv -Greenwood worked, the acci dent 'happened in this manner: The matching machine and rip-saw work in frames side by side.

Tlie space between them is narrow, just admitting a car on which the lumber is run to and from the machines. It seems on Wednesday, Wan iehek, who runs the machines, stopped the planer, intending to start the rip-saw to cut off that portion of a timber which the planer had skipped. He accordingly went below and adjusted the belt to the counter-shaft which runs the saw, and was shutting the trap-door in the floor when he heard a noise and an exclam ation of fright and pain from Greenwood, who had been cleaning the floor of shav. ings and other litter. Wanichcke thinks that Greenwood in passing between the machines stumbled over the car track and full upon the saw.

It was done so quick that he could not tell just; how it was done. Greenwood's left arm and hand were torn and mangled, the cords were drawn from the shoulder, and his right hand was cut through tlie palm the thumb being cut off, the skin alone pre venting the hand from dropping off. Waniehek and Miller knotted their hand kerchiefs around his arms to stop the flow of blood, and hi-ljicd him to his cab in, the accident happened shortly after o'clock in tlie afternoon, and Green wood died a little after midnight. James was the son of William Green wood, and was born at Bath in this coun ty. He had worked for Towle Bros, for several years, and was much liked by his employers and the mill men.

Deceased was a member of Mountain Par lor, No. VM, N. 8. (I. W.

Price per Ua. i or tale by E. V. tinowdcii. tlve the J.

to at railed the Institute to order. After mu sic by the choir, Mr. Warren Sawyer was elected Secretary for the day and Miss Mat 1 McKay, Assistant Secretary. Professor McOrew opened the exercises the day with a few remark on the "Formation of Right Habits," embracing: 1. Personal cleanliness and neatness.

2. Self respect. 3. Cheerfulness. 4.

Industry, 5. Attention. 6. Mastery. 7.

Truthfulness. 8. Honesty. 9. Kindness and sympathy.

10. Promptness and dispatch. 11. Cheerfulness and obedience. 12.

Duty and responsibility. He said that by putting these habits into the public schools it cultivates the habit of right thinking, acting, and feeling. Man is a bundle of habits, and these habits make cliaracter, and charac ter makes the destiny of the person. Habit has its silken cords so woven about the fibers of the person that the being is the unconscious result of habits. In order that the habit of cheerfulness be cul tivated in the children, the teacher himself should be cheerful, leaving the world and its cares on the outside taking none of them into the school-room.

Teach the child to respect himself, and that he has work to do which can be performed by no one else. If the child is kept busy and taught the value of time, the habit of industry, promptness and dispatch, would be formed. Let no subject be passed over unmaatered, but take up a few things thoroughly, and much better results will be obtained than if many sub jects be passed over hurriedly. Cultivate reverential habit of truthfulness and honesty. The speaker spoke of the Act igned by President Cleveland expelling cadet from West Point for not telling the truth.

Mr. Burns followed with a few remarks regard to the Institute. He things that the older teachers should be lenient in criticising the 'methods brought forward, on account of bein? old, for they are intended for the benefit of young and inexperienced teachers. The teacher who becomes a success in his profession must thoroughly understand the principle underlying that profession. He thinks the teacher who has Kad professional training has about five years advantage in starting in the profession, for they understand the principles which form the foun dation of their work.

The teachers were urged to pay" particular attention to the subject of Civil Government in the public schools of our county for that school which fails to teach civil government fails in its highest duty. The teachers of today are required io teach more than those teachers of twenty years ago, for the standard of intelligence is higher to-day tlxan it was then. After a short recess the subject of In stitute was open for discussion. Mr. McGrew next spoke of the effects of alcohol end narcotics on the human system.

He thinks that the teacher must, in the first place, to make a success of this study, practice what he preaches and in vite the pupils to imitate his actions or habits. He mentioned several expert ments that might be made to demonstrate the effects of alcohol upon the human system, thus making the subject a live one to the pupils. Pictures showing the effects of alcohol on tne body will better appeal to the child than will the lectures or drv talks so often given. The Coun'y Superintendent brought up the subject of organizing a branch of the State Teachers' Reading Circle. Mr.

Mc Grew spoke of the advantage of joining the National Reading Circle, in that the course is not so narrow. The afternoon session opened witK a discussion on the advisability of organizing the Reading The motion was carried that a circle be organized tinder the National Reading Circle. Miss Leona Carrick of Newcastle was elected Chairman of the circle, and Mr. H. A.

Saxe was elected Secretary and Treasurer of the circle. Miss S. E. Iioelke read an excellent essay on "Genius and Geniuses." Mr. McGrew gave a brief outline of Na tural Science as it should be taught in the schools.

The Committee on Resolutions then read their report. It was adopted as a hole. Afterward a rising vote was tak en on the length of time to be occupied bvthe next Institute, and it was the senso of the assembly that a five days' session was more beneficial than a tiiree flnva' flcmtinn. Closing remarks were then maw Xtj PntnTintenilont Hums and 1 ml. Mctirew.

A vote of thanks was given to Mr. McOrew for his kindness to tin all. The Institute then adjourned. Thankafflvlnff.

J. Blanchard died at Penryn last Wednesday froin stroke of paralysis. 3lr. Blattcliard tu an ol resident of thig county, having come here at an early day. At first he engaged in mining, and gradually turned hi attention to fruit-growing at which be achieved quite a success.

For a number of yean Mr. Blanchard bad au Hired from rheumatism which interfered greatly with hi labor on the ranch, but be bore the infliction patiently and did what be could toward improving liia place, Mr. Blanchard was a member of several societies, and waa prominent in all of them. 11a waa a man of more than ordinary intelligence and waa well informed on a variety of subjects. His remains were interred yesterday in the Red Men's cemetery at Newcastle, under the auspices of that order.

The Pioneer Quart mine. This mine is situated near Damascus and is the property of ex-Senator Fair. ledge is a big one, varying from a few feet to forty feet in thickness. The tunnel is over 600 feet in length and drifts have been run from it for a considerable distance along the lode. The rock is good milling ore, and very rich prospects have been taken from The company baa built a very good wagon road from the top of the ridge to the mine.

At the mouth of the tunnel are the blacksmith shop and boarding house. The greatest undertaking is the building of a tramway from the mouth of the tun nel to the mill which is in process of erection in Humbug Canyon. This tramway is 2430 feet in length, and is a trestle on which are laid the rails. The grade for a distance of 450 feet is about five feet to the rod. The cars will be run by an endless cable.

The loaded car will pull up the empty one. The mill is placed at the foot of the mountain for the purpose of getting the necessary water-power. A ditch has already been dug along the hillside to Damascus Canyon, where dams have been built for the storing of water. The mill will have twenty stamps and will be ready to crush ore by the time water comes. This enterprise has given employment to quite a large force of men this fall, and will give tquartz mining a new impetus in the Damascus mining district.

The company has plenty of capital and will work the mine for all it is worth. IktUagikack Mine. This mine is situated about two and one-half miles above the Indian Springs house, and extends in nearly an easterly direction across the divide. It has been prospected for years by a company that hud sufficient faith in ii to start a tunnel which was subsequently abandoned on account of its being too high, In 188(i the mine was bonded to the French com pany, which owned the Golden River, Bed Point, and ether claims in the Iowa Hill and Damascus mining districts. This company, on May 1st, of that year, began grading at a point 500 feet below the top of the main ridge, and forty feet below the mouth of the old tunnel.

On the 18th of May the tunnel was started, For the distance of 244 feet the tunnel run by hand, but the remaining dis tance has been run by Burleigh drills. On the 3d of October last the tunnel had been driven into the mountain 900 feet, and at the present writing is 1300 feet in length. The rock is quartzite of varying hardness but never so soft and shelly as to reouire timbering. At the 900 foot point the rock was extremely hard neces- itating the use of several drills to put in a hole for blasting. Although the rock waa hard at the entrance as high as 48.7 feet were made by hand drilling In one week.

The Burleiirh drills have made 73.5 in one week. The grain of the rock which at the mouth crosses the tunnel, at tbe distance of 900 feet, swings around 90 degrees, or, in other words, is parallel with the direction of the tunnel. This is a curious fact, and the change of direction i supposed to have been caused by the breaking down of the outer portion of Hie rock bv some convulsion of nature. The tnnnel is 7x8 feet and extends in straight line on grade of three-eighths of an inch to twelve feet, and is com para tirely dry. The drills are run by com pressed air.

The company has crccte an office, boarding house, and compressor works and buildings necessary to the prosecution of the work. A store and several homes and cabins complete the settlement, which commands a fine view of the North Fork and several of its tri-bntariif), as well as some- of the towns along the railroad. William Ralston fnperintendant, and J. T. McCsll Foreman of the mine.

These young men de- nerve a deal of credit for the efficient an systematic manner in which they have managed the nferprise. They can give some of the veteran miners points in de veloping a mine. Tlie tunnel has been rnn so far at a comparatively low cost not exceeding 112 42 a foot, including materials. If the company develop rich mine, and lie Indications are very favorable, other companies will begi eperations in the this" part of the divide will become the center of at traction tg milling nieo. of a A ball ill be given by Auburn Hose Company ao.
