Fire Causes. Excitement
A fire that for a time, threatened
the home of Win. J. Nettie, who re
sides at 44 Broadway, was discovered
last night and hastily extinguished by
a water bucket brigade. The blaze is
supposed to have started in a woodpile
in the rear of the building, and the
flame was eating its way along the
joists between the weather boards and
the ceiling. Doors were torn off and
the interior of the home pretty badly
wrecked by use of picks and axes in
trying to discover the burning sec
tions.

The National Billiard parlor is cer
tainly doing a rushing business. The
place is managed in a most orderly

friends by his courteous treatment
during his short Btuy in our city.
The Ledger Appreciated
Whille the Ledger falls heir to lots of
abuse from those whose tempers are
ruffled and whose plans are disturbed
by Its uncompromising attitude in
fighting local graft, the sentiment of
the true citizens is . overwhelmingly
with it. Even ware it not so, we
should continue in the same path, bo
cause it is right, and for the best in
terest of the community. We fre
quently meet with encouragement of
the practical kind, like the following.
"Inclosed find a check for $6 to send
each of the following persons one
years' subscription for the Ledger.
Told them the good work you were do
ing for the' taxpayers, and induced
them to subscribe for the Ledger."

CRUSHED IN
MINE SHAFT
Nick /Vliloslavich Suc
cumbs to Injuries
at Hospital
Nicholas Miloslavich, aged 23 years,
who resides at the National hotel, met
with a terrible accident at the Argo
naut mine, at which place he was em
ployed as a miner, on Tueday morning
last. The manner of the accident, as
we were informed, was that Milosla
vich pive the bell for hoisting the
skip from the 33 hundred level, and
then jumped on the skip as it started
up. For some unexplained reason, the
young -miner was thrown backward,
and was instantly crushed between the
skip's side and the wall of the
shaft. The body fell in a heap on a
sill in the shaft, as the skip passed on
up.
The fact that Ihe shaft is an incline
one, is all that saved the irafortunate
man from instant death
The fellow workeu, who was accom
panying the victim on- the skip, has
tened back to the scene' of the disaster
after informing others of the accident,
and the injured man: was rescued from
the dangerous ix>Bition in wiich .he
was lying, and hu?ried- to the iurface,
where the doctor was awaiting: him,
with a carriage. Ho was removed to
the county hospiSal, and everything
was done to relieve him of the terrible
; pains from which he- was severing,
and t«i help him fjain. vitality enough
to be able to uiatergo an operation
which was decided upon as necessary
h$ both "Drs. (Jail and Endieott to
save his !life.
Tlhe err ushed .ribs- were pulled free
from hia lungs and heart, and. his pulso
became* more normal immediately. He
also, tol.l tnose about him that he could:
bwsLtiw . much tetter. Abcvat 8 o'clock
ore Moj iday evening the patiant becune
unuon: scious and remained in that «<jn
.diftwjD . during the night.
On Tuesday he revived, and eon-
sent' >d to an operation. Dr. Endicott
tssi sted by Dr. Gall, performed the
WF ;ration, which was successful from
» surgical standpoint, but too vitality
* f the young man was so greatly ex
' nausted that he died at 9:30 on
Wednesday evening. The remains
were taken to Huberty's undertaking
parlor, and prepared for interment
which will be held to-morrow from
St. Patrick's Catholic, church.
Frank Miloslavich, an older brother,
who is the only relative in this
county, waa out in the country hunting
all day Tuesday, and nearly collapsed.
' when he was informed of his brothers
I condition upon his return in the even
ing.
A mother and three younger sister?
of the family all live in the state of
Dalmatia, in Austria, and are depen
i dent upon the earnings of the two
boys who came to this country to work
! in the mines.
They have been here five years, and
! both learned the English language and
; quickly adapted themselves to Ameri
can ways. The general conduct of
• lie victim was commended by all who
! new him. Frank had made all ar
rangements to send his brother Nicho
; l:ts hack to Austria, to as to be able
... better protect and care for his aged '
mother and and his younger sisters. '

It is reported that the clean-up for

made to secure a fat run, and probab

J. R, Tregloan, who is in charge of

Band Holds Fine Ball
Jackson Military band gave a
fisrt class ball on Saturday evening
last, which was in every way a sur
prising and gratifying success.
The band is certainly deserving of
patronage in its undertakings, as it
means considerable to any city to
have an organization that can be
called on without fe?\\ngj shamed. t<?
have it^plp-^ tot any occasion.
Forced to Ctuit
The new moving picture show, be
longing to Richards of Angels Camp,
which started up in Sutter Creek, with
[the intention of permanently locating
there, was compelled to quit, owing to
the unfavorable conditions presented.
The three identified with the outfit
passed through Jackson last Saturday
on their way to Calaveras county.
The handicap of $2.50 per night that
they were required to pay for license
while Ratto was allowed to run by the
free grace of the Amador county
authorities, was too much for them to
buck up against. They exhibited an
attacnemnt for $112 levied against
ithem by the local electric light and
[power company for electric power,
etc. They were running only two
weeks, and of course the electric ser
vice could not have amounted to that
much in that space of time. They left '
their paraphernalia in the hands of
the authorities, and trotted home,
bearing with them, however, a very
poor opinion of the "square deal" as
dealt out in Amador county.
