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. Pool Parlor Well Liked The National Billiard parlor is cer tainly doing a rushing business. The place is managed in a most orderly manner, and the manager, v . young man named Jenkins, who came here from Napa, has made a host of 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.

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.

MINE NEWS ALONG LODE Interesting Accounts of A/lines Located In Amador Co. Bunker Hill Grading for the additional 20 stamps to the mill is completed a>id the work of making the concrete foundations is now in progress. Most of the lumber for the mill is on the ground. Reward Thin mine at Pine Grove is being operated by the Cranmer brothers, with verj encouraging results. They are running their two stamp mill on the high grade ore which they have taken out. This property is looked upon as very promising by all mining men who have inspected it. South Eureka. It is reported that the clean-up for the past month yielded between $90, 000 and $95,000 for the sixty stamp mill, an average of over $1500 to the stamp. No doubt an extra effort wa3 made to secure a fat run, and probab ly the plates were cleaned more thoroughly than usual in prospect of the shut-down of the miff for several months to repair the shaft. The mill is idle, and shaft'repairirijf la under- South Spring Hill J. R, Tregloan, who is in charge of the South Spring Hill properties, near Amador City,- has been in the county several days, accompanied by a mining expert,- named John McGee- of Tono pah, Nev,, whose business* i 3to in vestigate this mining, claim, with a view to report tO'a capitalist,. Charles Kirchin of Tonopaii, wHo with ot&ers, i 3 thinking' of investing; in: this county. He was taken all' over the minus,, and also' visitei the Bunker- HSU, Original Amador,.

He frankly admitted ihat nowhere- elfce iiad he seen ' such goldibeHrmg'lfedgts-.Ms here, except possibly one; mine in Pftontana. The Soutli Spring HJi:l has been idle for about 20 yoarc.. It was at one time the most pr-t«hveeive msne in the fljunty,. and- thero is every reason to ftelieve that it will respond! again in liberal yield taw the expenditure of the necessary caprtal to develop it proper ly. Irs tile iiu.?s of its, prime, the owners were offered a million and a half lor- it,, and declined to sell. The eastwrn; ovmers, distributed the whole output .ia dividends to the stock holiieKSv without providing a surplus fund to meet any contingency, so that when a barren streak was met. with, which has been the history of evevy big mine in Amador county, there was no, moriey available for ex ploration, and the owners were un willing to assess themselves and s<?, the shut-down occurred. 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.
