TH: PLUCKY FIGHT .FOR LIFE OF
MINER STEVENS.
F_.
His Rescuers Dug Through 127 Feet of.
Rock to Save Him—He Tapped with His
Hummer Now and'l‘hen to Let. the Buys
Kno'w He “’us There.
A remarkable instance of physical
endurance has been brought to notice
in Arizona, where a miner was en—
tom‘bed for thirteen days in the Mam-
moth mine‘by a cave-in, and hislres-l
cuers dug through 127 feet of hard
porphyritic rock to save his life. James
Stevens, the miner, stopped in Den—
ver on his way to his family in Central
City, and told his story. Stevens is a
man of medium size. An Englishman
by birth, he has lived in the mines of
Colorado for eighteen years, during
which time his habits were of the most
regular nature. It was due. to his past
life and his sturdy constitution that
he survived the ordeal of existing in a
narrow drift underground without food
or water in dense darkness for thirteen
days. Men have survived a longer fast
than that he was forced to undergo,
but not under such discouraging con-
ditions, 4 ‘
“I am— feeling pretty well now,” he
said, “though kind of weak here”-—rub-
bing his hand across his stomach—-
“and my legs are still shaky. I’ve quit
gaining in flesh now, though I stilllack
ten or twelve pOunds of weighing what
I did before the cave—in. But you
should have seen me grow the first
days after I was out. I could feel the
flesh coming on just the same as I
felt it leaving me in the mine. I
weighed 156 pounds before, and when
they pulled me out I weighed only 112
pounds. I lost that weight in just
thirteen days and ten hours.
“When I went to work on Sunday
night, the old timbers in the worked-
out portion of the mine were creaking
at a great rate and the dirt was flying.
That was nothing unusual, for it had
been going on for a long time. We all
knew that the cave-in must come some
time, but nobody was looking for it
quite so soon. Preparations had been
made to fill in the stopes with dirt
from the new extensions in order to
make that old part safe. I was work-
ing alone in the second level extension
into new ground, away from the old
workings.
"As I stood in the drift, thinking
What it was best to do, there came a
fearful roar, the ground about me
trembled, and I knew it was all up with
me. I could hear the old timbers
crashing as they broke under the
weight of the mass of rock' above them
and the thud of the rock and dirt fall-
ing down into the lower drifts and
stopes. I jumped back and ran to-
ward the breast of the drift. The air
blew in strong, puffed out my candle,
and filled my throat with dust.
“Then I lay down and tried to think
it all out. I was penned in good and
tight, and there was nothing to do but
to wait, and, maybe, die. As soon as I
had made up my mind to the situation
I began to take account of stock. I
found I had a piece of cake and two
pieces of pie in my dinner bucket, and
about two quarts of water. I had tWo
candles and fifteen matches. My to-
bacco I threw away, thinking that it
' might cause me more harm than good.
I 'decided not to eat excepting when the
pangs of hunger grew too severe and
then only to take a small nibble of the
pie or the cake. I might as well have
eaten the food all at one time, for the
nibbles seemed only to make the pains
more severe.
“About three hours after the cave-in
I-heard sounds of rescue work. First
it was a rapping on the air box, and I
knew that the men must be down in
the third level near the main working
shaft, for the airbox came up to the
new extension from there. I took my
hammer and rapped back, and then
they knew that I was alive. Then they
began to sink near the prospect shaft.
I listened to their working when I
wasnot sleeping, until on Wednesday
all sound ceased. I listened and wait-
ed, and wondered what had happened.
Not a blow was struck for five hours.
It was then that I began to give up all
hope. If they could not reach me that
way, how was I to escape? That was
the toughest day of the whole time. I
was in intense pain from hunger and
thirst. My throat hurt me very much.
It was hot, and stinging pains chased
each other right along. Sometimes
the stomach pains were so severe that
I was helpless and after they would
die away I lay back exhausted. The
last bit of food had disappeared on
Tuesday noon. It was just as well that
no other man was left in the drift with
me, for one of us would have certainly
eaten the other.
“There was not a drop of water in
the drift after my canteen was ex-
hausted, and my throat ' pains were
frightful. After that awful silenCe of
five hours on Wednesday I heard
sounds in a new place. I located them
up in new ground and then I knew that
they were going to sink for me through
the rock. I was doubtful. about it. I
sized up my strength and decided that
I might hold out nine or ten days alto-
gether. Three days were already gone
and they had to blast through 127 feet
of solid rock.
“The pains now eased up, and the
soasms occurred only once or twice a.
day. I realized I was getting weaker
rapidly, and I felt as though my flesh
was dropping off. My knees grew. so
weak that I could hardly stand. I
wondered if, after all, I should die
easy, with no’ horrible pangs of thirst
or hunger. I slept all I could, and the
on:v exertion I made was to knock
with my hammer once or twice a. day,
still.
to let them know that. I was
alive. Thc‘last day Divas the hat-dis:

to bear. I was afr'sld that they might
give up and'conclude that I was dead.
The pains increased and I was in con-
stant agony. My mind was beginning
to weaken, but I tried to think ra-
tionally. ,v I hammered and scraped
every little while to assure them that
I was alive. This made-them think I
was crazy, I afterward learned.
“On Saturday morning, about 7
o’clock I saw light and the glisten of
'adrill point. I jumped up and shouted,
‘Is that you Joe?, “
“ ‘That you, Jim?’ came back to me.
“ ‘For God’s sake give me water,’ I
called. '
“ ‘Can’t do it, old fellow,’ the‘answcr
came, and then the men worked away
faster than ever.
“In a few moments they had made a
hole and I was pulled through. 'They
would give me no Water, but some
medicine, and then they put me back
in the drift to wait until the sun went.
down. They said the mercury was 105
degrees and that I could not stand the
heat and, light. After sundown I was
hauled out in a bucket and the men
cheered. They wanted tocarry me to
the reading room”, but I would not
have it, and I walked a hundred yards.
Then I went to bed. For three days
more they made me do 'without water,
giving me only medicine. I' had to
live on chicken broth for two days and
still without water. Then I drank and
ate a smashing dinner. The first three
days I gained fifteen pounds and I
mended rapidly after that. The boys
got up a. benefit ball for me and the
company paid me full wages for the
time I was underground and did not
charge me a cent for my board.” ;

JENNY LIND’S MARRIAGE. -
It occurred at Boston and Her Honey-
moon Was Spent at Northampton.
Of all those who took part in the
concerts of Jenny Lind in this country
nearly fifty years ago, the least distin-
guished of them all was the pianist,
Otto Goldschmidt, but he distinguished
himself sufficiently shortly afterward
by marrying her.
This last eyeut was foreshadowed
by a quiet visit to Northampton in
Jan. 1852, when she engaged a
suite of rooms at Round Hill hotel. A
little later Otto Goldschmidt, of Ham-
burg, Germany, and Jenny Lind, of
Stockholm, Sweden, were married at
the residence of Samuel G. Ward, of
Boston. ‘
The utmost secrecy was observed re-
garding the mrriage, and in fact, noth-
ing was known of it until Mr. Gold-
schmidt went for the certificate on the
morning of the wedding. As she said,
she “cheated the people nicely.” Her
silver was marked with an 0 enclosing
a J, which were afterwards found out
to mean Otto and Jenny. She said she
was nothing but a cipher anyway.
Her life in Northampton was passed
JENNY LIND AND HER HUSBAND. ”
in much the same way that a cultured
American woman would pass her time
in Sweden. The manners and cus-
toms of our countrymen and women
were as interesting and amusing to
her as those of Sweden would be to
us. She wanted no society, but sim-
ply to enjoy her honeymoon quietly
and in her own way. She was wel-
come everywhere, and she mad-e use
of her freedom by paying visits wher-
ever her fancy led her. She was not
generous in the large sense; her larg-
er gifts in this country at first being
part of Mr. Barnum’s advertising
scheme, but she delighted in distribut-
ing small sums just as an American
traveler with plenty of money would
do in Europe, and these she placed
where they would do the most good.
Before leaving Northampton in May,
1852, Mr. and Mrs. Gold'schmidt gave
‘a farewell private charity concert in
the new town hall, which netted near-
ly $1,000. Of this sum $700 was given
to the library of the “Young Men’s
Institute,” the nucleus of the
present Clarke library, and the re-
mainder placed in the hands of Dr.
Wm. Allen for private charities.
The illustration herewith is from a
d'aguerreotype of Mr. and Mrs. Otto
Goldschmidt, taken soon after their
marriage. The pose is characteristic-
ally foreign. You may see just such
groups in any gallery where the young
peOple go who have not been long on
our shores. Their affection is always
frank: ,We were always grateful to
Jenny Lind for looking the camera
and us straight in-the eye, and glad
Goldschmidt did not. It would
have spoiled the charm.——.Jasthampton

“Talk about horses?” said Robert

“Why certainly!” And he waved the

realize how long ago he bOught Dexter.
“The performance of Star Pointer in
cutting the pacing record within the
two minute limit,” said Mr. Bonner,
“doesn't appeal to me personafiy, so
very much. I don’t take much interest
in pacers. I have never owned one.
Last winter. I said to J. Malcom Forbes,
the yachtsman and horseman of Bos-

cents apiece for ’em.’ We Were talk-
ing of pacers at the time.
“Well, Mr- Bonner,’ said Forbes,
‘you value them more highly than I
do; my price for ’em is ten cents a
dozen.’ As Mr. Forbes once paid $125,-
000 for a trotting stallion which cov-
ered a mile in 210%, the largest price
ever paid for a trotter in this country,
his estimate of pacers is comparative-
ly low. - - .
"The ultimate horse—the highest
Speed at which the future trotter or
pace“ will be driven—is something
about which we can tell nothing; so
much depends upOn mechanical im-
provements and the condition of track
and wind. ~
“The bicycle record for one mile has
been lowered from about 2:30 to the
time of a running horse within a very
few years by the use of the pneumatic ,
tire and the ball-bearing axle. The
bicycle sulky increased the speed of
trotters by five or six seconds. In
some cases it increased the pace of
colts by eight or nine seconds, yet
many drivers hesitated at first to use
it. We cannot tell What further change
may be in stere for the horseman. It
may be in the tracks; it may be in the
shoeing of horses. If no further im-
provements are made to aid the speed
of the horse, I do not myself expect to
live to see a horse trot in two min-
utes.
“There is the question of wind re~
sistance. A good many old horsemen
have told me that they never realized
the force of wind resistance, just as
they never fully appreciated the value
of good roads until they themselves
had ridden the bicycle and furnished
their own motive power. The wheel
has unquestionably helped horsemen
to a better~understanding of the con-
ditions of speed. I have -kn0wn the
wind to make a difference of three sec-
onds in a quarter of a mile in the
speed, of-a trotter.”
“The track must make a great dif-
ference, Mr. Bonner. Which is the
fastest track in the country?"
“The Terre Haute track is consider-
ed the fastest. Western tracks gener-
ally are fast. Some drivers speak of
tracks on prairie soil as ‘springboards.’
The Columbus, 0., track is very fast,
and I look upon it as next to Terre
Haute, with Nashville third. ' The
Meadville track, and that at Rigby,
‘ Me., are cousidered the fastest of our
Eastern tracks. --
“As for the ultimate horse—the limit
of speed—well, no one knows. But I
think all horsemen are agreed that,
barring new mechanical agencies, rec—
ord breaking must be less frequent in
future, and must generally proceed by

168 pounds. The normal elephant
weighs at the same age at least three

DUNKIRK’S BUSINESS‘WOMEN.
I’wo Coal Yards Run Successfully and
Honestly by Different Ladies.
Mrs. Nellie Kimball, of Dunkirk, N.
Y., has demonstrated the good results
of industry and business calculation.
Six years ago, in the beginning of her
widowhood, she decided to continue the
business left by her husband, this be-
ing a coal and woodyard, situated
near the shore _.of Lake Erie, entirely
away from the active portion of the
town. She was a young woman, had
iust recovered from a long illness, and
did not feel equal in any way to the
work before her, but. she went bravely
In. Under her excellent management
the business has grown and is now
large and thriving. In addition to a
good local trade, she has the contract
for supplyin all the coal used by five
dredges employed by the Government
for cleaning the harbor. This contract
calls for about 3,000 tons. She has to
"coal.up” two of these dredgers. every
evening. She is her own and only
bookkeeper, weighs every ton of coal
sent out from the yard, hires and dis-
charges the men, and gives personal
attention to the care of her horses.
