Miner Enters Blazing Powder
Magazine in Bowels of Earth to
Save Lives of Companions.
BUTTE, Mont., June 10. Bravely
entering a hliixing powder magazine
300 feet below the surface of the earth,
Michael Dunn, foreman of the Lexing
ton copper and. silver mine, extinguish
ed the flames just in time to prevent an
explosion of 12"0 pounds of dynamite,
saved the lives of 200 men- and the
mine f ruin total destruction. ' Dunn is
the hero of the camp today.
Dunn was making his regular rounds
of the workings shortly after midnight
today when he mnelled smoke. I lives
ri gat ion showed the fire to be on the
SOU-foot level, where the powder mag
azine is located. Ho rushed to the
magazine, and, unaided, fought the
flames, which were already gnawing at
the wooden cases in which the dyna
mite was parked.
There were cases, containing .".It
pounds of dynamite eaeh, in tin maga
zine at the time, and aa explosion would
have resulted in the complete destruc
tion of the entire mine. Dunn broke a
water pipe and within a few moments
hail flooded the magazine and all dan
ger was past. Then he continued his
round of inspection. The miners didn't
discover their narrow . escape and the
heroism of their boss until the shifts
wore changed later.
The fire originated by the crossing
of two electric wires. The Lexington
