tigate matters it was found that the
cable upon which the buckets run
from the Martha carrying ore to the
Greenback stamp mill, had slipped
off of the wheel, catching the electric
wires running beneath it, causing the
burning out of all the insolation. It
caused a great deal of excitement
but the damage was soon righted.

pared for business. All ran rapidly

of the company throughout the
county. For i cents a month the
subscriber is given free switching
