Monday after: 07n about 4:30 o’cl-ck Melville Casper, eldest son of K. Casper, was drowned in a reservoir at the Manzanita mine. . In company with several other boys young Casper went in the pond to bathe and swim, Casper being abable to swim, got upon a raft and was paddling around, when his raft collided with a raft that other boys were riding on. The collision threw Casper off into the water. George Keller, Joe Hamiltou and a boy named Adams were on the other raft. Seeiny the peril of their comrade, one of the-boys;-Geurge Keller,;-attempted-to~save him. The'drowning boy took Keller under the water several times and struggled so hard that the latter was unable to get him out and was in danger of losing his own life. The boys on the raft pulled towards the two who were in the water and got near enough for Keller to reach the raft, but the frantic struggling of poor Melville broke his hold and both sank again. They came up next time under the raft. The drowning boy was beginuing to lose consciousness, and Keller, realizing his own danger, managed to break away from him. Finding their efforts futile the’ boys hurried to town and gave the alarm. At Chinatown they met Sigourney’s express wagon, in which W. P. Sigourney and Herbert Cooper were riding. Being told of what had happened, the men drove rapidly to the reservuir, stripped and plunged in. . The water was very cold and it. was, impossible to remain in very long at a time. Not knowing the exact spot. where the boy sank, it took some time to find the body, which Sigourney succeeded in doing after diving five times. The bottom of the reaervoir is very irregular, being shallow in some places and having deep holes and cuts in other parts. At the point where the accident occurred the water was nearly ten feet deep. A crowd went out to the reservoir, about a half mile from town, a huodred or more people, men, women and boys, being present when the body was recovered. Sigourney brought the lifeless form to the surface and Cooper-fastened a rope under the arms, and threw the other end of the rope to the bank to Phil Byrne and Ike Herold, who pulled the body ashore. Life was extinct. The clothes of the unfortunate boy were put on and he was placed in the express ~ wagon and conveyed to the family residence on Coyote street. ' Melville Casper was 14 years, 6 months of age and was avery bright and promising boy: His parents are heart-broken over the terrible affliction that has so suddenly befallen them, and universal sympathy is extended to the family. It is truly a sad event. : : Coroner Daniels of Grass Valley came. up last evening and impaneled the following jury tu hold an inquest: George L. Hughes, J. A. Northway, Henry Lane, ‘T. Giles, G. R. Harlbert, W. Black. They rendered a verdict that deceased came to his death by accident, «ee Deeply Regretted. ‘The sad accident which happened yesterday afterncon by which Melville Casper lost his life, cast a gloom over the community. Last evening the drowning was the principal topic of conversation, Evérybody deplores the terrible fate of the boy, and al sympathize with the parents and other relatives, The grief of Mr. and Mrs. Casper is most poiguant. Melville was their eldest child and the high hopes jthey bad of an approaching bright future for“him were, without the slightest warning, blasted by the cruel hand of death. He was dutital son, well liked by all who knew him, and a favorite among his schoolmates, who esteemed him for his pleasant disposition and kind, polite manners. one of the brightest pupils in his class. Deceased was fourteen years old last November. The funeral will take place op Thursday atternoon at 2 o'clock. NS Ne k { Awarded Highest Honors—World’s Fair.

Under the Idaho management the wages had never been less than $3 for such workmen, and while the men were peaceable they were determined to work for no Jess than the standard scale.

Grass Valley Union: There was great excitement in town last night for half an hour or so when thirteen or fourteen car-men and landers came in from tho Maryland mine looking for Superintendent Dorsey, A notice had been posted at the mine that wages of car-men in future would be $2.50 per day and landers $2.75. Under the Idaho management the wages had never been less than $3 for such workmen, and while the men were peaceable they were determined to work for no Jess than the standard scale. Assistant Superintendent Victor Dorsey, tormed all who left their work that: they could return to work at $3 per day, and thiis morning everything will move along a, though nothing had happened.
