A terrible accident happened at the hoisting works of the Providence mine early yesterday morning, by which Benjamin McCormick, a young man who was well and favorably known, came to his death in a frightful manner. McCormick had charge of the machinery and noticing that the key of the spur wheel of the hoisting rig had fallen out, he told Joseph Kilroy, the car lander, that he would put in a temporary key, room, on the floor below, and watched McCormick drive in some iron shivs or wedges to hold the wheel fast on its shaft, When this was done McCormick told Kilroy that he thought everything was all right and to go ahead and lower the car. Kilroy pushed the empty car off the landing in the usual manner, but it had hardly started on its way to the mouth of the shaft before he heard a‘short cry from McCormick and the machinery suddenly came to a stop. flurrying below he found McCormick held down by the spur wheel, his body being through the wheel, between the spokes or arms, It seems that after telling Kilroy to lower the car McCormick thrust his body through the wheel to look at something, and before he could get out again the wheel started and knocked him down upon the floor, where he was held with such force that his neck was broken and his chest and body terribly crushed. Death myst have been almost instantaneous, as when Kilroy got there. he was dead. The wheel revolves in @ narrow opening which allows it to extend below the floor of the building. McGormick’s body rested upon the floor on each side of the wheel, one of the spokes of which was pressing heavily against him, Kilroy summoned assistance from the mill as soon as possible and the unfortunate man’s body was taken out and subsequently removed to the family residence on Gold Flat. After the accident, which happened about 3 o’clock in the morning, all the men who were on shift in the mine quit work. Benjamin Franklin McCormick was a steady, industrious young man and was well liked by all who knew him. He was thirtyfour years and six months of age, and was raised in this city, being born here we believe, Ten years ago he was married to Miss Kate Coughlin, His wife and one son, aged nine years, survive him. The news of his death -was—a—terrible shock to them and to his other relatives. Deceased was the son of Hamilton McCormick. “The deepest sympathy is expressed for the ser— rowing ones, and every one deplores the sad accident which was the cause of this great affliction. The funeral will take place tomorrow afternoon at 2 o'clock, from the not including taxes assessed against. local benefits; amount expended in the purchase or production of live stock, or produce sold’ within the year; necessary expenses actual-— ly incurred in carrying on business, occupation or profession, and not elsewhere deducted in this return; losses actually sus— tained during the year, incurred in trade or arising from fires, storms or shipwreck and not compensated for by insurance or other— wise, and not already deducted in ascertaining profits; actual losses on sales of real estate purchased since December 31, 1892; debts ascertained within the year to be worthless, and not elsewhere deducted in this return; cost price of material purchased for manufacture or resale, not increasing stock on hand December 31, 1893; dividends heretofore included in the statement of profits, under paragraph 13, received from corporations, companies -or associations, on which the tax of two per cent. has once been paid by such corporation, ++ee->——_ -—— Ir you respect your stomach and want to _ know that you get the finest and purest coffee grown, use MiLLAR’> MepAu Mocna and Java.

A Bill That Will Probably Be Passed by the Legislature. Below is the full text of the substitute juror bill prepared by Judge Davis and reported favorably by the judiciary committees of both the Senate and the Assembly: An act to amend the Penal Code by adding a new section, to be known as Section 1089 of the Penal Code of the State of California, relating to alternate jurors. Section 1089.—Whenever, in the opinion Deceased did not belong to any lodge or organization, and carried no insurance on his life. ~~. Britt Appointed. By the election of Jackson Temple to a seat on the State Supreme Bench, a vacancy has been created in the ranks of Supreme Court Commissioners. E, W. Britt of San Diego has been appoiuted to the vacancy by Gov. Budd. It will be remembered that Judge Niles Searls is one of. the Supreme Court Commissioners. That Commission does not speak with the authority of the Supreme Court. But being created to relieve the Supreme Court of a portion of its work, any decision of the Commissioners which is confirmed’ by” the Supreme Courg stand as the edict of that body. The Commission has rendered ‘many important decisions, and Judge Searls is one of its most efficient members, : ooo Sixth Birthday.

At Carr f the Judge of a-_Superior—Court—about—to try a defendant against whom has been filed any indictment or information for a felony, the trial is likely to be a protracted one, the Court may cause an entry to that effect to be made in the minutes -of the Court, and thereupon immediately after the-jury is impaneled and sworn, the Court may direct the calling of one or two additional jurors in its discretion, to be known as-‘‘Alternate Jurors.” Such jurors must be drawn from the same source, and in the same manner, and have the same qualifications as the jurors already sworn, and be subject to “the same examination and challenges ; provided
that the prosecution shall be entitled to one, and the defendant to two peremptory challenges to such alternate jurors, Such alternate jurors shall be seated near and take the same oath as the jurors already. selected, and must at all times upon the trial of the cause, and for a failure so to do are liable to be punished for contempt; they shall obey the orders of and be bound by the admonition of the. Court upon’ each adjournment of the Court and except as hereinafter provided ,upon the final submission of the case tothe jury. If, before the final submission of the case, a juror die, or become ill, sovas to be unable to perform his duty, the Court may order him to be discharged and draw the name of an alternate, who shall then take his place in the jury-box, and be subject to the same rules and regulations as though he had been gelected as one of the original jurors. ee te Devays are dangerous.

Some remarkably rich quartz is being taken from the Trevaskis ledge near Iidian Flat. Eight» pans of rock, weighing in all about 160 pounds, was pounded up a few days ago and yielded $219.43, the gold being worth $17,09-per ounce. This is . the mine on which Prof. George A. Treadwell has a bond and is endea.voring to get English capitalists to buy the property. A TRanSCRIPT reporter was sho wn a pan containing a pfospect obtained from nine pounds of quartz. The bottom of the pan was_cov~ ered with gold, scattered all through the fine dirt and sand. It was estimated that there was about $40 worth of gold in the pan. Mr, Treadwell intends sending this prospect to E'ngland without removing the dirt or small ; vieces of rock that were left, in order that tie parties who. are thinking what the rock . contains. The quartz was taken out about eight feet below the surface and the vein matter is about eighteen inches thick. ~~ : eS ImaIcRANTs ano! returning voyagers ‘find in Ayer’s Sarsapa: illa a cure for eruptions, boils, pimples, ecz ema, etc., whether resulting from sea-diet sud life on ship-board, or from any otherc suse.
