HE members of the Aesembly committee are beginning to realize that there are two sides to the prison punishment question. It will be well also if they realize that the agitation can be given such a tarp as to disturb prison discipline for years tocomg. Even now there. are indications that the more turbulent element among the convicts are ripe for a revolt. A single ill advised step may cause very serious trouble. The loose talk and impradent actions of « Prison Director caused what is known as the “bread riot” at San Quentin during the administration of Warded Shirley. However, it is evident from the tenor of the interviews given out by the members of the com mittee since their recent visit to San Quentin that the story of the troubles first given ouf is far from stating the case correctly or even approximately. The Examiner correspondent quotes one of thems’; as saying: “We found San Quentin in better condition than we had been led to expect by the reports of the regular committees, and we have no reason to be-= lieve that @ ‘clean house’ had been arranged for our inspection. ‘The Warden allowed us to go where we pleased and to interview anyone we desired. We examined the convicts singly and in executive session, none of the attaches being present, and each witness was assured that.he could speak ‘freely without . danger of. being punished for saying things the officers might not like. To our surprise most of the prisoners declared that Aguirre was a just and reasonable humane warden and that he was ready to hear any complaint they had to make. By the ase of thie straight jacket, they eaid, he had eompletely eradicated the opium évil, and one prisoner who bas spent twenty-five years in the institution asserted that during all that time the discipline had never been so good asitisat present.” = . . eee eeeeresene eremerbes If the records, inside and outside the prisons, of‘ the convicts who bave made the most damaging accusations against the officials could be laid before the pablic in detail it would materially facilitate a clear understanding ef the situstion.

For farther particulars WINER ASPHYKIATED Deadly Gases Overcome One and Another Has a Close Call ee ee Me Word was received at this city last evening of a fatality which occurred at Dr. Pesheck’s mine on Bear river, about a mile and a half from You Bet Station, whereby one miner lost his life and another narrowly escaped the same fate, The ledge is reached by tannel which runs in a distance of 800 feet, thence by a perpendicular shaft 600 feet in depth. At the bottom of this shaft two men were engaged in drilling a hole—Vincent Bargonoli and John Bracelin, both of this city, They were on the day shift and this was their lact hole before quitting time. When ready for powder Bargonoli ascended _ the shaft to procare the charges which were kept stored in the tunnel, On arriving at the mouth he was met by such a dense volume of amoke and poisonous gases that forced him to try and escape it. He attempted to reach the month of the tannel, but the deadly fumes were too much for him and he stagged and fell forward on his face in the muddy slimes «hich usually trickles alongside the track in most mines, . Upon his partner failing to appear with the caps and powder Bracelin became alarmed, for he then fer the firet time remembered that they had a sbort while before heard a strange rumbling sound, as of distant thunder emenating fromabove. Becoming now thoroughly frightened he hastened to the mouth of the hole, but he, too, encountered the over-powering fumes. Quickly realizing that unless be could reach the open air he was-a-dead man Bracelio made a dash for the mouth of the tunnel. When -witbin 100 feet of it be, too, was overcome, and he sank stupefied to the ground,Just at this critical period the night smoke and deadly gas was now issuing. Suarmisiog at a glance what had happened and knowing to what peril their fellow-workmen were exposed,: they ubnflinchingly entered the death-trap to try and effect thetr rescue. They form of Bracelin and bore him to the outer air where he was revived with . great difficulty, Again entering the death chamber they groped their way to the body of Bargonoli and tenderly ecsrried him out when all kuown means available were resorted to to resuscitate him, but to no purpose, for the spirit of the sturdy miver had winged its flight to other shores. The asphyxiated man was & native of Italy and leaves a wife and child in that country to mourn bis sudden taking off. : Upon investigation it was found that a quantity of powder was placed near a stove—which is kept in the tannel—to thaw oat, and it is thought that on acconnt of its close proximity to the beat the nitro glycerine exploded filling the tannel with its destroying fumes. Charles Stocks and Samuel Butler, . two well-known miners of Grass Valley, who were examining the mine, had just left it a sbort while before the explosion occurred, and they are now thanking their lucky stare that they. left when they did.

General Winfield Scott, the hero of the Mexican war, used a secretary for all his correspondence, private as well as Official. Once, in the absence of his secretary, he undertook to write an order for the transferring of some provisions, and spelled “wagon” “waggon.” Later, the secretary in looking through the various memoranda, etc., found the order and detected the error. “General,” he asked affably, “by what authority do you spel) ‘wagon’ with a double ‘g’?’ Scott never turned a hair as he re plied without a moment’s hesitation: “By what authority? By the authority of the major general commanding the armies of the United Statea, sir! What better authority do you want?” Limiteé Father—Johnny, brother bas the you give him h gested.

At the bottom of this shaft two men were engaged in drilling a hole—Vincent Bargonoli and John Bracelin, both of this city, They were on the day shift and this was their lact hole before quitting time. When ready for powder Bargonoli ascended _ the shaft to procare the charges which were kept stored in the tunnel, On arriving at the mouth he was met by such a dense volume of amoke and poisonous gases that forced him to try and escape it. He attempted to reach the month of the tannel, but the deadly fumes were too much for him and he stagged and fell forward on his face in the muddy slimes «hich usually trickles alongside the track in most mines, . Upon his partner failing to appear with the caps and powder Bracelin became alarmed, for he then fer the firet time remembered that they had a sbort while before heard a strange rumbling sound, as of distant thunder emenating fromabove. Becoming now thoroughly frightened he hastened to the mouth of the hole, but he, too, encountered the over-powering fumes. Quickly realizing that unless be could reach the open air he was-a-dead man Bracelio made a dash for the mouth of the tunnel. When -witbin 100 feet of it be, too, was overcome, and he sank stupefied to the ground,Just at this critical period the night smoke and deadly gas was now issuing. Suarmisiog at a glance what had happened and knowing to what peril their fellow-workmen were exposed,: they ubnflinchingly entered the death-trap to try and effect thetr rescue. They form of Bracelin and bore him to the outer air where he was revived with . great difficulty, Again entering the death chamber they groped their way to the body of Bargonoli and tenderly ecsrried him out when all kuown means available were resorted to to resuscitate him, but to no purpose, for the spirit of the sturdy miver had winged its flight to other shores. The asphyxiated man was & native of Italy and leaves a wife and child in that country to mourn bis sudden taking off. : Upon investigation it was found that a quantity of powder was placed near a stove—which is kept in the tannel—to thaw oat, and it is thought that on acconnt of its close proximity to the beat the nitro glycerine exploded filling the tannel with its destroying fumes. Charles Stocks and Samuel Butler, . two well-known miners of Grass Valley, who were examining the mine, had just left it a sbort while before the explosion occurred, and they are now thanking their lucky stare that they. left when they did.

General Winfield Scott, the hero of the Mexican war, used a secretary for all his correspondence, private as well as Official. Once, in the absence of his secretary, he undertook to write an order for the transferring of some provisions, and spelled “wagon” “waggon.” Later, the secretary in looking through the various memoranda, etc., found the order and detected the error. “General,” he asked affably, “by what authority do you spel) ‘wagon’ with a double ‘g’?’ Scott never turned a hair as he re plied without a moment’s hesitation: “By what authority? By the authority of the major general commanding the armies of the United Statea, sir! What better authority do you want?” Limiteé Father—Johnny, brother bas the you give him h gested.
