George  Butler,  a miner  employed  in  the
Pacific  mine  at  Pinos  Altos,  had  a narrow
escape  a few  days  ago.  He  was  cutting  a ditch
when  a mass  of  rock  above  him  gave  way  and
came  down,  completely  covering  him  up.  He
was  extracted  by  some  of  his  fellow  miners  and
taken  out  to  the  fresh  air.  Although  consid-
erably bruised  and  cut  up,  no  bones  were  broken
and  he  will  be  able  to  report  for  duty  again  in
a few  days.
