Another Accident at the Queen of Beauty.
The second accident was one which also was quite sufficient to cause a fatal termination. The sufferer in this casu is Henry Brown, who was employed in the Queen of Beauty mine an No. 3 level. It seems that the cage got jammed, and Brown, in endeavoring to right it, stepped on the well board, which gave way and he fell a distance of 30 feet. In his case no bones are broken, but his foot is much crushed, and the unfortunate man seems much shaken internally and appears in great suffering. He also is at the Hospital. ■:■..■ : , :
