Nineteenth Annual Report of the Illinois Bureau of Labor Statistics, 1900
March 20, 1900, Edward Wise, aged 29 years, married, was killed in the mine at 
Fairmount by a premature blast of powder in his room. He had fired two shots and 
had gone in right away, before the smoke had cleared out, to light the third shot, 
and after lighting it he started out and the shot exploded, the flying coal struck 
him with full force, killing him instantly. He was employed by the Consolidated 
Coal Company, and left a widow and three children dependent.
