MINER KILLED BY DYNAMITE EXPLOSION



    William H. HUNTER was instantly killed and his body terribly mangled

by an explosion of dynamite at the camp where he was employed near Cima,

California, last Monday morning.  Thomas H. HUNTER, a son, who resides in

this city, was notified by wire and went to Cima, returning to Vegas with

the remains.  The funeral was held at the undertaking chapel, Rev. W. H.

ROGERS officiating.

induced by pneumonia following an accident at Telkwa, B.C.  He had been

recently engaged in mining at Humboldt, Arizona and at Cima, Cal.

    He leaves surviving him, two sons, Thomas H. HUNTER of this city and

J. H. HUNTER of Humboldt, Arizona and two daughters, Mrs. O. A. REIGLE of
