BURIED 17 HOURS BUT UNHURT.
Miner Is Rescued Alive — He Quits Work and Later Drops Dead.
Helena, Mont., June 2.—As a result of a cave-in at the famous Hope mine at Basin Charles Collins, miner, was caught beneath many tons of depris and rescuers were more than surprised at the end of seventeen hours to find him absolutely uninjured, the timbers having protected him. So great was the fright superinduced by the awful experience, however, that Collins decided to lay off and went to Butte, where he dropped dead.

The body was turned over to undertaker Moorehead where the remains laid until Tuesday when the corpse was identified as that of A. J. Divine, of Fargo, a plumber. He had a wife and two children in Fargo who were notified and the remains were forwarded the next morning.

During the heavy thunder and rain storm Wednesday the lightning played havoc in a couple of places in town, striking at the home of C. V. Knox and Paul Roller. At the latter's a cow was in the way and was killed, and a horse was blinded. At the Knox home the chimney was struck, but practically no damage resulted beyond the general distribution of a considerable amount of soot, much to the disgust of Mrs. Knox.
