Two Imys, named respectively Edwin and Harry, sons of II. A. James of the Fifth ward, went up on Mouduy for a load of lumber, and started down on Tuesday morning with about 1400 feet. Edwin waa driving the team and Harry was attending to tin brake. About a half mile from tin mill the lead tipped over idc Sjiawn creek with Harry under math it, and Edwin partially under the (chiu. Several (eamsteis driving other teams witnessed the accident aud hastened to thu ns sistauce of the buys, but tlieii united efforts were insufficient to release them, aud a man was sent back to the mill for assistance. Wheu help arrived Edwin war got out from under the horses, badly braised but with no Ikiivi broken. Attention was then given to Harry, who was certainly to be dpad, as the entire load and wagon were on top ol him and hiB laxly had been com pletcly submerged in water for at least half an hour. The binding chains were cut aud the wagon tipped right side up, afterwtricfi most of the lumber was removed. Only one foot wsb visible and that was under water. He was finally pulled out anil laid ou the bank, to all appearances (lead. Some lime afterward, probably half an bour, he waa seeu to gas fur breath, and efforts were madi-trevive him and a doctor was sent for. Dr. Snow responded to thu call and found him still liviug. His injuries consisted of coucus sion of the brain, internal injuries aud bruises; but he still lives and about au even chance of recovering. If he lives, his will he added to the list of miraculous eseniies. The combined weight of the wagou ami lo;ul would exceed five thousand imuiids. Ninety nine limes out of u hundred, this ininnnsc weight tipping over on a person would kill them. The escape from drowning is still more marvelous. Dr. Snow attributes thu wonderful esrajie from drowning to the fact that thu blow that caused concussion of the brain stunned him, and during the suspension of animation he ceased to breathe, therefore the lungs were not filled. It is an unfortunate affair for the family. Mr. James has been out, of employment for Bom etime, and a few wtiks ago met with an accident in the canyon that broke several of his ribs. This would lie a fitting time for his friends to him render muck needed IHHMiuiury assistance.
