He was brought in from there this morning and though he will be laid up for some weeks with a broken leg, he is thankful the injury is no worse. Delor is a young miner. For some years he has been in the employ of Ingersoll & Esler at their mines out at Virginia Dale, and the other day while climbing down the shaft of the O.K. mine was seized with a sudden faintness, and losing his hold fell fully fifty feet to the bottom of the shaft, where his fall was broken by coming into contact with an ore car. Had the car not been just where it was Delor would have had his brains dashed out on the rock below, but as it was he suffered but a fracture of the leg. The fracture is a bad one, and will keep the young man laid up for some time to come. He has been mining three years and this is the first accident of a dangerous nature he has had.
