On the 12th of Jan 1930 A powder discharge which had failed to explode clamined the life of one man and seriously injured two others in the King Mine No.1 at Hiawatha about 4 o'clock monday morning. Gus Helsten, 31 was instantlly killed and Mat Rauhaula, 50 and Arne Maine, 21 his companions suffered severe bruises and cuts around the face and chest. Rauhaula was taken to Salt Lake by J. P. Russell, safety first engineer, Monday afternoon, while Maine was taken later. His condition was so serious he could not be moved sooner.
The men were working in the main tunnel, a mile and a half within the mine, when they picked into the powder, which evidently had been placed there some time ago by workmen while blasting.
Arne Maine died 22 January of his injuries. Arne is the son of Mr. and Mrs Robert Maine of Scofield and is unmarried.
