FATAL FALL DOWN AN ELEVATOR OPENING
1t was stated In yesterday STAR that word had
been sent to police headquarters about 2:30
the I'd precinct station house, but that no name
was given. 1t was afterwards learned that
Joseph Flanagan, young man 10 years old,
employed at the slaughter house Of Messrs.
Franz & Meister, on the 18th street road, near
the Schuetzen Park, had been found dead under
the elevator at the bottom Of the ice house,
with the back of his skull broken and bruises
on his right temple. The supposition is that
he slipped through the elevator at the top, there
being no guards placed there to prevent such
through it would be likely to produce just such
wounds as the body showed. When the eleva-
tor was let down 1t was discovered that it would
not reach the bottom, and on investigation the
body was found to be below it, and was raised
10 the open air, and DR.. B. B. Adams sent for
but before his arrival life was extinct. 1t is
stated that this is the second accident of the
kind which has occurred at this opening in the
past year.

ct al. agt George Taylor ct al was argued by
Mr.. Totten for Compartments, and Mr.. N. Wilson
for defendants. The bill was filed to enforce a

case up claim that the percentage was Excess

ample.

Mr.. WRITER'S own statement of the origin
Of his poem Of "Maud Muller" Is quoted by a
correspondent Of The Springfield Republican. He
and stopped at a harvest field to inquire the
way. A young girl raking hay near the stone
wall stopped to answer their inquiries. Whit
tier noticed as she talked that she bashfully
raked the hay around and over her bare feet
and she was fresh and fair. The little Incident
left its impression. and he wrote out the poem
that very evening. But If had had any
idea," he said, "that the plaguey little thing
would have been so liked, should have taken
more pains with it, To the inquiry as to the
title, Maud Muller, he said it was suggested to
him and was not selection. 1t came as the
poem came. But he gives it the short German
pronunciation, as Meuler, not the broad Yankee
Muller.
