The sad news OF the death of Frank
Agncw was the topic Of conversation
on the streets last Monday morning.
The accident which caused our esteem.
ed townsman his death happened, as
nearly as can be ascertained, about
half.past three o'clock in the morning
of the day above mentioned. Mr.. Ag-
new has for some years been employed
by the Douglass mill Company as boiler
man on the night shift, and it was
while oiling the machinery that his
clothes were caught in some manner by
the shaft, and he was killed. The
shaft makes about seventy revolutions
per minute, and therefore death must
have been almost instantaneous, as the
body of the unfortunate man was car
ried around the shaft at every Ievolu-
ton. The first person to discover the
accident was Mr.. H. w. Ely who with
Mr.. Ernest Gelbrecht, was about to
make the 3 o'clock change. Mr.. Ely
heard humping noise in the ma
chinery and upon investigation found it
to be the body Of Agnew on the shaft.
The mill was stopped Immediately and
the clothes of the unfortunate man we've
cut loose from the shaft. Agnew was
found to be dead. The last seen Of
Frank by Gilbrecht was about IL
O'Clock, and he was last seen alive by
Ely about half-past z o'clock. The
corpse was Immediately taken to the
Odd Fellows Hall 1t was scarcely re-
cognizable, even by intimate acquaint-
ances. The left leg was torn entirely
off; the head was frightfully gashed
the body bruised in dozen places and
the right arm badly mangled. About
s O'Clock some friends took upon them
selves the sad task of breaking the
news to Mrs. Agnew. The news was
received with much grief, and the un-
fortunate woman could hardly compre-
bend that it was a reality. Deceased
was a member of the l. o. o. F. and
A. o. U. w. Lodges. and was forty-hve
years OF age. He had been employed
in the Douglass mill for some sixteen
years. His many friends join with US
in extending TO his bcreaved widow and
relatives their heartfelt and sincere sym.
patty.

Esmeralda Items.

The following items of interest are
from the Walker Lake Bulletin of last
Wednesday:
The expected sale and transfer of the
Garfield silver mines and the Lapanta

The boys did some shooting Monday
night, but they were too far gone in
liquor 10 do any damage.
A new gold field has been discovered
in Hawthorne District. The new dis
coyery is east of any previous locations
and promises we'll. The formation is
large and very rich rock is found.
The Dictator mine is climbing the
financial ladder. A new vein has been
discovered which assays over 500.
This ledge will soon supply as much
ore as most ordinary mining districts,
if the present rate Of Improvement con.
tinues.
On Saturday evening last the south
bound train passed what was supposed
10 be a bundle Of blankets near the
track this side of Belleville. On arriv-
ing al Belleville blood was found on
the wheels and parry went back and
found the body Of Chinaman cut to
pieces. A buck shot was found in his
head, and as he left Rhodes marsh
with money, which was not found on
him, it is supposed that the Indians
killed him and robbed him and threw
the body on the track.

Oddly enough, at $50, just as Mr.. Joseph
