gotten to the turntabie when Brennan
noticed that there was no oil can on the
dummy and went after one. When he re-
turned to the street the dummy had been
pushed up the track almost to the trap

spokes of the rapidly-revoiving wheel, and
his body was thrown forward with terrific
force. The wheel carried him for about
half revolution and then threw him into
the far corner of the pit. fifteen feet away,
horribly crushed and mangled.
The cries of the gripman and brakeman,
who witnessed the accident, attracted the
attention of Superintendent w. J. Dawson,

dent Dawson, who entered first, reached
Brennan, he was dead. The body
was taken out and carried to the power
house and at . o'clock removed to Bonney
& Stewards. An examination of the body
at the morgue showed that almost every
bone in it was broken. The bones in the
legs projected through the flesh. the chest
was crushed in and on the back of the neck
was long deep cut.
At 10 O'Clock the news of Brennan's
death was conveyed to his young wife who
was patiently awaiting the return of her
husband. at their home corner OF Ash and
Depot streets. She was nearly driven in
sane by the news. and all attempts to paci-
fy her during the day were unavailing.
Brennan was 80 years of age and came
here from New Mexico over a year ago
with his wife. Just about a year ago he
entered the employ of the From; Street
Cable Railway Company, and was one of
the most trusted men on the road. He
was general favorite among the men, too.
He was member of New Mexico lodge
of Knights of Pythias, in good standing,
and the local lodges have taken charge of
the body. 1t will be embalmed and shipped
to Chicago, where relatives of the deceased
reside. Mrs. Brennan will accompany the
body east

OF INTERESTING LACAL NEWS.

The visit To- this city OF the Fitzpatrick
Theatre Co, Wednesday night, demon
strated more clearly than.ever the crying
need Of an opera house, showing very
plainly that something must soon be
done in that direction. There was time
in the history Of Crystal Falls when
Doucet's opera house was ample Tor all
the requirements, but that time went by
a year or more ago The hall on We'd
nesday evening was literally packed with
humanity, so much so as To be quite un-
comfortable. The writerisgiven to under
stand that parties from outsideare ready
and willing To take as much stock in the
enterprise as will be needed 20 complete
the fund after the subscription paper has
been circulated among our town people,
thus insuring that the scheme will be sue
cessful il hut started. The original plan
was toercct an opera house and business
block TO cost between $4,000 and
S25. 900, and from the present condition
OF the feelings OF business men in this city
there is not doubt but that the money
can be raised right here at home. The
investment would certainly be a paying
one from the start. Now is the time 60

day last week. He works for Mack
Ewing there, and lives in his boat,
which he has tied up to the wharf.
The boat, a small schooner, lies several
feet below the wharf, and Jackson had
a ladder extending from the boat to
the wharf. The top of the ladder
slipped off the wharf just as Jackson
was ascending it. He had a heavy block
and fall on his shoulder and down he
went, Medinty like, between the boat
and the wharf. When he came to the
surface of the water and shook the
mud out of his eyes, he saidh he thought
an excursion had come down from

stuck out over the wharf log, looking
for him. f& Eatssq,

A Mothers Grief.

The mother of Ida Williams, who is
in Jail charged with disorderly con-
duct, was in this city Friday, hav-
ing come from her home in Rosen-
hayn. The mother formerly lived
here, and Was known by the inelegant
name "Plaster Eye" She called upon
the Mayor and informed him that she
should have been notified of her
daughters hearing, that she might
have been here, and for a time yester-
day she demanded another trial. She
said the disgrace was like knife thrust
to the hearts of her own and her hus-
bands relatives. She finally changed
her mind about the new trial and will
let the law take its course. She is very
anxious, however, to have the young
men of the beer club, which her daugh-
ter frequented, arrested and held to
answer for her crime.

6shed out of the large seine at Thomp-

the lower water haul Wednesday and
taken to Mr. Thompson's hostelrie
where it was weighed and measured.
1t weighed exactly ten pounds and one
ounce, measuring twenty six aad a
half inches long, three and five eights
inches thick and eighteen and half
inches in girth. Mr.. Thompson felt
highly elated over the possession of
this most remarkable catch. and with
becoming generosity, he kindly sent it
to Governor Leon Albeit with compli-
ments.
