KILLED BY CARs.-The mangled
and dead body of Thos. Anderson,
son of David Anderson, was found
on the line of the X. & NJ. at Lock
s, last Sunday morning about day
light. Some of his companions who
were with him that night left him
sitting on platform at that place
near the track with his feet on the
rails, his elbows on his knees and
his head between his hands. 1t is
supposed that he fell asleep and was
struck by the freight train that
passed up between the hours of
three and four o'clock that morning.
Squire G. S. Abbott, of Poca, who
was notified, summoned a jury who
rendered a verdict to the effect that
the death of the deceased was caus-
ed by the freight train passing over
him. The body was mutilated so
that it was almost unrecognizable.
Mr.. Anderson was a young man
we'll liked, and his untimely death
must have been a severe blow to his
relatives and friends.

Waterbury evening Democrat., 1891-04-02
BEEF COMES HIGH.
Scarcity of Cattle and High Price of
 Grain the Cause.

Scarcity of Cattle and High Price of
 Grain the Cause.
 The price of beef is away up and it will be quite a while before it takes a drop. Retailers are astonished at the price they are compelled to pay for their beef and complain that there is a corner on the market.
 There is no corner. There are three causes asc ribed by the local dealers for the high price beef is now bringing One is the scarcity of cattle, another the large number of cattle exported, and another is the sharp advance in the price of grain.
 One local dealer declared that the price demanded for beef now is the highest known by him in four years. He said that so many cattle are being exported that it reduced the supply greatly, and also that the beef now being received is grain fed. Cattle raiserS have to pay so much for the grain upon which the cattle are fed, that when they sell they have to get larger price. He further said that the price would remain high until the grass fed stock began to come in, and then there would be d drop.
