UNDER THE WHEELS.
The section Foreman at Terry Crushed
by n Locomotive.

News was received at this place last
night from Terry to the effect that Sam
uel Berg. Northern Pacific section fore
man at that station. had been instantly
killed about 1 o'clock in the afternoon.
under very peculiar circumstances.
Berg had been out repairing the rail
road track. with the work train. the en-
CINE being behind the caboose, as is
very often the case. to facilitate the
about the time mentioned it became
necessary to go to Terry to permit a
train to pass, and the engineer pushed
the cars on to the side track. Mr.. Berg
being in the caboose. Thu engine was

backed out and started along the main
track to resume its position at the head
of the train.
Suddenly, and when the locomotive
was very close to the car. Mr.. Berg wal
seen to step off the caboose and walk on
to the main track, directly in front of
the approaching engine. 1t happened
s % quickly that those who saw it. could
hardly realize the impending danger un-
til the unfortunate man was knocked
down, and ground to death beneath the
wheels Of the engine. 1t was seen that
both legs and arm had been cut off. and
that the head and body were also badly
bruised. The unfortunate man was inn
mediately carried home, and notwith-
standing his fearful injuries, it was
about three-quarters Of an hour before
death ended his agony.
Mr.. Berg has railroaded for many years
and no one can understand how he hap.
pened to be SO careless. He was for
merly section foreman at Miles City. and
left here for Terry about two years ago.
Mr.. Berg was about IS years of age, and
a native Of Norway. He was a married
man. and leaves a wife and two or three
small children. who are at Terry.

\ Very small Blaze.

About 3 o'clock this morning a few
pistol shots, quickly followed by the din
raised by the electric light whistle and
a locomotive in the yard. aroused nearly
everybody in town to a realization of the
fact that there was another fire. Those
who got up quickly saw a small blaze.
and then all was darkness again.
The alarm was given for a fire outside
Of the little red cottage on the north
side OF Bridge street. between Sixth and
Seventh streets. and the fire department
responded so soon that the whole thing
was owe in less time than it takes to tell
the story, while the structure was not
damage more than s75. The house is
owned by Fred Schmalsle, and is in
sured in Schwartz's agency.
A glance at the surroundings showed
that the fire had started in a pile OF
kindling wood on the west side of the
house, and ran up the wall ia the roof,
the latter being the only part damaged,
except by water. In the absence Of any
more plausible theory. its origin is at
tribsted to incendiarism.
The front part of the building was oc-
cupied by Mrs. Pym. and her things
were quickly carried out. Then atten-
ton was turned to Fred Schmalsle's
room, which was in the rear. and Fred
was found just coming out Of the house
with his oil painting of General Miles
under his arm. just then the jingle Of
a hose cart bell was heard. and the owner
concluded very correctly that the blaze
would be out before the stuff could be
removed, declining to have it touched.

which threatens to assail YOU In the form of
chills and fever or some of the forms of miasma-

alkaloid and mineral drugs, which merely re-

health, seek aid where il is always forthcoming

where malaria is far more violent and prevail

the maladies to which the national tonic and
corrective is adapted. Physicians everywhere
know its genuine worth.

escort one platoon OF eight men mount

All OF the local wheelmen spoken to
are enthusiastic over the INTELLIGEScER
scheme for an old.fashioned Fourth OF
July celebration. When the chamber
OF commerce makes up its celebration
committees the wheelmen will be rep.
resented, and it is thought that with
some hustIing u goodly number OF the
five hundred wheelmen OF Wheeling
can be induced to Join in the proposed
monster parade. Several have proposed
that the wheelmen get up an inde-
pendent parade for the evening OF the
Fourth, OF the lantern order.
In short, it is safe to say that there
arc not half u dozen people in Wheeling
who are not in favor Of the proposed
Jubilee Columbian independence cele-
bration.
1t is understood that at the meeting
OF the chamber Of commerce called for
this evening for another purpose, this
matter will also be brought up, and
committees appointed and the move
ment gotten into definite shape for
work toward the success of the celebra-
ton, 1t is not too early to begin to
