LOGGER'S TERRIBLE DEATH
Caught by Moving Train and Mangled
by the Wheels.


Eugene Coziel, skid roadman employ
ed at Mosher & McDonalds logging camp
near Mosher. Snohomish county, met a
horrible death yesterday morning at 6:l0
o'clock by having his head mashed to
pieces under the wheels of a heavy log
ging truck. Before the train came 20 a
standstin the unfortunate mans body had
been rolled into a sort of ball and there
was hardly bone left in his body that
was not broken.
The train which starts out rom the
logging camp in the morning over the
logging railroad with the seventy odd
men that work for the firm of Aosher &
Mcdonald usually caves about 6:10 o'clock
in the morning and backs down 10 the
station for them. According 10 the report
received in this city, the men were on the
platform at the station yesterday morn
ing. as usual waiting to go TO work. The
train came backing down toward the sta
tion.
Coziel had disobeyed orders and gotten
on the back car or logging truck With
in sight of al the men he stepped off the
car, and in some manner hard TO explain
his heel caught on the brake beam. He
was thrown down on the track, and in a
moment the wheels OF the car had passed.
squarely over his head. breaking it like
an egg shell. The motion of the wheel
carried the body along managing II and
wrapping it up like ball.
As soon as possible the train was stopped
and the body was placed in a box and
brought TO this city. c. d. Mathsny fore
man of the Mosher & Mcdonald logging
camp. telegraphed TO the SnohoElish au-
thorities last night for instructions.
The dead man was about 80 years old. a
Belgian, and so far as is known had no
relatives in this country. He worked at
one time for Grin Brann at Mount Yer
non. He had been working for Mosher &
Mcdonald for about two and one-half
months.

for public perusal:
How rich the green, how clear the light;
The face ofnature washed with showers
So clean, and beautiful, and bright;
How lovely now her shady bowers.
The laughing brook has caught the rain,
And sings along its winding way;
The pine trees breathe a minor strain;
Grand sen inels Of op'ning day.
Bold, massive rocks, so clean and bare,
Stand where they stood in ages past;
Within their grasp hold treasures rare
That will for generations last.
The air is balmy, fresh, and sweet;
White heecy clouds hang on the sky
Like summer robes, made clean and neat
And hung by Angels hands to dry.
The May Queen dofs her evening dress
The world brings out in grand display
Her richest robes Of loneliness;
A morning dress for June today.

cumstances the aw fl character Of which
are family outlined in the following
which we fortunately find in an ex
change OF recent date: Father, dear
father, come home with me now, for
ma has got carpets to beat; she's got all
the furniture out in the yard, from
front porch clear down to The street.
The stove must come down and be put
in the shed, and the yard must be clean
house and the devils to pay, and the
front windows need some new glass.
Father, dear father, come home with me
now and bring some bologna and cheese.
1t must be u o'clock and there's moth.
ing to eat-Im so hungry I'm weak in
the knees. All the dinner well have
will be cold scraps and such; and you'll
have to eat standing up, too, for the
tables and chairs are all out in the yard
oh, how | wish spring house cleaning
was through! Father, dear father, come
home with me now, for ma Is as mad az
a Turk; she says you're II lazy Old thing
and she proposes TO put you to work.
There is painting to do and paper to
hang, and windows and casing to scrub
for it's housekeeping time and you've
got to come home and revel in suds and
cold grub.
