Feet Away from the Scene Of
the Wreck.
Jos. Green anu Mike Inhofer the Victims
of the Awful Accident.
Green's Brains Blown Out and Inhofe1
BRUISED and Mangled.
a terrible accident happened on the
farm. of Louis Bushard in West Newton
Monday evening at. about half past five
O'clock. The threshing rig of Waller,
Green s. ..iarti had been at work there
during the day, and the crew was just
preparing to move down to Russell's.
But while making these preparations.the
boiler exploded and both ends of the
cylinder were blown out with terrific
force. Jos. Green, one Of the owners,
and Mike Inhofer, u young man, were
standing at the cylinder front when the
accident occurred ana it is hardly prob
able that either of them ever knew what
Happened. s<s.es
| Both Of them were blown nearly a
hundred feet from where they were
standing, while another young man was
blown about four rods without being in-
Ijured. After the excitement was over
the crew did not believe that any dam
age had been done except to the engine
but upon further thought it 'lawned on
them that Green and Inhofer were miss
ING: They made search and soon found
the bodies. Green was already dead
but Inhofer drew few hreaths after
they reached him and then expired
Green's head was badly crushed and his
brains protruding. His death was evi
IDENTIFY instantaneous. Inhofer's arm
and jaw were broken and his body was
also bruised. It isn't likely that he was
ever conscious Of what had happened.
These are all the particulars that coulc
be obtained yesterday. No one knows
just what caused the boiler to explode
and no one saw Green and Inhofer blow1
away by the tremendous force of the es
Gaping steam. ILL.,. ~
Green was a middle aged man, with a
family, while Inhofer. was only twenty
years of age. He was the son of Geo
Inhofer, the well-known farmer.
