Farm Buildings Burned.

Milwaukee, Wis, Aug. 81, 1906
The barns and granaries of Henry
Wilkie, farmer residing half a mile
west of the Sercomb road, between the
Fond du Lac and Hopkins roads, were
destroyed by fire last night, entailing a
loss of $4,000, not covered by insurance
The fire started few minutes after
O'Clock and burned for more than an
hour. Stacks of straw and hay were
also burned, making an illumination that
lighted the skies for miles and attracted
a large crowd from the city. The fire
was the result of carelessness. A party
of friends was visiting at the farm
house, when someone threw a lighted
cigar stump on the ground, which was
covered with straw. The blaze was not
discovered until it had a firm hold on the
barn building, when, famed by a brisk
breeze, it spread rapidly. All of the
livestock and some Of the farm machin-
cry was saved. One Of the incidents of
the fire was the partial burning of a big
apple tree, heavily laden with fruit, that
stood near one of the barns. When the
fire died out somewhat the crowd stood
around feasting on baked apples.

Fatally CRUSHED

Milwaukee, Wis, Aug. 81, 1885,
An unknown man, aged about As
years, called at the Farwell avenue
barns of the street railway company at
10 o'clock this morning, looking for work,
but instead of securing employment he
met his death. The stranger inquired
of Foreman T. e. Hammer where he
could find the carpenter boss, and was
told He fingered about the barns for
some time and no further attention was
paid to him. The foreman and nine
men were engaged in pushing car No.
235 out of the barn in order to switch
it over to the blacksmith shop.
Their first attempt failed, as the tracks
were heavy with sand. They let the car
run back into the barn and then made a
second attempt. When they had pushed
it to within about three feet from one
of the doors the unknown man was seen
to make an effort to get into the barn
before the car should reach the door and
blockade the passageWay. He was not
quick enough, however, am1 was caught
by the car just as be was abreast of the
door casing.
The unfortunate man was almost in
stantly killed. The brass hand rails at
the end of the car and on the vestibule
platform, used by passengers when board
ing or alighting, extended out am inch or
two from the body Of the car and one
of them cut the mans throat amid crushed
tire left side of his chest. He also re-
ceived a scalp wound.

Death of William Alexa naer.

Milwaukee, Wis, Aug 81, 1886
William Alexander, until recently en-
pleyed as assistant blacksmith foreman
at the West Milwaukee carshops, died
very suddenly at his home, 1920 Mt.
Vernon avenue yesterday morning. He
had been enjoying good health and his
death was entirely unexpected. DR..
Kempster this morning notified the cor
oner that post-mortem' had been held
by Drs McGovern and O'Mal1ey yester-
day afternoon, but inasmMc}f as the
undertaken had preceded the physicians
and the body had been embalMed, they
could learn very little regarding the
cause of death.
Alexander was quite we]l-knOWn in
Merrill park and his sudden death
caused very much surprise and regret.
1t is known that he had BEEN Respondent
the past few days owing to a change
which was to have occurred i'm his posi-
ton this morning, and he had on Satur-
day made an effort to- have the matter
righted but without avail. On Saturday
night he came home in low spirits and
lay down on the lounge, where he was
found dead yesterday morning by his
