HORRIBLE ACCIDENT.
A Missouri Pacific Brakeman
Killed.

Wednesday evening, while the
east'bound local freight train was
switching, a brakeman by the name
Of Thompson undertook to make q
coupling, but the coupling was not
easily made, and the train came
back so quickly that it struck the
brakeman. He was standing on
the crossing in front of Ca. Weide-
mans residence, and one fost
caught between the rail and one Of
the timbers of the crossing. He
could not release himself, and the
train knocked him down and ran
over him, crushing him under Me
wheels. The engineer waited for
the signal to go ahead, not know.
ing that the brakeman lay on the
tr ok, one of the wheels resting
upon him. One of Mr.. Wcideman's
boys, who witnessed the accident,
notified the engineer Of what had
happened, and the train was pulled
ahead. By this time the brakeman
was dead. The body was taken to
Lewis undertaking rooms and pre-.
paaed for burial The remains
were taken away Ito Ohio, we are
told) for burial.
Deceased leaves a wife and five
or six children, in Iowa. He had
just returned from visiting them,
and this was his first trip after his
|ay.off. The hearts of all good PEG.
Pile will go out in sympathy to the
bereaved family.

A Monster Marine Mammal.

No class of quadrupeds command
so large share OF the peoples IN
terest and curiosity as the unique
quadrupeds of the sea, except, in
deed, it be the sea quadrupeds
which are at the same time amphib.
ious brutes. The fact Of a four
footed animal living in the sea is
curious enough in itself; but when
this four.fsoted beast is footed with
. cloven hoof, a tail like All OK and
horns like a land bovine, and can
dwell as easily and comfortably on
the land as on the sea, there, indeed,
is a wonder seldom-we almost said
never-seen, and we will say it was
never seen before in show.
1t is a wonder which few, com.
paratively speaking, of the amuse-
ment goers ever will or ever can see,
for so difficult of success and SO
costly an undertaking is the cap
ture Of it, SO rare are the mighty
monsters, nov all but extinct, and
SO dangerous and hazardous is the
hunt for them, that in all the history
of the gone before circuses of the
world there has never been seen one
on exhibition. This animal is the
MONSTER BOVALAPUS,
to be seen only with the Lemon
Brothers. Worlds Monster Shows,
which will positively EXHIBIT at
Garrett on Tuesday. Sept %.

FIVE ANARCHISTS SHOT.
They Cried "Long Live Anarchy" and
Protested Innocence.

Barcelona, May 5.-Five of the an
archists convicted of participation in the
bomb outrage on June last at the feast
Of Corpus Christi, were shot yesterday
outside Fort Mont Juch. They shouted
Long live anarchy just before the or
der to fire was given.
Molas and Alcina exclaimed: I'VE are
innocent; this is murder Ascheri was
the only one of the five who did not pro-
test his innocence. After the first vol
ley from the firing party one of the an
archists remained kneeling where he had
been placed. At the second volley this
man fell but was not killed and third
volley was required before life was pro-
nounced extinct.
