returned to his home here from the

DOherty carried it to a successful ac

pinned up and branded in the usual
style and put with the other clothing

Arriving at Hongkong early in April
he delivered the supremacy important
papers to Admiral Dewey on the

He is a modest gentleman and depre-
Gates notoriety and therefore he had
little to say on the subject except to
state the bare facts.

KILLED AT TWIN LAKES.
Infant Daughter of Joseph Kick il
Crushed Under a Train

Infant Daughter of Joseph Kick is
Crushed Under a Train.
About o'clock Wednesday afternoon
the infant daughter of Joseph Kick. a
we'll known resident of Twin Lakes,
was run over and instantly killed by
freight train on the North Western
Railroad. The Kick family residence
is within stones throw Of the crossing
of the track and it is supposed that the
little child crowded upon the track and
was so small that the trainmen failed
to see her. AS soon as the accident
had occurred the train was stopped
and the little, lifeless remains were
gathered up and carried into the
house. The family were crazed with
grief at the death of the child. The
accident was witnessed only by the
men having the train in charge and on
this account only very meager details
can be obtained. The train was way
freight which leaves this city at p. m.
daily. This is said to be the first acct
dent that any of the crew have ever
been connected with and all the mem
bors of the crew are regarded as. very
careful trainmen.
Squire Harrison summoned jury to
view the remains of the child and tele-
graphed the District Attorney the re-
suits of the investigation. An inquest
will be held at Twin Lakes Friday
morning.
The little girl was but little over
year old, but she was a universal favor
lite of all the neighboring families and
the crushing of the little life has
caused a pail of gloom to rest over the
little village. The parents have the
heartfelt sympathy of the entire COM
munity in this great bereavement.
