KILLED AT THE SHELTER
Edward |. McIIenry, Employed at the
Nicholson Smeltcr. Caught in
Whirlng Shaft.

The first fatality at any of the lola
smelters occurred at noon Saturday
when Ed McHcnry, cart man at the
Nicholson smeller, was caught in n
line shaft and instantly killed.
The place where the awful calami-
ty took place is in the engine room in
the main building. The iron shaft,
three or four inches in diameter, ex-
tends through the entire building,
supported about loot and ahalf from
the ground. This shaft runs the
crushers and mixers and IL driven by
a huge 90-hOrse power Westinghouse
engine. A number of meu were eat
ing their dinners I'm the room not
twenty feet away-amoug them j. II.
Bridgewater, Rol Bennett, engineer,
Thornton Foust, Robert Fsutner ana
II. BevingtOn. McHenry pissed
through the building, stepped over
the shaft and went out to look after
his horse. Returning through the
same room, he again stepped over the
shalt. This time, the tails of the
caught on the whirling iron bar and
were wound up with the quickness of
lightning, throwing HIM forward on
his face and doubtless killing him in
stantly. One short cry of "Help ~
was all there was time to give, and
then round and round and round +,
each time with sickening thud, dis
tinctly heard abovethe whirl of ma
chlnery went the pitiful body. The
machinery was stopped as soon az
possible and the torn, dismemb ered
body was tenderly removed by the
men, laid out on "a table and covered
with a sheet. The neck was broken,
an arm torn Off aud the body fearfully
mangled. There is not shadow of u
doubt that the first revolution, which
threw him forward upon his face
killed him instantly, and that what
followed merely mutilated lieless
body.
Edward |. McHenry was well
known in lola, having lived here in
his own home. the house at Dol north
Jefferson street. He leaves n wife
who is Frustrated by the terrible
calamity.
One ofthe saddest features of the
accident is that he had recently been
elected to mem hership in the Gas
City Camp, Modern Woodmen. and
his certificate of insurance for s. 600
has been issued since January II. He
was to have appeared last Wednes
day night, but for some reason failed
to appear, and 80 the certificate is of
no value. lie leaves the home and
some other property to his widow.
Mr.. George Nicholson feels very
badly over the fatality, but of course no
one was to blame. The same careless
step which caused McHsnry's death
has been taken daily by dozens OF
workmen. The entire community is
shocked and grleved at the dreadful
accident and Mrs. McHenry has the
heartfelt sympathy of everybody.

JAMES. A. DAVIS INTERVIEWED.
Kansas Cereal Products Standard the
World 0ver-Manufacturing Pos
sibilities of the State--Zinc
Industry the Worlds
Greatest.

The Kansas City Journal Sunday
contained the following interview
which contains very flattering view
of Kansas and an exceedingly pleas
ant one for Lola.
"rhe future of the railroads in the
West is assured" said James A.
Davis, industrial commissioner of the
Atchison, Topeka d Santa Fee, yes
terday, "and it is because of the won
derful development of the West.
Kansas occupies position in the sis
terhood OF states that is to be envied.
1t has bright future and fewer
mistakes to rectily-in an industrial
line. Its products are sought for all
over the globe, and its flour ranks
first in all the world, not because 1t
was made by any peculiar process,
but because it's wheat produces a
flour that is peculiar to itself.
"Kansas coal il being mined and
put on the market at such price
that it is attracting the attention of
ln6 ulduuluCluItI. IL is bsptCldlly
adapted to manufacture, and is close
enough. Kansas will get the factory,
as the fuel question will not prove a
barrier.
"The gas fields and the zinc in
duslries are bringing great wealth in
to Kansas, in fact more than any
other industry. Kansas produces
one.fourth of the zinc spelter in the
| United States, and much of it is be-
ing exported. The gas fields around
lola produce heat equal to 5000 tons
of coal per day. There is move
ment on foot to establish all kinds of
factories there, and it is only ques-
ton of tine when it will be one of the
greatest manufacturing towns in the
West x

development of the country through

Allen Co. Law and Order Union.

A large audience responded to the
call for mass meeting IN the inter
ests of the "Allen Co. Law and Order
Union" in the opera house Thursday,
the4th. The deep interest manifested ip
the quiet and yet determined faces OF
those present, and the heartiness
with which so many were ready to
subscribe. their names to membership
in the new organization, demonstrates
the tact that the people are ready to
support a county Organization. The
speakers Of the evening were Rev. #.
w. Fem, of Humboldt, and Mr.. r..
II. Bennett of lola. Both these gen
tlemen made excellent addresses, full
of points for the better enforcement of
law. Rev. Mr.. Fem dwelt mostly
upon the present condition and out
look for better enforcement of law
throughout the state. Pointing out
many things indicating that the state
is in better hands than perhaps ever
before to justify the hopes of law abid-
ing citizens. His a. dress was full of
the highest sort of patriotism, and
held the closest attention of the audi
ence. Mr.. Bennett after dwelling
! somewhat on the need of more and
better moral fiber in every good citi-
zen, and defining carefully the mean
ing OF individual rights aud liberty as
1iatipnt frnt,, Iirnuqa cot forth tho
plan of the Alien Co. Law d. Order
Union, and asked all to join In its
active work, or become associate
members. Mr.. Fraser. who is giving
special attention to the work of orga-
nzing local unions over the county,
then presented this roll and asked for
signatures to the lola Branch of the
! Union.
Those in charge ofthe meeting were
very greatly encouraged with the
readiness with which the people came
forward Some sixty or seventy
names we're on the roll at the close of
the meeting, iustifying the hope tina
the Union will be made "A success
This is only beginning. Many more
will yet join the local union when
they have had little more time tC

purpose.
Printed constitutions will be put in
the hands of all the members as soor
as they are out of press.
Personal canvassers will be at work
