INSTANTLY KILLED.
John Helm Met Death in the Star
Mine This Morning.
CAUSED BY A FALLING OF SLATE
Discovered by n Fellow Miner Shortly
After the Accident With q Thous.
and Pounds of Slate on
His Body.
From Wednesdays Daily.

From Wednesdays Daily.
John Helm, a miner employed in the
Star coal mine, southwest of the city,
ing about 10 o'clock by a fall of slate.
the next room, heard the slate fall,
and upon going into Helms room found
an enormous chunk of slate lying ups
on Helms body. He at once gave the
alarm, the body was removed to the
surface and subsequently, conveyed to
the undertaking. rooms of j. w. Nc
lntire & Co., where an inquest is being
held this afternoon.
According to the story told at the
mine today Mr.. Helm went to work at
the mine this morning as usual aud
shortly before 10 o'clock went into
Herman Cravatzo's room in the mine,
which was next to his, and said that
he desired to borrow an ak for the
purpose rof cutting timbers to the
proper length that he might prop up
the roof of his room, as there was a
piece of slate that should be looked
after. In a few moments Cravatzo
heard a fall and upon going into the
room discovered Mr.. Helms lifeless body
in a sitting posture with his head be-
tween his knees, and chunk of slate
weighing probably 1000. pounds on top
OF him. The slate was removed, the
body brought to the surface and taken
to the undertaking rooms of j. w.
McIntire.
1t is supposed that Mr.. Helm was
standing under the slate when it fell
and that it struck him on top of the
head, forcing him into sitting post
ures with his head between his knees.
A large cut on the head and some
other small bruises on the, face and
other portions of the body were all the
external evidence of the result of the
fall of slate, but it is thought at the
time his neck was. broken and that
death was instantaneous.
Afr. Helm was a widower and had
been boarding at the home of Herman
Errayyatzo for the past few weeks, on
the outskirts of South Ottumwa. He
had been working at the Star mine
since last December and was an hon.
est, industrious, sober man.
