KILLED BY THE CARS.
oeIweln Stock Shipper Struck and
Killed at Mt. Pleasant.

CelWeln Stock Shipper Struck and
Killed at Mt. Pleasant.
From Mondays Daily.
A sad accident occurred at Mt. Pleas
ant yesterday morning when H. A.
Baker, stock raiser of Oelwein, was
instantly killed by Burlington mail
train No. 7. The accident, from what
can be learned, seems to have been
the result of another case of crossing
railroad tracks without first looking to
see If trains are coming.
Mr.. Baker was in charge of stock
and was on his way to Chicago to sell
the animals, and when the train on
which he was riding stopped at Mt.
Pleasant, about 8 o'clock yesterday
morning, he got off the car and started
across the tracks, probably intending
to get breakfast. At this moment the
fast mail, west bound. came thru Mt.
Pleasant and the unfortunate man
was truck by the engine and killed in
stantly Aside from the bare facts
above given, nothing was known of the
affair in the local offices of the Bur-
| lington today.

BABY SWALLOWED A PIN.
The Mother Extracts it From Baby's
Nose After Three Months.

Centerville, Nov. Three months
ago the two-year-old daughter Of Mr..
and Mrs. e. B. Fuller while lying on
its back accidentally swallowed an
ordinary pin, or at least it was sup
posed that the pin had been swallow
ed A few days ago the baby was un-
easy and kept rubbing the end of its
nose and the mother suspect1ng
something was in its nostrils took a
pair of small pincers and probed up
the little ones nose with the result
that what is thought to be the same
pin that was swallowed was finally
pulled out. Blood followed the pin
and it Is supposed that instead of en-
tering the stomach the pin must have
been coughed into the nasal passage
after it had started down the child g
throat as at the time the little one
vomited and choked.
