Estimable Young Man Lost His Life
at Bigelow's Shop.
Frederick Hood, employed at the
Bigelow boiler works, was fatally
crushed yesterday by the fall of a
large brewery tank under which he was
at work. He died soon after being re-
moved to the New Haven hospital.
When the heavy tank was lifted from
Hoods mangled form his fellow work
men weakened at the sight, and 11S of
them put on their street clothes and
without word to the management left
the shop. At the office of the concern
yesterday afternoon II was said that
although the men were disheartened by
the accident, they would probably re-
turn to work soon. Hood was a young
man and unmarried. He lived with his
father and mother at 107 Mill River
street. He was twenty two years of age
and the Oldest of ten children, all of
whom are living at the house on Mill
River street.
The young man was very popular
among the workmen in the BigeloW
shops and was learning the boilermak-
er's trade. His family are broken up
over the sad death.
So far the funeral arrangements have
not been made, but the body was re-
moved from the hospital yesterday at
ternoon.

Alaska" Lincoln. j. ., Carriers new
melodrama that will be presented at
the Grand Opera House next Monday,
Tuesday and Wednesday nights, has d
plot, natural and effective. Some of
the most beautiful and picturesque
scenery is used In this production,
showing the trading posts in the North
Land and the crater Of an old volcano
that Is more than rich with gold. The
siwash Indians have adopted this crat-
err to worship their fire god, from the
fact that the volcano that is slumbering
beneath sends forth tongues of flames
reaching far into the sky and when
these eruptions take place the earth
for miles around trembles and rocks
as twig in the breeze. Rocks weigh
ing tons upon tons are misplaced and
sent crushing down to the bottom Of
the volcano with tremendous force.
Such are the scenic effects in Alaska, -
| and the tone of the play is such that
will appeal to every one. There will be

Those days gone-but beauty still is here
States fall, arts fade, but nature doth not die,
Nor yet forget how Venice dear,
