Bro. Mattson, Of the WARREN

Bro. Mattson, Of the WARREN
SHEAF had the misfortune to lose his
entire plant by fire last Thursday
night through the dropping and ex-
ploding Of a large Rochester kero-
sene lamp. The lamp was hanging
to the ceiling at the time and when
it exploded the burning oil, was
scattered all over the room, the en-
ployes having time to get out Of the
building. Mr.. Mattson's loss is
about $5, 900. with very little insur-
ance. He has purchased a new plant
and the SHEAF will be better than
ever in spite Of the editors

BLOODY BATTLE ON A TRAIN.
Rock Island Smoking Car the Scene
of an Awful Tragedy.


There arrived in Ell Paso this morn
ing on passenger train No. l., of the
Rock Island. a smoking car that was
the scene of a terrible tragedy while
coming down the road day before yes
terday, near Kansas City, says the
News.
The Information received from pas
sengers on the train. who we're on at
the time of the tragedy, is to the eff
feet that there was a bloody battle
between members of a construction
gang that had boarded the train at a
camp to go iHto q town.
1t seems that several members of
the gang attacked one man, who was
armed with a razor. He made it
warm for his assailants, pitching into
them with the razor until three or
four of them were bleeding like stuck
hogs. He killed one, cutting his
throat from ear to ear.
But they were too much for the one
man, and when they did get him go
ing. he didn't last long. They got him
down and stamped and kicked him un-
til life was extinct and his body un-
recognizable.
