Stranger Killed on Santa Fs.

A. ID. Atzen, stranger IN these
parts, receivsd injuries by falling
off passenger tram No. = last Sat
| urdsy night, which resulted IN his
death forty eight hours later. All
that is known concerning the ac.
cIdent was learned from two
knights OF the road who were with
the deceased all day last Sat
urday in Trinidad, and who
started Tor La Junta with him.
Their names are Jesse Wilkie and
Matthew Nugent
The three men met in Trinidad
Saturday, and when they lett that
city for La nnta, on the blind
baggage OF No. =. were consider.
ably under the influence OF liquor
esse Wilkie was the only one
who succeeded in reaching this
city on No. ,. Immediately upon
his arrival he told Night Marshal
Frost that he had been held up by
stranger on the platform OF one
OF the cars on No. 4, and robbed
OF every thing he had. He SAID
that the stranger had either Jump
ed of the train or fallen of, and
that he would have papers and
money in his possession belonging
to him. Wilkie was locked up in
the city jail, pending an investi-
CATION, but later developments
proved that he had told the truth
concerning the matter.
The crew OF freight train, fol-
lowing train No. 4, found Atzen
lying alongside the track, about
five miles south Of La Junta, and
brought him to town. He was in
an unconscious condition, and did
not recover consciousness before
his death, which took place at the
county poor farm about 4 c'clsck
last Tuesday morning. His death
was caused by blood ciot on the
brain, due to conclusion, having
probably struck on his head when
he jumped or fell of the train.
He had papers in his possession
belonging to Wilkie. and a mem
orandum book which contained
the address OF brother living in
Dennison, Iowa, who has been ap-
prised OF the death of his relative.
Coroner Green impsnn-lled a
jury and held an inquest Tuesday
afternoon, Matthew Nugent and
Jesse Wilkie being the principal
witnesses. Nugent stated that
they had met the deceased in
Trinidad last Saturday and had
been drinking all day. The de.

lesson which only a calamity OF
tins kind Can teach.
Science has shown that typhoid
fever IS a NTH disease, and IN the
winter season at least. when no
flies are about to assist IN spread

only when the water supply is
contaminated. But in a thickly
settled community the avoidance
OF contamination OF the sources Of
the water supply is difficult. and it
is Therefore necessary to purify
the water before distributing il to
the houses of the people.
The experience OF European
cities. where typhoid fever used to

OF other diseases which are spread
in the same way. can be purified
by filtration. A filtration plant is
expensive. but it costs less than
