The railroad boys who came

The railroad boys who came
in on the fast mail this morning
say that there was a lively time
in Alnes last night. The mar
shall attempted to arrest a hobo,
but the hobo was an expire
fighter and came near beating
the marshal To death. After the
fight the hobo ran and the mar
shall fired six shots at him but
missed him each time. The ca
diets at the college were called
out and they rounded up all the
tramps in the place, and when
ever one started to run half a
dozen shots were fired ut him
and he stopped. The railroad
boys say it was the liveliest
night Ames has seen for many
a day.

hit By FAST MAIL.

Floyd F. Mitchell Killed at Broad
way Crossing.
Evidently Did Not See tho Train
Approaching Rlin.
Body Was Horribly MutiIated
Under Car Wheels.
Number Of People Saw the Acct
dent But We're Unable to
Make Mitchell Hear
Their Warnings.
Nonpareil, Aug. 16.
Floyd F. Mitchell, a carpen-
ter, aged 81 years, met instant
death yesterday under the
wheels of a Northwestern mail
train at the Broadway crossing.
The casualty occurred at 2::30
|p. M, as Mitchell was attempt
in , to cross in advance of the
fast mail train No. Is, south
bound. He stepped from te-
hind a switch train going north
lin front of the mail train, but
4 failed to see it in time to save
himself.
Mitchell's body was struck
|by a cross-beam on the engine
pilot, dragged a distance of
sixty feet and run over by sew
eral sets of car wheels, being
horribly mutilated. Death was
practically instantaneous. The
back of the skull was crushed
i'm like an egg shell, the right
LEG severed at the knee, the
left leg cut off below the hip
land the left arm between the
|elbow and shoulder. The alb
|domen was badly mutilated.
CORONER'S INQUEST TODAY.
Within fifteen minutes after
the accident, the body was re-
moved to Cutters undertaking
establishment, where an inquest
will be held by Coroner Trey
nor at 8 o'clock this morning.
One question which the coron-
er's jury may examine into is
the rate of speed at which the
train was moving at the time
of the fatality. 1t has been a
matter of comment that trains
run dangerously fast over city
crossings, but accidents at the
Broadway crossing have been
comparatively few on account
of the gates and watch tower
there. An old ordinance passed
lin 1868 limits the rate of NOV
ing trains within the city limits
to four miles an hour, but this
has not been regarded or en-
forced of recent years.
The killing was witnessed by
several people, some of whom
tried in vain to warn Mitchell
back. The latter appeared to
have been drinking and was
noticed to be unsteady on his
legs prior to the time he was
struck by the train. He had
not been at his boarding place
since Sunday afternoon and is
supposed to have spent the in
seryening time at Omaha. He
has been unemployed lately,
the last place where he worked
being at the Jewish synagogue
on MINISTER street. Some time
ago he was in the employ of c..
Hafer.
WALKED IN FRONT OF TRAIN.
The switch train was going
north on the west track at the
crossing and as the last car
passed him Mitchell started
across the tracks toward the
east. The fast mail was APP
preaching from the north at a
good rate of speed on the next
track. Mitchell was struck by
the side of the locomotive pilot.
The blow turned his BODY part

saw Mitchell step in front of
the train and shouted to him to
turn back, but he did not APP
parently hear them. S. M.
|Cherniss, a groceryman, was
sitting in front of his store and
witnessed the entire occurrence.
1t seemed to him that the
wheels picked the body up two
or three times before finally de-
posting it on the platform.
w. II. Withrow OF Missouri
Valley, a brother-in-law OF
Mitchell, was in the city last
evening arranging for the dis
position of the remains. 1t is
likely that they will be taken to
Logan for burial, that being the
place where his parents are in
tered.
Mitchell had been working in
Council Bluffs, at the carpenter
trade for two months, and had
been boarding at the Revere
house on west Broadway. He
came here from Missouri VAL
Icy where he lived for fifteen
years. He has two daughters
at Fremont, Neb., and his wife
is also living, but she has been
divorced from him for a num-
Der of years. The daughters
are Mrs. q. t. Hassett and Mrs.

HOW TO GET RICH.
Lesson 2. ohanter 2.

In less than thirty years that part of
city's biggest and best section, with the
exception of a dozen houses, has been
built up. South and east of the
Park was a cypress swamp, and south
and west of it a barren waste. One
could stand where the Georgia Histor-
ical building has since been built and
see the distant gates of Laurel Grove
Cemetery. 1t was as bare and barren
as it was on that fatal October day in
1779 when Count Pulaskis Polish
squadron charged the British lines
about Savannah!
Look at this vast area to-day with
its thousands of houses! Land that was
then very dear at an average of $1,000
an acre is very cheap to-day at an av-
erage of $1,000 for lots ten or twelve
to an acre! All this is true, but it
is so astounding that exclamation
points must be used instead of periods!
The dear reader" may ask What
If this statement is true? What have
1 to do with it; 1 was not here thirty
years ago." But my dear reader"
that is just the reason why you are
interested; if you had been here thirty
years ago, and were half as smart as
many men think they are (Which, by
the way, they are not), you would
now be enjoying that dolce far
niente" referred to in a previous chap
ter, by reason of the profits accruing
from this great growth of the city.
However. you were not here, and had
no chance to make your fortune, and
it is, therefore, more necessary that
you should take advantage of the next
great spreading out of Savannah. by
making an investment while real es-
tate is cheap Thirty-ninth street,
east, is far out, so YOU think, but
CASTOR street was Just as far away
for all purposes, thirty years ago. A
lot on Thirty-ninth street. east, or a
low priced lot anywhere on the line on
which the city is moving. is what is
necessary to cure you of that tired
feeling which sometimes comes over
you. If you can see your way to do
it, that is, if you can see where the
money is coming from to pay for it,
buy a lot or block of lots somewhere.
Such an investment will teach you les
sons in economy and frugality. and
make a happier man of you. Buy a
lot on Thirty-ninth street, east. If you
will, but, anyhow. buy lot!-ad.
(To be continued).
