APPARENTLY IN GOOD HEALTH

Death suddenly summond Richard

old and in apparently good health.
AS was his custom he left home Sum
day morning and walked to the
church, entered and took his seat in
pew.
Prof. G. H. Grebening started to
preach the usual Sabbath sermon.
Suddenly Mr.. Jones was seen to fall
back in the pew. Friends believed
that he had suddenly taken sick or
perhaps tainted. They carried him to
the rear of the edifce. The preacher
did not know the man was dead and
continued his sermon. Physicians
were called and the police department
summoned. The body was removed to
the home of Mrs. John Dixon, a
daughter.

number of years past he has lived a
retired life. He was man of the

Heinrich Ciessermann is Killed
by a Train at Broad Street
Crossing Saturday.
BODY IS HURLED IS FEET.
Unfortunate Man Stepped Directly in
Front of the Oncoming Train and
Paid no Attention to the
Warning Whistle.

The Northwestern road claimed its
third victim within three days Satur-
day afternoon when;Heinrich Giesser-
mann, an aged German resident of
the city, was run down and instantly
killed at the Broad street crossing of
the road.
The accident happened at about
O'Clock in the afternoon. The train,
which was due in Kenosha at 2:36,
was late and was running at high
rate of speed when the old man was
struck and the force of the blow
hurled him fully IS feet. He was dead
when picked up. There we're no wit
nesses to the accident except the en-
gineer and fireman of the trains
AT the inquest the engineer of the
train testified that he first noticed the
man approaching the tracks from the
east just as he was in the act of whist
ling for the station and that he had
no idea but that he would heed the
warningof the whistle. Giessermann,
who is said to have been somewhat
deaf, paid no attention to the ap-
preaching train, however, and con-
tinued on his way, stepping directly
in front of the oncon1ing train. The
engineer whist1ed again and applied
the emergency brakes but the speed
of the train was only slightly checked
before it struck the unfortunate man.
The train was stopped as soon as pos
sib1e and the body was taken on board
and brought to the depot. Coroner
Robinson was Immediately notified
and the body was removed to the Han
sen morgue, where the inquest was
held at 10 O'Clock Sunday morning.
The coroner's jury, which consisted
of Joseph G. Rhode, Frank Hansman,
Horace Chaffee, VIM. Boyle, M. G.
O'Donne11 and John w. Lewis, after
investigating the circumstances OF
the case rendered verdict of acci.
dental death without censuring the
railroad company.
The deceased was 70 years of age
and is survived by a wife and two
daughters. He had been a resident Of
the city for number of years ant
had many friends who will be shocked
to hear of his untime1y end. After
the inquest the remains of Mr.. Giess-
erman were removed to the residence
of his daughter, Mrs. Kraus, 40e
York street, where the funeral ser.
vices were held on Tuesday after
noon at 2 O'Clock.
