MOVING THE ROADSIDE.

FELL TO HER DEATH
IN ELEVATOR SHAFT

Marie Carmilla, n three-year-oid Por-
tuguese girl, was instantly killed in
the elevator shaft of the Alexander
Young Hotel yesterday morning about
$3.50 o'clock while her mother was de-
llvering bundle of washing to a Gus
toner In the hotel. While the car was
in motion the little girl lost her bal
ance and fell forward through the door
OF the car and struck her head on the
steel comblng OF the shaft at the Sec
ond story. w. G. Sprong, the elevator
boy. with remarkable presence of mind,
Instantly stopped the car, but the
child's head was wedged between the
floor of the car and the steel frame
OF the shaft. Sprong then reversed the
car slowly and the body fell to the
basement. The head was completely
severed from the body and the top OF
the skull cut OFF from the rest.
A Coroner's jury was at once impan-
elled and the testimony OF Mrs. Mary
Camilla, the mother. who lives In Pa
uoa, near the rock crusher; of the ele-
vator boy, of Manager Lake and Of H.
q. Rhodes, who was waiting for the
elevator on the second floor, was taken.
The mother was disposed to blame the
hoy for starting the elevator too quick,
but she was too hysterical to give n
very collected account OF the affair.
The elevator boy denied that he start
ed the car suddenly and said that II the
woman had held on to the child the
accident would not have happened.
Manager Lake testified as to the com
potency of the elevator boy, who is
said to be one of the most careful and
experienced attendants in town. The
jury brought in verdict OF accidental
death.
After the tragedy the grief-stricken
mother was taken to a suite of rooms
on the second floor and Mrs. Lake and
other ladies did their best to comfort
her. 1t Is understood that as the fami-
~ are very poor Mrs. Lake will attend
TO the funeral expenses.
