Gyiman was employed in the Clinton

The tracks had been screwed up while
repairs were being made, and the man
was engaged in "tamping' between the
ties. The section men let down the
track suddenly, and Gyiman's foot was
caught. AT the same time a string of
box cars was seen approaching. I'm
able to help himself. the unfortunate
man cried for assistance, and the Sec

seized him and endeavored to extri-
cate him from his perilous position. He
was unable to get Gyiman free. how

held by the weight of the track. There
was not an instant to lose If the mans
life was to be saved, as the approach
ing cars were by this time close by,

the unfortunate man by the neck, the
foreman forced him to the ground by
sheer strength, swapping the bones of
his leg below the knee Pulling his
body outside of the tracks, and hold
ing him SO that his other leg would not
be injured. the foreman held Gyiman
down while the cars ran over his left
leg, which lay across the rails.
Manned and bleeding, the man was
taken to a local hospital, where the sur
geons amputated his crushed limb at
once. The suit for damages has just

SUPERVISOR SUICIDES
After Grand Jury Reported Thirty-two
Indictments, Matt Preister, of Lyon
County, Cuts His Throat-Prominent
and Popular Officer.

Special to Times Republican.
Rock Rapids, Dec. 12.-Shortly after
declaring that he was ready for an in
vestigation and that he could show
where every dollar he handled went,
Matt Preister, for many years super
visor or Lyon county, killed himself.
Preister was arrested several days ago,
as result of the grand jury's investi-
cations, and the report of the jury was
filed in court yesterday. Thirty-'two
indictments were returned against
Preister. charging him with classifying
checks, forgery and larceny of the pub
lie road fund in the sum Of $4,000.
Bonds were furnished on each count
for Preister's appearance in court, and
when seen by your correspondent he
declared that he was glad that they
| were going to investigate and that he
could account for every dollar spent
Later Preister went to his home and
went to the barn to bring in some Goa
for his wife. He climbed into the hay

ing thru the hay and floor on to the

His wife, becoming alarmed at his
long absence, went to the barn, and,
noticing the blood, called some neigh
bors to her assistance. When they
reached the loft, the body was lying on
its back and the knife was still tightly
held in the right hand.
Mr. Preister had been county super
visor for years and until recently was
considered the most honorable and
painstaking member on the board. The
grand jury indicted him yesterday on
thirty 1.-TWO counts and it is thought
he feared the result of the investigation
which must have followed.
1t is charged that Preister paid for
|eounty work in cash or check, and then
raised the receipts from 81 or IS to $24,
$25 and even as high as $50. 1t is de-
clared that other receipts were found
that were purported to have been given
by persons who never had done any
work. Preister was placed under ar
rest several days ago and gave bonds.
His death will put a stop to the pro-
ceedings, as it was more than likely he
would have been found over to the next
term Of the district court.

farmer and importer and breeder of
Percheron horses. of near here, charg-
ed with petit larceny. Mr.. Lowery's
wealth and social standing has made
the criminal action brought against
him the subject of wide comment.
The information charging the crime
of petit larceny against Mr.. Lowery.
was filed in Justice Larson's court by
the officers of the Nevada Mutual Tel
ephone Company and the specific
charge was the taking of seven second
hand telephone poles from pile that
the company had in this city.
For some time the company have
missed poles and We're never able to
locate them, altho they have often mo-
ticed what they presumed to be their
property on different premises of the
county. The matter became serious
one and the company, at meeting of
its directors decided to make an effort
to locate the parties engaged in such
work and make an example of them
one dark night last week a man who
is retained by a local coal firm as night
watch. saw rig drive up to this pile
of poles, on the Short Line right of
way and load up number of the poles
and drive away with them. He told
Manager Boardman of the occurance
and he at once set out to locate the
property. A day or so later he found
what he presumed to be the missing
poles on a wagon in Mr. Lowery's yard.
After consulting with the board of
directors warrant was sworn out and
served upon Mr.. Lowery Saturday eve
ming. He admitted having taken the
poles, but denied any intent of steal
ing them, giving as an excuse that he
was unable to find Mr. Boardman to
purchase. the poles and had loaded
them up intending to settle for them
afterwards.
He retained counsel and will fight the
case. A continuance has been secur-
ed and the case will come up Thursday.
A strenuous effort is being made to
get the directors of the company to
withdraw the prosecution. but so far
a majority of them remain firm and
insist that the case must be tried on
its merits.
Past occurances are being recalled
and the matter is the subject of gem
eral talk and comment all over the
county. The defendant is wealthy
land owner and has made several trips
to France where he purchases and i'm
ports Percheron stations. He has re-.

joined in the search, which was kept
up by many much of the night. About
s'clock Wednesday morning the boy
came walking into his home. The
searchers had been close to him many
times during the night but the young

thinking his friends were tramps and
would do him harm. So In the weeds
