LOST HIS LIFE BECAUSE
HE WAS A GIANT

OAKLAND, Jan. 4.-Merely because
he forgot that he was a giant, W. A.
Hartrock was killed early this morning
Il the Calf ornia Ice company's plant.
The accident is one of the most
remarkable on record; there are few
men to whom it could have occurred.
Hcartrock, whose height was six feet
and seven inches, stood erect in the
elevator when at 6 30 O'Clock he went
to work hosting ice from the basement
to the top story. 1t was the freight
elevator that was opening, with a
crossbeam somewhat higher than an
OF binary man head.
Not realizing at the moment that ne
was of giant build, Hartrock stood at
full leighton the elevator floor and
looked over the crossbeam to ascertain
where the trouble was when the ma
chinery seemed to work wrong. Hart
rocks head was caught in the grasp of
the huge framework and crushed like
an eggshell.

Should this fad reach California even

plants freeze down each year or are
buried In snow for several months,
while on this coast we can Keep the
