Killed by a Live Wire.

A live wire across the road in Con-
creto killed a team of good horses for
j. o. Adams, a teamster last evening
about dark. 1t seems that telephone
wire broken down by the storm fell
across the trolly wire OF the electric
railway and was charged. The tele-
phone wire lay across the wagon road.
Adams was driving a two horse team,
and the front team became entangled
in the wire and was killed. The second
team was knocked down but not Sc
riously hurt. The team was a very
good one and is quite a loss to Mr..
AdamS-Iola Register.

vances were principally on the part of
the railroad companies, but there has
been a general tendency to advance
wages. The Northern Pacific. railroad

Southern Pacific 21z to cents an hour;
the. Rock Island, 80 cents a day; the
Southern Railway, III to cents an
hour; the Hartman lines, 80 cents an

porous one all the way through, with

A Rock Island detective was wired
concerning the missing coal by the

posing to have scented the trouble, got
a pass and left for Chicago.
The price, as related to this paper
by one who knows, which was re-
ceived by the conductor, was Sc. and
when the ranchman was made to pay
$40 for the coal. he "coughed up" the
evidence against Pitsenberger, of
whom, he claims. he bought the coal.
The coal was dumped on the siding
at Madison by order of the conductor
who was in charge of a through
freight. The station agent wanted
coal, but was ordered to get out" and
leave that coal alone. He got huffy
about it and wired information. The
special agent dug UP the evidence
against the conductor, but before he
could close in on his man, he was
gone.
