JOHN L KILLED.

John Milks, of Manchester, a young
man well known in De Smet and vi
cinity, was killed at Volga Monday
night, November 4th, by being caught
under the drivers of a locomotive.
John was making his second "stu.
cent" trip before being employed as
a regular fireman. Without saying
anything to the engineer or fireman
John went under to clean the ash pan.
Another train was switching in the
yards and backed in onto the track
where the engine and train stood to
which John belonged. The switch
ing train hunted into the other train
moving it about ten feet. When the
engineer got the signal to move be
inquired of the fireman where John
was. The fireman replied that he
did not know. Before moving the
engineer and fireman got down and
looked for him finding him with both
legs and one arm cut of. He was
taken to Brooklngs but died soon after
reaching hat city.
How the unfortunate young man
to be over the rail is something no.
body will ever know. The large en-
gines are high enough to pass over
a man if he remains between the
rails. 1t it supposed that he had
finished cleaning the ash pan
or heard the other train bunt into the
ears attached to his engine, and at.
tempted to get out.
This is the second death by acct
dent in the James Milks family in
less than a year and a half. They
have the heartfels sympathy of all.

product for which Pittsburg Is the mae
ural source Of supply can be shipped
to Fairmont both by rail and water at
very low rates.
Fairmont is the natural center for

population Of 100000 people The pop.
ulation Is very rapidly increasing oT.
ing to the industrial development Of
manufacturers and coal operations
and Fairmont Is more and more be-
coming the natural business center
because Of the increased extension Of
street railways and the projection Of
new lines OF railroad. In order that
Fairmont might become great dis.
trlbutiye center, and in order to take
care Of the enormo1s amount Of
freight already produced in Fairmont
and vicinity, the government has ex-
pended two millions of dollars in the
construction Of a system Of locks and
dams to Pittsburg, giving foot pool
all the year. The B. G o. R. R. Com.
pany was compelled TO relocate q
bridge below Fairmont which was the
last obstruction to navigation and
build new bridge at cost of S4OO,-

The B. & o. R. R. Company is con-
structlng the Palatine branch at a
cost of 100000. The railroad COM
pany now handles about 125,OOO cars
per month in the local yards.
Fairmont being located well over
the mountains on the threshold Of the

open to the promoter of various
branches Of wholesale traffic. Every
thing the people consume, eat, drink,
and wear, every implement Of utility
which is used over the territory for
which Fairmont is the natural dis
trlbutlve center, should be and viii be
shipped from our city.
