Killed BY Falling Tree.

Saturday about the noon hour, John
Kalcic, aged about % years, and German
by birth, met instant death by being
crushed by falling tree in the lumber
woods near Porkey. He was employed
as "swamper"- clearing out roads for
the teams at A. l.. Weller's camp, and
having the only watch in the crew, had
gone to inform the log cutters that it was
noon, or dinner time. A tree had fallen
partly to the ground and lodged on an
other, and when the unfortunate victim
reached the men he expressed desire to
see it fall, and asked for an ak with which
to cut the tree down. The other work.
men warned him of the danger of such
an undertaking, but he thought he could
get out of the way and so tackled the job.
When the trees began to fall Kslcic started
to run from under them but was caught
one of the trees striking him on the head
crushing him horribly and scattering his
brains on the ground. Death was instan
taneous. The body was prepared for
burial and on Sunday the funeral was
held, Rev. Mr.. Tanner, of the Free
Methodist church, conducting the SER
vices, with interment in the Wing Hill
cemetery. Kalcic was known as an in
dustrious and steady going fellow, who
was we'll liked by his fellow laborers.
He had on deposit in the Sheffield Ma
tional bank 1925 which he had sayed from
his earnings in the past few months.
His parents reside in Brooklyn, N. Y.
and he is also survived by three sisters.

AS was noted in these columns last week,
Mr.. Emick was taken to the hospital on
Monday previous to his death, where his
right leg was amputsted between the
knee and hip, the operation being made
necessary by an injury which he sus-
tained in his boyhood. For time after
the operation his condition seemed ia
vorable and hopes were entertained of his
complete recovery, but his enfeebled con-
stitution could not Withstand the shock
and his death was caused by pyHmia at
