persons were killed last month in street
car accidents in this city accord ng to
the reports made to the Public service
Commission This is a decrease from
the number killed during Sep -ember. II

Winter Heat and Fresh Air.

New York has carried her troubles

found the law ready to assist her in
obtaining damages, but slow to
make the janitor amenabIe for his

The disclosures have so far been in

has been shown that the apart

temperature of so degrees in the
morning, that, at noon, they grow
comfortable at about 20, and that
at night they range from 20 to so

of New York fat dwelIers, who con

pipes, Washington can afford to be
glad. Two things save her people

Death of Rod Mclean.

Last Monday morning Coroner An son H. Smith was called to Stockton Hill by the sudden death of Rod Me- Lean, which occurred at seven o'clock that morning. Mir. Mclean had been ill but few days and it was thought that he was recovering when he was suddenly taken with relapse and was dead in few minutes. He had been drinking quite heavily and took cold, pneumonia setting in, and by reason of the disease and lack of proper care became too weak to throw off the dis ease and easily succumbed.
 Deceased came to this county more than twenty years ago and took up his residence at Stockton Hill, remaining there until his death. He was broth- CT of the late Mrs. Margaret MacKen- zie. He leaves one brother and sis ter in Stornoway, Scotland. The ie- mains were brought to Kingman and inferred in the little graveyard in the west part of town Tuesday afternoon. Rev. w. G. Blakely read the funeral service at the undertaking room of C.. R. Van Marter and at the grave. Many former friends of deceased followed the remains to the grave.
