\ fine Turkey gobbler belonging
to Mrs. Arnold Livers, living few
miles above here on a farm, has built
himself a nest and Is setting on some
gourd eggs which he procured him
self by going to the vines, tearing
them of and carrying them to the

he has the right kind of material to
manufacture young turkeys and is as
busy as a setting hen. Mr.. Liyer's
father, Mr.. Hous Piland, and a num-

strange sight which is attracting
great attention in that community.
Several days ago Mr.. Livers in a
spirit of fun attempted to place some
kittens in the nest but was frightened

interfered with. Several rare in

SHOCKED TO DEATH IN BATH
POllun Fell Into Water In Garage Gel
Ter That Was Charged With
Electricity.
by Associated Press.)

New York, Sept. 26.-Shouting,
writhing, suffering agony, unable to
rise from four inches of water, Pierre
Pollum was slowly shocked to death
by electricity in a Williamsburg cell
lar yesterday.
Pollup, twenty-four years old, first
went to work as a machinist in Cbas.
Reilly's garage, No. sos Graham
avenue, yesterday morning. Toward
evening Pollun went to the cellar to
get piece of steel shafting. I'm
mediately REILLY and his employees,
John Foley and another heard Pol
lun's cries, unintelligible save that
they told he was in mortal danger.
The three, Foley leading, ran down
the cellar stairs, which are wooden.
They saw Pollun, his face distorted,
fighting desperately to rise from the
shallow water, squirming like one Of
the damned whom Dore drew.
As Foley jumped from the last
step in the water, Foley shrleked
The waters charged.
He had been severely shocked by
electricity, but he survived, this gives
the best idea of what Pollun must
have suffered, as he swallowed in
that hideous electric bath. Foley
regained the steps, ran up them and
got a pair of rubber gloves. He and
the others got thick plank, carried
it down and extended it from the last
step into the water.
Polluns cries were growing faint,
his struggles weak. The three men
stepped cautiously along the plank,
were badly shocked as they lifted
Pollun, but they did raise him and
carried him upstairs. He was limp
and unconscious then and soon died.
An electric cable runs into the
garage cellar, from it the batteries Of
the electric motor cars are charged.
Investigation proved that the insula-
ton on part of the cable had been
scraped off-how, nobody knows.
So the current escaped into the water
that had leaked in in and, as every
body knows water is a good conduc-
TOT.
Polluns home was at No. Il
