BOY KILLED
BY FIELD
ROLLER
At the Mute School Thursday Even
ing the Presence of Teachers and
Other Boys-His Death Was In
stantaneOus.

Nine-year-old Conrad Hagen was
run over and killed by getting under
a heavy field roller at the deaf mute
school. The accident occurred at 5
O'Clock. just as the driver started
down the grade from the school
building on the hill side. six miles
southeast OF the city, and Il happened
In this way: Two other boys were
riding on the seat of the roller with
the driver, and when it started up
young Conrad ran out to get on the
roller The machine started up, he
tried to climb up behind and in some
way was carried over the roller and
down In front of It, and before Mr..
Kemano, the driver. could stop the
team. as IL was on the down grad e,
1t had passed clear over the little
fellow, and crushed the last spark of
life out of him. His neck was brok-
en- as he fell forward on his face
and his body was doubled right un-
der the roller, Weighing about a
ton.
The driver was not to blame. as
he could not see him get on. and Il
all happened so quickly the child
was dead before anyone seemed to
know that an accident had happened
The grade down the hill back of the
school is quite steep. and the roller
was one of the common variety
without a brake of any kind. Il was
drawn by two horses, and many OF
the children, and two supervisors
and Superintendent Tillinghast we're
all out TO see the machine start. The
little fellow has always been very
venturesome. active lad. and several
times has met with accidents due TO
his enterprislng spirit. Two years
ago he fell from a balcony two
stories high. and escaped with slight
bruises. He has two sisters in the
school, and his parents are Mr.. and
Mrs. c. y. Hagen. at Candy. The
body has been prepared by an under
taker and taken by Mr.. Tillinghast
10 the afflicted parents on the after
| noon train. II Is but just TO say that
the accident was entirely free from
any element OF carelessneas on the
part of any employe. and Is the first
fatal accident that has ever hap
pened at the school. The boy was
we'll liked by all. aud Q very bright
scholar.
