SHOCKED TO DEATH
BY ELECTRICITY
Karl coichien Of Bellows Falls The vic
tim--His Brother Was Knocked
Down BY Current While Try
ing to Rescue kan.


Bellows Falls, June 25.--Karl Inay
Colchien, German mechanic, employed
by the Bellows Falls s Saxtons River
electric railroad was electroeuted by o
live wire here yesterday afternoon and
two other employees, George and James
Smith, narrowly escaped the same fats.
The accident was most peculiar
one. Colchien left the car barn and a
few minutes later was discovered W
ing dead across the tracks short dis,
tance away. There was nothing ap.
parentIy to Indicate the cause 81 death
and ali the crowd gathered James Smith
picked up the VAC Of fallen telegraph
wire and started to throw II aside.
He at once received shock that
prostrated him and was unable to re-
lease his grasp from the wire. His
brother, George standing BY seized him
around the waist and By desperate
effort succeeded III dragging him free,
receiving a shock that felled him to
the ground
Examination of Colchien's hand show
ed deep burns and it is supposed that in
trying to remove the fallen wire he re-
eeiyed shock sufficient to clectroeute.
The wire, telegraph one, carries but
a low voltage and 1t is thought an eIec-
trio light wire crossed it some point on
the line.
Colchien was 23 and unmarried, he
was skilled mechanic and with his
parents had been here from Germany
hut short time.

There is little for me to say. The
park and its management speak for

no one could legitimately object to.
Our shows are clean and the Midway

can we do? The Park is thoroughly

BETTER LIVE SIMPLER.

CHICAGO. December 23.-The total
Of deaths from heart disease
In 1907 in Chicago will be 24,497, which
Is an increase of 1916 per cent over
those Of the preceding year. The death
rate for the few final days of the year
had been estimated and included in
the figures furnished yesterday by,
DR.. st. Clair Drake, chief Of the
bureau Of vital statistics.
Chicago physicians said that the rapid
pace Of the present life, or the collateral
effects Of It., such as late hours. over
eating and drinking too much, were
responsible for the alarming increase.
There Is no remedy, they said, unless
the present manner Of living was
changed, A return to the simple life
was advised, shorter hours of work
wherever possible, an avoidance of
late hours. and especially late suppers
and reduction in the amount Of food
and drink consumed. Moderate eX'
erclse was recommended. One physi'
clan advised total abstinence from IL
quor, tobacco and coffee.
