LOSES HIS LIFE
UNDER THE WHEELS
James Harris Tries to Catch Lase
Train Out of Lead and His Head
Severed by Cruel Cars.

A distressing accident occurred
last night at Lead, wherein James
Harris, an old employe of the Home
stake, lost his life by being run owe,
by the cars ana having his head
nearly severed from his body.
Just how the accident happened
will probably never be known, but
details as near as they can be ascer-
tanned, are to the effect that as the
asst train was leaving LEAH for Dead
wood at 1880 Harris had tried to
BOARD the train catching the for
ward end Of the car next to the en-
CINE and losing his hold fell beneath
the wheels and met an instant and
tragic death. None of the train
crew were aware of the accident and
continued on to Deadwood and were
apprised of it later.
A half hour or SO later, or about
midnight, Adolph Hegelund, who
lives in Washington addition to Lead,
which is this sadie of Northwestern
station, and where deceased also re-
sides. stumbled over a body lying
in the center of the track and fell
He made hasty examination and
discovered that the man had been
run over and killed.
The supposition is that he ran to
catch the train after it had started
from the station to catch ride part
way home. Missing his hold on the
iron railing he fell. Tracks in the
cinders indicated that Harris had
been dragged some distance before
being killed.
Deceased was man about 40
| years of age and leaves a wife. For
number of years he has been
resident of Lead.
ADD HARRIS :. =. =. >. :. 80.
Conductor Berry, who had charge
of the train knew nothing of the ac-
cident till this morning. The train
crew examined the engine but found
no traces of blood. Engineer Guy
Williams says man was seen climb
ing on his engine and was ordered
off little before starting. He thinks
this the same man who was killed.
Coroner Holvey is holding an in
quest this afternoon.
Deceased was a member of the
miners union. He returned from a
trip to Africa about three years ago.

It is related of a certain man who had purchased an electrical machine that, not being able to put it together he telegraphed to the manufacturer angrily: Machine shipped carelessly One hundred and ten volts missing. ' A similar ignorance of electricity was exhibited by passenger on trolley car not long ago.
 The car stopped in the middle of a field, early in the afternoon of blaz- ing hot day. Both motor-man and con- ductor tried in vain to find out what the trouble was. At last they gave 1t up, and the conductor started down the track to the nearest telephone.
 What do you suppose is the trou- ble?" inquired passenger of his seat mate.
