shuttle off this mortal coil py cutting
his throat with pocket knife He
became weak kneed when he had
hacked away for time and was taken
into custody by Chief of Police Dornan.
His attempt at his own life was made
in front of the Evans, as he probably
thought to make it little more spec
tacular. Cries from the lady guests
and others brought the officer immed-
lately to the scene. Liquor and sick
ness and his discharge from the Ma.
tional Sanitarium are supposed to have
been the cause for his act.

ENGINEERS BLAMED.
Crawford Wreck Last Week Caused By
Engineers.

The investigation conducted by rail.
road officials of the Burlington wreck
near Crawford last week. in which the
fireman of the passenger train and
three hoboes were killed, resulted in
the discharge of the engineers on the
two Mallett engines, who are declared
to have been running without orders,
at the time Of the collision. It appears
that according to the orders, the two
light Mallett engines, which had been
helping an east bound freight train up
the Crawford hill, had orders to meet
the passenger at Belmont, but owing to
the fact that the latter was running
thirty minutes late, the engineers flgur-
ed they could make Rutland, half way
between Crawford and Belmont, before
the passenger reached thot point. The
result of their miscalculation was the
death Of four persons.

Been Living For Last Year and
Half at Belle Fourche.

Calvin P. Taylor, we'll known old
resident of Hot Springs, died last Sat
urday at the home of his daughter, Mrs.
Ada Leach, in this city.
Mr.. Taylor was born in Indiana
sixty-six years ago. AT the beginning
of the Civil War he was unable to en-.
list but during the year ga ran away
from home and enlisted, serving until
the close. In '66 he was married to
Miss Samantha Zener and moved to
Nebraska. From there they moved to
Hot Springs where they have since re-
sided until about year and half ago
when they moved to Belle Fourche
Shortly before the 4th of July, Mr.
and Mrs. Taylor came down for visit
with their children here and have been
stopping at the home of their daughter.
For the past few weeks Mr.. Taylor has
been suffering from an old ailment
contracted during the war and up until
within couple of days previous to his
death it was thought that he would
recover.
Besides his wife, five children survive
him, namely: Mrs. Ada Leach, of Hot
Springs, Mrs. Susie LsFleiohe, of Belle
Fourche, jeff Taylor, Hot Springs,
Emery Taylor, Seattle, Washington
and Floyd Taylor, Belle Fourche. All
we're here at the time of his death and
