Last Saturday afternoon, about
five o'clock, while at work in the
iron mine on the north side of
Pilot Knob, Alvin Zude, nineteen
years of age, was crushed under a
mass of falling dirt and rock, re-
ceiving injuries from which he
died in ten minutes. Zude was
digging ore from under bluff,
when, without O word of warning,

practically MASKING him to pieces.
Fellow laborers rushed to his as

hanging over him, but he delayed
obeying the instructions. The de-
ceased was the son of Mr.. and Mrs.
Herman Zude, of Pilot Knob, and
was very worthy young man.
The parents have much sympathy
in their sorrow. The funeral oc-
