FATHER AND
SON KILLED
BY A train
Nimrod Keeton and Six-Year
Old Son Die In
stantly.
ANOTHER BOY IS HURT.
Rock Island Train Crashes Into
Wagon at the Kellogg
Crossing.

Kellogg. Aug. 30.-Nimrod Kee-
ton and his 6-year-old son, Edward,
met a tragic death beneath the
wheels of Rock Island passenger No.
rs here yesterday afternoon. An
other son, Allen, aged years, was
stunned and severely injured and
may not live.
Keeton, who is teamster, is SO
years of age. The son who died
with him is 6. The bodies of, both
were horribly mangled. Keeton was
crushed beyond recognition, every
bone in his body being broken by
the force of the impact. The body
Of the boy was also frightfully
mangled and it was carried some
distance on the cowcatcher of the
engine.
Allen, the youngest, was crazed
by blow on the head and, in spite
of a broken arm and internal injur-
les, commenced running when he
landed on the ground. No one was
near at the time of the accident and
the baby had travelled almost quar-
ter Of mile before he was overtak-
en- and placed under the care of a
physician.
The exact reason for the accident
will never be known. The crossing
where the tragedy took place is
guarded by a warning bell and this
was ringing loudly before the ap-
proach OF the train. That Keeton
thought he had time to cross before
the fast train reached the crossing,
is the belief Of his neighbors. The
wagon was demolished, but the team
of mules drawing it were not even
scratched. >..f. .... .
Keeton is survived by wife and
baby girl.
Train No. rs is a fast passenger
between Omaha and Chicago. 1t
leaves Des Moines at noon and is
due in Kellogg shortly after 1
O'Clock. 1t was behind time and
was running at fast rate of speed
when the accident occurred. The
train stopped as soon as possible,
and the accident was reported to the
officials.
