ger Train. Brother Jumped From
Wagon and Was Saved.
Dewey, the Contemporaries son
of Mr.. and Mrs. J. M. Fletcher, who
live a short distance north of Bron-
wood, was the victim of a sudden and
horrible death Wednesday afternoon
when he was killed by the Central
passenger train from Montgomery
that left Dawson at 12:45 O'Clock for
Macon.
A short while before the train was
due to pass the Fletcher farm Mr..
Fletcher had his two sons, Cleon
aged II years, and Dewey, aged IA,
to hitch up a two-mule wagon to
haul in some cotton from a field
which was on the other side of the
railroad track. They went by pri-
vate road through the farm and when
they reached the track the rapidly
approaching train was obscured from
their view by small skirt of woods.
Cleon, the oldest of the boys, jump
ed out of the wagon and escaped
injury, but Dewey, who was driving,
held to the reins. The train hit the
wagon and smashed it into splinters
and the boy was dragged up the track
distance of fifty yards or more. A
piece of timber was driven through
his neck, and his skull was Acrushed
by being beat against the crossties.
The train was in charge of Con-
ductor Tom Hall, and Engineer Ed
Raw was at the throttle, and they
rendered all possible aid before pro-
ceeding on the trip to Macon.
The interment of Dewey Fletcher
occurred in the cemetery at Bron-
wood, and was largely attended.
Mr.. Fletcher and family are deep
ly sympathized with in their bereave-
ment.

KANSAS CITY TOMORROW.

Joe Cantillon's Minneapolis aggre-
cation will play again this afternoon
and Charlie Carr's Kansas City team
will be here tomorrow for a three
game series and will play double
header on one of their dates on
account of postponement during
their last visit here. The fans hope
to see the Colonies trim the Tebeau
crowd, as many blame the willy
Blues owner for the poor schedule
handed to Louisville and one or two
Of the other strong teams. The
poor showing of the club since its
arrival home has been principally
through lack of pitching material,
Laudermilk and Powell being over
worked and the rest of the staff not
calling for much, although Smith has
shown flashes of form at different
times. The hitting and fielding of
the team is top notch, and outside
of the mound artists Louisville pos
sesses the best club in the associa-
tion, and with fair corps of pitch
ers would have been out in front in
the pennant race.
