BRAKEMAN KILLED.
Falls Between Cars at North McGreg.
or While Train is i'm Notion
Body is Crushed.

McGregor, Iowa, Jan. 15.-Theo-
dore Gross, aged "a, freight brake
man on the Prairie du Chen division
of the c.. NJ. & st. p, was instantly
killed at North McGregor shortly af-
ter midnight Sunday night. The acct
dent happened in a peculiar way.
The young man was walking on top
of the moving freight as it pulled by
the North McGregor depot. A pas
senger train was standing on the side
track. AS the freight passed the pas
senger, it is believed the brakeman S
vision was obscured by the escaping
steam from the standing locomotive
and that making a misstep he fell be-
tween the cars. His light was seen
to suddenly go down and search for
him discovered his crushed body on
the tracks. He has been on the same
run for three years. His brother, al
so brakeman, was in North McGreg-
or at the time of the accident. The
body of the unfortunate man was
shipped to his home at Wauzeka,
Wis, this afternoon.

INvENTs ICELEss TROUGH.
John Bernhard, McGregOr, to Man.
ufacture Device for Heating
Stocks Water.

McGregor, Iowa, Jan. 20.-John
Bernhard who owns a 500 acre farm
six miles from McGregor, has just re-
ceived a patent from the government
on a device for heating water for
stock in cold weather. BY use of it
the ice bound watering trough OF the
past is obviated and cattle, horses
and hogs may drink water of COM
Portable temperature with the mer-
curry forty below zero, their owner,
meanwhile having nothing to do with
the matter except to pour in a little
more oil a couple of times day.
The device consists of a stove
which burns under water. A little cast
iron heater is placed on the bottom
of a watering tank in the barn or the
yard. Out of il reaches up pipe
above the water to small iron re-
ceptacle for kerosene. The oil feeds
from this receptacle down the pipe
to the submerged stoves where it is
changed to gas and burns as a gas
without smoke or odor. The
flow of oil is regulated according to
the weather. In zero weather the
fire is kept going all the time.
The novel heater is the outcome of
several years work by the inventor.
Last winter he. put it to thorough
test during the extreme weather in
January. The night the mercury fell
to 81 below zero the water in the
watering tanks was found in the
morning to register at "a above, the
temperature considered best for
stock.

MASSACRE SURVIVOR DEAD.
Mrs. Irene Thomas of Albion Among
Iowa's First Settlers.

arshalltown, Ia, Jan. 30 Mrs.
Irene Thomas of Albion, Ia, the last
surviving Iowan who was in the
Spirit Lake massacre of 1857, is
dead at the age of SO years.
Mrs. Thomas passed through some
of the most terrible experiences that
have ever befallen a woman. She
witnessed the killing CT her son, the
wounding of her husband, and the
burial of her baby daughter as the
result of an Indian attack.
Although known as the Spirit Lake
massacre because the uprising of the
Sioux began at Spirit Lake on March
IS, 1851 the massacre that Mrs.
Thomas witnessed was on Minnesota
soil, near where the town of Jack
son now stands, just north of the
Iowa line.
1t was there that the settlers of
southern Minnesota and nothern
Iowa gathered at the double log cab
in of James b. Thomas to prepare for
an attack from the. Reds. The at
tack came on March 20, after thirty
of the settlers, mostly women and
children were fortified in the Thomas
home.
The older boys among the refu-
gees fired at the Indians through the
portfolios of the cabin, while the wo-
men and older girls moulded bullets
and loaded rifles. The bombardment
continued for an hour AS a result
OF the raid seven were killed, includ-
ing William and George Wood, H.
Joshua Stewart, his wife and two
children, and William Thomas. John
b. Thomas was severely injured.
That night the party left with a
team of oxen and bobsled for Fort
Dodge, the nearest point of safey
and that about hundred miles away
On this long journey Mrs. Thomas
buried her little daughter, Marietta
three years old, who died of expos
ure. Mr.. Thomas was always a Grip
pie as a result of his wounds.

Fail to Awaken Girl in Long Sleep.

FIT. Madison, Ia, Jan. 20.-Miss
Ethel Cowles has been in a sound
sleep at her home in this city for
four days and nights and all efforts to
awaken her have proved of no avail.
He case has proved to local physic-
ians to be the most unusual and baf-
fling that has ever occurred in this
city. 1t is believed to be peculiar
form of hysteria, created three years
ago at the time of the death of her
mother, when she was overcome with
grief and shortly after lost almost
complete use of her faculties, being
unable to speak since that time.
