WHEEL
BURST, KILLING
THE ENGINEER
seven-ton Flywheel Of Pow

ing Like German Bomb.

Minot, N. D., Oct. 17.-Engineer
David McClusky was instantly killed
In h power plant OF the Northern
states Power company early This
morning when the fywheel on the en-
CINE burst into pieces and flew in all
directions. The wheel weighed about
seven tons and when it broke away,
three pieces of about 400 pounds each
went through the walls and ROOT Of
the building, flying to different parts
of the city.
One piece of $50 pounds went over
a lumber yard and the roofs of sew
eral houses, fell on the paving a block
away and bounced into 70 store build
ing through the windows. Another
piece landed on the 500 track and
broke both rails.
Luckily the accident happened
early in the morning, before people
were on the street. Had it happened
during the day or evening, several
people would have undoubtedly been
killed.
MoClusky was 20 years old. He
had BEEF here three years, coming
from Granville. Ill. He was not mar
ried and was to have gone with the
next draft quota. He was alone in
the power house when the wheel
broke and was found with his head
badly crushed. It is supposed that a
piece of metal struck him and killed
him instantly. Coroner. ]. r. Pence
decided that an inquest vas not nee
essary.
The damage to the building and
machinery has not been estimated.
