ROAD GAVE AWAY.

Louis kokas, aged about 35
years, Greek laborer employed
by Grant Smith & Co., on the
North and South highway, was
killed last Wednesday morning
near Goff, when the roadbed
gave way, and the motor truck
in which he was riding plunged
seventy-five feet over a precipice
into the Salmon river, below.
With Kokas, and driving the
truck was Hugh Vigner, of
Grangeville, who jumped as the
machine went over the grade,
and escaped injury. Kokas al
80 jumped, but in some manner
was caught by the tract, or a
piece of heavy machinery which
was being transported in the
truck. His forehead, above his
left eye, was laid open, and mis-
skull was fractured.
Kokas was rendered uncon-
scious, but lived for an hour and
a half after the accident occurred.
DR.. w. A. Foskett of Whitebird
was summoned, but the man
died before the physician arriv-
ed.
At the place where Kokas was
killed, the road had been built
along the mountain side. Iron
stakes had been driven into the
ground to hold logs, which form
ed a support on the sidehill for a
filled-in-road. The logs had
rotted, through age, and when
Kakas and Vigner drove over the
road with 5000 pounds of mach
inery, the logs gave way, and
the entire outfit plunged over
the grade.
The men were moving mach
inery between Camp a and 5.
kokas, according TO persons
with whom he conversed. early
Wednesday morning, told of a
premonition that he would be
killed during the day.
81 had horrible dreams last
night" he is quoted as saying.
81 dreamed all night of rabbits
and cats. / was chasing a rab-
bit and caught it, when sudden
ly it turned into the devil" He
said that he hesitated TO go to
work. for he felt something
awful" would happen. - Free
