A very sad death occoured in the
family of Mr.. and Mrs. Steve Maslen
who live about ten miles west of Lewis,
last Saturday, when their ten year old
son passed away. The boy had worked
all day Friday with his father, and had
seemed proud of the fact that he was
at last big enough to be real help.
After supper he played out of doors
with the other children until late
hour, but before retiring complained
of not feeling well. When asked by
his mother what seemed to be the
trouble, he answered, 81 don't know
but it seems as though lot of water
were running into my stomach" He
grew worse through the night and
early Saturday morning his father got
Mr.. Sigler to take them to Cortez to
the hospital. where before the doctor
could have time to make full investi-
CATION. and decide just what was the
matter, he passed away. 1t was
thought that death was caused by the
bursting of blood vessel, and that it
was the blood running into the stomach
that caused the sensation above re-
ferred to. Mr.. and Mrs Maslen have
the deepest sympathy of all who knew
them, and especially because this is
their second bereavement within short
time. A younger son passed away
very suddenly two years ago, just as a
new baby entered the home. and in
the present case a little atranger had
arrived and was just three days old
Sunday. May 9. Funeral services
were conducted at Lewis in charge of
Rev. Dilley. Interment is Lewis Gem

The advent of the motor car upon
which the section men wait to go to
work has spelled disaster to railroad
transportation. The section men are
now only on duty eight hours day
and it takes four hours to get one of
these cars started so that by the time
it starts it is noon then afternoon it
takes another four hours to start the
car and by then it is quitting time.
When section man acquires sufficient
mechanical skill to keep one of these
cars in shape so that he can start it in
less than four hours some enterprsing
garage man offers him position at
$500 day and he quits the section and

Mondays train from Durango turned
over about eight miles the other side of
Mancos. The Superintendent's car,
which was just out of the shop after
turning over in Lost Canon two weeks
ago, was on the tail end of the train
and it turned over and pulled the other
cars over with it. The engine kept
the track. The official car had been
repaired and all newly painted and the
-supposition is that the paint was little
heavier on one side than the other
causing it to turn toward the heavier
side. This car was empty but there
were several passengers in the other
coaches and some of them were bruised
and cut but no one seriously hurt.
