FIRST FATALITY AT GOVERNMENT DAM
Harvey Foehlinger a Brakeman on The
Gravel Train Loses Life Under the
Wheels Was 22 Years Old
The first fatality since the commence
ment of the government work on the
Upper Deer Flat embankment occurred
about 1130 Thursday morning when
Harvey Foehlinger who was employed
as a brakeman on a gravel train at the
dam started to swing himself aboard a
car lost his footing and was thrown
beneath the wheels to be picked up a
few seconds later after three or four
heavily loaded cars had passed over
him lifaless and mangled
The train had loaded up and had start
ed to pull up when Foehlinger met with
the accident which caused his death
He stood by the side of the train talking
with a fellow workman and in some
what of a careless manner started to
board one of the cars He started to
swing himself on and either lost his
hold or his feet went under in such a
manner that he could not get himself
out from beneath the train
Foehlinger was twenty two years of
age and had been employed on the gov
ernment work for some months His
home was in Nebraska As soon as the
accident occurred the coroner was noti
fied and proceeded to the dam to hold
an inquest
Coroner Lang came over from Parma
as soon as he could get here and held
an inquest last evening at the Shella
barger undertaking parlors to which
place the body had been taken The
jury decided as the evidence clearly
showed that the deceased came to his
death from accidental causes
Foehlinger had been at work at the
dam for about six months About two
weeks ago he had quit and gone to
Huntington but returned in a short
time and went to work at the dam
again He was thought to be twenty
two years of age but it seems ho was
not yet twenty and gave his age as
twenty two that he might hold his posi
tion at the dam During the time he
was in town he roomed at tho home of
Mrs Small who lives near the Frazier
blacksmith shop and the people there
and all who knew the young man speak
highly of him His relatives live near
McCook Nebr on a farm He leaves
his father two brothers and two sisters
Deceased came from a gocd family
and had a good home but the death of
his mother caused him to leave and
come west
Word was sent to the authorities at
McCook to look up the boys father
and have him advise as to the disposi
tion of the remains If no word is re
ceived as to shipment the interment
will be made here Clipped fromNampa

A Curious Anomaly
Until a few years ago the Philippine
Islanders held their Sunday on the day
which was Monday to the inhabitants
of the neighboring island of- Borneo
This curious anomaly arose from the
historic fact that the Philippines were
discovered by Spanish voyagers com
ing from the east round Cape Horn
while Borneo was discovered by Por
tuguese coming from the west and sail

their direction in crossing the Pacific

TYBURN TREE
Ferrers Tragic Journey
to the
Famous Old Gallows
Park lane was Tyburn lane and It
seems as if the gallows described in
an old document as movable at one
time stood at Its east corner It was
there the ferocious Lord Ferrers was
hung in 1760 for murdering his serv
ant Horace Walpoles words paint
the picture well He shamed heroes
He bore the solemnity of a pompous
and tedious procession of above two
hours from the Tower to Tyburn with
going to his own burial not to his own
execution And when one of the
dragoons of the procession was thrown
from his horse Lord Ferrers expressed
much concern and said I hope there
will be no death today but mine
On went the procession with a mob
about It sufficient to make Its progress
slow and laborious Small wonder that
the age of Thackeray with Thack
erays help set up Its scaffolds within
four high walls Asking for drink
Lord Ferrers was refused for said the
sheriff late regulations enjoined him
not to let prisoners drink while pass
ing from the place of imprisonment to
that of execution great indecencies
having been committed by the drunk
enness of the criminals in tho hour of
execution And though said he my
lord I might think myself excusable
in overlooking this order out of regard
to your lordships rank yet there is an
other reason which I am sure will
weigh with you your lordship is sen
sible of the greatness of the crowd
we must draw up at some tavern the
confluence would be so great that it
would delay the expedition which
your lordship seems so much to de
sire But decency so often paraded
by those who outrage it ended with
the murderers death The execution
ers fought for the rope and the one
who lost it cried the greatest tragedy
to his thinking of the day London

Old Dr Ryland clergyman and ed

his custom to offer prayer whenever
he made a ministerial call On one
occasion he called at a house where
three of his former pupils were stay
ing These ladies were all past the
thirtieth year mark but in the eyes
of the old gentleman they were still
girls which explains the petition he
offered
