HARRY KELLOG, OF MONON, LOST LIFE

Monon Brakeman Killed While Making Coupling at Monticello Thursday—Lived Few Hours. Harry Kellog, a brakeman on the local freight between Monon and Indianapolis, lost his life at Monticello. Thursday afternoon. He was making an air coupling and a drawbar on one of the cars broke and he was crushed between two strings of cars. One leg was badly mashed and he received internal injuries. He was placed on a train and started to the Lafayette hospital, but died when Reynolds was reached. He was a single man about 25 years of age. The rush abodt a printing office on some publications days causes somp queer mistakes. An item about a baby born to Mr. and Mrs. Roe Yeoman at the home of his parents, Mr. and Mrs. A K. Yeoman, did not state the sex of the child in the Evening Republican, while in the Semi-Weekly it was 'printed that the child was a girl. It was, however, a boy, doubtless just what the father and grandfather were most hoping for, and a mighty fine boy, too, which will secure for the father the congratulations of his many friends.
