Mikoly Barsc of 2 Douglass New London, a Pole, familiarly known as Mike Smith, was fatally injured early Saturday morning when he was struck by a New Haven road train at the foot of Douglass street. Barsc died from his injuries on the way to the Lawrence hospital. ‘Barsc, horribly mangled about the lower part of the body, was found by the crew of a yard sewitcher about ll(fi The man was lying beside the eastbound track and his moans at- tracted the attention of the flagman of the switcher. Yardmaster Timothy S. V. Collins was notified of the g of the man and Dr. F. M. Dun¥¥ was hurriedly called. On the arrival of the physi- cian Barscswas alive, but unconscious. Emergency treatment was administer- ed, after which he was placed aboard the Lawrence hospital ambulance. He ‘was being rushed to the hospital when he_died. Barsc's body was terribly mangled. ‘Both legs were completely severed, his skull was fractured, there were inter- nal injuries and tme body was other- wise mangled. After the body had been removed one of his shoes contain- ing the crushed foot was found wedged between the crossing plank and the rail so tightly that it had to be pried out. It is not known which train struck Barsc. That the man was picking v coal along the track is evident from the fact that a partially filled bag of coal was discovered e¢lose by the spot where he was struck. The office of Superintendent Litchfield has been un- able to ascertain which trainf hit the man. It is supposed that Barsc was picked up by one of the early morning Owl trains leaving Boston and New York at midnight and passing through at 3.15 and 3.40 o'clock, although it is possible that the man was struck by a freight train. If either of the fast pas- senger (rgns hit Barsc no evidence could be fBund on the engines of the trains to indicate that such was the case. The theory is advanced that Barsc while picking up coal saw one train approach and in getting out of the ‘way stepped directly in front of a train going in the opposite direction. Barsc is 53 years of age and is sur- vived by his widow. A PIKE'S PEAK EXPERIENCE Julian R. Dillaby One of Party When the late Secretary T. J. Pence Got a Genuine Cl Practical Politics, published in Bos- ton, has the following of local inter- est, in connection with an anecdote of the late Secretary Pence: The late Thomas J. Pence, secretary of the Democratic National Commit- tee, “covered” the last Bryan conven- tion in 1908 at Denver for Josephus Daniels’ Raleigh (N. C.) News and Observer and joined Highway Com- missioner James W. Synan, then chairman of the democratic state committee, and Julian R. Dillaby, now of the secretary of state’s office and then political writer for the Boston Journal, on a side trip up Pike's Peak. It was a very warm day about the middle of July, but in climbing some 14,000 feet the _temperature dropped rapidly. In order to meet this condition the train hands keep a supply of old overcoats and wraps on hand, wearing apparel which relleves the discomfort of the unprepared. Pence carried no extra other than his trusty walking stick and he was obliged to hire a_heavy overcoat. He turned up the collar but still he was cold and got colder as he ascend- ed. He finally was obliged to get a second coat, but the two didn't keep him warm. Reaching the summit with the thermometer at 30 and snow knee deep, he galloped into the little stone building closeby and fairly hug- ged the stove until the signal was given for the return. Pence was the irst to board the train and shivered during the entire two hours coming down. When he arrived at Manitou, he peeled off the extra coats and re- marked in his drawli; tone, “Well that sure was some cold weather for July. T reckon after a fellow made that trip. two or three times he could follow Peary clear to the pole.” MAY LAND PLACE ON NATIONAL TEAM. Local Rifle Club Members Made High Scores at Armory.
