James Bridges, a stranger In Waila Walla, but evidently a worklngman, last night was literally ground to pieces under the outgoing o'clock train to Wallula over the O. K. ft N. It la thought the man attempted to beat the company out of a ride and at the time he fell under the wheels he was trying to swing underneath onto the "rods," says the Walla Walla Bulletin. ' . The. express messenger on the train heard or felt the wheels passing over something, nnd signaled the train to top. An investigation revealed parte of the body scattered along the track. The features of the man's face were not recognizable, as the head was crushed. The man was Identified by a labor union card showing a mem bership In the Shingle Weavers' union, Local No. 13. The card was lnsued at llarysvtlle, Wash. THE HAY CHOI. Timothy and Alfulfa a Little Short Wild Hny Very CJood.'' v ' .. ... i . One. of the best Informed men of the valley says of the hay "crop for this year: "The total cut throughout the val ley will be a little short, compared with last year's crop. I believe .the wild hay Is up to the average, but the timothy Is not quite as good as ununl; neither is the alfalfa. The tim othy and wild hay are also late, and before cutting time we may get enough rain to help considerably. Boy Drowned at Echo, y Jimmy McRoberts, 7-year-nld son of the proprietor of the restaurant at Echo, was drowned In "the Umatilla river at that place at 3:J0 Thursday afternoon. He was sitting on the new steel bridge fishing, and wtis' pulled In by a large sucker. Though his body" wns recovered within IS mln utfs efforts to rei-tore consciousness were In vain.
