Accident on the Railroad.
Yesterday afternoon a special engine
and cars arrived in The Dalles .bringing
the body of Karl Barkentine, who had
been killed during the afternoon at
Mosier. The steam shovel was at work
just east of Mosier, where the men were
engaged in loading ballast on the cars
There was a bank of sand about thirty
five feet high between which and the
steam shovel the unfortunate man was
working. The bank was known to be
sliding and the men were instructed to
keep a sharp lookout. Suddenly the
sand and gravel began to cave and the
foreman cried, "Look out." Barkentiue
started to run, but instead of running
away from the slide he ran right into it.
W. L. Owen, who was working within
five feet of Barkentine, when he saw the
slide coming ran the opposite way and
escaped all right, the dirt just hitting
bis beels. Barkentine was buried in six
feet ot eand and gravel. As soon as the
accident occurred the men went to work
with all possible epeed to dig him out,
but it was over 30 minutes before he was
extricated.
Barkentine was a nathe of Denmark,
and had worked with the steam shovel,
gang Eince the middle of last August.
He was a sober, industrious young man
and leaves no relatives in this country
except a brother who resides at Viento.
As soon as the remains were brought to
town, Coroner Butts summoned a jury
and held an inquest. There was clearly
no blame attachable to any one and the
cause of the man's death was that in the
hurry and confusion made bv the sliding
rocks and sand he mistook which was !
the better way to run. Walter Colhne.
the foreman, Ed Klyne, W. Stewart, W.
L. Owen, H. A. Miller and Ed Holmes,
fellow workmen, were called as witnesses,
all of them testifying that in their belief
no one but the deceased was at fault.
Following is the jury's verdict:
We, the jury empanelled by the cor
oner of Wasco county, Oregon, to inquire
into the cause of the death of Karl Bark
entine, find :
That the name of the deceased is Karl
Barkentine; that he is a native of Den
mark, aged about 22 years ; about five
feet and ten inches high, with light com
plexion and small light colored
moustache. That the said Karl Bark
entine came to his death on October 29,
1895, near Mosier in this county , "while
working with the steam shovel of the
O. R. & N. Co., by being suffocated under
a bank of sand near which he was work
ing, the said bank of sand having caved
and fallen on him. And we further find
that the accident which caused the death
of the deceased was' unavoidable.
Dated at The Dalles, Or., this 29th
day of October, 1895. n

display is certainly grand, and is count
ed as fine as was ever made in the
state. Those having never visited an
exhibition of this kind, can have but a
faint idea of the perfection attained in
the poultry kingdom, both as to form
and beauty. The Regulator . last ev en
ing brought up about Wo hundred
fowls, and more are to come tonight.
In addition to the entries published
yesterday, the following exhibits were
made today by Dalles people: Joles
Bros., wild geese and peacocks ; J. II.
Riggs, Chinese or Mongolian pheasants;
Liebe, white Bantams; W. C. Barrel,
block breasted Red Games ; E. M.
Smith, Buff Leghorns. Other entries
will be made this evening and tomorrow
morning.
Many of the coops contain specimens
of great value. A coop of Langshans
may be seen that are valued at $75. A
coop of magnificent light Brahma?, value
$50. The cock in this coop weighs four
teen pounds and has yet much to grow.
All the other classes are also represent
ed by specimens most perfect in form
and color. The crop of Chinese pheas
ants attract great attention, as these are
the first that have been exhibited on
this side of the Cascades. The fancy
pigeon display is yery large and unique.
The fantails are there in all colors, and
behave in a most pleasing manner. The
carriers are grand birds and most at
tractive. The exhibit, as a whole, is indeed
fine, and no one should fail to see it. '
A move is being made today towards
forming an athletic club. Prof. Lucien
M. Chriatol is in the city and ha3 inter
viewed a number of our. young men on
the question. lie lias met. with great
encouragement and has consented to
spend a month in The Dalles, fie is
organizing a class of twenty members
and will give them a thorough course in
boxing, fencing and various kinds oi
athletics. At the end of that time .or
sooner perhaps, it is probable a club will
be formed and a gymnasium fitted np.
Such an organization would be a splendid
thing for the young men of this city. It
would give them a place to spend their
spare time profitably and pleasantly.
La Grande, Pendleton and other citiea
have organizations of this kind and the
members derive great benefit from them.
We hope the athletic club proposition
will be taken hold of in a hearty spirit
and pushed to an erly formation. The
class will meet tomorrow afternoon.
Evening lessons will also be given.
