The lad, was 14 years of 8ge. was a son of Mr. and Mrs. Michael Nowack end had been for a time engaged at one of the chutes where he was supposed to prevent the coal from becoming clogged. -About-Ui39- young Nowack left his post and walked to the scraper 1 in a ew'ett'-a way--an4 iiig some pieces of coal, when in some manner his clothing caught and the unfortunate youngster was drawn by the scraper line to the shafting, whero his body was literally torn to pieces.

His head, one arm and one leg were sevred from the body, while the intestines and brains scattered upon the floor of the breaker. The duties of young Ncwack did not call him In the direction of the scraper line, but as the chute he was looking after was; carrying coal without any aasistancs from him, It is believed that in order to relieve the monotony of his labors he did as a number of boys have done before and as ethers have also done, paid the awful price. The funeral will take place to-day with services In St Adelberts Church, Rev; Father Siedleckl officiating. Interment will be in St. Adelbert Cemetery at Glen B.
