The present board has returned the street to the city, and the mayor has ordered the road over- seer to do a sufficient amount of work on it to make it at least passable. Martin Flynn was killed near Anthony, N. M., Wednesday morning. He had recently been promoted to the position of road master and was in charge of the work train distribut- ing ballast where the recent high water had washed out. He was riding on a car of rock, when a sudden stoppage of the train caused him to fall between the cars; he was run over and horribly mangled, his skull being crushed, his left arm and right leg severed from his body. Death was instantaneous. A Celebrated Case Barney Kerr Acquitted. An Able Defense.
