KILLED NEAR EDEN
John Arnold, a young man of Menasha who was beating his way home from the south part of the state on a box car in the freight train which went through here just before midnight last Monday night, was struck by the overhead trestle of the bridge just north of Eden and his skull fractured from which he died before the train reached Fond du Lac. He was 10 years old and was with a young man named John Tumme, also of Menasha. The two boys had been in Milwaukee, Racine and Kenosha looking for work, but finding none, and their supply of cash running out, they had to beat their way home. Tummet was able to hold the body on the ear until they reached Fond du Lac. Justice Watson impaneled a jury at once and the inquest was held Wednesday afternoon.
