ACCIDENTS & FATALITIES.
KILLED AT A CROSSING. (Per Press Association.) CHRISTCHURCH. May 16. Ernest Arnold, a single man, aged 62, was killed at the Sockhurn railway crossing by the south express to-night. Arnold, who suffered severely from rheumatism, was walking across the crossing, and evidently failed to see the incoming train owing to mist and rain. The express was 20 minutes’ late, which probably caused Arnold to keep a loss careful watch.
DEATH OF A BOY. DUNEDIN. May 16. William Kiddell, 15 years of age, died at a dental school to-day while under an anaesthetic for the purpose of having his teeth extracted.
