KICKED TO DEATH


Charles Steinhauer, 58, a driver residing at 406 West Twelfth street, Newport Ky. was killed last evening in a runaway accident on Licking Pike in that city, near the bridge that crosses the L and N Railroad tracks. He had been out to his farm a few miles from Newport, and was returning in a wagon, when at the above point the horse that he was driving took fright at a locomotive.

The animal ran away and threw Steinhauer out, dragging him about 40 feet and kicking him in the temple, inflicting a ghastly wound, from which the brains oozed. He was picked up and sent to his home, but died before reaching there. The horse ran some distance before being caught. Steinhauer was married and leaves a wife and several children.
