ED SHANDA
IS NO MORE
WELL AND FAVORABLY KNOWN
HERE WHERE HE LIVED
FOR NEARLY A YEAR
(From the Juneau Empire)
TREADWELL, Dec. 18—Edward
Schanda, an oiler at the Mexican
Hoist, was killed shortly after he
went to work on the seven o’clock
shift this morning.
It seems that Schanda went down
into the pit. where the reverse gear
of the hoisting engine is located,
for the purpose of adjusting the
gears, and after performing the
task called up to Emil Youngstrom,
the engineer, that everything was
all right. About this time, it ap
pears the engineer had received a
signal to hoist the cage, and after
calling to Schanda did so. He then
reversed the engine, as usual, and
it is thought that a heavy balance
weight, which was released by the
reversal of the engine, caught and
crushed the deceased. However,
no one seems to be positively cer
tain as to just how he was injured.
When Schanda was caught he
! screamed to Youngstrom who im
fnediately reversed the hoisting
engine, which released Schanda. He
then climbed out of the pit, walked
some thirty or forty feet and col
lapsed without speaking. He was
started to the hospital, but died
on the way. An unusual fact con
nected with the case is that Schan
da’s neck was dislocated, notwith
standing he was able to climb out
of the pit and walk a short distance
before death ensued.
The deceased was a native of
: Elborough. Ia., was 28 years of
age and is survived by a widow,
j Mrs. Mabel Schanda, and an infant
daughter, about six months old,
1 who reside at Douglas, and by two
brothers, Louis Schanda, of Irving
j Towa. and Charles Schanda, of
Mountaindale, Oregon. They both
have been notified of his death
The funeral services will be held
| from the Swedish Lutheran Church
Monday at 2 o’clock in the after
noon. The interment will I'e made
at the Douglas cemetery.
Schanda was well known on the
Island, and was generally liked by
those who knew him. He played
1 cornet in the Treadwell band and
the Treadwell orchestra for several
; years. He also played in the Lyric
I orchestra, at Douglas.
This death has a peculiar coinci
dence with the one which occured
at Treadwell two years ago. Ward
Lugton, an oiler at the Mexican
Hoist, was caught and wound a
round the drum, which caused his
death on December 21st, 1913. Lug
ton was survived by a widow and
infant child. »
