A Cresco Boy Killed in Chicago.
Richard Cummings, who was serving as a policeman in Chicago, was knocked down and run over by a teamster while engaged in quelling a disturbance on a business corner in that city. This was done on Thursday, and Mr. C. died on Monday. His parents live in Cresco. It is a strike result.

Transcriber’s Note: Find a Grave shows that he is buried in Calvary Cemetery in Evanston, Illinois and was born in 1857 and died May 1, 1905.
