LIGHT POLE AT STATE COLLEGE,
Ransliall H, Shuey Meets Horrible Death by
Electrooution.— His skull Fractured In
Fall to Ground,
Randall H, Shuey, an employee of
the State-Centre Electric Company for
the past six years, was electrocuted
Friday noon while about to make
some repairs on one of the company’s
poles in the borough of Btate College.
Mr. Shuey bad ascended the pole to
the point where the iron brac:s are
located. A broken wire coming In
contact with the braces had charged
them so that when the man took hold
of them he was severely shocked, but
it was an instant later that he re-
ceived a more severe shock which re-
sulted fatally to him. In letting go of
the braces he was thrown backward,
his neck coming in contact with the
ly torn by the storm. The high vol-
tage of the wire'killed him at once,
but even though this would not have
resulted fatal, his fall to the ground
which followed would have killed
him, for upon examination It was
found that his skull had sustained a
compound fracture.
The unfortunate man was aged
twenty-eight years on the dsy of his
Boalsburg. He leaves a wife and two

severe blow to his family and numer-
ous friends.
