New Richmond.--North-bound local limited pasenger[sic] train on the Omaha road ran over an unidentified man near Burkhardt. He died shortly after being taken in train enroute to this city. There was nothing on the man to identify his body. He evidently was a laborer, sixty years old, six feet tall and weight about 175 pounds. He had lost two fingers on his right hand.
