Pittsburg, Kan., Jan 28 – An Austrian miner named Joe Teotta was frozen to 
death in the middle of main street of Chicopee, a Mount Carmel company mining 
camp two miles south of this city. He was found this morning about 7 o’clock by 
an Italian miner on his way to work. When last seen alive Teotta was in a 
saloon owned by an Italian named Valentine and he was much under the influence 
of liquor. This was about 10:30 o’clock Tuesday night and he left the place 
with the remark that he was going home.

It is supposed he fell and was either stunned and froze before he regained 
consciousness or was too much under the influence of liquor. In his mustache 
was clotted blood.

Teotta  was 45 years of age and was a member of the Austrian society and 
Imperial O. R. M. He is survived by a widow and four children.
