FALL BRINGS DEATH
Reinhold Kleist of This City Killed at Duluth - He Was a Locomotive Fireman

Announcement has been received here of the death at Duluth, Minn., of
Reinhold Kleist, whose home was in this city. According to a dispatch
received by The Northwestern, Mr. Kleist’s death was the result of an
accident and occurred Wednesday. The dispatch states that Mr. Kleist, who
was a locomotive fireman, fell from his engine on the Missabe? ore dock and
fell into an ore pocket, sustaining injuries from which  he died in a
hospital several hours later. Mr. Kleist was in the habit of working as a
railroad fireman during the summer months and when not engaged in that
occupation made his home in this city with his widowed mother, Mrs.
Wilhelmina Kleist, who resides on Minnesota street. He was unmarried and
besides his mother is survived by two brothers and a sister, all of whom
live in this city. The brothers are Gustave and Herman Kleist. The remains
of the unfortunate young man probably will be brought here for burial.
