                 KILLED BY FALLING
                 
                 GEORGE DOAK fell from the top of the smoke-stack
               on Leyk's planing-mill yesterday and was killed.
               DOAK was an old sailor and at one time one of the
               proprietors of the Ella Doak and one of the best
               sailors on the lake. Whiskey got the better of him
               and for the past few years he has been tarring
               smoke-stacks for a living. Last year he fell from
               a stack in Oshkosh, a distance of eighty-six feet,
               and came out with only a broken leg. Yesterday he
               fell seventy feet, striking on his head on the roof
               of the engine house, with the result stated. He
               leaves a sister, Mrs. McLAUGHLIN, at Sturgeon Bay,
               and a brother, ALEX. DOAK, at Green Bay. -
