been killed by the cars, before which he had
thrown himself in the railroad yards in Ibis

left his store, saying be was going to the Wa

which he was expecting, and it was near the
depot he was killed. Whether it was suicide
or an accident is matter about which there
is difference OF opinion. The suicide theory
is strengthened by the fact that Mr.. Schramm
has been considerably depressed of late by
the death of a daughter. He was 65 years of
age and has lived here for thirty-fve years
