the Sir Johns Run Wreck.
Yesterday afternoon while. bringing
engine 427 east, engineer E. F. Kisner
noticed the body of man beside the
track in the vicinity of Doe Run. He
stopped his train and upon investi
cation found that the man had evident
ly been dead for some time. The man
was quite neatly dressed, had SO in
money and watch and chain. No
papers were found in his pockets by
