GROUND TO DEATH
Fulton Kansas Man Crushed
By a Train.
CORPSE SENT TO Fl. SCOTT
Was Trying to Get on the
Car Rods.

Yesterday Homer Volk of Fulton. Kan,
was ground to death under the wheels OF
the Missouri Pacific mixed train for XII
owa and Anthony. He was trying to bum
his way. He was with another man who,
Volk said, lived at Independence, Kan.
The two were together on the West Side
only a short way from where the Wich-
tia and Western crosses the Missouri Pa
cifc. volk made a grab for the rods on
the third car from behind The speed CT
the train jerked him in between the cars
and broke his hold. His face was cut
open by an iron brace on the lower part
of the car and his thighs were crushed
by dragging on the ties. He could talk
little for an hour or so, but died at Il
O'Clock yesterday.
When he fell his partner yelled out:
You damned fool, 1 told you not to try
that car
The man who was with Volk was prob
ably only a tramp beating his way over
the country with no particular place in
view. Volk was not a bad looking fellow
and had probably not been ION the road
very long. He had g in money when his
pockets were searched by the officers.
Coroner Mclaughlin held an inquest
over the body yesterday afternoon and
decided that Volk came to his death by
accident from the Missouri Pacific train
and with no blame attaching to any one
but himself.
volk probably had good connections as
Undertaken Dunbar received a telegram
from the Bank OF Fulton to ship the re-
mains to Fort Scott at once. The body
went by the Missouri Pacific at $50 last
night.
He was in charge Of the police depart
ment from the time he was killed until
the corpse was put on the train last night.
The man who was with him disappeared
and has not been seen since. The train
stopped only a few minutes when the ac-
cident occurred.

Mortified has organized a Board OF
Trade and is preparing to go after new
business in a way that Randolph should
emulate. A canvass was made n over
so citizens joined, paying a fee OF 81 each.
An organization has been made aud nine
standing committees appointed as fol-
observation-disclosures and New Industries,
Railroads and Transportation, Leglsla-
ton, Reception, Education, Agricultural
Interests, Slate, Granite and Quarry In
~terests, Summer Resort Interests, Adver-
Using and Printing. We wish our neigh
Dor good fortune and regret that a similar
spirit does not seem to exist in this town
to the extent desired. Randolph never
needed such an organization as much as
today. Can nothing be done?
The HERALD does not feel that the bur-
den of maintaining the morals OF this
community rests entirely on its shoulders.
There are other agencies, church, social
and, not least OF all, legal, that should be
called into requisltion, as occasion re-
quires. But the HERALD will not neg
lect it's duty II the others do, and asks the
attention Of parents while it seeks to i'm
press on them their obligations to their
children in certain directions. Randolph
is not, generally speaking, an immoral
town. As TO incompetence especially its
record is the best. But unfortunately
there is a laxness on the part OF some in
other and worse ways that deserves con-
oemnation. Some OF our young boys and
girls-and ONE Older ones-often give
reason for reports of a most scandalous
nature. Their actions are bold, approach
ing the limit of open lewdness. Plenty
of recent instances could be cited. Only
last Sunday night occurred n OF the
very worst that has come to our notice.
Character and reputation are too little
thought of. Parents, by constant watch
fuluess-and eXampie-can do much 10
inculcate proper ideas In their children.
Winch all else fails and certain persons be-
come concentrating influences in the
community the strong hand of the law
should be invoked and that, too, without
fear or favor. In taking this public no.
tice OF the offence, the HERALD has dis
charged its duty for the present and will
look to other agencies to follow up the
work IL occasion requires.
