Struck By FAST NAIL
Neal Murphy. : Stranger In the
City, Fatally injured sunday
Morning.
Struck BY the Q. 4 n. W. Fast Mail
While Walking on the Track
Was Intoxicated.
Dies Early This Morning Nothing
Known Of the Mans History
Or Relatives.

The third fatality in as many weeks in
the railroad yards Of this city was
caused Sunday morning, when a stran-
ger giving his name as Neal Murphy
and his home as anywhere was struck
by the fast mail train on the North
western and received injuries from
which he died at 2o'clock this morning.
Murphy had been at the depot Sum
day morning in company with a COM
panion named Milton Crawford. Craw-
ford says that both had been drinking
and that Murphy was considerably un-
der the influence OF liquor. They parted
about $3.50 and Murphy said he was
going east to Linn creek to wash He
started down the track and when oppo-
site Ninth avenue the fast mail train
approached. Murphy stepped to one
side. but did not get far enough away
from the track. He was struck in the
left side by the dead block OF the pilot
OF the engine and was thrown with
great violence, but not under the
wheels. The train was stopped, the man
was picked up and brought to the de-
pot. After he regained consciousness
Agent Garvin ordered him sent to the
Getz hospital to receive care and treat
ment. His injuries were thought to be
fatal from the first, as the ribs on his
left side were broken and crushed and
he was injured internally. His left arm
was also crushed.
( During his conscious moments the
man told the attending physician that
his name was Neal Murphy, but that it
made no difference where his home was.
He told Agent Garvin, however, that
his home was In Kansas City. Craw-
ford, his companion, says that he knows
little of Murphy. He met him here and
had arranged to go to Kansas City with
him. He says Murphy had little mon
ey and had sent his clothing to that
place. On Murphy's person was found
some small change and check for his
clothes. Murphy had been working for
the Northwestern on the double track
extension east OF this city, but had quit
on the 9Th of the present month. Off
GER Weaver says he observed him walk
ing east on the track Just before he was
struck, and noticed that he was intoxi-
Gated, but thought he was able to take
care OF himself.
After Murphy's death the body was
removed to the Simkins parlors, where
| 1t will be held until Agent Garvin re-
lceives instructions from the headquar-
| ters of the company as to its final dis
posal. 1t is probable the remains will
be inferred here at the company's ex-
lpense, unless relatives are found. MUIR
| ply was probably 81 or 3S years of age,
and while not professional tramp he
was of a rowing disposition and, as he
said himself had no real home.

Mr.. Scrymser has travelled Throughout,
the east and in Europe. but had never
before been west of Chicago. He is en-
thusiastic concerning the west, and says
it is certainly Gods country. In the
east he is accustomed to see patches OF
corn two or three acres in extent, and
when he saw in Iowa field after field
hundreds OF acres in extent he was al
most bewildered. He now appreciates
the vast difference between New York
and an Iowa farm.

When To Whom when
Loaned. Loaned. Returned.

1.-THE teacher is required to keep
complete record of every book issued
and must exercise continuous vigilance
to see that the pure, spotless leaves
thereof are in no way sullied or dam
aged by the profane little hands which
turn them; in fact she must inspect the
books with as much regularity and Sc
verify as captain does the arms and
clothing of his company. All this ne
cessitates an enormous amount of ex-
ira labor, and so 1t can be said. without
fear Of contradiction, that neither
teachers nor pupils have been seen to
kick up their heels or paw up the grass
from the school house lawns In a mad
paroxysm Of joy over the free school
books system.
And yet much, If not all. Of the pre-
cautions taken are necessary for the
safety and preservation Of the school
books. During the first two days when
school opened last week over 10000
books were issued to pupils and rec
ord kept of the kind OF book, its number
and to whom issued.
.Ex- Superintendent Cooper perhaps
had more to do than any other
one person In the inauguration OF the
free system In Yves Des Moines. It was
upon his advice that the people voted
for the system. He estimated tnat after
the first installment Of books was pur
chased the approximate cost to main
tain the system would be from $1,000 to
81, 500 per year. The school board has
gone ahead in establishing the system
with the belief that even il the cost
should reach $4,000 year there would
still be saving Of nearly rs per cent
in the final cost of all books used In the
schools. 1t is estimated that the aver
age life Of school book is six years,
and 1t Is upon this calculation that this
estimate is based. If these deductions
are anywhere near correct, the system
will prove a great benefit to the public,
as the old system was considered quite
economical. the school board purchasing
books at cost and selling them to pu-
pills without profit. The new system
will doubtless greatly reduce the ex-
pense II the experience OF the East Side
schools, which have tried the expert
ment for year or two, 4 any criterion

There are few OF our citizens except

The factory is located in one Of the old
Ketchum wagon works buildings near
the fair grounds, which is 64x160, two
stories. It is a busy place, as the pro-

and are devoting their entire time to

also manufacturing the compressed air

the latest improved, and last week they

A Man Attempts to .sieze Child
From It's Mother.
1t seemed at the depot Saturday eve
ming that Solomon and his wisdom in
deciding to which claimant to award
a disputed child would be necessary,
but Officer Weaver answered as well
when he was attracted to the commo-
ton and marched off to Jail Lou"
ROGUE. The depot and platform were
full OF people, as 1t was but short time
before the leaving time of the $50
trains. Mrs. Fred Burgess was at the
train, about to leave for Eagle Grove,
her home. when ROGUE. who is her
step-father, came up to her and en-
deavored to snatch from her her little
5-year-old son, Floyd. She chung to the
child and refused to loosen her hold,
notwithstanding the threats OF ROGUE.
Mrs. Burgess says that a few years ago
her little boy was put In her mothers
keeping, but he had never been adopt
ed. Part of her time she spent here with
her mother and after a weeks visit,
was returning home with her child.
ROGUE is man of none too savory a
reputation. Last May he attempted to
kill himself, and while he is intoXicat-
ed, which Is not infrequently, he has
oftentimes threatened his family. Ills
wife says he was drunk Saturday after
noon. as he had gone to the train from
their home, 206 South Seventh avenue.
where he had been throwing the furni-
ture out OF the window and raising a
general disturbance. She says she will
go to Stanhope, where she has son,
Dave Nickerson, as she fears his wrath
when he Is released. The sympathy of
the bystanders. as well as of Mrs.
ROGUE, was with Mrs. Burgess and she
left for home as she had expected, with
her little son safe in her keeping.
ROGUE was arraigned before the
mayor this morning and was charged
with disturbing the peace. He was
fined $50 and costs and was released.

People do rot always realize the per-
sonal interest that a first class grocer
takes in the articles of food which he
furnishes his customers.
Some people believe that the grocer
is influenced only by the profit he may
derive, and that his recommendations
are governed entirely by a mercenary
motive. but this is not always true. On
the contrary it is believed that ma
jority of the better class of grocers are
thoroughly honest in their desire to
furnish their patrons with really pure
and nourishing food.
The following from John Wallgren,
prominent grocer of Portland, Ore.
may be of interest: Il am on my tenth
case of Cirape-Nuts and my trade is
still increasing. I have been bothered
with weak stomach for five years. I
have tried a number of remedies and
patent medicines without help. l am
eating Grape-Nuts three times day
and after using three packages must
admit that am relieved of my weak
stomach and feel like new man
There is reason for this. A weak
stomach can take Grape-Nuts and di-
gest them without difficulty, for Grape
Nuts are actually pre-digested and
ready for immediate transformation
into rich blood and good strong tissue,
both of muscle and brain. They are
generally admitted to be the most
scientifically made food in the world,
in which the starch of the cereals is
transformed into grape sugar and this
is done without the use of any sort of
drugs or acid whatever. On the con-
trary, all of the processes are purely
mechanical, using simply moisture,
time Gin which to grow the diastase)
and heat. but the work of the human
system is copied almost exactly. with
the result that the food is ready for
Immediate assimilation.
The flavor is exquisite and delicate,
the sweet of grape sugar can be de-
tected. The food is absolutely free
from cane or beet sugar, but the fine.
almost microscopic particles of grape
sugar can be seen glistening on the
surface of the small granules. Grape
Nuts with cream furnishes the most
delicious breakfast food in existence,
and this food is in use now by practi-
cally all of the we'll to do families in
America. The demand has been so great
that the factory has been running
steadily both night and day for up
wards of year, and the fame of the
American breakfast dish has spread to
many OF the other countries of the
world.
