Missed IA Train That Was "A Day Late

Missed a Train Inat WINS u Dht Lut''
When the Switz City division Of the
Illinois Central was built IL was known
as the IIniiana and Illinois Southern
II was narrow gauge road. the road
bed was bad, the engines and cars
were built on miniature scale, and
while there was schedule, had n train
been on time the fact would have been
regarded as miracle. The road was
known as the "Try-W Weakly"
On one occasion Josiah Mcconnell
desired to 90 to Switz City from Sulli-
van. but missed the train by a minute
or two. The clock at the station show
ed that the train had left Sullivan five
minutes ahead OF time. and Mcconnell
sued the railroad company for $4,000
damages. On n trial of the case II
was proved beyond doubt that the
train Mcconnell missed should have
gone the day before and was really
twenty-three hours and fifty-fve min
utes late.-Indianapoils News

the Holiday Season.

The schools closed here for the holiday
vacation OF two weeks yesterday. The
closing OF the old No. s school, which
is now known as the Willett avenue
school was a very pleasant affair. A large
Christmas tree was set up In the recita-
ton room from which presents were dis
tributed among the pupils. An interest
ing feature of the presentation Of gifts
was that nearly all OF them had been
made by the children in spare moments
during the past month. The tree was
very prettily decorated and presented a
most attractive appearance prior to the
distribution OF presents
A SURE SIGN

of the Christmas season, and that is the
daily excursions of men and boys into
the woods east OF this place for ever

casionally some other kind OF green trees
are found.
Those who go after the trees are not

first tree they can see that suits their
fancy. In this way many trees are
spoiled each year. a person after cutting

NO HEARSES FOR FUNERALS
Chicago Mournsrs Must Ride on Trolley
During Livery Drivers Strike, Now On.

Chicago Dec. ls.-Livery drivers will
strike throughout the city. Every driver
belongs to the union and every employer
belongs TO one OF the four organizations
of liverymen and undertakers. When
the strike is called every owner will take
In his teams and close up shop.
Even hearses will not be sent out OF the
barns. The undertakers' wagons will be
used to carry the dead to the cemeteries.
These will probably be driven by the en-
ployers themselves. There will be no
carriages supplied by the relatives of per-
sons overtaken by death during the
strike. Mourners will have to follow the
black wagon on street cars. Representa-
tives OF the Livery Drivers union called
on officials OF the traction companies
Thursday and asked them TO provide fu-
neral trains. as is the custom in Detroit
and some other cities.
I'VE do not want to hire non-union
drivers" declared G.. b. Kinney. secre-
tary OF the Liverymen's association. IN
would be too great a risk 10 serd out
costly carriages. They might be de-
stroyed by mobs. Our plan will be 10
shut up shop until the strikers realize
that their demands are unreasonable"
Questions OF wages and recognition OF
the union are involved in the dispute. The
drivers want an advance from S12 TO s14
week. Nearly 1000 drivers will be af-
fected and half as many stablemen wpl
be discharged temporarily 10 reduce the
running expenses of the barns.
