William Stock Loses Life at Paxico
Sunday.

Paxico. Kan, Aug. s1.-William
Steck, a farmer boy 20 years of age,
was struck by westbound passenger
train No. 13 on the Rock Island at 1875
a. m. Sunday, receiving injuries from
which he died about four o'clock. Young
Steck was returning from a dance at
Paxico and had taken the young lady,
who had accompanied hint her home.
The accident occurred at the crossing
of the Rock Island tracks a half mile
east of Paxico. A freight train was
standing on a siding nearby. Steck was
driving fractions elorse and it is pos
sible that he was So occupied with it
that he failed to see the approaching
passenger train. The pilot of the en-
CINE struck the horse, caught it and
carried it 100 feet. The animal was
killed and the buggy smashed. Steck
is'not believed to have been hit by the
engine but he was thrown twenty feet
TO one side. Several ribs on the right
side were smashed and penetrated his
lungs. He did not fully regain con-
seriousness though DIR. Webb worked
with him industriously. The funeral
was held this morning.

ASBELL CASE is UP.
Aged Father Tries to Prove Son Is
Innocent

Governor Bailey is wrestling with the
Marion Asbel pardon case this after
noon. f. NJ Asbell, father of Marion
Asbell, who was sent to the penitentiary
a number of years ago under the death
sentence for alleged wife murder, came
TO Topeka from Labette county this
morning at the head of a delegation to
ask for his sons pardon. Among the
number are Judge Nelson Case of Os-
wego and NJ. b. Glass of Columbus.
The governor wrote Mr. Asbell few
weeks ago that it would do no good to
ask for his sons pardon unless he could
present positive evidence that the son is
innocent. To do this Mr.. Asbell has
brought Dr. George A. Liggett of Os-
wego, who made an examination of the
dead woman's brains and claims to have
found burned powder in them The
chief point on which Asbell was con-
victed was that there were no powder
marks in the brain. 1t was a question
whether the shot that killed the woman
was fired from distance or from close
to the head. In the latter case there
would have been powder marks on the
head and the verdict would have been
suicide, but the prosecution at the time
of the trial claimed that no such marks
could be found.
