BODY OF ILL-FATED
ENGINEER RECOVERED

The remains of Engineer Norris,
who was killed in the wreck on the
Burlington near Ophiem Monday af-
ternoon, were found this morning and
taken from the wreckage. They were
buried deep under the center of the
pile, indicating that the engineer
stuck to his post till the last. The
long delay in bringing the body to
light was due solely to the large
amount of wreckage that had to be
moved. There were three engines and
IA cars, most of the latter loaded,
piled in confused mass in the gulch
alongside the track Thus while it
was comparatively simple matter
to clear the track, it required time to
get to the bottom of the heap where
the body was found. The remains
were taken to Beardstown for burial.
The coroner's jury that investiga-
ted the death of Engineer McGlensey.
who also met death in the accident,
eXonerated Fred Thompson, the OPP
orator at Linn, from blame in connec-
ton with the deplorable affair.
Thompson testified that he had other
business at the time that the train
passed his station that absolutely
prevented his being on hand to give
out the orders that would have avert
ed the accident.

Although the season has been an un-
usually forward one in this vicinity
farm work has not progressed to an
unusual degree, and in fact season
of good weather is desirable to ena-
BILE the farmer to finish the spring
seeding. Many fields hereabout were
sowed to oats at the time the rainy
season began and the ground had not
been worked. In such cases it will be
generally necessary to SOW again, as
theSseed has begun to sprout on the
ground and the cultivation will now
be disastrous to it.

HIGH SCHOOL NOTES

The books for the play to be given
by the senior class as part of the
class day exercises came this morn
ing. Owing to the delay of the pub
fishers the students have had to post
pone their rehearsals. As soon as
those in the cast have time to learn
the parts assigned to them rehearsals
will be begun. The play is called The
Fatal Message" The story of the play
is as follows: y company of young
society people plan to present farce
before a select company. At the last
minute one of the young men who
had an important part is taken sick,
and it is impossible for him to take
the part. \ gentleman living in a city
about fifty miles distant is telegraph
ed to. and asked to take the role. In
sending the message the wrong lines
are given him to learn and when the
time comes for the play it is seen
that two of the men have learned the
same part. 1t is not discovered. how
ever, until the play is being given,
when the two recite the lines at the
same time. Each time their part is
called an argument follows, and of
course the speeches of one of the
main characters are missing. The play
throughout is composed of amusing
arguments and tableauX. Under the
able direction of Mrs. Clarkson the
students should be able to present
the play in a very creditable way.
As announced some time ago, those
who will take part in the play are Is
abel Osborne Myrtle Barber, Mamie
Miller, Anna Moeller. Thomas Clark,
Tom Mirfield, Albert Mueller and
Carsten Franck

shipping directions the track shoes
shipped at Galesburg the 4th have not
yet been received Manager Stone has
been unable so far to locate them.
This delay will greatly hinder the
boys, as they have only one week left
in which TO get in shape for the class
meet and it takes about that time to
get used to the shoes.

James Maucker. manager of the
football team for next year, is al
ready writing to the managers of
several schools regarding games. The
team next year should be the best in
the history of the school. Only two
men are lost this year, and, though
they are both first class men, there
are two promising candidates for
each position. Clark, quarterback,
and Cameron, center, both are mem
bers of this years graduating class.
The management hope to have
heavy schedule next year, and so are
asking the other schools to reserve
dates for. games.

THINK PRINCE RUDOLPH LIVES
People of Croatia Refuse to Believe
Him Dead.

People of Croatia Refuse to Believe
Him Dead.
The people of Croatia have strange
superstition concerning the late Crown
Prince Rudolph of Austria, who, it will
be remembered, died in such sad cir
cumstances at Meyerling in 1889.
They believe that he is still alive,
but that he is hidden somewhere by
his enemies, and, as they are now
almost in a state of revolution against
Hungary, of which they form a part,
they have just send petition to EN-
peror Francis Joseph, asking him to
make the prince their ban, or ruler.
The poor emperor, who was terribly
afflicted by the loss of his only son, is
much shocked by the request, but
nothing will persuade the Croats that
the prince is not alive, and that he
would not go and be their ban if his
enemies would let him.-Sketch.
