Ike MCGOWAN, one Of the proprietors

dragged two men on the tracks in the

kicked onto the very track on which
the men had been sleeping. During
the early morning hours the two men,
who live In the city, visited the cafe
for an lunch of the handout variety,
They were both intoxicated and on the
whole rather tough looking customers.
Before leaving the lower floor of the
hotel about 4 o'clock Mr.. MCGOWAN
went to the rear Of the hotel, think.
ing that the men might yet be hang
ing around the premises. He was
surprised to find both of them fast
asleep on the yard track running back
Of the house. It was with consider
able difficulty that he got them
aroused. and they had hardly started
homeward before the yard engine
backed some cars into the yard on the
track which had been used bby them
for a bed. Had Mr.. MCGOWAN not
noticed the men 1t is almost certain
that the corner would have been given
