JOE FALLON
PROMOTED.

Joe Fallon, the local telegrah oper a
tor for the Henderson Route, has been
promoted and given place as station
agent at MadoIa, a new station on the
Extension, Is miles from Louisville.
Mr.. Fallon took charge the first of
May. He has moved his family there.
Mr. Fallon entered the service OF the
Henderson Route as AN office boy at
the local depot. Here he learned tele-
graphy and was rapidly promoted,
having held several responsible posi-
tions before accepting the position at
this place. He is a young man of
merit, a and hard worKer. He is very
popular here, this being his home town.
His services at the local depot, though
covering but few months, have leas-
ed the patrons of the road, Joe always
showing the incest courtesies even in
rush hours.
The vacancy created by Fallon Will
be filled by Mr.. Vivian Pierce of this
city, now in the service OF the COM
pany at Louisville IN the General Off
ces. Young Pierce, while not out of
his teens has proven himself a good
employe. In fact he made good
wherever Henderson Route has put
him and the accepting of the positi on
mado vacant py Mr.. Fallon means a
promotion for Mr.. Pierce over any
place he has yet held with the Hender-
son Route. Pierce also started in as
an Office boy at the local depot.
Hovious Behen who is the Agent at
this place and under whom MIR. Pierce
will work is another of Cloverport S
self made young men. Behen starting
in as Office boy here, learning tele-
graphy and serving his time at the
lesser points on the road came back to
Cloverport and has served the COM
pany faithfully as telegraph operate r
and now as Agent. Mr.. Behen filled
the vacancy created by the resignation
of Mr.. Fred Ferry few months ago.
The success of the boys who started
out under Mr.. Ferry reflects credit up
on him as being a man who knows.

One of the most horrible deaths that
has occurred in this county for many
years was that of little is year-old
Bennet Ellis, nephew of VIM. Gum
ingham. of Stephensport. on last
Thursday about 5 p m.
Young Ellis was out in the field
about halt-mile from the barn. and
when evening came it is supposed he
was releasing the horses from the plow
and while doing this was caught in
the traces and could not free himself
The horses became frightened and
ran, dragging the boy a half mile over
the rough field to the barn, thus kill
ing him. His twelve year old sister,
who was at the house, which is not
far from the barn, saw the horses com
ing and started TO the barn to open
the door for them. thinking that he r
brother had turned the horses loose. AS
the horses drew near she saw the tat
tered, bruised body of her brother
hanging to the traces about the ami
mails The boy face was cut up bad
ly and his nose split open. His neck,
right arm and right leg were broken.
One foot was tied up-in the trace ana
by this he was dragged to the barn.
The boy was bright young lad and
Will liked. Both he and his sister were
orphans.
