THROWN FROM 4 TRAIN
Neal Grose, sixteen-Year-01a Boy Is
Nearly Killed.

Don't push me or! Please don t
throw me OIL You're bigger than mel
Don't push me OF"
Crying words Of this kind in his de-
Iiriurn. and clutchtng at anything his
hands touched 16-year-old Neal
Crosse. is lying at Christ hospital, how
ering between life and death. He was
found on wednesday afternoon at the
west end of the Rock Island railroad
yards IN an unconscious condition by
two passing colored men. They noti-
fed the authorities.
The boys father lives at 622 Bran
ner street, and is employed at a local
hardware company. His name Is
George r. Crosse.
II the boy dies, case will be made
for the county attorneys office, for
his continual crying in his delir1um,
and piteous pleading to not be push
ed on, Is evidence that the boy was
thrown from a train.
He was found about three o'clock.
A short while before an eastbound
Rock Island train passed by that way
DR.. Keith, to whose hospital the boy
was first taken, says that If the boy
does not survive, he Will as coroner or
der an investigation, for he Is con-
WINGED from his delirious mutteringS,
that he was forcibly thrown or
train.
Young Crosse grabs at anything
his hands touch,' said the doctor this
morning. "as if he was trying to hang
on and prevent being thrown off the
train. At times he becomes very
much excited and screams. He rises
up in bed and has to be fOrcibly held
down It Is the best evidence in the
world that he met his injuries in that
way for 1t is on his mind, and since
he is delirious and keeps reit6rating
it, I feel convinced about the matter.
His injuries are very bad. While
7 can find no traces of a broken skull,
or no internal injuries from the fact
that he does not vomit blood, his ex-
ternal injuries are very serious. He
has been unconscious ever since he
was brought into the hospital. I am
unable to say whether he will recover.
He is simply lowering at this time be-
tween life and death"
If the boy dies, a very peculiar case
will arise. None of the local officers,
at this time, have any proof that the
boy was thrown from a train, from a
wagon or from any vehicle. They do
not know what time It occurred He
was lying beside the track when found
unconscious. DR.. Keith concludes
from his delirious raving that he was
has that on his mind says DR.. Keith,
and 1t is the best evidence"
But should death occur. then OF
course the boys evidence could never
statement from him when he becomes
conscious, as often occurs in instances
of this kind DUST before death.
Evidence would then have to be
sought in q roundabout way. The only
manner in which a charge of murder
in the first degree could be sustained,
would be to prove an expressed malice
on the part Of the person who is sup
posed to have thrown young Crosse
from the train. Otherwise the charge
would be manslauehter.
The physicians at Christ hospital re-
port that the boy is Improving

LESS OF SPEECH.
iReliEion of the Future to Consist More
OF Science, Says Prof. Foster.

-cnicago. June ministers from all
parts of the middle west yesterday lis
tened to Prof Geo. Burman Foster of
the University of Chicago, whose ad-
Nanced ideas in theology published in
Ine FInaltty of the Christian Relig-
lon," caused q recent storm of disap-
prevail among the local Baptist pastors
6roI- Foster set forth some of his the
cries in an address on THE Modern
Conception of Cod at the session of
the congress of religions yesterday.
God is transcendent in that he can
make things come to pass declared
Prof Foster.
s'God must be a consciousness and not
substance. Substance has passed
away. The conception of him as a con-
seriousness is more final and fuller It's
Infinitely richer. God must be thought
of as moral.
TO the modern man God is becoming
being. We cannot have an unfinished
existence and a finished God. But if we
do have this God must be a living God
and If God were living, unchanging. al
ways equal. 1t must be stupid life,
even for a God. The kernel of the mat
ter is not in the kind Of God, but the
experience through which the idea is
reached
All that is original, all that is essen
tial. is invisible. And the world as it
has come from its source is invisible
and transitOry. What we call life and
death belong to the invisible. Therefore
the essence of life as of death is eternal
" hidden from man. The origin of death
is the same as of life.
Religion in the future will consist
more of science and less of speech. Ira
ditions are rapidly perishing. The con-
ception Of God is in the process of be-
coming rather than being The essence
of man is the forward striving toward
a flying goal. Ideas are the servants
and the sign boards Ct the journey. AS
life and experience change the ideas
change. Therefore We cannot speak
definitely of God idea, though we can
confidently of the conception of the
word and the man"

Malt tonlcs as sold IN Topeka with the
