MANY KIND WORDS
Fer "Uncle joe" From His Newspaper
Friends and Acquaintance In
Southern Illinois.

Very generally the press Of South
ern Illinois has commented upon the
death of Uncle joe Steagala. and
in all cases regretfully, which shows
that the dcceased's name was perhaps
more familiar to people of this section
than were hose of few other men,
Words of kindly interest appeared in
the papers Of Vienna Harrisburg.
Mound City, Anna, Jonesboro. Contra
lia, Metropolis, Murphysboro, Du
Quion, Benton and other points. The
following from the Mt Carmel Reg
lister Is a fair sample;
The death of Uncle Joe Steagala
occurred in Cairo Tuesday afternoon
and it occasioned genuine sorrow
wherever the good old man was
known, and his circle of acquaintance
was very large. He was known by all
the politicians of the state, and there
was not railroad man in Southern
Illinois who did not know Uncle joe
He fed more men for nothing, and did
more acts Ct pure kindness than any
ten other men in Cairo He had big
heart and was ueyer known to do
little, or mean act. He belonged to
nineteen different orders His age
was GS years"
