SUDDEN DEATH OF VAN VLEET
DROPPED DEAD AT DAIRY FARM
OF W. 81. STONE.
Inquest Held by Coroner GuIick-Ver-
dict Of Jury Was Death From
Natural Causes.

Charles L Van VIeet, a farmer,
dropped dead Monday afternoon at
$3.50 CLOCK at the dairy farm OF ". r.
Stone, about four and a half miles
northeast OF GOOdland. DR.. A c.
Gulick, the county coroner, was at
once sent for. Arriving at the place,
ne took charge Of the body and order
ed its removal to the Bower under
taking establishment
Tuesday at 10 o'clock a. m an in
qest was held over the body The
jury were 3. +. Brown, L +. Cooper,
John Detmer, a Bowman, Jake Lem
mer and Pat COchrane. The witnesses
were Claude ShOles, John Entwistle
and r D Ross The verdict Of the
jury was died Of natural causes"
Dr.. Quick, in charge Of the inquiry,
diagnosed the case as heart failure
II was learned OF Jake LemmerB
who was a near neighbOr to Mr.. Van
Vleet for several years that he had
been nearly incapacitated for labor
for long time with asthma and heart
disease Many thought him inactive,
but the sequel proved clearly enough
that his indispOsitiOn was serious and
wearying.
Mr.. Van Vleet lived not far from
the Sergeant place, north and west
Of GOodland about fifteen miles, near
the north line Of the county. He is
survived by a wife and five children,
the oldest a boy in his teens. Be
cause Of his feeble health, he has had
q hard time Of il on his farm. The
family moved to Sherman county from
Decatur county about seven years
ago.
Mr.. Van Vleet was in GoodIand
Tuesday forenoon and expressed him
self as feeling unusually well. He
drove out to the Stone place TO pur-
chase some young calves. The farm
hands loaded the calves into his
wagon and assisted in tying them Sc
Curely. He was standing by the wagon
ready to start and was telling the men
how he managed the feeding Of the
young animals, when suddenly he
hesitated in the conversation and fell
headlOng to the ground, and was dead.
He was a man about 40 years Of
age. The family, thus suddenly be-
reaYed, deserve the sympathy and as
sistance Of our good people in the
county and doubtless will find friends
in their affliCtiOn.

SURVEY FOR new RAlLs

Gang OF Surveyors Were IN sbe1zz

Touches at North.

That the extension OF the Lenors

road from Lenora in Norton c0unzs
west to Denver viii be built seems
certain At least such g project s III

else the surveyors would not now Be

survey.
The survey line runs down int
lives in the northeast part Of this
county, was in town Wednesday and
gave the reporter Of this paper the in-
formation that the Missouri Pacidc
surveyors were in the neighborhood
north or him, running q line west
from LenOras and the surveyors told
him they were going to push the sur
vey to Denver. Mr.. Butler says that
last week during the storm the gang
OF workers stayed at the Callahan
week were making their quarters at
Archer's, a few miles across the line
in Cheyenne county.
The survey contemplates so far as
possible an air line to Denver from
LenOras as the two places are almost
in the same latitude. But barriers 70
railroad construction are serious In
Cheyenne county, and for that reason

the most part viii be in Cheyenne
county In the northeast part Of
Sherman the line Of survey dips down
from Cheyenne into this county for
few miles and then swings back north
again.
The surveyors are following the Old
survey OF fifteen years ago, when the
LenOra branch was extended on pa
per to Denver. There seems to have
beer a growing need Of the real exc
tension, and the prophesies that this
paper have made concerning the build
ing Of this important piece Of track
were not far wide o. the mark. This
road would run through & good
stretch of country, but the end for
which it is built is not for local busi-
ness. The southern line Of the Mis-
souri, Pacific runs into Pueblo, and
from there the road has track ar
r4ngements to put its train into Colo
radO Springs and Denver, but that
makes a round about way in getting
to the big western city Of the moun-
tains, and the Lenora extension would
Eive the Missouri Pacific a straight
shoot and put il upon an equal basis

traffic and long bauls acTO s. The coun-
