According to the new law

According to the new law
governing municipalities, which
went into effect the last of
March, the mayor of towns
does not have a vote on the
council except to decide a tie.
He is merely the presiding Of
ficer. However, the mayors
duties and responsibilities are
not made any the less, for the
great burden of administration
is laid upon him alone. The
council corresponds to the
state legislature, the mayor to
the governor. Unless duties
are specifically enjoined upon
the council, the burden is upon
the mayor, and he can take the
initiative in defending the
city's rights or enforcing its
laws without either the knowl-
edge or consent of the council.
The clerk is no longer an cleo
tive officer, but is named by the
council Woodbine Chronicle.

avoid prosecution. The action
of the three supervisors how

Committed Suicide.
Stranger Places His Neck On
The Rail of The N. G.. Rail-
road And it is Broken by
Being Struck by the
Cars.

Monday morning about 8 o'clock n
mourn ful tragedy took place in town
which was witnessed by a great many
people. -.
No. 5, westbound passenger, was
running in three sections, the third
section arriving about 7:30 o'clock
that morning and stopped for break
fast. Alter the train pulled into the
station a man named Albert Santo,
who was en- route to San Francisco
coming from Peoria, ILL.,, a~lighted
from this train and Immediately cross
ed over to the other side of the street
where he remained for a few minutes.
The N. G. train crew were busy at
work making up their train prepare
tory to pulling out for Austin, and as
Santo was crossing the street Engin-
eer Treat was backing down part OF
his train to couple OF to the coach
which was standing near the depot,
aud before the coupling was made,
Santo suddenly threw himself on the
ground aud placed his neck across the
rail and as soon as Conductor Ross
saw the man in his perilous position
he signaled TO Engineer Treat to stop,
and the emergency brake was applied at
once, but the train was not stopped
until the wheels Of the car had push
ed the mans head along the rail for
a few inches, breaking his neck. The
head was not mutilated only receiving
a bad abrasion en- the left side OF the
face.
The unfortunate man was immed-
lately taken to the Nevada Hotel and
all signs of life left his body before he
reached the hotel.
1t is the opinion that he was insane
for passengers on the train who trav-
eled with Santo from the East says he
made the remark that he intended to
commit suicide when the opportunity
offered, and at Denver and Ogden he
is said to have tried to commit the
rash act but was prevented from
doing 80 by those travelling with him.
From letters and papers found Oh
his person it is shown that he is a res
ident of Peoria, ILL.,; is a member OF
the Woodmen of the World, and also
belongs to the Amalgamated Sheet
and Metal Workers international Al
lance. Among his letters were found
two small csrds bearing the inscrip-
ton of Miss s. Westermann, 800 Olive

He was neatly dressed in a black
snit, had a gold watch and chain on
his person, 1924 rs IN greenbacks and
coin, \ railroad ticket from Peoria to
San Francisco and also carries II

oria.

of by ex-oficio coroner Judge +. A.
Limbaugh who has been instructed
by friends of the deceased in Peoria to
prepare the body and ship same there.
The body was embalmed Tuesday
by DIR. Pope and as SOON as he receives
further instruction the body will be
shipped forward.
Mr.. Limbaugh held IN inquest over
the remains Tuesday night and the

ance with the facts stated above.
