Evansville Man Killed by the Train

Struck by train near the small vii
lage of Fellows, a young farmer by the
name of George Carlson was ground
under the cars and badly mangled early
Saturday morning. Although at first
his identity was unknown, papers in
his pockets developed clue which led
to the positive recognition OF the I'M
fortunate man.
AS soon as the accident was noticed
the train was stopped and members of
the train crew and some of the passen-
gers went to his assistance. Nothing,
however, could be done for him as he
had died almost instantly from the
fierce mangling which he suffered. His
badly crushed body was picked up and
placed in the baggage car and taken to
GAINESVILLE where it was conveyed to
Ryan's morgue.
In his pockets were discovered a
leather purse containing S5.25, and a
contract drawn up between the United
States Sugar Beet company and Mrs.
Louis Hall of Evansville. Using this
clue the officers made inquiries at Ev
ansville and Fellows and learned that a
young farmer by the name of Carlson
had left his wife and children on the
night before without informing them
or the neighbors whittier he was going.

Obituary.
JOSEPH SPENCE.

Joseph Spence, a resident of Rock
county for over sixty years, the largest
part of which was spent in the vicinity
of Cooksville, passed away at the home
of his sister, Mrs. B. HardWick, near
Edgerton, about $50 a. m. on August
3d. Death came following an illness of
about three weeks.
Mr.. Spence was born in Yorkshire,
England, in the year 1885. When boy
of ten years he came to the United
States with his parents who settled in
Cooksville, Rock county, Immediately
upon their arrival in their adopted
country. 1t was here that Mr.. Spence
received the greater part of his educa-
ton and training, and after the death
of his parents he remained on the old
homestead and personally attended to
the duties of the farm. His wife died
a number of years ago, when he re-
moved to GAINESVILLE and purchased
farm west of that city, where he lived
for several years. Later he made his
home with relatives in that city and
with his sister, residing near Edgerton,
at whose home he died.
AS one of the older residents of the
county, Mr.. Spence had witnessed it's
growth and prosperity and was vitality
interested in its progress. He had
large circle of friends among the older
citizens with whom he had helped to
shape the destiny of his community and
the county.
He was married in December, 1876,
to Mrs Martha Hardwick Watson of
Ailsa Craig, Canada. His wife died on
Aug. 5, 1873. After her death he made
his home with his sister, Mrs. B. Hard
wick of Stebbinsville. He was man

ever ready and willing to help those in
sickness and trouble.
He left no children but is survived by
one brother and four sisters: Mrs.
Thomas Little and Mrs. Walter Little
of GAINESVILLE, Mrs. Henry Thompson of
Stoughton, and Mrs. B. Hardwick of
Edgerton; and Bartholomew Spence of
GAINESVILLE. He also leaves a large num-
Der of nieces.
The funeral was held from the Hard
wick home Sunday afternoon. The
Acme quartette of Stoughton, consist
ing of Messrs. Ray Anderson, Claire
Currier, Henry Olson and DR.. F. c.
Henderson, furnished the music. The
services were conducted by Rev. Her
itage of Stoughton. Interment took
place in the Cooksville cemetery.

were Mr.. B. Spence and daughter,
Mrs. Hannah Greene of GAINESVILLE, Mr..
and Mrs. John Spence of Chicago, Mr..
and Mrs. Willard Heddles of Madison,

Farm Home Destroyed by Fire.

The farm residence on the old John
Simonson place, now owned by Nels A.
Nelson, in the east part of Albion, was
burned to the ground last Thursday
evening with the entire contents.
Mr.. Nelson left the house in the early
part of the evening to care for horse,
expecting to spend the night at the
barn. A short time after the family
retired the kitchen was found to be on
fire and their first thought was to
arouse Mr.. Nelson at the barn, but
finding no lantern lighted there sup
posed he was back in the house, and
the time spent in looking for him al
lowed the flames to get so good start
that it was impossible to save anything
from the building. Had the doors been
promptly closed considerable of the
household effects might have been got
ten out, but only such clothing as they
had on at the time was secured The
house was two-story brick structure
on which was carried $500 insurance
in the Town of Albion Co. and about
$500 on the contents, so the loss will be
a severe one to the owner who bought
the place about four years ago. A new
piano bought a few weeks ago was not
covered by insurance. The origin OF
the fire is. unknown and there was nc
fire even in the kitchen stove since sup
per time and the lamps were extin-
guished when the family retired.
On Sunday last members of the two
ladies' societies of the Koshkonong
churches with number of friends
gathered at the Nelson home, bringing
donations of clothing, family supplies
and money to the value Of several hun
dred dollars, for which Mr.. Nelson de-
sires The Reporter to voice his most
sincere thanks. He also feels under
great obligations to the neighbors fol
their assistance during the night of the
fire.

The new State Highway Commits
sion has given out a table showing
what amount each county is entitled to
receive from the $3.50, 900 highway fund
available for distribution in 1912, under
the provisions of the new law passed
by the last legislature and numbered
Chapter 337. Dane county's allotment
was Sic, 205, and is based on the per-
centage of state tax in 1911. Rock
county will receive $40, 1876 as its share
towards the construction of permanent
roads in 1912.

Prof. Richards gave one of the pref
test balloon ascensions ever witnessed.
There was no wind and the balloon
went straight up until the parachute
was cut loose and the professor came
down within 200 feet from where he
started.
The hobble skirt race was also an
amusing feature, when a half dozen
young men fancily dressed in hobble
effect competed for the prize offered in
hundred yard race.
The dance given in Academy hall in
the evening, attended by about $50
couples, brought to close one OF the
big events of the year in Edgerton.
The management has reason to feel
gratifed at the successful termination
of the 10Th annual picnic as the finances
will doubtless show a good balance
when all bills are paid.

T. A. & B. EVENT A SUCCESS.
Good Weather, Good Races and Good
Crowd.

The 10Th annual Picnic and Races OF
Father Mathews T. A. & B. Society,
held Wednesday, like most of it's pred
ecessors, was a success. The atten-
dance, however, was a little short OF
some other years, owing to the threat
ening weather of the early morning
and also the rather unfavorable crop
prospects in this locality of the state.
There were about $500 paid adult adj
missions at the gate, while the crowd
upon the grounds was estimated to ex-
coed 1000 people. 1t was an orderly,
good natured assembly, well satisfied
with the program of entertainment Of
fered.
The morning game of ball between
the Deerfeld and Beloit teams proved
an alternate mixture of brilliant plays
and coarse work, both with the stick
and in the field. ABBY, the phenom-
email Deerfeld pitcher, was in the box
for the first inning but after Beloit had
scored TWO TuIlS was IeploCcu AoA 0io
game. The score of to II in favor OF
Deerfeld indicates that the game was
hardly up to expectations.
The program Of races, however, was
one of the best ever seen on the track.
There was good field of horses and
the events all closely contested and in
teresting. The track record was also
beaten in time. The following is the
summary:

OKLAHOMA CITY, Dec. THE
case against Abner Davis, formerly
president of the now defunct Night
and Day bank of this city, charged
with making false entries on the
books of the bank with intent to
deceive the state banking board, was
begun today before Judge Clarke in
the district court. The entire day
was consumed in the empaneling OF

The indictment Of which Davis is
now being tried Is founded on an
allegation that he made entries show
ing the bank to have $4,000 on de-
post in the Kansas City Night ana
Day bank. which was false and made
to conceal the real condition of the
bank. Davis claims that the entry
was made with the knowledge and on
the advice of the bank examiner.

a similar charge but has not yet been
sentenced.
