May Prove Fatal.

Great Western passenger train No. 8
reached the union passenger station.
the discovery was made that Henry
Erickson, Is years old, who was re-
turning to his home at Mound City,
Kan, from a visit in North Dakota,
was not aboard. Erickson was ac-
companfed on the trip by his wife and
woman relative. The last they had
seen of him was when he left the
chair car sometime before st. Joseph
was reached, presumably to go to the
smoking compartment. His absence
created no alarm until the train ar
rived in st. Joseph, when a search was
begun The aged man was found be-
side the tracks a short distance from
Sheridan, Mo-, 40 miles north of St.
Joseph. unconscious. A doctor was
summoned and the injured man was
brought here. The journey to Mound
City was continued, with Erickson
still unconscious.
tt is presumed Erickson stepped
through an open vestibule door, and it
is feared he is injured internally and
can not recover.
