Drainage District Bonds
Purchased by Cairo Banks

The Drainage District bonds to
the amount Of $13S,S00 were yes
terday purchased by the Alexander
County National Bank, the Cairo
National Bank and the First Bank
and Trust Company, the first and
last named financial institutions
taking 40 per cent each of the
amount, while the Cairo National
Bank took 90 per cent, this ratio
in the purchase being mutually
agreed upon by the banks according
to other financial conditions with
the city being extended in this in
stance to cover the Drainage Dis
trict, as the two are almost INSOFAR

This sale with the cash, approxi-

treasurer of the Drainage District,
and the $4,000 in the hands of the

FELL THROUGH AN
Open TRAP DOOR
TO UNT|nELY END
Testimony Before Coroner's Jury
Brings to Light Facts of Wheel
er's Death.

Murphysboro, Ill.,, July 26.-That
Fred l.. Wheeler, the young sales
man for the Roberts, Johnson, Rand
Shoe company of st. Louis, met
death by falling from the open trap
door of a vestibule coach of the
fast Illinois Central train No. 207
Wednesday night near Vergennes,
ILL.,, was brought out in the testi-
mony before the coroner's jury
here.
The evidence was taken yesterday
morning. Conductor Zimmerman
told of seeing Wheeler get off of the
coach platform while the train was
standing at the Pinckneyville sta
tion, of talking with Morley. the por-
ter, after the train left that city,
of Wheeler entering the car and
calling to him, then going out, of
how he went to find Wheeler, and of
finding the trap door open when he
returned after looking for Wheeler.
Gorley's evidence was about the
same. The porter told of it being
his duty to'close the trap doors, and
said he did not open that particular
door at PinCkneyville. He said he
closed the open trap after Wheeler
was missed. ~" er ~
All of which tends to show that
Wheeler, after calling the conductor
for a talk, must have gone to the
side of the coach platform to look
out, perhaps to see if the train was
nearing Murphysboro, and fell out
to meet death.
The freight crew that picked him
up and brought him to Murphysboro
about $3.50 THURSDAY mornig, gave
their evidence They told of find
ing him unconscious beside the
track, of picking him up, etc.
lie was placed In st. Andrews
hospital on reaching this city
where he died shortly after 5
O'Clock Thursday morning.
Wheeler carried life Insurance
.pclicy for $r0, GOO and 1t contained
a clause saying that in case of ac-
cidcntal death on a common carrier
his beneficiary should receive double
that amount.
The young man, who was a travel
ing salesman for and stakeholder in
the Roberts-Jo -Johnson--Rand Shoe
Co, of st. Louis, and half owner of
the Dixon Springs summer resort.
will be buried Sunday at Marion,
Kan, where his mother and broth
ers live.
Fred Wheeler began on the road
when he was under age. He made
trips with his brother, Charley, his
partner in the Dixon Springs resort,
until he was old enough to take a
territory by himself. He was a
young man of exemplary habits and
well liked by all his acquaintanoes.

MILITIA COMPANY
GETTING CROONED
FORENCAMPMENT

With the state eneampment some
three weeks distant, efforts are be-
Ing made to bring Company X, the
local militia organization, up TO the
fun strength required for the pur-
| pose. and Capt. Arthur Thistlewood
and all the members are on the look
out for new recruits to be enlisted
between now and August II, when
the Fourth regiment goes in camp
at Springfield.
Company X has at present mem
bership of over forty, but the full;
quota should be sixty men or more.
During the past several weeks on
the regular drill nights quite
number of new men have joined the
soldiery and it is expected that
many more will avail themselves of
the opportunity to get into the COM
pany.
The event each year at Camp Lin
coin is much looked forward to by
the members, especially if they have
been there on a previous occasion.
There are many attractive features
OF the camp life, most especially
the strenuous morning drills, which
set up such an appetite among the
BOYS, making the mess tent with its
wholesome pork and" welcome
refuge
The soldier lads have the entire
a nd i'm
except at p. m, when they are re-
viewed at guard mount by the com
manding officers of the regiment.
The City of Springfield always ac-
cords a hearty welcome to the young
eters in khakiland The young fell

pleasure in visiting about the city,

ingg and other places of interest and

the spacious camp grounds. The
tpwnspeople come out in great
crowds to enjoy this feature and
their presence adds a certain So
cability to the occasion that is
appreciated by the guardsmen who
are away from homefolks.
The hogs find much innocent
amusement in perpetrating pranks
on the first year rockies. II is
a lauGhable sight to see one of the
"greenies' sent out for the khaki
umbrellas, the key to the cannon,
saber ammunition, or some other
uneXisting thing.
Company K will be the first COM
pany in the first battalion of the
regiment this year and the boys are
being put through rigid drilling to
be properly groomed for the honor.
This places the Cairo troopers in an
enviable pos tion, for the boys will
be the lead off" in the parades and
