where the b. e. o. local physician,
DIR. N. r. Eastman, pronounced the
man dead. The remains we're then
taken TO the Chappelear morgue
The parents of the young man in

the father, Mr.. Charles G.. Fisk, ar
rived in Mt Vernon Sunday morning
with an automobile ambulance from
Newark and conveyed the remains TO
the latter city where the funeral will
occur on Tuesday.
Wayne G.. Fisk was born September
Is, 1890, at Newark, o., and is sur
vived by his parents, Mr. and Mrs.
Chales G.. Fisk and two brothers,
Jesse II. and Rupert B., all of New
ark. Fisk had been serving as a
brakeman for but two months, hither-
to having been in the Offices of the
company. From a desire to be out
of-doors more, he got job as brake
man and Immediately showed much
ability along that line, having been
head brakeman on the train on which
he was working when the accident oc.
Cured. Though not very we'll known
on the road, he was well-liked by the
few who had come into contact with,
all characterizing him as having a
very sunny and cheerful disposition
Just before the freight on which he
was stationed left Mt Vernon Sunday
morning, he called up to the fireman
and said "Aw, what are you shovelling
coal for, brakin's the only job on this
road"

MATCHES
In Tennis Saturday Afternoon
Excellent
-Four Good Contests We're
Played Off

The tennis matches in the third
| annual Knox Co. tennis tournament
attracted a large and enthusiastic
crowd to the Round Hill tennis court
Saturday afternoon. All of the
matches played were well-contested,
though no sensational playing was
displayed.
The first match of the afternoon
was between Michael and Mitchell
Michael, who covers an enormous
| amount of ground for a man of his
build and who returns nearly every
thing, took tthe first set by the score
of GA. He started in easily on the
second set and apparently had his
younger and more agile opponent de-
feated, when the latter stiffened and
won out by the same score as the pre-
ceding SET 1t was with interest, then,
I that the third set started. Michael, i'm
proved greatly and also appeared to
have more endurance, finally winning
| the set and match, GA.
Russell Levering and Daniel Houck
were next scheduled Levering did not
have much difficulty in winning 60
and 6-2, though Houck put up pret-
ty battle the first part of the second
set.
| At three o'clock Harold Walton of
Gambler and John Gotshall met. AS
was anticipated, the match was very
close. Gotshall has not been playing
much tennis this season and conse-
quently had little control over his
STROKES" which he wisely soon
abandoned, playing straight tennis.
Walton won out by the scores of 7-5
and GA
At five o'clock the first set of the
doubles was played, Stoyle and Sapp
defeating Adams and Weida, the lat
ter of Gambler, in straight sets, St
and 6-1. The latter team, the mem
bers of which are mere youngsters
looked good from the very start, as
they seemed not the least bit feezed
by strong drives, returning them with
marvellous accuracy. Then, again
Stoyle and Sapp seemed rather care
less of their shots, evidently feeling
, that the match would be walk
away" When the score ran up tt
deuce in the first set, they changed
their minds and only by careful play
ing were able to win out. They KEEP
up the same style of play in the sec
ond set and had no difficulty whatso
ever in winning.

To Cross The Main Track

And Was Struck By An East
Bound Freight, Dying 45
Minutes Later

Wayne X. Fisk 22, of Newark, O.,
brakeman on the 3. G. o. railroad
was killed early Sunday morning at
Knox siding, north of Mt. Vernon, be-
ing struck by the cylinder head of the
second section of freight No. SO. The
accident occurred at I o'clock a. m.
and the victim was immediately hur-
ried to Mt. Vernon, dying In the Ca
boose just as the train pulled into the
local B. G. o. station at t:45 a. m.
Engine No. 2S17, on which train
Fisk was head brakeman, had pulled
into Knox siding, going west, to
wait for an east bound freight, No.
SO which was scheduled to pass at
that point. In company with Conduc-
tor Jenkins, Fisk was standing on the
other side of the main track from his
freight, waiting for No. 9S to pull
through. The two were engaged in
conversation when the lights of No.
9S loomed up. Knowing that their
tioAh WOuiu oShit ihoIuhtlyy bOtii
started across the main track, Jen-
kins ahead. The latter got safely
| across but Fisk, for some reason that
will never be known, was slow.
Whether he was momentarily fascin-
ated by the glare of the headlights
is only a matter of conjecture.
However, the train caught him in
the middle of his body and he was
tossed to the side of the track. AS
soon as possible the train was stopped
the engineer having seen Fisk hold up
his lantern as If to brace himself for
| the shock, and the crews Of both
trains ran to the injured mans aid.
1t was found that he had been struck
in the temple, his skull fractured and
his jaw-bone broken. Also he was
badly cut on his left side and his left
hip bone was broken. From his hard
breathing, it was thought that there
were internal injuries.
In order to save time, the engine
from the train on which Fisk had been
braking and caboose were detached
and Fisk was put in the latter car
A telephone call was sent to the local
B. and o. station for ambulance ser
vice and the freight started back tc
the city. On the way back, Fish
seemed to be IN much pain and con
stantly complained of the difficulty
he had in getting his breath. Al
was done to make him as comfortable
as could be, but it was seen that suef
efforts were in the nature of being
desperate, as the man had not long t.
live. Just as the train pulled int
the station at Mt. Vernon, Fisk agail
complained of not being able t.
breathe and, in few moments, ceas
ed to breathe altogether
The waiting ambulance hurried tn
