saw Man Saturday Night.

Two persons along this road. told
Justice Burrows that on Saturday
afternoon they saw a man passing
along the road. He was stag gering at
the time, but they watched him and
he passed out of sight along the
road. One person remembered speak
ing to him, but received no answer.
II the dead man was the same one
who passed along the road, 1t Is evil
dent that he turned around and went
back cross country. He had just cross
ed creek in the Weirather place,
evidently, as the body was found
near this water.
The man is described as being
about so years old, five feet seven or
e.shA. inches tall. His hair was just
turning gray. He was smooth shaver,
and was dressed in sweater coat, only
partly worn, vest and trousers. He had
no overcoat. The other wearing ap-
parel besides the sweater looked as
though 1t had been pretty much worn.
The underc1othipg was found to be
fairly clean.

BODY LYING FACE DOWN
Believed That Man Died From Ex-
posure Saturday night or Sun

ternoon Along Road.

The body Of an unknown man, with
no marks OF Identification on his
clothes or in his pockets, was found
on the John Weirather place, mile
east Of Summityille, yesterday after
noon John weirather who was cut
ting wood on the place, said he had
been working there about an hour,
when he stopped to get his breath.
AS he looked up he noticed the body
lying there, face down.
MI Weirather notified some of his
neighbors who notified John G. Scott,
sheriff. James s. Burrows, acting for
Coroner Walt Clements, investigated.
and will hold an inquest tomorrow
afternoon at o'clock If Mr.. Clements
is unable to come to Keokuk.
The body was frozen, and It is
thought probable that the man was
frozen to death. There seem to be
no marks OF violence on the body.
The body was found face downward.

was doubled UP. There was trace
OF blood between the fingers

Initial K on Handkerchief.

The only article which might pos
sibly serve for Identification was a
handkerchief, brand clean, and in the
corner OF which was embroidered a
letter K. The handkerchief had new
er been washed, 1t was assumed, in
view of the fact that the stencil
marks from the pattern from which
this letter had been transferred were
still visible under the embroidery.
A pen knife also was found in the
pockets of the mans trousers. The
knife was covered with mud.
There were no marks on the cloth
ing, no store labels, and no scraps of
paper or anything to lead to further
Identification could be found in the
pockets Of the mans clothes.
Cold and Exposure Cause.
The body was frozen sti6, and this
fact coupled with the fact that what
was supposed to be the same person
was seen staggering about in the VI
cinity on Saturday night leads to the
belief that the man either died from
exposure or was stricken with heart
trouble. A sudden cold wave visited
the vicinity on Saturday night, and
the wind was high and the cold Sc
we're that night, and Sunday.
The Weirather place Is situated
about a mile east OF Summitviile, and
on a much travelled road. 1t fe
thought the man must have wandered
back OF the house and gotten in the
timber for he was not seen from the
front OF the houses.
The body was brought to the Grim
Minis and Chase undertaking rarlors.
An inquest will be held In the office OF
Justice Burrows tomorrow afternoon.

RECRUITING RECORDS

London, Dec. 11.-So great WAS the
eleventh hour rush Of recruits anxious
to enroll their names before the clos
ing Of the period set for the trial o.
Lord Deray's scheme that recruiting
officers could not handle the appli.
cants. and the war office announced
an extension OF the time until mid
night Sunday. with a possible further
extension until midnight on Wednes-
day. Ths time limit was to have
expired at midnight tonight.
While no DEFINITE hgures are ye,
procurable, rough unoficial estimates
are that Lord Derhy's plan has re.
suited In the enrolling OF 4.335.o0
men, added to the 100000 already
in the army when tbs plan was put
into operation.
This estimate ie based on = report
that between so and 90 per cent OF
the 100000 men between the ages
of eighteen and forty who had not
presented themselves before sthe intti-
alton OF the Derby plan have done so
since that time. From the estimate
must be deducted the men physically
