 Numerous proxies sent in by stock holders indicate that men financially interested are favorably impressed with the plan of the directors for changing the First National bank in to a trust company.

 The directors claim the bank as trust company will have greater op- portunities to serve local people as it will not be restricted in the loan ing of money. It will also have a chance to work in channels not per mitted under the national banking laws and it is thought the change will be of considerable benefit to the in stitution and the people served by it.

JOHN SIMPSON SHOT:
FUNERAL IS TODAY

The inquest in the case of John
simpson, the young man who met his
leath through being shot through the
head, a short distance from Moore,
Monday evening, was held at that
place yesterday, Coroner George Creel
County Attorney Frank Wright and
Judge Roy Ayers, a brother-in-law of
the decedent, Court Reporter Hal B.
Gibson and DR., H. H. Wilson going
down for the inquiry
The mass of evidence did not def
nitely decide the question as to
whether Simpson was the victim of
a murderous attack while on his horse,
riding to town, or whether he commit
ted suicide Both theories have sup
0orters, and if the mystery is ever
July cleared up, it must be through
future developments.
AS 1t stands now, money that Simp-
son was supposed to have had on him
and which was missing, is practically
eliminated from the case. Part of
this money has already been account
ed for and it may be accepted as
:ertain that If a felonious assault was
made, robbery was not the motive for
it.
Mr.. Morris, new witness, testified
that he was going along the road in
his auto and passed Simpson Monday
evening near the spot where the
wound was inflicted He spoke to
simpson, who was all right at that
time. few minutes after this Mrs.
McCullom, formerly Miss Kits, who
also knew Simpson, 6rove along in
her buggy and passed Simpson, who
was on the horse, but had then been
hot. Mr.. Morris and Miss Kits
were travelling in opposite directions
md neither saw any one along the
road.
Nothing whatever could be elected
n regard to the mysterious stranger
from Thermopolis, Wyo, who was sup
posed to have written Simpson very
many threatening letters.
Bert Shaw, to whom Simpson sold
his saddle Monday, repeated the state
ment made to him the day of the ira
gedy by Simpson in regard to these
threats, and Miss Olson and Allie Ba-
con told of Simpson pointing out to
them some man on the street in Moore
as the Thermopolis party who had
given him until Dec. l to leave Mon
tana or get killed. Simpsons state

CRUSHED UNDER
A LOCOMOTIVE:
J. MARcHOFF, SHOEMAKER AT
STORMWIND'S, VICTIM OF
FATAL ACCIDENT,
UNDERTOOK TO BOARD AN ENGINE

G. Marchoff, Bulgarian, SO years
OF age, was caught under switch To-
connective at the Milwaukee yards, just
south of town, about $3.50 Tuesday
morning and crushed to death. The
crew on the engine knew nothing of
the accident and came on to the de-
pot in town. The body was soon OBJ
served lying between the rails, how
ever, and Coroner Creel was notified
and took charge of it.
Marchoff, who had been employed
for some six weeks past at Storm
winds shoe repairing shop, resided
out in South Lewistown, near the Mil
waukee terminal, and had been in the
habit Of catching an engine every
morning and riding in to his work.
He was for quite while employed
with Milwaukee section crew and
was quite expert at stepping on the
engine. Tuesday he waited for the
engine to come along and undertook
to board it from the front, as usual
No one saw the actual occurrence, but
1t is evident that he made a miscal-
culation or that his foot slipped, as
he fell under the engine and was
crushed to death.
The decedent was a native of Bull
garla and leaves widow and three
children. one of these being married,
his son-in-law now being a Milwau-
kee section foreman. Marchoff was
a good shoemaker and an Industrious
man.
