annual state convention in Chat.

Friday in Huntingdon guest Of
the local legion.
Mr.. Whitman spoke Friday
night at the Methodist church.
He was introduced by Capt. Cor
don Browning IS some very ap-
propriate and fitting remarks. The
speaker took for his subject the
purpose of the legion and enumer-
ated the many good things for
which it stands. To bea member of
the legion you must be a one hun
dred per cent American. The
speech was certainly very timely
and along correct lines. The le-
gion can make itself a power for
good. and if it stands by its pnr-
poses it will do so.
1t is to be regretted that more
of our people did not hear the
speech. The crowd was small,
which was a very sad reflection
upon our people.

The home Of jim H. Kee, who
resides in West Trezeyant, was
discovered to be on fire early
Saturday morning. Miss Allie
Kee, daughter of Mr.. Kee, was
sleeping in the rear room and
when she was awakened by some
peculiar noise she soon found that
there was fire in the back of the
house and Immediately called to
her father, who ran into the cook
room and found that the flames
were running up to the ceiling
from the corner where the stove
was located, but no fire had been
kindled in the stove since the noon
meal was prepared the day before
and the origin of the fire is there
fore a mystery. Mr.. Kee had one
the incest homes in Irrelevant and
his loss is about $4,000, with
$4,000 insurance. But small
portion of the contents were saved
and the lighting plant house and
smokehouse and family provisions
were all completely destroyed.
Mr.. Kee will likely rebuild at

Several members of the train crew were injured, the list of injured in cluding a fireman, two mail clerks, Q negro porter and one passenger.
 The bandits blew up the mail safe and afterwards set fire to the ear and for a time the entire train was threatened with destruction. The car was detached from the rest of the train, however, after the bandits had left with their loot.
 The crippled train proceeded to Champaign, the nearest division point, and the alarm was given. The bandits were fully an hour getting the mail and during that time the passengers roamed the tracks not knowing what had happened. The bandits made their escape in autos.
 The bandits obtained only about s40O, according to postal inspect ors. They overlooked a mail sack containing s10O,00o. ..~
