DEATH MYSTERY
STILL BATTLES
Body of Man Found in Bushes Near
Petersburg, Ill, Not
Identified.

Petersburg, Ill, Feb. 13.-Unab, 2
to find any further clue to the
identity of the man whose dead
body was found in brush pile,
south of Greenwich, Saturday,
Menard county officials today wired
Sam Bearson, Peoria hat dealer.
asking him to view the body and
attempt Identification. The hat
worn by the man bore Bearson's
stamp.
Many persons from nearby towns
viewed the body yesterday, but no
one could identify It, This develop
ment and the fact that the man s
hair had been dyed red, led county
officials to look for another expla-
nation, than accidental death. 1t is
believed the man may have been a
''yeggman" because of the marks of
an explosion on his breast, to
gether with the attempt at disguise
seen in the dyed hair.
The first supposition was that
he had been killed when struck by
an automobile. occupied by two
women. Foot prints of two women
leading to the mans body still per-
plexes the officials, and discounts
the "yegg man"/theory.

stringent rules against smoking by
co-eds, that such rules held it to a
minimum and that she agreed with
