sight behind the end of the stock car.
The rear breakman was in the bag
gage and smoking car, and the head
brakeman was in the passenger car
on the rear of the train, but neither
of them saw Mr.. Gould get onto the
car, and apparently he did not go in
side of the car at all.
THE train then proceeded ahead
for a distance of about 1880 feet
where the next stop was made and
some more ties unloaded. At this
point the section foreman missed
Gould, but supposed that he had re-
manned behind to straighten out some
ties. After this two more stops were
made and the balance of the ties were
unloaded. AS Mr.. Gould had not
then appeared Foreman Miller spoke
about it to the conductor who, offered
to back up the train and find Mr..
Gould. but Mr.. Miller decided to send
a man back on the velocipede car in
stead A man did go back on a We
locipede car, but did not find Mr..
Gould.
Train No. 106, after setting off
empty cars at Conant's Siding, pro-
ceeded to Old Town, arriving there
at IL A. NJ. After turning the engine
the train was made up as No. 105 and
proceeded to South Lagrange leav-
ing Old Town at 1923 A. NJ. The con-
ductor instructed the engineer to
watch out and see if he could see
anything of Mr.. Gould. On approach
ing Black Island Bridge, a distance of
$3.50 feet south Of the point where
the second pile of ties had been I'M
loaded and where Mr.. Gould was seen
to get onto the car, the fireman dis
covered Gould's body lying beside the
track. The body was lying at an angle
of about As degrees with the track,
head farthest north towards South
Lagrange with the feet next to the
rail and about seven feet distant on
the west side of the track.
THE body was lying upon its back,
but the clothing was not apparently
mussed up. and apparently the man
did not move after falling from the
train. There was small cut on the
left side of the head and two slight
bruises on the. left temple, and these

caused by the fall from the moving
train. The train was proceeding at
about 10 to u miles per hour at the
point where the body was afterwards
found. The body was picked up and
taken to South Lagrange and then
back to Old Town on the train and
delivered to the undertaken, Mr.. W.
c. Craig.
mo one saw this accident. and the
last time Mr.. Gould was seen alive
was when the engineer saw him get
ting onto the steps Of the car. APP
parently he did not go inside of the
car at all, but must have gone down
upon the steps of the car possibly
waiting for the next stop to be made.
We are unable to account definitely
for the reason of his falling, but the
following abstract from the report of
the medical examiner may perhaps
account for it:
Investigation showed that he had
fallen from the train while in mo-
ton. 1t is not impossible that his fall
or even death was due to heart fall
ure, but the shock and injury to CEN
trail nervous system causing death
could have been caused by the fall
from a moving train"

ADJUSTMENTS
Elaine Hammerstein Has New Role
in "Remorseless Love"

Supported by the best company Of
players with which she has ever been
surrounded, Elaine Hammerstein
comes to the Colonial Theatre today
in "Remorseless Love" There is also a
strong element Of renlorseless hate to
furnish plot and counter plot to the
pictured story Mary Lanier NIagrud-
er has given to the screon-for fam
lily hatred and a neighborhood feud
furnishes the impetus for the love in
terost.
Miss Hammersteins friends-and
they are legion-will see her in a role
quite different from the typical So
ciety girl she usually essays. She is
a country school teacher in Re
morseless Love"'and it is through the
love one of her boyish pupils has for
her that the plot is given its final
punch" as its climaxes in a sur
prise finish.-Adv.

William Farnum Here in Fox Super
Special from Its Big New York
Success

Perjury" a William Fox SUPER
special which was the talk of New
York While running at prominent
Broadway theatre will come to the
Opera House today for a two days'
run. 1t presents William Farnum in
role similar in several essential
respects to that of Jean Vatican in
Victor Hugo's Les Miserables." in
which this famous emotional screen
star made a tremendous hit. New
York reviewers and theatre goers,
during the run of Perjury" in the
metropolis, declared that William
Earnum surpassed all former efforts
in the expression of human emotion,
They predicted that ,the gripping
photodrama will establish itself per-
manently as one of the classics of the
screen.
Perjury" provides a supreme test
of William F'arnum's dramatic genius.
for in the role of Robert Moore he
runs the gamut of human emotion.
The hero first is seen as an active.
ambitious factory superintendent of
45, happy in his home life and in the
friendships which his engaging per-
sonality has won for him. Jealousy
and dread grip his mind, followed by
red rage and finally despair. Then
the prison gates close upon him for
twenty years, during which the in
herent gentleness and sweetness of
his nature develop in remarkable de-
gree. The family is left, outside pris-
on walls, to misery and pathetic
struggle.
For the picturizing of Perjury"
the enormous space at the Fox plant
in New York known as the little
studio" and part of the big studio"
as well, was turned over to the Far
mum company. Twenty-four separ-
ate interior sets We're erected for the
elaborate production, including a
large courtroom for the murder trial
scene.
The cast of Perjury" includes Sal
" Crute, Wallace Erskine, John Webb
Dillon, Frank Shannon, Frank ,Jov-
ner. Grace LaVell, Gilbert Rooney
and Albert Mann. Harry Millarde
directed the production.
And on the same program with the
above feature are a Mack Sennett
comedy Call a Cop" it is a riot of
fun. And the Kineto Review with its
interesting knowledge is sure to
please as we'll as the Opera House |

aged IS years. employed as yard
brakeman at Rumford by the Maine
Central Railroad Company, fell from
a car while making switching move
ments in Rumford Yard about els
P. NJ, on March %, 1922, and was in
stantly killed." says the decision of
the public utilities commission.
THE switching crew, with Maine
Central Switching Engine No. 1863,
was setting cars and making up a
train in Rumford Yard at the time
this accident occurred" continues the
decision.
Brakeman Spaulding was on top
of the car next to the engine passing
signals to the engineer. The engine.
with II cars. backed down on to the
main line and hitched on to four cars
which were kicked onto Track No. 8.
Brakeman Spaulding's body was
found about IL car lengths back from
the point where the hitch was made.
1.-THE investigation made after the
accident disclosed that all of the four
wheels on the right side of the car
next to the engine were spattered
more. or less with blood, and blood
spots were also found outside of the
track, but one of the legs was sew
cred from the body and was lying be-
tween the rails some distance away.
The inspection of the cars and en-
CINE made after the accident showed
that all of the equipment was in good
working condition. The train was
moving slowly at the time the acct
dent must have occurred, and appar-
emily all of the work that was being
done and all Of the movements that
were made Immediately prior to the
accident were accomplished in the
usual manner, and all Of the condi-
tons were apparently normal. The
night was dark but not stormy. The
evidence shows that there was some
snow on top of the car on which
Brakeman Spaulding was last seen,
but no snow on the running board or
on the brakestep."
