His skull is fractured and both legs
are broken.
Orville was KILLED instantly when
the boys were struck by the engine
of freight train on trestle short
distance from here.
Bernal Butcher, 10, also caught
on the trestle, escaped injury, but his
father was so hysterical over the acct

oldest son escaped.
The three sons walked upon the
railroad track, leaving their father
in the road parallel TO the tracks.
Butcher said he did not hear the
train whistle until it was bearing
down upon his boys, who were in the
middle of small trestle spanning
stream about twenty feet below the
tracks.
Leonard saw the danger of his
little brother, turned and ran back
to him in an effort TO saye his life.
Then the engine struck the children
and threw them to the end of the
trestle

Washington, April 14.-Progressiyes
in the next Congress will demand leg
islation or constitutional amendments

Court of its power to declare unecnsti-

Senator LaFOllette, Wisconsin,

Senator Norris, Nebraska, member
of the group, have already blazed the

passing a lJy after the court has beld
it unconstitutional, can override the

Norris would provide thai the court,
