Kansas Jury Investigates
Death of ]. H. Crouch
Train Crews Were Quizzed But Were
Unable to Place the Blame.

The coroner's jury has decided that
the late ]. H. Crouch, OF Dawson,
who was killed near Arkansas City,
Kansas, sometime ago, met his death
by being run over by train, but
could find no details of the tragic end
of the young man, as no witnesses
were found who saw the accident. The
following, clipped from the Arkansas
City Daily News, gives the findings
of the jury which investigated the
Young Dawson mans death:
THE investigation held at 8 o'clock
this morning BY Coroner A. E. Nor
ris, of Winfield, over the body of ].
H. Crouch, found dead on the Frisco
track four miles southwest of the city
early yesterday morning, threw little
additional light on the manner in
which the man met his death. Ac-
cording to the verdict of the coroner
Crouch was probably killed by
train and further investigation will be
made with respect to which train
caused the fatality.
Engineers Are Quizzed.
"a. Campbell, assistant superin-
tendent of the western division OF the
Frisco railway, of Enid, Okla, gave
the train numbers and engineers pass
ing the point where the body was
found, from about S o'clock Tuesday
evening until about O'Clock Wednes-
day morning, as follows: Extra num-
Der 552, south bound, engineer Stone;
number sos south bound, Ogle-these
two trains passing Tuesday evening;
Wednesday morning, extra 564, north
bound, Gehrean; 743 extra, south, Ga
briel.
"This last train went out of here
at $40, and it is believed that this is
the train that hit Crouch. All OF the
above engineers we're quizzed and re-
ported to the office at Enid. None OF
them saw anything, they testified.
"The assistant superintendent stat
ed that an inspection of the locomo-
tives of the above trains revealed no
indications of man having been hit
bv them, no blood marks or pieces OF
clothing whatever having been found.
Deputy Sheriff Testifes.
Deputy Sheriff Fred Eaton testi-
fed that he was called Wednesday
morning and informed about the dead
man on the track After making in
vestigation, he said from indications
the man must have been standing
about the middle of the track when
hit by a south bound train. His cap
was found in the middle OF the track:
Some of the mans limbs were carried
much farther on the track than the
body. contrary to what one might ex-
pect, the deputy sheriff testified.
"The testimony of Policeman A. w.
Fox who was detailed by Chief Bar
lev to 90 the scene of the accident,
Correspondent practically to that OF the
sheriff"

Central of Georgia
Saves Huge Sum by
Curling Freight Loss
Cooperation in Correct Packaging
And Marking Saves $4OO,OO0.OO
In Damages and Theft.

A reduction of 90 per cent in the
amount paid out for loss and damage
to freight has been brought about
by the Central of Georgia Railway in
the past two years, this item of ex-
pense decreasing 100000. In state
ment issued Thursday President Win
burn discussed the importance of good
freight service to the public. He said
that loss and damage claims are an
unnecessary drain upon railway rev.
enue and add to the nations trans
portation bill.
He pointed out some of the diff
fculties and hazards connected with
transportation, which are not usually
understood by the public. He explain
ed that special department is main
tanned to see that freight is properly
handled to its destination in the same
condition as it leaves its point of
origin. This is part of the service to
shippers that has resulted not only in
a reduction of monetary loss, but in
avoiding interruption to business be-
cause of damage and delay to ship
mentS
Acknowledgment is made of the
cooperation of shippers by correct
marking on bills of lading and pack
ages, by careful packing, wire strap
ping and the use of proper contain
ers. Mr.. Winburn pointed out that
insecure packing is an invitation to
theft.
Few railways in the country have
a better record in handling freight
than the Central of Georgia, but its
employees are pledged this year to
give even better service than in the
past and with the cooperation of the
roads patrons new efficiency records
are being established.

have been chief executives Of the
United States.
Mr.. Coolidge, a retiring, quiet,
withal friendly man, is unknown to
people here.
1t came, therefore, as a surprise to
the. average European to read the de-
scriptions Of "austerity, frmness and
iron-like will" as qualities of Presi-
dent Coolidge, and many thought the
new executive to be temperamentally
akin to former President Wilson. The
impression, coupled with the recollec-
ton that Mr.. Coolidge has never been
openly antagonistic to the League of
Nations, was a favorable one.

DAWSON ENDS SEASON |
WITH DOUBLE VICTORY
TWO FINAL GAMES ON HOME
DIAMOND ARE WON BY
VERY CLOSE SCORES.

Dawson won from Albany on Tues
day afternoon in the Dougherty coun-
ty capital by a count of II to 7. Both
teams were clad in their hitting gar
ments, and base knocks were plentiful
and continuous
Shaky Cain, the youthful hurler of
the Reed clan, was batted from the
box in the third stanza, when Dawson
tailed eight runs in a quick success
sion of hits and errors. Mitchell re-
placed him and finished the contest.
Pfeiffer carried on the hurting bur
den for the locals and although Al
bany touched him up for IS bingles
he breezed through the battle in fine

In the last game the Albany team

charges of Eddie Rawson by a score
of 7 to 5, and another game was
chalked up on the wrong side OF the
ledger.

DAWSON WINS TWO.
Dawson ended up the local season
in blaze of glory by trouncing Goat
Cochran's Blakely aggregation de-
cisively in two fast, well-played con-
tests here Friday afternoon.
The scores were close, but just close
enough to make both clubs fight hard
all the way and to keep the fans on
edge although the menu for the day
was a double bill.
The first game went nine innings
with Dawson on the big end of 2
to 0 count and Grunt Lucas applying
a heavy coat of kalsomine to the hard
wood bunch, Myer, visiting catcher,
being the only one who could con-
meet with Lucas slants.
Winn, Dawson's backstop, was the
hitting star of the fray besides catch
ing a heady game back of the rubber.
In the second battle, which was
scheduled for only seven innings,
Pfeiffer held the hard-hitting Blake
" gang in the hollow of his glove.
Several times he got in hot water,
due to various reasons, but he always
frightened up to such degree that he
was practically invincible.
With the score / all in the last half
of the seventh Sullivan connected
with one of Cochran's offerings and
parked it over the right field fence,
making the score 2 to l.
The whole local team put up a
fighting, snappy exhibition of the ma
tiona1 pastime, and with Grunt Lucas
at the helm they looked like anoth-
er club entirely. 1t is a pity that Luz
cas- did not have a chance to manage
the club longer, as he certainly deliv-
cred the goods in the short time that
he led the locals.
