The identity ol the young man
who was run over and killed by a
train in this city a couple of weeks
ago has s:"t been learned, and it is
probable that it never will be known
who the boy's folks are. Citv Mar-
shal Connor received two letters
last week, one from Wynnewood, I.
T., and the other from Lexington,
O. I"., asking lor a description of
the boy. Tile letter from Wynne-
wood w as from a man who said that
he thought the boy might have been
his wife's step-son, and he gave a
good description of the young man.
The man wanted to kimw if the boy
was pushed off the train, and from
the tone of the letti r tlieee is a
suspicion that, the man had more tin-
idea of ihe merits of a damage suit
against the railroad company, rather
ti.an any desire to know what was
done with the boy's remains. This
man give the boy's name as Mack
Birch. The letter from Lexington
simply asked for a description ol
the boy, and nothing was said as to
whether or not it was a relative
making the inquiry. — Hennessey

lint our boys are doing much better
work than when they began the
season and we are greatly encour-
aged by the work now being done.
We yet believe when they practice
togeher a while, Kiel has the best
baseball team in the county. The
Parvin boys are a nice lot of men
woo are ever ready to show due
courtesy to their opponents. When
we arrived at Parvin Saturday, a
splendid dinner was prepared for
our boys. The ladies of that vicin-
ity had gathered at the Woodman
hall at that place and spread a table
with all the delicious eatable* of the
season. Soiie ot our boys had
taken dinner at home before wiart-
ing, but those who had not were
ushered into the spacious dining
hall, where they partook of the
bounteous repast. The magnanim-
ity and hospitality of the Parvin
people cannot be surpassed.
