HARLEY BROWN DIEP SATURDAY EVENING
Relatives Do Not Care for Body and Instruct That It Be Buried at County Expense.
Harley Brown, who fell from passenger train No. 3, which passed through Rensselaer at jmidnight Friday night, died in the depot at this place Saturday evening at about 6:10. Relatives who were expected to arrive here Saturday afternoon did not come and it had been arranged to take Brown, who had shown some imp rovemen t during the day, to a hospital at Lafayette, but he expired a few minutes before the milk train reached here, not having regained consciousness. In company with William Smith and Harold Dodd, two other young men of Ladoga, Brown was stealing a ride from Chicago to their home town. They were riding on the tender of the engine and ‘when the train reached Pleasant Ridge Brown tried to change his position on the tender and fell off. His companions missed him when the train reached Monon. Brown laid out all night, was picked up by the local freight crew the next morning. His feet and left hand were frozen and he was almost dead. He was placed on a cot and given the care' of physicians and others and seemed to revive some during the day.. His feet and hands and body were chafed and a few minutes before he expired there seemed some hope of pulling him through. Apparently he had suffered internal injuries, however, and death came suddenly at the hour stated.
Brown’s parents are dead and his aunt at Ladoga was notified and sent word to turn him over te the county authorities for burial. Undertaker Wright had the body removed to his establishment a few moments after death occurred and is being held there until some disposition is made of it. The law provides that an unclaimed body shall be sent to the State Anatomical Board at the state university at Bloomington and this will probably be done, word having been received from there this Monday morning that the body will be welcomed for purposes of dissection. Ther6 is no reason why the railroad should pay the burial expense and none why the county should do so. It would cost $39 for the county to bury him. Thinking that something may develop, Undertaker Wright is holding the body for a short time, but will probably ship it to Bloomington Tuesday.
Brown had served an enlistment in the United States Marines, having been discharged in 1910. He had a number of letters in his coat pocket, mostly froYn girls and one of these mentioned a similar accident that he had had soon after Christmas. It spoke of him being in a wreck. Brown had been employed as a cooper in Chicago and among other letters had one from the firm that had engaged him, stating that money for his railroad fare was being sent in advance. The letter was written on March 4th and probably he had been at work for the past week or two and was on his way home. He had been clean shaven, had a hair cut and had apparently taken a bath just before embarking on his bumming trip. His body was clean, all except his hands. He was a fine built man of 28 years. He wore two suits of underwear, four shirts, three pairs of pants —

Mr. Oain moved to a house on Cullen street belonging to Stewart Hammond. Mr. Babcock has just returned from the Fletcher sanitarium, Indianapolis, where he spent two weeks taking treatment for a nervous breakdown. The result was all that could have been desired and Frank returned home feeling like a new man. He wound up his stay in Indianapolis by attending the democratic state convention in company with his cousin, A. D. Babcock, of Goodland, and says he never saw such enthusiasm as was displayed by the democrats on. that occasion. Extravagant policies, high taxes, fat salaried new offices, an increase in the number of saloons and the whole partv doming ated by the Taggart machine don’t seem to have chased any of the old line democrats out of the game and Frank thinks that the only way that party will be routed this fall will be by a reunited party opposing themi

Telephone Achievements
Telephone Service of Today the Creation of the Bell Co,
In no line of human endeavor has the inventive brain of the scientist contributed more to the world’s progress than by the creation of the are of telephony, of which the Bell system is the em'bodlmeiTt. ’ When the telephone was born, nothing analogous to telephone service as we now know it existed. There was no tradition to guide, no experience to follow. The system, the apparatus, the methods—an entire new art had to be created. The art of electrical engineering did not exist. The Bell pioneers, recognizing that success depended upon the highest engineering and technical skill at Once organized an experimental and research department which Is now directed by a staff of over 500 engineers and scientists, including former professors, post-graduate students, scientific investigators—the graduates of over 70 universities. From its foundation the company has continuously developed the art. New imporvements in telephones, switchboards, lines, cables, have followed one another with remarkable rapidity. While each successive type of apparatus to the superficial observer suggested similarity, each step in the evolution marked a decided improvement. These changes, this evolution, has not only been continuous, but is continuing. Substantially all of the plant now in use, including telephones, switchboards, cables and wires, has been constructed, renewed or reconstructed in the past 10 years. Particularly in switchboards have the changes., been so radical that installations costing in the aggregate millions have frequently been discarded after only a few yeans of use. Since 1877 there have been introdued 53 types and styles of receivers and 73 types and styles of transmitters. Of the 12,000,000 telephone receivers and transmitters owned by the Bell Company January 1, 1914, none were in use prior to 1902, while the average age is less than five years. Within 10 yeans we have expended for construction and reconstruction an amount more than equal to the present book value of our entire plant. Long-distance and underground transmission was the most forjnidible scientific problem confronting the telephone experts. The retarding effect of the earth on the telephone current often impaired conversation thrpugh one mile underground as much as through 10 miles overhead. Overhead conversation had its distinct limitations. No possible improvement in the telephone transmitter could of itself solve these difficulties. The solution was only found in the cumulative effect of improvements, great and small, in telephone, transmitter, line, cable, switchboard, and every other piece of apparatus or plant required in the transmission of speech. While the limit of commercial overhead talking had increased from strictly local th over 1,000

Which of You Democrats Is The Press ’Ludin’ To?
Remington Press. The democratic county convention was held at Rensselaer Friday afternoon and a full ticket placed in the field. Some of the men nominated are very good citizens and well qualified to preside over the offices to which they aspire. Others are not so good, by any means, and will not poll a very heavy vote.
miles as early as 1893, it was not until 1905 that conversation could be had over long-distance circuits of which as much as 20 miles was in underground talking cables. By 1906 underground talking distance had increased to 90 miles. By 1912 it was possible to talk underground from Neiw York to Washington. It was then that the construction of underground conduits from Boston to Washington was determined upon—not that it was expected to get a through underground talk between those places, but in case of storm or blizzard, to utilize intermediate sections in connection with the overhead. Oilr persistent study and incessant experimentation have produced results more remarkable We have perfected cables, apparatus and methods that have overcome obstacles heretofore regarded as insuperable both to long-distance overhead and underground conversation. Underground conversation is now possible between Boston and Washington, four times the length of the longest European underground line. This enabled the 8611 System in the recent great storm, so destructive on land and sea, to maintain communication for the public between all the principal points on the Atlantic seaboard. < Telephone communication is established between New. York and Denver, is potentially possible between all points in the United States. and by 1915 will be an aecomnllshed fact between New York and San Francisco. In our use of methods or apparatus, we are 1 committed to no one system. We own, control . ; or have the right to use inventions necessary to < operate any system recognized or accepted as the most efficient. The Bell System must always recognize, and in its selection must always be gov- < erned by the necessities of a national service, 1 with its complex requirements, which is infinitely ! more exacting than focal or limited service. These achievements represent vast expenditures ' of money and immense concentration of effort I which have been justified by results of immeas- < urable 'benefit to the public. No local company ' unaided could bear the financial or scientific J burden of this work. Such results are possible ' only through a centralized general staff? avoid- ’ ing wasteful duplication of effort, working out < problems common to all, tor the benefit of all. The pioneers of the Bell System recognized that J telephone service as they saw it. was in the < broadest sense a public utility; that upon them ' rested a public obligation to give the best pos- * slble service at the most reasonable rates consist- < ent with risk, investment and the continued im- ’ provement and maintenance of its property. < Without this expenditure of million* and con- < centration of effort, the telephone art as it exists ' ’could not have been developed. ‘ < What we have done in working out these great < problems in the past should be accepted as a ' guarantee Of what we will do in the future.
