FAIR OAKS MAN ON A SPREE LOSES HIS CASH

William Baker, of Fair Oaks, Ind., who came to Kankakee Saturday for a spree, was found last night by Night Yardmaster Healey of the Illinois Central lying beside the tracks near the Huckins coal sheds. Baker was badly bruised up, his hip being the worst hurt. Whether he fell from a train or got on the tracks and was bumped off by an engine he does not know. Baker was brought to the police station Where Dr. Smith attended him. All his money was gone. When he recovers the city will buy him a railroad ticket and send him home.— Monday’s Kankakee Gazette.
