EXPERIMENT IN TRAIN WRECKING BRINGS LECTURE

- Two Boys on Probation for Derailing Crack Carrier.

CARLYLE, Ill, Sept. 3 (U. P)— ! "Two boys, John and Rober tSchaefer, 8 and 11 years old, today had admit- | { ted in Circuit Court that they wrecked the fast passenger train Diplomat near here Aug. 8 and | were ordered to report to the county | probation officer for a year. The brothers, sons of Lewis i. Schaefer, a farmer of near Carlyle, | ' told Judge Bernard Deeters yester- | day that they bolted a steel plate | across a rail “just to see what would | happen.” The train, crack passen- | ger carrier of the Baltimore & Ohio | = Railroad, struck the plate as it neared a highway overpass. The lo- | comotive and several cars were derailed, but no one was injured. Robert Schaefer, the eldest, said _ they had not realized what would actually happen, thinking the train would only mash the steel plate. Judge Deeters lectured the boys and then ordered them to report on the 8th of each month for one year to Miss Dora Quinn, county probation officer. He also informed them that they must stay off the railroad. Officials of the Baltimore & Ohio said they did not wish fo press the case. No written charges were filed against the boys. The State's Attorney said that course was taken in order to prevent humiliation to the | family. |

PANAMA CITY, Fla. Sept. 3 (U. | PP) —At least 12 members of the crew of the coastwise steamer Tarpon, which sank without warning in the Gulf of Mexico 40 miles off | Pensacola, Fla., were missing and believed dead today. Eleven were rescued last night | after Addley Baker, 29-year-old seaman from Mobile, Ala., swam for | 26 hours through rough seas to re=-| port the disaster to coast guards- | men. The bodies of Capt. William G. | Barrow, a gulf navigator for 40 years, and First Mate W. H. Russell, were recovered before darkness hampered rescue efforts. All of the missing were believed to be Negro deckhands. C. C. Merritt, cashier of the shipping company headed by Capt. Barrow, said he was not certain how many Negroes had been aboard the | 600-ton steamer, which had made | more than 1700 coastal voyages be- | fore it plunged suddenly to the | bottom of the gulf Wednesday morning. Collapsed on Shore { Baker,

It had listed badly, he said, and then “lunged forward.” “I grabbed a life preserver and jumped,” he said. “It was so misty and hazy I could only see those right around me. I could see the first mate trying to keep the | captain afinat.

A Graphic History of America for You

Here is the History of our America in a form you have never before seen—a Histo-Graph from the earliest Viking voyagers to the latest Supreme Court decision in 1937,

YOU SEE HISTORY AT A GLANCE BY ASS CIATION OF ONE EVENT WITH ANOTHER.

On a single large sheet, the story of every square mile of territory in America is portrayed with a graphic picture of how each State was formed; the story of the early explorations and discoveries; the formation of the thirteen colonjes; acquisitions of territory, and winning of the West. It is packed with statistics of population for each census; state capitals and areas, political changes, thumb-nail biographies and national events during the administration of each President; the rise of industrialism, mass production, literature, art, science, invention and political parties; constitutional amendmants; and origins of the earliest Ameri-

can c.ties in each State.

The Histo-Graph is to History what Maps are to Geography, or what blueprints are to the architect. At a glance you can locate any principal event in American history, and in the margin find out what was

going on at the same time in Europe.
