M. L. Melson, Missouri Pacific
roadmaster on this division was in
stantly killed Saturday morning just
tins siue ol the u street crossing
south of town iJjen his motor car
collided with fne engine of the pile
driver work train.
The engine with nothing but a ten
dor attached was backing out from
Avoca" bringing workmen out to the
bridge on which they were working.
The crew were not conscious of hav
ing reaped their grim harvest of
death until they stopped at the bridge
and discovered the wrecked motor
car still clinging to the rails and
partly telescoped upon the tender.
They immediately rushed Lack to
ward Avoca and found the badly mu
tilated body of the roadmaster at the
curve just north of the O street road
crossing.
It is presumed that Mdson was
hurrying to get into Avoca in plenty
of time ahead of the north bound
Omaha passenger and as lie had plen
ty of time for that, thought there
was no other danger. It is thought
hik might een have been sitting with
his back to the wind thinking there
i was nothing to be on the look out
for. In fact it was a very unusual
thing for the work train to be cut
on the line until after the passenger
had gone through and they made
the trip this, particular morning just
to take th? workmen out and were
to hurry leak to Avoca immediately
to clear for the passenger. Ji the
roadmaster had been traveling under
orders the accident probably would
have been avoided. However, he left
Weeping Water before the operator's
Mine to come onto the job.
. The body was taken to Avoca and
placed in charge of our Weeping Wa
ter undertakers until that evening
when it was shipped via Auburn
where his home was. to the old home
of both himself and wife at Monroe
City. Mo.
In his immediately family he leaves
only the wife to survive him. He
had been roadmaster on this division
for three years. He made his terri
tory much of the time on the trains
and only a shcrt time ago in speaking
to railroad men here about his nnitor
car remarked that it "would be the
death of him s -:111c cf those days."

ENJOYS HALLOWE'EN
Splendid Time is Had at Annual Hal
lowe'en party Held at the Church
Parlors Thursday Evening.
The Hpworth league enjoyed a
very delightful time at their meeting
on Thursday evening which was in
the nature of a Hallowe'en social
and one that was enjoyed to the ut
most by everyone who was present.
The church parlors, which were
the scene cf tfie pleasant gathering
had been very tastefully arranged
with the decorations of the Hal
lowe'en season, in a color scheme of
black and orange and carrying out
the spirit of the occasion in a very
pleasing way.
The evening was given over to a
delight fill program of games as well
as musical 11 umbers and recitations
that served to pass the time most
delightfully. Instrumental numbers
were given by Mrs. John T. I.yon
and Miss Helen Wescott as well as
Edgar Wescott in a drum solo while
vocal selections were given by John
I.von, Rev. A. V. Hunter and Jesse
Perry. Miss Gladys Elliott and Mrs.
Triverly were present and favored
I he company with two splendid
readings.
The program had been arranged
to include many of the well known
Hallowe'en games and bobbing for
apples as well as the rendition of
ghost stories served to keep the mem
bers of the party in a very merry
mood until the hour for departure
homeward.
Miss Velma Elliott, 4th vice-president
of the league had arranged the
entertainment and in the serving of
the refreshments of apples, popcorn,
doughnuts and sweet cider, was as
sisted by Miss Freda Otterstein.
The gathering was one of the
inovt delightful that the society lias
enjoyed for many months and it was
with regret that the members of the
party witnessed the passing of time
that brought the pleasant gathering
to a close.
