Se Sa a ST ES SEE SE aS Two men were killed by the M. K. & T. train, near Deerfield, in Vernon county Monday. Papers found in their clothing showed one was named Chas Brown, 21 years old, of Wichita, Kansas, and the other Allen Wilson, 20 years old, of Chicago. They are the same young men who were put off the Sunday evening passenger train at Deerfield. It is supposed. they stopped on the track to rest and went to sleep. The bodies were taken to Ft. Scott, Kansas. Thos. J. Wheeler, the veteran school teacher of the west part of the county, was a pleasant caller while in Butler Saturday.

Cason, who died at the St. Mary's Hospital in Kansas City Sunday afternoon, was brought to Butler on the noon train Tuesday, and interment was made in Oak Hill cemetery by the side of her mother. Deceased was a daughter of J. L. Cason and niece of Wm. Young, formerly in the livery busi- ness here. She was at one time tele- phone girl in the Butler exchange. She was 31 years old.
