railroad tracks about a quarter of a

was made by the en:finDer of a freight
train who wonld have passsd over the
body, thereby concealing all evidenc
of n crime having bean committed, bad
it. not been that he was successful In
brinaing the engine to a atop before
striking the hody.
An alarm was promptly given and in
a short time several persons gaf.h'ir,id
to the spot among whom were several
of Boshar's friends. Tt.e body was
picked up and moved to one
side when to their astonishment of ail
the supposed dead man bcayedasigh,
lie was not dead as an examination
proved but mortally wounded and D0

tnat he made a violent struggle for his
life with Ine aiis til nuts but the uo of

work Weil. Tbe unfortnnato man ws
taken to bis home whor an examlnn

Acting on the advice of '.'oroner

County Detective Whslon has takn
charge of the case and is in hopes of
fastening the crime upon two younir
fellows of the neighborhood who have
since suddenly disappeared.
The motive of the murder is supposed
to be with a view of receiving a large
Miiouut of money which it ia said
Uoscher carried about him There are
mauy who think differently, as
Bosouer bud but a few dollars iu his
pockots, and a watch and chain, nil of

"The first thing I should do,'' said Will
iam judicially, "is what 1 would advise
any oau to do; tlx up my home a bit, make
a few improvements In the old place,
and then," impressively, ' then I should
travel.

already started ou his journeying, "I

Well, these are points he'll have to overcome, more or
less. However, his character is, to a certain extent,
unchangeable You can only modify, not radically
change, his faults.
The father of Frederick the Great thought his boy
was a blockhead up to tho tiun h3 wa3 16 years of
age, but he didn't stop educating him.
There's one thing that all great men have had, as boys,
as young men. They have had it given to them or they
have given it to themselves. Had they never had it
they would never have become great. They have had
education.
Your boy cannot possibly be anything, become any
thing, without knowing. The more he knows the bet
ter he'll be. Knowledge is power, riches, fame. You
want to do your duty by him? Give him a chance.
Teach him or let him teach himself. Give him education.
"Without books God is silent, justice dormant, natural
science at a stand, philosophy lame, letters dumb, and
all things involved in Cimmerian darkness."
If you give him books he will soon chose for himself
the subject in which he i3 most interested, which he
can most easily study. This study i3 the one he is most
fitted to pursue, tho one in which he will make the
most success. It is natural that it should be so.
You think: ''Books, ah yes. how many hundreds of dol
lars will I have to spendbefore he discovers what he
is best fitted for?"
True, but there's another way. Invest $4.50 and give
your boy the advantage of that greatest of all refer
ence libraries, the Encyclopedia Britannica. It will
place him on a par with the college graduate.
THE TRIBUNE EDITION is the best and latest edition
of this great work, with all its wealth of information
and education revised to the present time.
You have but 1 1 days in which to secure this great
work at $1.98 per volume and on easy terms of pay
ment. You will find the Encyclopadia Store at 437 SPRUCE
