MONDAY, AUCUvT 2, 1" 3 THI MATTOON DAILY JOURNAL-GAZETTE AND COMMERCIAL STAR r' rou i Mussolini Hushes to Sick Daughter biae ZAIiGVILL, JEWISH A cute little youngster of seven years old bad all he could want In the world, I am told. He got all be craved for, dqsplte the expense. His dad, to they say, had more money than sense. A homewhere a nurse-maid waa aver at hand, and one that, of course, was the last word In grand. Quite petted and pampered, this poor iittla elf.

He never was made do a thing for himself. And elotheaT He had more than bs ever could wear, or mora, by a long than any kid's share. With such things on bsnd, It Is, safe I say that, they made him' change garmente 'bout four times a day. A pool all bis own built right Into tha ground, wss where the kid swam with no other kids 'round. Tba servants, of course, kept their eyes on the child.

A towering fence never let him run wild. With nothing to wish for. with all dreams brought true. With guard-eyes upon him, whatever he'd do, yon might think blm happy, as happy can be, but frankly, a POOR little rich child is he. married Miss Effle A pucker ot Mat- toon, the ceremony being performed In the old Everett bouse, now the city building.

Three children were born to thorn, all living. They are Mrs. Nolle Brldgeman ot Seattle, Harry Fitch of Indianapolis, a passenger conductor on the Illinois Central running between Indianapolis and Effingham, and Mrs. Hattle Key-nolds'of Mattoon. Mrs.

Fitch passed away in 1923. "When I worked tor the old 8t L. road, ws did not hava.ihe conveniences we have now. The track was laid on the dirt, and In the rainy season used to sink down In the mud. When ws out on a trip, wt used te wonder if we would get back that week or not," said Mr.

Fitch. "Many a time I carried ashes from the engine to scatter on the running board on top of the freight cars when they were covered with ice, so we could get out and put on the hand brakes, "It was the same on the old P. D. ft E. The equipment was poor and the track rough.

It used to be a feat to walk on top ot a moving freight car without being thrown oft, as the cars swayed as they passed over tha sags in the track. We used to leave Mattoon for Evansvllle at a. m. and arrived at Evansvllle at a. the fm- liMUIp snd his fsmfly are' visiting In California.

Mr. Fitch's career la a unique one.

"When I was a lad of four years I in wafrtixnv father with envy. ntinr to ride on a train like be did, and vowed when I grew np I'd be a railroad mn." said Mr. Fitch today, as he recounted soma of the happenings In his life. When fir years ot age, the elder Fitch resigned from the railroad ser vice, and the family moved to Maples, lnd.

the father engaging In the man' ufacture of staves and heads for bar rels. As soon as he was able, young Joe went to work in the factory and as he made staves be nursed the dream of a future Ufe as i railroad man. This continued until Joe passed his fifteenth year, when an event took place which changed his destiny, and hastened the fulfillment of his dream his father's factory was de stroyed by fire. There being nothing to do In the Tillage la which the family resided after the stave factory was gone, Jos went to Anderson, lnd, where he worked in a stave factory. About that time a number of young men were going west, and he decided to do likewise.

Therefore, In September, 1878, he came to Mattoon and landed a Job as brakeman with the old a St. road, which is now the Big Four. After working as a brakeman for a short time, he entered the car accountant's office aa a clerk. This office was then located north of the old Essex House, standing about where the Roseboont broomcorn warehouse now stands. In 1880 the office, was moved to Indianapolis and Mr.

The proceeds of the sale were $1,765. The reason for the change In the usual time was the hot weather and the busy season not permitting a very large attendance. It Is probable that in the future the farmers will hold their sales in this ray.

that Mr. Fitch performed for his pas sengers. "While I regret that I must leave the service, ss It is a part of my very being to ride on a passenger train," said Mr. Fitch, "yet. hi another way I am glad It is over.

I have led an active life and "a rest before I pass on will do me no harm. But there will be nothing that can take the place. that can bring me more Joy than when I can take a ride once In a while on an Illinois Central passenger train. I have nothing but Jhe kindliest feelings for the officials of the Illinois Central. They are a lot ot men on whom one can rely.

It Is my wish to extend to them my best regards and a hope that the Illinois Central will always live up to the ideals ot right which were adopted with the-re-or-ganlzatlon of the road" Sentiment In Poem. Mr. Fitch has a sunny disposition. He sees only the bright side of life snd believes In giving credit to the for the good deeds they do. This sentiment is perhaps best expressed in the following poem, which Is one of many composed by Mr.

Fitch and one of his favorltes If yon have friends and loved ones Who are In the midst of the frsy, Smooth out their frowns and furrows By giving them flowers today. Friends have trials and troubles: And are beset with, cares, you say, Won't you light np their pathway And give them some flowers today? WhatTlo death are kind sayings. When friends can no longer stay? Naught can avail after 1 parting So give them flowers today. Ton may have wife and children, And some day they will pass away, So be true and speak kindly, And give them some flowers today. Closed eyes can't see the lilies: Cold hands let them fall by the way Only the living need praises, So give them their flowers today.

Too soon life will be over; Our day Is fast fading away. So friends, always remember, To scatter seme flowers, today. Horse meat Is very common among the poor of Paris. A 7 Chlcsge Grsln Table. WHEAT Open High Low Close Sept ......143 143 13 is' Dec.

Trade light New York Stocks and Bends. BY W. 8. COUSINS. (I.

N. 8. Finsnclal Editor.) New York. August 2. Though spec tscular forward movements were scored by the motor and specialty stocks today, the most consistent gains wer made by the railroad stock, in which buying of the best character was reported throughout the whole session.

Buying demand was about equally divided between the hlgb grade Investment stocks and the speculative isaues, with Rock Island a favorite in the latter group. The volume ot transactions wss somewhat smaller than in- the last two full sessions of the market, and speculative interest was withdrawn from a large number of stocks which enjoyed an active market last week. The railroad list Itself was unusually "spotty," with most of (he trading taking placvin. the first and fourth hours, when Interest waa shifted from the manipulated motor hires. United Statea Steel and the Independent steels continued to move tor-ward moderately, though in a reduced volume ot trading.

A huge volume of trading in General Motors, which rushed np 10 points to above 1200 a share, in the final period, overshadowed all of tba developments in the speculative mar ket in the late trading. Buying demand for tha stock followed ths announcement by a member of tbe Morgan banking house, that the public was a heavy purchaser of the stock and that tbe price would continue to advance on the earnings this year at J35 a share. Leaders ot business and banking expressed themselves ss entirely satisfied with tbe present Industrial out look, forecasting a huge volume ot business for the final five months of the year. Marland and Standard of New Jar sey led a spirited sdvance in the oil stocks, the first that has been seen in nearly a month. Ralls were steady and the balance ot the market firm at the close.

next day. Then we would eat breakfast and start right back, arriving In Mattoon some time after midnight and we got $85 a month. A freight brakeman's life then wasn't what it is now. Ws used to have to coal the engine at certain points. The coal was dumped, or shoveled, by the section men, onto a platform and ws would spot the engine at this platform and then all hands would grab a shovel and till up tha tender.

Some times we had to pump water by hand into the tank on the engine. But we thought we had a big Job at big pay. When I became a conductor, William Merkle, who Is still in the service, was my engineer. Many a time I have shoveled coal with him at Falmouth, which was one ot our coal ing stations. There was not a house south ot tha P.

D. ft E. tracks in Mattoon when I started working for the P. D. ft and there were only a tew scat tering ones on the west side ot Nineteenth street, south of the Big Four tracks.

When we need to go to the round house we followed a path which led through a big patch ot horse weeds as high as our heads. "I never had a serious accident to my train, but saw one ot my brake- men, Frank Puckett, get killed at Lerna. We had nothing but bad luck that day. First Frank feU off the train at Olney, as he was emptying a bucket ot coal into tha tender. While we were switching at Lerna, his toot was caught in a frog on the switch and the engine ran over blra.

Frank was a good pal of mine, and it was a long time before I could forget his cries for help as he went under the engine." "Did yon ever gef hurt yourself Mr. Fitch wss asked. Tea. I did." he replied, as he held up a stiff thumb. "Here is a relic of the old link and pin days.

One day at Olney I np a train and failed to get my thumb out in time, and as a result I have had a stiff thnmb for many That, however, is the only injury I received in my time until last fall when I fell off my train." Mr. Fitch, some years back, com menced to write poetry. While "lay ing over" at Evansvllle he would amuse himself by Jotting down bits of verse, mostly dealing with his ev eryday work. When the train pulled lq at the yard office in Mattoon, there would at times be a verse pinned on the sheaf of waybills, in which Mr. Fitch told of some error or conveyed soma information regarding the freight movement Then as his poetic talent developed, his verses began to attract attention, until of late years his poems have been read at hundreds of gatherings, ot railroad men as well as others.

His verses are clev er and to the point, couched in a aim- pie, appealing sentiment i kJoe," as he is familiarly known, is known In every town from Evansvllle to Peoria. It is doubtful if there is another man on the Illinois Central System which stands as high in the esteem of the public as "Joe." In all his life be says he has never taken a drink of liquor, nor a chew of tobacco nor smoked. He Is an ardent member of the First Presbyterian church of Mattoon, and an ac tive worker. For twenty yeears he has been a member of (he board of directors of the Railroad T. M.

C. A. here. He is a member of the O. R.

c. and the Knights of Pythias and a thirty-second degree Mason. The stories that are told about "Joe" among the traveling public are many, ana brings out the fact that he has not only professed a Christian life, but nas uvea it Many a poor traveler has reason to remember Mr. Fitch be cause of kindnesses extended. An In stance was related the other day which Illustrates some of the things Joe used to do for his passengers.

An old lan. reebie in years, boarded his at Evansvllle. As Mr. Fitch came through to take up the tickets she addressed him as "Joe" and ask- ed how long she would have to wait at Mattoon before getting a train north. Incidentally she said her' son resided at Charleston and if there had been more time she would have gone over to see hlra as he did not know she was passing through.

When the old lady stepped off ''if train at Mattoon she ran into the arms of her son! Joe had quietly sent telegram at his own expense to the son at Charleston, telling him tha mother would be in Mattoon be tween trains and asking him to spend that time with her. This, it is Tslated by those'who know Joe personally, Is but one of tha many hundreds of little services of absencefor ninety daya. Switchman C. E. Baker laid off a tew days on personal business.
