YOUNG  MAN  KILLED
----------
Morris Kanouse, Driving a
Truck to Indianapolis,
Struck By Train.
----------
DIED  IN  HOSPITAL
----------

          Mrs. Morris Kanouse,  of Waldron, received word today at noon of the death of her husband, who was killed while driving a truck from Anderson to Indianapolis.  The truck was struck by a train.  Mr. Kanouse did not die immediately but was hurried to the Deaconness hospital in Indianapolis, where his death occurred shortly afterward.
          He was 31 years of age.  Besides his wife he leaves three small children, his father,  George Kanouse,  of St. Paul, and several brothers and sisters.  His wife's maiden name was  Scudder  and she had been staying with relatives in Waldron since her husband had accepted employment at Anderson.  In every respect he was a splendid young man and his widow and children have the sympathy of every one in this county on receiving the news of Mr. Kanouse's tragic death.
          Stewart & Fix were called to Indianapolis immediately to prepare the body for burial.  It will reach here tonight and the funeral arrangements will be announced by them on its arrival.
