Brownsville Cemetery to be Preserved as Illinois Shrine

Illinois Senate approves Senate Resolution 174 to preserve Brownsville Town Cemetery, Jackson County as a historical shrine. The Jackson County Historical Society led the effort to mark and maintain the site once a county seat and center of early county life, with plans for markers near Rt. 149 and improved access for visitors.

Plain clothed bicycle patrols curb crime in Carbondale

Norman Horner and seven fellow officers patrol Carbondale streets in unmarked cars and on bikes under an ILEC grant. Their presence has reduced burglary by over 65 percent in nine months, though opportunities for crime remain as detectives note limited dispatch-unit communication. Horner says he chose policing for the work and emphasizes visibility and lighting improvements on the levee area.
