SINGULAR AND Terrible ACCIDENT.-Sat-
urday morning ayoung man named Edward
Woods, met with a severe accident which
happened in this way. He was walking on
a railroad bridge, near Hlinoistown; when
he saw two locomotives approaching in OPP
posite directions. Becoming frightened, and
conceiving that the only way left him to
escape was to jump off the bridge--a dis
lance of from fifteen to twenty feet-he did
so, falling upon the ice and breaking it. The
conclusion crushed and mangled both his
legs in horrible manner. He remained in
the water in a helpless condition, for half
an hour, before assistance was rendered
him. A railroad hand succeeded in getting
young Woods out, after much difficulty, the
ice being broken for some distance around
him. 1t is supposed that the sufferer viii
have to have both legs anputated.-SL

The ST. Louis Republican denied that the
article in the .Nelcs was authorized. The

statement was dawn up by lis editor, and
published without the knowledge Of Mr..

be found to be those entertained by Mr..
