A REMARKABLE RECOVERY. June 2s

A REMARKABLE RECOVERY. On June 26,
A. Clark Squier, OF Brooklyn, was struck by .
Pennsylvania railroad train, and his skull was
so badly fractured that there was no hope of his
recovery. The fracture extended from the left
ear to the crown Of his head, breaking through
two or three of the smaller bones OF the skull
and tearing through the periostium. His physi-
clans, in their efforts to save his life, finally
confined themselves to the application of cold
water dressings to the head, and by simply
pressing the edges OF the skull aud the scalp
together two or three times each day caused
the bones to adhere. His ear, which was almost
entirely severed from his head, was so success
fully treated that no traces of its injury remain
Mr.. Squier's mental faculties are unimpaired
and his general health is good, though he is not
very strong.

MoTIvE.-Robert POdmare, aged IS years, OF
Pate rson, N j., was unsuccessful in seeking
work on Thursday, and after wandering around
went to the Erie railway depot, where his pc
culiar actions attracted attention. An east
ward bound freight train was heard approach
ing at distance, and Podmare hurrie fly went
toward the track, and stood seemingly undeci-
dad what TO do. Suddenly ne walked over the
track. The train was then about forty yard,
distant. He then returned and stood on the
and awaited the approach of the train. The
engineer repeatedly blew his whistle, and men
shouted to him, but he seemed not to notice the
warnings. When the train was within several
yards of him he turned about and faced the
engine, which struck him with terrific force,
and sent him hurting into the air. He fell in
front OF the train, and was literally ground to
pieces, over thirty cars passing over him.
