AcC1DENr-NEARLY FATAL.-on Sunday of last
week, two boys named Chesline, aged respective
ly FIVE and seven years, were visiting at farm
near Massillon. During their mischtevouS ram

else to have little fun, one Of them, the young

hung from above When his playmates had left,
he thought 1t would be joke to make them
think he had hanged himself, and accordingly he
thrust his neck into the moose and jumped off a
beam, strangling himself so severely as to pre-.
vent any cries from escaping his lips; fortunately
he was found Just in time, and after he was cut
down, it required some time to restore him to
consciousness. The result was rather serious

he only came down harder than before; finally
his friends got him to bed, and when they sup
