WHAT A BARREL OF WHISKY
BRCUGHTABOUT.

The Akron Reacon says on Monday night Dick
Cheney, man about % years of age, employed
by the Atlantic & Great Western railroad as a
track walker, was run over by train No. "a, from
the West near Silver Creek station. The engi
neer of No. "a saw light ahead on the track but
suppoSing it to be the trackman tightening bolts
did not stop his train. Upon a nearer approach
he saw the form of Cheney lying between the
rails but not in tm9 to stop his engine before the
cow.t atcher caught it The body was so fixed
under the COW. catcher that 1t could only be
moved by raising the engine with jack screws
When taSen o 1t Cheney was found to be alive
but almost unconscious from the effect of liquor,
and his body terribly manged. He was taken to
his home where his father and mother were both
found in a badly intoxicated STATE. 1t seems that
a neighborng saloon had laid in a barrel Of
whisky that morning and the denizens of the To-
calIty had taken advantage OF the event to in
dulge In general drunk.
