DROWNED IN A WATER BARREL--A
little son of Mr. John Bratt, of this
place, aged about three years, was
drowned in barrel of water on Tues
day. The barrel was partly sunk in the
ground, and was full of rain water. The
little fellow, during a temporary absence
of his mother, got to the barrel, aud
leaning over, lost his balance and fell
in head foremost. He was missed at
once, and search being made, he was
found suspended in the barrel head
down, his clothing having caught on
the barrel and prevented him from go
ing to the bottom. Life was extinct
when he was found, although but few
moments had elapsed from the time he
was missed until be was found. The
distressed parents have the sympathy
of the public in their sad afiictioE.-

run over by the can at the switch near
the Savage mine. while attempting 70
jump from a platform upon the chr.

together in the hall Of the Jail, but
O'Keef suddenly became so furious and
violent, that his companions rushed in
to the cells and closed the doors, fear
Ing death or great bodily harm from
his insane violence. The excited man
being thus left to himself. rushed to
n Of the barred windows which light
the hall, and dashing his fist through
the glass, cut his hand d~readfully. All
this was the work of q moment, but be-
fore lie could do himself further dam.
age he was seized and secured by the
officers of the Jail, when it WAS sus-
pcctcd that an artery had been cut, as
the flow OF blood from the wounded
hand was most copious. and an exam
nation 10y the physician who was
broughtas quickly as possible, proved
such to be the case. After the artery
was taken up. and the hand properly

open the wounds afresh, and was in
danger fora time from the great loss Of
blood.
