Cd stringent tramp laws, each becoming
convinced Of the advisability OF such
action when the rowing refugees from

down to Connecticut. which is the last
OF the New England States to fall into

Steve Green, who was blown through
the snow sheds on the second day in
January by the explosion Of Engine No.
II in the snow sheds, has returned from
the hospital. Green was standing be-
tween the engine and the tender when
the explosion occurred. He IA thrown
forward at least fifty feet, and was
hurled upward through the top Of the
snow shed. The roof Of the shed just a
second previous had raised up bodily
into the air and landed three hundred
feet down the precipitous mountain side.
Green struck the ground just on the
verge Of the precipice. When he re.
covered consciousness his first thought
was that the sheds had fallen upon the
engine. aud in endeavoring to escape
the supposed danger he almost fell over
the cliff. The legs Of his p%antaloons were
blown to Fragments. both legs were
badly scalded, his coat was blown from
his back and turned inside out, his face
was cut above and below the left eye, and
he received internal injuries that would
have killed an ordinary man. He i,
alive to-day, however, and is ready to
report for duty upon the railroad.
