Drowned fn the Birmingham Cana1-A
 Singular Coincidence.
 Yesterday afternoon some boys were on the ice on the Birmingham canal at or near the same place where the Hedges boy was drowned last summer, and one of their number named Wurtemburg broke through. George Cooper, aged about 16 years, worked and saved him from drowning and then broke through him self and was drowned. This brave but unfor- tunate Cooper is the youth who took Eddie Hedges into the water last summer on his back and lost him eff Both lost their lives in nearly the same spot. The water in the canal was drawn of and the body was recov- cred early last evening.
