Seriously Hurt.


Mr.. Jacob Ohlweiler, Sr., was serious
ly hurt on Saturday and narrowly escaped
being killed. He was on his way to Rey>
nolds on Mercer county train and when
the latter arrived at Taylor Ridge it was
side tracked to allow another train to pass.
1t was very warm in the coach and Mr..
Ohlweiler went to the rear door and stood
upon the platform leaning with one
shoulder against the door casing Sud
denly the train was jerked forward with
great force and Mr. Ohlweiler was hurled
forward from the platform to the ground
with great violence He struck
on his right shoulder across one
of the rails and was stunned.
The train stopped after pulling up a
short distance, and if it had backed up
would have killed Mr. Ohlweiler, as he
was unable to rise, although realizing bis
perilous position. He was helped to the
incoming train and conveyed to his home,
corner of Second avenue and Fifteenth
street. where DR.. Bernhard was sum
moned The doctor found that although
no bones had been broken. the victim of
the accident was seriously bruised. The
flesh on the right shoulder had been torn
from the bone by the terrific fall, and the
whole side more or less bruised. Mr..
Ohlweiler was feeling as well as could be
expected today. 1t will take some time
for him to get over his injuries.
