from a horrible death last Thursday.
He had gone down to the railroad
stock-yards, and in order to get a bet
ter view of the cattle in the yard he
mounted one of the gates. Later on,
while attempting to jump from the gate
onto one of the cattle cars standing on
the sidetrack, he lost his footing and
fell to the track, 3 distance of about
fourteen feet. In the descent he struck
his right shoulder against the edge of
Of the cattle yard platform, and his
right hand was badly lacerated by COM

He struck the track in an insensible
condition, and but for the prompt ac-

meath the wheels of the cattle train,
which was just beginning to move. As
it is he escaped with a bruised should
