usKsows BOY INJURED.

Special TO the Gazette.
CLEBURNE, TEX, Aug. T. The
father of the unfortunate boy who was
injured a few days ago by jumping
from the Santa Fe train near Kopperl
arrived this afternoon. The insensible
condition Of the boy rendered 1t i'm
possible to gain any clew to his identity
through him. On his hat was the
name McMeeker. This was the only
thing that could be learned. The
railroad authorities telegraphed to
all stations on the line giving the
particulars of the accident and
with instructions to inquire If anyone
by that name was missing. The
father OF the boy called at the station at
Meridian to-day and inquired for u
lost boy. Upon giving the name he
was informed by the agent of the boy
now here.
The Santa Fe road has been caring
for him since the accident, but yester.
day the physician attending received
notice from the general manager that
they would no longer take care of him
a. the company was in no way respon-
sible for the accident.
