The admirable location Of the lot, the

KNOCKED OUT ny AN ENGINE.
Two Youmg Men Perhaps Fatally In
iured on the Rati.

Yesterday morning two young men
who were supposed 10 bo tramps, who
were asleep, were knocked Oft the truck
of the Richmond, fredericksburg and
Potomac railroad near Fredericksburg by
the fast mail going North. They were
placed on the train and taken as far NJ
fredericksburg, and brought to this city
on tho down tradn, taken to the Retreat
for the Sick, and placed under the charge
of DIR. c. W. z. Brock.
When picked up both men were in-
sensible and found TO DO quito seriously
hurt. The younger one, boy apparent
ly about sixteen years of age, is stier-
lng from q fracture OF the skull with an
extonslye depression. After their arrival
here il was found necessary 10 apply the
trephine in order 10 raise the depressed
fracture. This operation was success
fully performed by DR.. Brock, assisted
by DR.. NJ. l.. James, DIR. Hope, OF
Hampton, and Drs. Winfree and Ashton,
of the Retreat The patient is not eX-
pected to recover.
The oldest one seems TO be about
twenty-five years Of age, and hrs skull ls
also fractured. When n Dispdfch re-
porter visited them last night this one
was living in a semi.delirlous condition,
and the physician was trying to get him
Ia tell his name He told the Doctor
that hns name was John Taylor and that
his companion was named Willie Beas-
ley. He was then asked where he was
from, and said the North. Just before
the reporter arrived be told the colored
nurse that his home was at place called
Oak Spring He would try to talk Mt
times, but could not mako himself un-
derstood.
Nothing was found upon their persons
10 give clue to either their homes or
names. The oldest ono had a pocket
book containing thirty-fve cents, and in
his pocket were a wind-harp aud knife.
A love letter was also found in the pocket
of the older one, dated August 18th,
written by cousin, and addressed To
"Mr John w. Taylor.
Il was learned at o'clock this morn.
ing that passenger who arrived on the
late train claimed to be the father Of one
of the unfortunates. but he could not be
found nor could anything further than
this be learned at that late hour.

DESCRIPTION.

The model is about two and half feet
high and is well-iinished as regards de-
tails especially as regards the anatomy
of the horse. The group is designed TO
represent General Lee as having just
reined in his horse and in the act of
overlooking a battlefield and receiving
the greeting of his troops. The horse S
head is down and turned slightly to the
left; the left fore-foot is advanced, and
the left hindfoot thrown back. The sug-
gestiun is that the animal is pulling upon
the bit at the moment of stopping. The
figure OF Lee is erect and bareheaded,
the torso and head also being turned
very slightly to the left. The bride
hand is well up On the breast and the
left hand rests on the thigh and holds
the Generals hat
Ii is understood that objection having
been raised to representing General Lee
bareheaded Mercie held that 1t would
be a shame to conceal such a splendid
head by covering it with hat. Those
who viewed the model yesterday pro-
nounced it a success as to portraiture,
general effect, and modelling OF the
horse.
The public will be admitted to the
Senate chamber to-day.
