SHOCKING ACCIDENT.

Joseph NJ. Baggs, son of Mr.. A. j..
Baggs, of Bridgeport, and well-knOwn in
this vicinity, met with shocking acci-
dent about o'clock on last Thursday at
the Carlyle brick works on the Cleveland,
Lorain and Wheeling Railroad, near
Uhrichsville. He was sitting near the
machinery which runs the clay-mixer,
and reared back in his chair and over
balanced, and in the endeavOr to regain
his balance threw his arm back when the
coat-sleeve On the left arm was caught i'll
a pair of large cog wheels, the teeth of
which are five or six inches across the
face, and the arm between the elbow and
shoulder was drawn between the cOgs
and ground to pieces. The machine was
stopped and reversed as quickly as posi-
BILE and the unfortunate man was released
from his perilous situation and taken in
to the Office of the company, and his
father and wife at Bridgeport advised of
the accident. Medical aid from the
vicinity was summoned, and Drs. Fisher
and Cooke, of Bridgeport, and HObson,
of Flushing, were sent to the scene on a
special train, and the limb was amputa-
ted at the shoulder by the physicians, and
on Friday night he was removed to his
home in Bridgeport. Mr.. Baggs is about
% years old, and was married about two
years ago TO Newark, Ohio, lady.
The recovery from the shock OF the ac-
cident and operation was slow, his life
being in the balance for day or two, but
at last accounts he was improving and
there is prospects that he will get well.

when the Democratic party has been

upon it.
