Kansas City Times, l9th:-"Three years
ago. remarked q railroad man, ''there wasn'l
a more important man in the west than Mar.
tin Irons, in his own estimation and In the
estimation Of thousands Of labOring men. He
was a man before whom the officials of the
Missouri Pacific system bowed in submission
and once he sent word to General Manager
Hoxie that he didn't have time to see him. ]

Tuesday afternoon Miss Zoe Bassett and
her cousin, Miss Mary Bassett, OF Richmond
were out carriage riding and on their return
to MIR. Bolon's residence. where they board
little Annie Trigg, aged 4 years. and Lilburn
aged two years, were very eager TO take .
ride also and pursusded their mother TO lei
them go. Mrs. Trigg placed them In the car
risge and told the driver to take them up tC
Mr.. 10. Lesueur's residence. They were
cautioned to sit still, but when the carriage
had turned from Franklin avenue on to TbIr
teenth street, Lilburn, 1t seems, attempted to
change his seat from one side of the carriage
to the other and In doing so lost his balance
and fell out Of the carriage door. In falling
his head struck the wheel and followed the
revolution of the wheel to the ground where
his head was pushed, or rather, pincheC
along for some two or three feet. A terrible
cash over the right ear measuring 8 inches II
length, In a half moon shape, and the scalI
laid back about two or three inches. was thu
result. The temple artery was also cut ant
from this wound the blood flowed profusely
Although the little fellow was very badly
hurt, he regained his feet without assistance
and walked to the sidewalk, where he fell
being weak from excitement and loss o
blood. He was picked up by Mr.. Johr
Young, Jr., who saw him fall, and carried
home. When Mr.. Young picked him up b,
was very confident that the little fellow
would die. DR.. Chambers was called in, tn,
wound dressed and five stitches taken. II,
Is now doing very well, is very bright ant
has quite q vivid recollection of how he wa
hurt. The carriage weighs about LOO
pounds and it Is really miraculous that b
was not instan tly killed.
