A Horrible TRAGEDY AZ RAIFORD

Gut OT-Two Conflicting Stories -
Whnt BECAME of the Woman I'm the
Cn>c-WiId leap from II Train.

Two conflicting stories came from
Radford about the accident of Sunday
there, and they are given for what
they are worth.
Thomas l.. Mcmahon jumped from
the East bound train while it was III
motion on Sunday afternoon neal
Radford, turned couple OF summer
saults. and foil with his head and arm
under the wnecIs OF the ears. Both
were severed from the body ana the
blood gushed out covering the rails:
An account of the accident gwen by
n passenger of the train Is to the et-
feet that the gentleman, Mr. THOMAS
l. McMahon by name, had an en-
carrluent to meet lady at Radfor'l
ana clope with her. The lady came
from further up the line, and he was
10 ioiu her AT the station. Just be
fore the train pulled into the depot
She secreted herself, thinking that
She was being Swallowed, and when
Sir. McMahon boarded the train aud
uassed through the car she was not to
be found.
In the meantime the train had
started and Mcmahon, not finding The
woman. attempted to leave 1t. The
grade at this point descends rapidly
and the train was making about TWEEN
" miles an hour when the man Jump
ed. He was warned by the conductor
not 70 do 80, but did not heed. The
passenger, who brought the IN
formation. said that the facts as
given were learned from letters
found on the dead mans person.
The other story is to the effect that
Mr.. Mcmahon had boarded the train
to bid his WIFI good bye, and. during
an aiT.ctionate lcave-taking the train
started. The gentleman hurriedly
kissed his wife and left the coach. In
attempting to jump from the plat
form steps he was by some means
ierked under the train, the wheels
passing over his neck and severing his
head from the body.
The train was stopped and the
body and head Of the unfortunate
MN taken from the track. The dis
tress and agony of the poor wife. who
n few seconds before had imprinted a
loving kiss upon her husbands lips, Is
said to have been truly pitlaole
Little. indeed. did either think 1t
would be their last kiss, or that the
wife was so soon TO look upon the
nlangled corpse of her husband. The
dead man lives in Bramwell, and his
body will be carried there for inter

Mr. George Blanton, an employe OF
i. f. Burks, the Second street plum
Der, came near losing his life yester-
day by gas suffocation: a meter in
the store of Mr.. Chris Wertz, on Sec
ond street, got out of order about II
o'clock, and Dir. Blanton went over
TO fix it, and as the meter was under
the flooring it was necessary for him
to lay down on his back and reach it.
He was endeavoring to change meters.

street, so soon as he took the cap off
the gas pipe. the gas poured out and
soon filled the small space in which
he was Before lie could get the cap
in place again he was completely
overcome by the gas. His helper
waited II few moments outside ana not
hearing him coming out, and as tie
odor of the gas was strong, rightly
guessed what the trouble was and
quickly rescued him from the peri!ous
position. After staying in the fresh

went back to finish the job, but YVES

and had nearly completed the task,
but once more he succumbed. a doc

seemed as if the man had but a few
moments to live. As Mr.. Wertz put
it. "he was next door to Woolwines.
Restoratives were applied, and after
hard work he began to show signs OF
returning life. He was taken home
and while much better. is still not out
of danger. This should be a lesson.
Perseverance is a good thing, but

attempts, Il little less of it would he
