FORT DODGE, Dee. 4.--John Turney,
a switchman in the Illinois Central
yards here, had miraculous escape
from what seemed certain death
Wednesday night. Turney stepped
between two coal cars and fell under
the wheels. Strange TO relate the
wheels, instead of grinding him to
death, pushed his body along before
them several yards. When the train
was stopped it was found that, though
badly bruised and gashed, none of
Turncy's bones were broken and no
fatal injuries sustained.
