| at Warsaw last Tuesday and while there
| they took a coast on the toboggan slide.
| Bob and his wife made the trip safely,
| but when he and Mrs. Seavey took the

| support her in the water. At this
| juncture an old gentleman who is sta

Of such accidents plunged into the water
| and dragged The nearly exhausted couple
| to the shore. Had it not been for the
| old man at least one of the two would
have been drowned and possibly both.

was standing at the depot waiting FOR
| orders. and he and Harry Johnson, the
! night man, were sitting upon a pair Of
| trucks talking. Presently Jack Freas
| and Fred Jones. accompanied by their
| wives, passed. AZ this point the stories
