After -Four Long Months
Death Ends the Suffering Of
George D. Bahen.

WASHINGTON. March26 -GeorgeD.
Bahen, the football player Of the
Georgetown University Of Washing.
ton, D. c., who was injured last
Thanksgiving day in a game be-
tween the University and the Colum-
bia Athletic Club, died shortly before
noon to-day in the Emergency Hos
pital in this city. where he had been
receiving medical attention. Bahen
was 10 years of age and was born in
Richmond, where his parents reside.
His father and mother were al his
bedside when he died.
1t was in the football game be-
tween %elevens from the Georgetown
University and the Columbia Athletic
Club on Thanksgiving day, Novem.
Der % last, that young Bahen re-
ceived the injuries which resulted III
his death. The play throughout was
characterized by rough and marsh
exchanges, and a number Of men OF
both sides were more or less injured
and bruised. Young Babeu was
playing halfback for Georgetown,
aud he met with his mishap in the
middle Of the first half. Bahen's
play was to interfere with Leete,
while Mahoney had the oa'l, and this
he was doing to perfection. Baten
made a rush, and, as he did Sc, he
received a blow from "a Columbia
adherent which felled him to the
ground. Before he could recover
from his shock and regain his feet he
was trampled upon By the excited
players, and received the full force Of
numerous kicks. In the struggle
Mahoney had an ankle sprained,
but he stuck manfully to his post,
and was laid up for several days
afterward.
Bahen was carried from the field
to the University, whence he was
afterward removed to the Emergency
Hospital. On examination it was
found that the fourth vertebra was
shattered and the entire body below
that Joint became ~paralyzed. There
were several bruises on several parts
of his body, and his scalp was torn
in several places. After being in
the hospital for some days, the ope.
ration of l%aminectomy was performed
with such success that the paralysis
was partly relieved Ever since that
memorable Thanksgiving the young
student has been b%edridden, but he
withstood his affection with com
mendable fortitude and Christian
resignation. His splendid physical
condition served to prolong his life,
but he slowly faded away Every
thing that medical science could sug-
gest had been done for him up to the
very last, and, together with the KIND
offices Of a loving mother, al indui-
gent father and attentive nurses, the
declining days Of the unfortunate
young man we're made as comfortable
as the circumstances would permit.
Deputy Coroner Glazebrook called
at the hospital as soon as the death
was reported to him. In all proba-
bility %an::inquest VIII be held -to-nor-
row morning.

CHATTANOOGA, Tenn, March 81
South-boupd passenger train No. 3 on
the Cincinnati Southern Railroad was
held up at 2:35 o'clock this morning at
South End Tunnel No. 9. The train
was ascending a steep grade between
Greenwood and Alpine, Ky, in the
midst of the widest mountain section
of Kentucky, when a white lantern
in the darkness ahead brought 1t to a
stop, a man with a cooked revolver in
his hand climbed into the cab and COW
cred Engineer Tom Springfield and
Fireman Daisy Rankin, who were or
dered to stand still. Three other rob-
bers, wearing broad-brimmed SLOUGH
hats and dressed like mountaineers,
withal desperate looking men, boarded
the baggage car, which they missook
for the express car. Three road detec-
tives we're sitting in the smoker, and
when the train stopped Detective Will
Algood stepped out on the platform. A
fourth mar on the ground ordered him
to throw up his hands, but he replied
with a pistol ball, which brought the
robber to the ground. The bandits on
the baggage car stampeded at hearing
the shooting, and Jumped down. \
sharp battle of snail arms cDsued, 10
which the other detectives, William
Eddy and Thomas Griffin, took a hand.
At the finish two robbers we're found
lying dead ard a third mortally
wounded.
At Cumberland Falls the officers tel
%egraphed the news out, and, a%lighting,
set out on the trail Of the two fugi-
tives 1t is thought the wounded man
was a tramp and shot by one Of the
robbers, who mistook him for a train
man. The road officials were aware
Of the plot to hold up the train. and
the presence Of the officers was not ac-
cidental, although such is denied.
