son, who lives down near Blennerhas-
se4t Island, met with an accident yes
terday afternoon which came danger
ously near costing him his life. He had
boarded the Spencer accommodation,
| which leaves here at 130 p. M, with
the intention of going down to Blenner-
hassett, the little station opposite the
Island. After the train had gotten un-
der way he concluded that he was on
the through train, which does not stop
at Blennerhassett. He ran out on the
rear end of the last coach and jumped
off, in the opposite direction from
which the train was going. This threw
him off his feet and he fell onto the
telegraph wires which are strung along
the side of the bridge. From these he
fell to the pavement below, distance
of probably rs feet, and IN front of
Geo. Fought's store. He was rendered
unconscious by the fall and was thought
to be dead as the signs of life were very
faint. Upon examination it was found
that both bones in his right arm were
broken near the wrist and two very
bad wounds had been received, one
over his right eye and one on his scalp.
1 required about half dozen stitches
in each to close them up. His right
knee was also badly bruised.
