boy, who made his home with w R.

parents had resided in Pittsburg and when
they died his grandfather took charge of
him and found him good home with Mr.
Dickie. He was 13 years of age and had
been with Mr.. Dickie some three years,
and was working for his boarding and
clothes and was being sent TO school. He
was an active lad and much given TO gym
nastics. On Saturday evening he was
going through some evolutions with a
roller towel and in some way got it fasten-

moments later was dead.-Indidna Mes

Miss Lizzie OH ara, of Cresson, while
returning TO her home from the station
at that place, on Sunday evening with
several companions made a mis-step and
fell from the railroad overhead bridge
which crosses the pike Just east of the
station to the ground, a distance of about
10 feet. In her descent she must have
struck the electric light wires which run
under the railroad at this point, as she
was not seriously injured, but was render
ed unconscious for couple of hours. Her
escape from injury or death is miraculous.
This is very dangerous place on a dark
night and should not be used until some
projection is placed on either side, or the
board walk continued across the pike to
the cinder path.
