ter 11.30 O'Clock Willie Campbell. the

fully down Orchard street, and ut the
intersection of Stone avenue spied one
of the electric light company's wagons
coming down Stone avenue cL good
rate OF speed Young Campbell ana
the crowd struck for the wagon and
jumped on the rear.
In some manner he slipped and both
his legs were caught in the spokes of
one of the rapidly revolving wheels
and were dashed with terrific force
against the box of the wagon. The
young lad. however. heroically held
fast to the rear end of the box.
His terrific screams and cries
brought the team to n stop and when
he was cXtricated from his position
it was found that the left leg was bad
ly crushed. AS his father is an en-"
ploye of the South mill, the Moses Tay-
lor hospital ambulance was hurredly
