Charlotte, y. c.. July 2S.-(Special)-An
unknown white boy created great SEN

willie road recently by jumping from tho
window of the train while il was running

boy had a ticket TO the town Of Hunts

Captain Morrison. the conductor. asked
the boy for his fare. but ne said ne did
not have il. The conductor then sat down
on the seat in front and began 10 write

went in the twinkllng of an eye 11e
passengers screamed. Man overheard,
and everybody expected TO find a gnGi-
lated body. but the case was investigated
and no trace of the missing boy was
found. The boy had jumped as the train
was passing through a cut. and had lOrn
up the ground for some distance, but all
trace OF MIN nad vanished.
Later the fugitive was traced TO a field
near the scene Of the dive. but no further
word has been heard of the boy
