A YOUNG Boys SUIT.
An Eleven Year-OId Youth Wants
$4,000 Damages From IL ?.
Road.


Leavenworth, Jan. 10-A $4,000 dam
age suit was filed against the Missouri
Pacific railroad yesterday by a boy II
years old named Lewellen Swanson Al
though he is named as plaintiff in the
action the suit is brought as it says
by his next friend, his father E. c.
Swanson.
Young Swanson had an arm taken off
by jumping from a freight train last
March near the elevator. The petition
states he boarded the caboose of a
freight train at the depot going north
on the railroad and when the train
reached the elevator it is averred the
employees of the road made him jump
off In doing so he was thrown vio-
lently to the ground and rolled under
the wheels of the car. He received a
bad cut on the forehead and over the
body and his arm was so badly injured
it had to be amputated by the physi
clans.
It is claimed the employees of the road
were negligent and careless not taking
the proper precautions in seeing that
the boy was not hurt.

a Islander on the girl. The Madonna
has a face that might have been cut
out of bread dough, and that has no
more expression than if she had been
born yesterday Lots of girls who
rave over the Madonna have faces that
are sweeter, and don't know it. This
statement will result in the charge
that we know nothing whatever about
High Art. We don't, and are proud of
it. We are also tired of the pictures of
fat babies floating through the sky
called angels. A tintype of any BABY
in town (taken with its clothes on, Of
course), is prettier.
