FOUND BY SIDE OF TRACE.
Before He Died, Ed Daily Said He Had Been Assaulted by Brakeman

Tuscumbia. Dec. 14.-7(Special.) )-An un- known white man was discovered lying on the side of the Southern Railroad track at Riverton Junction, this County. Wednesday morning by train crew. The man was brought to this city. On exam ination 1t was found that one of his legs had been broken between the knee and ankle. was unconscious, having lain in the cold several hours before found. The company's surgeon at this place attend ed the unfortunate man and dressed the wound, but later found 1t necessary to amputate his leg, from the effects of which he died last night. He rallied suf- ficiently to give his name as Ed Daily, and his home at Adrian, Mich, and said he was knocked of the train by brake man, but 1t Is thought he fell of, as he had been seen in an intoxicated condi- tion in Tuscumbia the day before.
 A peculiar accident occurred to the Southern's passenger train. No. 30, at Piperton. near CollierviIle Thursday night at o'clock. the marvel being that the entire train was not wrecked and several lives lost While running at the the rate of thirty miles an hour. one of the axles under the engine snapped In two and the driving wheel fell of and rolled down a ten-foot embankment. A hole was knocked in the boiler, the cy1- inder head blown out and one side of the engine was absolutely stripped. For tunately it was not derailed.
