GLEN WEAVER INJURED.
Narrowly Escapes Serious Injury and
Possible Death.

Last Tuesday afternoon an accident
occurred that came near proving
serious to Glen Weaver, aged about
IL years, the little son of Liveryman
Weaver. 1t seems that the boy was
riding a ladies' bicycle on Eoff street
andwhen in front, John Roses store he
dismounted to lace his shoe, resting
his foot upon the wheel. Before as
Stunning this position he had placed
himself to one side of the street to
escape passing teams. While in a
STOPPING position a passing wagon
loaded with brick, in charge of
Teamster Dean, struck the boy and
threw him in such a manner as to
cause him to fall under the wheel.
By his presence of mind Glen threw
both hands against the wagon, push
ing himself backward, but the wheel
struck him above the ankle on the
right foot. Fortunately the wheel
passed over only small portion of
the foot AL Watkins, Dan Cotter
and others, who witnessed the ac-
cident, went to the boys aid and
lifted him to the side walk. He was
carried from there to his home, and
DIR. Numbers was called. No bones
were broken, but the wound is very
painful The little fellows presence
OF mind saved him broken leg and
possibly an awful death. From
those who witnessed the accident we
are informed it was wholly uncalled
for, asithe boy was far enough out
of the way and the teamster certainly
saw him in time to avoid it.
