John Harris, the 3-year-old son OF Mr.
and Mrs. John II. Harris, of 1866 Evans
court was almost instantly killed ir
Gwetland street last night.
The little fellow, who was fair
haired child, the idol Of his parents
and all who knew him, and had just
been dressed up after his days play
ran out of the house to join the Other
children in the neighborhood. The
house is situated a few doors off Sweet.
ias.d street, in Evans court, and the
boy had crossed the street at point
IN front of David C. Thomas house. at
1915 Swetland street, and started home-
ward again. While he was in the
street, between the curb and the street
car track, team of horses, owned by
Liveryman Joseph Kelly, came along.
The team was in charge of Joseph
Griffin, who was returning from the
funeral of the late Peter Reiger. The
boy evidently tried to run in front of
the horses, unnoticed by the driver. and
was knocked down. David G. Thomas,
who was sitting on the porch In front
of the house. saw the accident, and ran
to the child and tenderly picked him
UP, calling to the driver, who was then
some distance away.
The little fellow was carried to his
home, but before he was laid down his
life had gone out. His young mother
was SO completely overcome that she
sw6oned. An examination revealed the
fact that the child's skull had been
fractured and his face was bruised by
being thrown to the ground.
The imprint of the horses shoe was
partially visible on the boys head.
Whether he was internally injured by
being run over by the carriage could
not be determined, as Coroner Saltry
did not deem an autopsy necessary.
Griffin was much affected by the acci-
dent. He stated that he did not see the
boy and had not the slightest notion
that any accident occurred until Thom-
as called to him.
DR.. d. w. Evans and DR.. w. Row.
land Davies visited the house after the
accident. but they could do nothing, as
the child was dead, and DR.. w. A.
Paine was called later to attend Mrs.
Harris, who suffered from nervous pros
tration.
The father was employed at the Dia-
nlond mine up to the time of the
strike, and since then has been working
in Buffalo. A message was sent to
him last night, apprising him of the sad
occurrence.
Coroner Saltry visited the house last
evening and viewed the remains and
decided that an autopsy was unneces-
