LITTLE Hazel, BOTTOM DIES
UNDER STREET-CAR WHEELS
The Seven-Year- Old Daughter Of Mr.. David Bottom
Meets a Terrible Death in Front Of Her
Home on South Cherry Street.

talking with a colored woman. Just be-
fore the car was opposite her she LETT OIL
talking and ran along the pavement par
allel with the car for some yards. Then
her attention was attracted to the colored
woman, and she turned to look, but with
her face towards the house and not the
open street. Suddenly she turned from
the straight course and darted directly
across the street. The front corner Of
the car seems to have struck her and she
fell under the fender. 1t is likely that
she was killed before the truck touched
her. The motorman stopped the car be-
fore her body had reached the second
truck, so she was found under the car
near the middle. The car had no passen-
gers.
In a. few moments a great crowd as
sembled. The child's lifeless form was
placed inside the car and the coroner
summoned. DR.. Taylor found that the
skull had been very badly crushed The
body was little injured. The flesh of the
childs pretty face was horribly torn.
Messrs. Richardson and Chappell, fu-
neral directors, came and took the body
to their rooms to prepare it for burial.
Officers Yarbrough and Hulcher, of the
Third District, placed the motorman un-
der arrest. Mr.. Hamlet was taken to
the Third Station. where Judge Witt
bailed him in the sum of $500, with Ser
geants Gibson and Ban foot as security.
Coroner Taylor will hold an, inquest, as
he usually does in such cases The jury
will meet at 1880 this morning at the
undertakers rooms, and from there will
adjourn to the Coroner's Office in the City
Hall. The following witnesses have been
summoned: Mrs. Godsey, Miss Lizzie j ones
and Mary Harris, colored.
The case of the motorman will be called
in the Police Court this morning, but will
be continued, pending the report from the
Coroner.
Mr. Bottom, the father of the little girl,
is the foreman Of the book department
of the J. /. Hill Printing Company. He
s is one of the bsst known secret order men
Of the city, and has a great host Of
friends, whose sincerest sympathy is
given to him and the Sorely stricken
mother at this time.
No man can more deeply regret the ter
rible affair than Motorman Hamlet. He
is distressed beyond measure. He has
been in charge Of a. car for five years.
A few months ago he was married. No
blame whatever seems to rest on him.
as no human being could have prevented
the accident. But there is nothing he
would not give had it not occurred
The time of the funeral Of the child
has not yet been set. 1t will be to-mor-
row, probably.

suuatted aike he was going to drop IN
his tracks, when suddenly he sprang 10
one side and ran towards the middle OF
the street, but right into the arms OF the
other two men. They were SO surprised p'
and unprepared for this move that IN

what had happened to him. DR.. Harri-
