remarkable case of endurance,
which recently came under his OBJ

services. A negro boy about Is
years of age, started at night on
foot from Middleburg to his home
on Esquire w. I. Hammond's place,
distant about two miles. The night
was dark and a cold rain falling.
The boy missed his way, fell into a
gully and broke his leg. He remain.
ed in the gulley until daylight, when
he made an effort to reach his home,
Suffering intense pain, he crawled
on his hands and knee all day, GOV.
ering a distance of nearly mile
when he became exhausted and was
compelled to spend second night
unattended with his broken limb.
The following morning he managed
to get sufficiently near to his home
to attract by hallooing the attention
of some of his people, who came to
his relief. Two nights and day,
without food, nursing alone a broken
limb, is an experience the boy will
never forget.

II. E. Chambers. engineer Of the Pitts
| burg and Western train, may die.
G.. w. Crossman, express messenger,

The accident. it is alleged, was due
10 the failure to flag the passenger
trains. The Buffalo, Rochester and

Railroads occupy the same tracks to
| Entlor, Penn. About a half mile this side
Of Wilmer station is a long curve. :

take. it is said. the trains were allowed
10 come together instead Of holding the
one until the other had passed.
The impact was terrific and ooth Ell

reduced to kindling wood. The passen-
gers were thrown from their seats ana
cut and bruised, but fortunately none
was hurt severely. The escape OF the
messengers was due, it is thought, TO the
