 Yesterday afternoon a small boy boarded the running board of a trol- ley car on South Main street and when he tried to jump off he took header and narrowly escaped coming under the wheels of the coach. The car was heading towards the center at a pretty good clip. and whether anybody on board saw the accident or not, nobody took any notice of it. Charles Mix of Benedict X Burnham's and another man saw the upset and thought the yOIlngster was seriously hurt, but for tunately he came off with nothing worse than a dirty face and crack on the jaw against the paving blocks. The school children on South Main street run big risks with the trolley cars and if an officer could be spared it would be an excellent plan to have one sta toned between Meadow and JewelFy streets when the school children are dismissed
