DRAGGED TWO
 AND A HALF MILES.
Whit Carter of Jonesboro Has Awful Experience Trying
 to Ride a Freight Train.

.Jonesboro, Nov. IF. = Whit Garter of this city was frightfully injured at about 8 o'clock last night between Fisherand Weiner on the Cotton Belt railroad.N He had missed his train at Fisher. A freight train followed later and he attempted to get aboard while in motion. He caught one of the cars and attempted to climb up between the bumpers, when he fell, his trousers catch ing on the drawhead and holding him.
 His head and shoulders struck the ground, his trousers still holding, and in this position was dragged for two and a half miles, the train running at the rate of twenty miles an hour. 1 His face and arms were terribly lacerated.
 He was noticed first by Aquilla Ferguson, who was a passenger on the train, and succeeded in stopping it by firing his pistol. The injured man was taken from his position and placed in a ca boose.
 It was found that all the flesh on the left side of his face and his ear had been ground off, and the arm and shoulder frightfully torn. On his arrival here he was taken to St. Bernard's Hospital and at the present time is resting fairly well.
