| The little son of Charles Milbradt
had very narrow escape on Saturday.
The little tot was just crossing the
cross walk, when one of the gravel
teams with a wagon heavily loaded
turned the corner also to cross. The
little fellow not having been noticed by
the driver was struck and knocked
down with the end of the whipple
trees, and in another instant would
have been crushed by the wheel pass
ing over him had it not been for the
yells of the driver of the head team
which attracted the other mans atten-
ton just in time to save the little fell
lows life.
Creameryman Bacon was quite SER
iously hurt last Tuesday evening while
trying to board the out going train from
here to Vesta. The train, which was
of quite length on this evening, had
gotten good start when the coach
came opposite the depot door. Mr.
Bacon made an attempt to grab the
railing on the front end of the coach,
but failing in this, made dive for the
other end as it passed by and secured
hold on the last railing on the back
of said coach with his right hand and
was instantly swung from the plat
form of the depot to the railroad track
still maintaining his hold on the iron
railing he was literally dragged several
feet before loosening his hold, when he
dropped heavily to the track, where he
lay insensible until DR.. Anderson ar
rived. He was then carried into the
Office of the depot where his wounds
were dressed and consciousness re-
turned to him. He was then removed
TO his home where under Entertainment
of Dr. Anderson he is doing nicely. A
large number of people witnessed the
accident and all say had Mr. Bacon
secured.a hold where he first attempted
it he would have been ground to a
pulp before their very eyes.
