the street. \. G. Thigpen, the motor
man, says that he saw the boy run
ming before he left the pavement and
that when he started toward the car
he was still in a slow trot and ap-
peared to be looking directly at the
car. The motorman expected the boy
to stop before he reached the car. ing
pen reversed his car when he saw that
the boy had reached a position where
the car would strike him, but in spite
of his efforts to prevent the accident
the car ran over the boy. The motor
man and those near Dy at lne tHle
the accident happened pulled young
LaRoche out and carried him to the
bedside of his sick mother near by.
Shortly after the boy reached his
home he regained consciousness.
DR.. f. Wahl was Immediately called
in and at once called the police ambu-
lance and had the boy removed to st.
Joseph's Hospital. With the assist
ance of DR.. jackson, the house physi-
clan, the limb was set Later in the
day hemorrhages set in and it was
feared that the little fellow had sus-
tanned internal injuries, but at mid
night the hospital officials reported
that he was much better.

TELFAIR ACADEMY
By Gen. Louis Fitzgerald, who
Visited 1t Yesterday.

Gen. Louis Fitzgerald, of New York,
was in Savannah yesterday en- route
to Florida, where he goes to his win
ter home. He is travelling on a pri-

road, and turned it over to the man
agement of President H. M. Conner.
Gen. Fitzgerald has now retired
from business and spends his time in
enjoying life. While here he called
on Mr.. Carl L. Brandt, director of
the Telfair Academy, and, under the
direction of Mr.. Brandt, was shown
through the gallery. He was most
enthusiastic both over the number of
fine pictures in the gallery, and their
arrangement, and says that he knows
of no gallery south of New York that
for its size has as many really fine
paintings or has a better arranged
gallery in which to display them.
