ming suffering great pain and the Of
ticer carried him to police head
quarters. The boys condition was
such that officers summoned an am
bulauce and had him taken to the
Hospital. The boy vomited a great
deal and in this way about all OF
the poison or liquor he had taken
was elected from his stomach. He
is getting along nicely under treat
ment at the hospital at present but
1t will be two or three days before
he will be able to leave 1t.
Jimmie said his sickness was due
to some whiskey that George Fogg
gave him. The doctors at the hos
pital do not know whether he took
whiskey or some drug as the boy
had vomited his stomach about
empty by the time he got to the
hospital

cars known as the Watson and the
Wheelage cars, 1t says that decree
Of the circuit court of West Virginia,
March 20, 1903, enjoined it (the Bal

no promptly load and unload the
cars that are furnished them.
