From Work Train and
is Badly Cut.

Michael Cusmainaje, a laborer en-
ployed at the Gibson yards, narrowly
escaped death this afternoon as he was
riding from Gibson to Hammond on
what is known as the Indiana Harbor
work train.
Cusmainaje was on one Of the back
cars and when the train was just about
to cross Holman street, Cusmainaje,
supposing 1t was not going to stop at
Hammond Jumped off the train, which
was going at the rate of twenty five
miles an hour. When he struck the
ground he rolled along the track for
several feet.
officer Frenck, who was standing on
the four corners saw the man rolling
and Immediately ran to his assistance
and took the man to a physicians Of
fee where his wounds were dressed.
1t was found that both hands had been
severely cut and his face was a mass
of cuts which were bleeding profusely.
His right shoulder was also injured.
After his cuts had been dressed he in
sisted upon going to East Chicago,
where he said he had friends.
officer Frenck said: 1T was the
closest call I ever saw a man have.

hands in his pockets and as he struck
the ground he rolled along the wheels

Plans Completed for Eleva-
ton Of all Railroads
in Steel Town.
M|N|M|zES ACCIDENTS
Contract Recently Let For So Miles
Super Roadbed-Now All viii
Be Raised.

Gary, March 25.-Probably no single
part of the gigantic work here of
building a city has been worked out
and made a part of the general scheme
of development that will be so far
reaching and do so much for Gary as
municipality as the project which is
now being promulgated by James key
nolds, the engineer in charge.
1t is a plan whereby all of the rail-
roads running through Gary shall be
elevated so that there will not be
single grade crossing within the popu-
later portion of the corporation
A contract recently let for track ele-
walton south of the Grand Calumet
river calls for the elimination OF grade
crossings on the Baltimore & Ohio, the
Chicago, Indiana & Southern and the
Lake Shore roads. This, however
made no provision for the elevating OF
the Wabash. Michigan Central Gary
& Western or the Pennsylvania roads
all of which will traverse a more
thickly settled portion of the city than
the three first named.
KNOTS Works Ont Scheme.
Early last fall when the placing of
the roads was being discussed, Mr..
Knots as manager, worked out a
scheme of elevation for all of the roads
passing through here of which the ele-
walton of the three should be a part.
This was turned over to the engineer
ing department and their work is prac-
tically completed.
AS worked out the plans calls for a
general raising of the Pennsylvania
lines from Indiana Harbor, so that
when they strike Toleston the tracks
will be high enough to permit traffic
to pass under them. From there the
grade Will be maintained until after
the tracks cross Broadway In Gary,
making an overhead crossing of Broad
| way and then gradually descending
towards the Little Calumet river. The
Michigan Central will be elevated &C
cording to the plan so as to avoid all
grade crossings, while the Gary
western will run under the Pennsyl-
vania at Toleston, but will rise fast
1 enough from there to make an over
head cross at Broadway. The Wabash
is to elevate in the same way with the
exception that they will drop quite
rapidly after going east from Broad
way to cross under the Gary & West

east and joint the Lake Shore lines

was called for in the contract recent.
let to Larrimore & Gallagher is but
part Of the entire work which 1T is ex
pected will be carried out If realize
this plan will give Gary almost idea
municipal conditions for manufactur
ing city.
1t means that the danger arising
grade crossings will never be know
to citizens of the town. The work o
securing the consent Of the differen
roads to do this work has been goin
forward for some time until PRACTICAL
all of them have agreed to the propo
sition, and the plans for the actue
work are being carried out.

YOUNG BOY KILLED
BY MONON TRAIN
Bystander Witnesses Acct
dent; Thinks Youth a
Bundle of Rags.

A young lad about L years old, sup
posed to be S. Janowowski. met an
awful death this morning at Hege-
wisch.
Janowowski was riding on a Monon
freight train from Burnham to Hege-
wisch and in attempting to get off is
supposed to have fallen beneath the
wheels. His body and head were badly
mutilated.
The accident happened at the Erie
depot. Earl Harlan was standing
across from the Western Steel Car and
Foundry company's plant and saw what
he supposed was a bundle of rags
ranging beneath the passing freight.
Just then another train INSTRUCTED his
view and he was unable to see what
it was until after the other train had
passed by, when he ran along side of
the freight and saw that 1t was the
body of a young boy which had been
dropped beside the track after being
dragged 100 feet. The remains of the
boy were removed to Korthaus' under
taking establishment where they lie
awaiting the coroner to arrive to give
his verdict.
As the body was being removed,
work check No. 1853, dropped out of
his clothing This was taken to the
office where it was found that this
number belonged to s. Janowowski, a
young lad emoplyed as rivet heater.
On account of the mutilated condition
of the body, which is not recognizable,
this is the only means of indentifica-
ton that the coroner will have when
he sits on the case.
Janowowski is thought to have lived
at Burnham. The inquest will be held
this afternoon.

accident. brought Jablavenski to his
quarters in his rig. DIR. Packard was
called and DR.. Semplin then amputated
the front part of the foot. Mr.. Long,
the sub-contractor for Stein, Wyatt &
Co., for whom the man was working.
was untiring in his efforts to help the
unfortunate man. He could give no
explanation of how the man could
have been hurt but thought the acct
dent was partly a result of the mans
being somewhat under the infiusnce of
liquor. He was removed to st. Mar
garets hospitol last evening.

The Father of All.

Someone has caught this beautiful
message from the trees and flowers.
AS the natural sun does not shine
for a few trees and flowers, but for
the whole world, so the Sun of Right
eousness shines not for favored few
but for the world Of human hearts.
AS the lonely pine on the mountain
side looks up to the sun and cRies,
'rhou art my sum-" and the little
meadow violet looks up and whispers,
Thou art my sum-" and each field
of grass and grain upon thousand
hills looks up and softly breathes,
Thou art my sum- so the high ana
low, the rich and poor, the Caucasian
and African can look up to the Sun
of Righteousness and say, Thou art
my Father"

While serving in Nebraska, Dr. WAL
ter Reed, remembered for his dis
tinguished service in the extermlna'
ton Of yellow fever, was frequently
called on to practise among the gran
gers, who exc out a bare subsistence
by trying to farm where the rainfall
is barely sufficient for a good crop
once in three years. In the winters,
SAYS the author of walter Reed and
Yellow Fever" he was often obliged,
in the discharge Of his professional
duties, to take journeys on horseback
that were dangerous from the risk OF
being overtaken by a blizzard.
A little incident occurred on one
OF these expeditions which Doctor
Reed always referred to with amuse-
ment as an instance of the difference
in mans point Of view
He was sent for while, blizzard
was raging and the thermometer was
below zero to go distance of twelve
miles to see a sick woman. He start
ed at sunset in driving wind, out on
to the open prairie, where nothing
could be seen but a sheet of snow,
stretching miles and miles ahead OF
him, without landmark visible. 1t
was not long before he lost his way,
and wandered about for hours, when
suddenly little beacon OF light ap-
peared, and he found the tiny cabin
he was seeking.
The woman was very i'll, and ne
could not leave her until the next al
ternoon, during which time the hus'
band did his best to entertain him.
While they we're sitting before the
rickety stove waiting for some cofee
to boil. the old man drawled out:
well, doc, I often feel sorry for
you folks at the post. I know you
all must git powerful lonely some
times"
The post consisted OF four COM
panies, with headquarters and the
band. Moreover, it was situated
within sight Of the railroad-staton;
and Doctor Reed, with the recollec'
ton of it in his mind, was at that
very moment commiserating inward
" the utter isolation Of this poor ola
pair in their remote cabin.

ADDreciation.

Recently a wealthy man of society
gave a dinner for fifteen friends, and
the cost was sixty dollars plate.
With e few extras it cost him about
$1,000. On his way home he re-
marked to a neighbor, "Not one of the
fellows appreciated it, and I am COM
ing home mad at myself for my fool
ishness." A man gathered ten ragged
boys together and treated them to ice
cream. AS they left the confection-
er's, they raised their caps and gave
him "hurrah" that was heard
blocks away. He went home happy.
His one dollar had done more than
the others thousand.
