Conductor Edgar Locke of the L.. A.
& w. Street Railway got a knock on
the head last evening that came pretty
near flooring him, but luckily the blow
was a gancing one ana did no partic-
ular harm aside from giving him a
sore spot on the head. He was IN
charge of the . o'clock car from Win
throp and on the trip in, the trolley
wheel came off. The car came along
all right until it took the switch i'll
front of the postolfice when the troll
ley arm slipped from the wire and in
springing upright tore the trolley
catcher from its fastening on the rear
Of the car. The heavy iron ease which
holds tn. cord was yankcd into the
air and in coming down struck Con-
ductOr Locke on the back of tn" head.
lt was q lucky escape from a possible
serious injury.
