Last evening at about six-thirty
o'clock Chas. Regain, jr., who is about
nine years of age, while riding a new
bicycle north on La Fayette street, near
the La Fayette hotel ran in front of an
automobile running west on Main
street. The machine which is owned by
Loose and Gidley of Hebron was driven
by Geo. Gidley, who made frantic at
tempts to stop in time to avoid strik-
ing the boy who did not seem to be able
to control his bicycle, his being too
short to reach the pedals. His efforts,
however, were unsuccessful for he was
making a turn to the left to avoid an
automobile driven east by DR.. H. NJ.
Evans. The fender of the automobile
struck the rear wheel of the bicycle.
The boy was thrown under the auto
mobile and suffered a bad cut on the
back of his head and two badly bruised
legs which were run over by both the
front and hind wheels of the automo-
bile. Spectators thought that the lad
had been killed and were unanimous in
the exoneration of the driver from all
blame. The boy stood up after the
machine which stopped within about
forty feet of the collision had passed
over him. He was carried to his home
where DIR. E. H. Powell responded His
injuries are not considered dangerous.
The badly damaged new bicycle seemed
to worry him more than the pain of his
injuries and the people are congratulate
ing him upon his miraculous escape
from what was considered by the large
number of spectators as in slant death
