Dr.. CamerOn'S Son Badly Injured.

DIR. w. ID. Cameron. the we'll
known veterinary, has returned
from Wilkesbarre. Pa, where he
was called by telegram announc-
Ing the serious injury of his son,
Mr.. William ID. Cameron, who
was employed at the laundry of J.
NJ. Burdick.
The young man had gone out to
deliver = wagon load of laundry to
the little town of Forty Fort, about
3 miles from Wilkesbarre, and
while crossing the tracks of the ID. q.
l.. & W. Railroad. the wagon was
struck by one Of the big engines OF
that system. The young man was
thrown about forty feet, and when
picked mp was unconscious. He
was rushed to a hospital. and it
was found that he had received
three broken ribs, as well rs terri
BILE cuts about his face and head
The wagon and packages of laun-
dry were completely destroyed,
but, strange To say, the horse was
uninjured.
Young Cameron is now believed
to be entirely out of danger, al
though physicians say he will be
confined to his bed for six or eight
weeks longer.
As soon as he is able to get out,
Mr.. Cameron will probably appear
against the railroad company, as il
is claimed that the accident could
easily have been averted if the
engineer had shut off his engine as
soon as he saw that the engine
would strike the wagon at the
great speed being maintained.

bravest, and at the time of supreme
trial was always equal to the
demands on his firmness and forti-
tude; he faced death with calmness
on many battle-fields, and bore on
his body wounds inflicted by the
enemy. He took an active part in
the organization Of this Camp. was
