A NARROW ESCAPE
CHILD SAVED FROM DROWNING
BY r.. B. CARR.

Glen Lyn, Va. Sept 21.-On Sun
day evening while crossing over
East river on the Seanor Lumber
Company'S railroad bridge little
Frank, the four-year-old son of VII
liam Thornton, was Knocked OFF the
bridge by a small dog which he was
leading into the deep water. The
child was accompanied by his moth
er and one of his aunts, whose
screams or agonizlng walls were
heard by II. j. Carr, who lives two
hundred yards from the bridge.
Believing that some awful casualty
had occurred, he ran 20 them with
all haste, to find the child rapidly
sinking. without a moments delay
he climbed or rather dropped down
one of the piers OF the bridge, a dis
tance OF fifteen feet or more, to the
water, then wadng out from the
pier until the water ran over the
tips Of his shoulders, he reached
down into the water nearly two feet
and rescued the sinking child. Re
turning to the pier with the child
from whom life was nearly extinct,
he handed him up TO his aunt, d.
recting her to hold the little fellow
up by the heels and shake tIe wa
ter out Of him; then by the best
6nown methods Mr. Carr set up
artificial respiration and brought
the little fellow back to life.

IL was quite amusing Sunday last
TO see O'Tooie's clerks turn an ash

copies of the Leader in their post
office boxes. They would look
around to see sr they had been
caught with them, and II there was
any one looking onto the floor

find way later to get a chance OF
reading It.
AS an evidence of the ''respect''

said to one of his clerks: "Are yez
coming TO the convention" The
clerk replied. ''No, / think not. ("
We'll. yez had better come" said

This is the worst nigger-hugging
coon-kissing burg in the state.
Keystone is not in it, 1926. Why
these "nigger-huggers and coon
kissers" down here are not of hu-
man origin: they are spewed into
existence like maggots from a dung
hill-and they are proud of 1t.
There is nothing Hike resembling
Democratic organization in this
country. Something is wrong. sure,
