 Singer Dies from Injuries Poy Struck by uto.

Frank Howe, foreman of the repair ing department of the c, B. Cottfell & sons plant, was suddenly stricken un- conscious while at the railway station Saturday night, awaiting a train to make visit to Philadelphia. MT. Howe was found by boy named Michael Sullivan lying on the floor of the toilet room, and his condition was reported to Ticket Agent Golden.
 MT. Howe was taken into the wait ing room, and Dr. Scanlon was sum- moned. He found that the unconscious man was afflicted with urenic convu- sions. He was taken to his home, ac- companied by the physician, and 1t was several hours before he regained consciousness. Saturday he had fully recovered and was able to be about as usual.
 An illustration of the difficulty in identifying persons whose expression is chang, while in a state of uncon- sciousness is given in this case. One of the friends of MT. Howe, who was to make the trip to Philadelphia with him, assisted in handling Mir. Howe at the station, and even removed his col lar aHd necktie, but never for a mo- meRt suspected the unconscious man was his friend.
