LEFT Lee AND
Arm SEVERED

Edward Dawson o' this city lies at
the Wil4lamsport hospital in a very
critica! condition as the result of be-
ing ron over.by the cars on Tuesday
evening.
Dawson was found lying beside the
?. d R. track near Chatham street,
Williamspors, frightiully injured.
The police ambulance made quick
response 20 a call and rushed the in
jured man to the Williamsport hospit-
al. An examination there showed that
both his left leg and left arm had been
severed by the cars and that he was
otherwise very seriously injured The
hospital authorities considered his
condition very grave.
How the injured man came to fall
from the train could not be determin-
ed by those who found him living had.
ly mangled beside the track. He an.
parently either slipped or was Jared
off andYdropped between the cars So
that the wheels Of several cars ran
over him.
Edward Dawson is the son Of IsaiaE
Dawson and brother of William
Dawson Of THIS city. lie is still com
parsti7ely young man and has resided
in Danyille practically ali his life
Latverly he made his home with his
brother.in-law, sThomas Wray, Cooper

The injured man, in company with
another young man. about three week
ago left Danville in search OF en-.
ployment. About week ago a postal
card was received from Dawson stat
ing that heswas homeward bound. Had
not the terrible accident betallen him
he would no doubt have arrived home

THE KANGAROO.
It's Hind Legs Are Most Formidable
Pair of Weapons.


The kangaroo seems poorly provid-
ed 10y nature with offensive weap-
ons. His powers of biting are not
formidable and his fore paws are SO
weak as TO seem almost rudimentary
members Of little use. His hind legs
are muscular and strong, but are ap-
parently of use only to assist fight
from his enemies. ON these hind legs
is found, however, a most formidable
weapon in the shape of a long claw as
hard as steel and sharp as a chiscl-as
terrible to dogs as the scythe chariots
Of the ancients were to their enemies.
When run down the kangaroo plac-
ing a tree behind him to protect his
rear, will seize in his fore paws such
indiscreet dogs as rush up TO him
and. holding them firmly, disembow,
them with sweep of his sickle-lllZe
claws
Even the hunters themselves thus
caught in the viselike grip Of an old
man kangaroo Of the larger breeds
have sometimes suffered in like man
ner and have now and then taken their
own turn at being hunted as the en-
ragged animals turned upon them and
attacked their horses with blind fe
rocity.-St James Gazette.

AN ARMY RIFLE
FOUND IN RIVER

Now that the river is falling very
low and the water is becoming clear
the channel now and then reveals an
object Of curiosity over and above the
big bass that may be seen disporting
themselves
This statement is abundantly borne
out by the experience OF Joe Smith the
south side barber, who while watch
ing the bass discovered an up-to.date
army rife half buried in sand OF the
river bottom. Yesterday morning by
means OF graphing iron he secured
the rife and it may be seen at his
residence near the foot OF Pine street
Mr.. Smith in his several trips made
daily over the bridge finds good deal
OF entertainment in watching the bass
that at intervals pass through the wat
er under the bridge. On Tuesday his
attention was attracted by scarcely
definable shape on the river bottom
between the second and thirl piers on
the Danville side, which seemed to
suggest gun partly buried in the
sand. He did not give the matter much
thought until yesterday morning when
he fancied that he could trace, under
six feet OF water, the outlines of q gun
barrel and portion Of 1.-THE leather
strap, both being q the sort shat be-
long 20 the modern army rife.

aud procuring boat rowed out TO the
spot, where he succeeded in fishing cut
the rifle.
a plate on the gun has the follow
ing: U. S. Springfield Armory Model
1908. No. l997SS."
How long the rife may have lain in
the water can not be ascertained but
il is badly corroded with rust, both
inside and outside the barrel. while
the woodwork is swollen. The gan
was evidently valuable one and with
a little cost can no doubt be Fl xed mp
as good as new.
J. lie rife is believed to belong to q
meuber Of the national guard OF Sun
bury, who is said TO have lost his gun
while crossing the river bridge on the
way home after participating in the
demonstration here on Memorial day.
1t would be difficult to imagine how
the gun came TO get into the river and
could probably be best explained by
the gUardsman himself.
