Hits Victim at Corner of
First Avenue.

Stepping in front of a Fruitvale
car. near First street and Yakima
avenue, last night at II o'clock, Mike
Davern was hurled to the pavem ent,
sustaining wounds that were at first
thought fatal. 1t was later given out
that he would recover unless a frac-
ture at the base of the skull had been
suffered.
The car, under the direction of
Conductor c. F. Beck and Motorman
Jake Clavenger. was "dead-heading'
through town on its last trip when
Davern, with a companion. stepped
close to the track. The motorman,
thinking he wished to ride, changed
his bell but did not stop the car.
Davern's friend stopped but Claven-
ger says the victim stepped ahead
after the front of the fender passed
him and caught his toe in the fling
ers."
Dragged Fifty Feet.
Before the car could be stopped
the unfortunate man had been drag
ged forty or fifty feet. and when
picked up was unconscious and COW
cred with blood. Most of this, II
was afterward found out, came from
the nose.
Dr. ]. NJ. Cameron who was near
the scene OF the accident helped
carry the victim to his office in the
Sloan building. where an examina

serious it was impossible to ascer
