NARROWLY ESCAPES DEATH.
Pleas Young a Well.known Citizen of Madison Hit by Rock Island
 Freight Train.

Pleas Young citizen of Madison, started out some time Tuesday night to walk along the Rock Island rail- road track on his way home from this city. 1t is supposed that when he had reached point in the cut a short distance east of this city, he sat down on the tarck to rest, and this action upon his part came very nearly resulting in his death. Rock Island freight train No. 92, east, a short time later ran into Young, knocked him from the track, cutting and skinning his head and bruising his back and hip.
 The man lay in an unconscious condition beside the rails until the westbound Cotton Belt passenger train, coming into this city shortly before midnight, picked him up and brought him back to the station here. where the company physician was summoned by the train crew. Young s wounds were bound up and he was sent in buggy to his home at Madi- son Wednesday morning about : o'clock The physician who attended Young said that he did not think the mans injuries would prove fatal.
 Young has wife and several small children who reside at Madison, foul miles east of Foraest City.
