TRAINMASTER FALLS < :.
 IN LEAVING TRAIN
J. H. BARNETT, IRON MOUNTAIN OFFICIAL, MEETS VIII SEKI-
 OUS ACCIDENT HERE.
Right Foot Is Badly Crushed-Has Been Educating Public. In
 "Safety First.,

J. H. Barnett, trainmaSter on the Valley division of the Iron Mountain, with headquarters at McGehee, suf- fered very painful and serious ac' .cident in this city yesterday at 12:45 D. m., when he failed to practice doctrine which he has been preach ing to employees of the road on this division-"safet first"
 When No. 156, a through freight from Little Rock to McGehee, was pulling into the local yards, MT. Barnett attempted to alight from the train at the crossing on Main street, at Fourth avenue. His foot slipped from the step on the side of the car and MT. Barnett fell to the street in such a manner that his right foot was caught and badly crushed by the wheels. He had presence of mind to draw his limbs up after the wheel had mangled his foot, thereby prob ably averting more serious accl- dent.
 The injured man was carried in to Mullikin S store and an ambulance summoned. He was taken to the Davis Hospital and after an eXamina- tion by the attending surgeon, it was found that the injured member would not have to be amputated, but that Mir. Barnett would be confined to his room for some time, as the injury is a very serious one, the bones being broken and crushed and the flesh badly lacerated.
 At late hour last night MT. Bar nett was resting as well as could be hoped. He will probably be remov- ed to the Company hospital at an ear ly date.
