HURT WHEN ABOUT TO
ENTER CAR.

While standing at the transfer point
at First and Broad streets yesterday
afternoon, Mrs, w. r. Farrell, OF 21oo
East Franklin street, was knocked
down by q negro who jumped from the
car she was about to board, and was
seriously injured.
Joseph O'Flaherty. friend OF the
family, and others who witnessed the
accident, rushed to her side, and INT
ed her to her feet. She was on the
verge of falnting. but refused to have
the city ambulance called, and asked
to be taken home on a street car at
once. Sergeant Neisz came up, and
made a report Of the occurrence,
The negro escaped in the crowd and
confusion which followed, and no one
was able to obtain description of
him.
Mrs. Farrell was lifted into the

stop to apologize. She was about to
board the car and was caught OF her

platform in his haste to catch a
