LOG TRAIN At
MOL|NO FIRED
ON NEAR TOWN
TWO NEGRO BRAKEMEN WERE
HIT BY SHOTS BUT NOT SERI-
OUSLY WOUNDED-NO CLUE
TO AMBUSHERS.

The Moline Advertiser, published
on Friday, printed the following:
AS the log train of the jacob
Lumber Co. was returning to Moline
at $50 Wednesday evening, and
when about eight miles west Of town,
unknown parties concealed in the
bushes alongside the track fired three
shots into the running train. George
Davis and Henry Williams, two col
ored brakemen, were hit by the shots,
but not seriously wounded.
Williams, who was riding on the
front of the engine, received charge
of No. A shot from one of the guns,
and Davis, who was on the rear of
the train, stopped charge of small
shot with his face, and a load of
bucskhot hit him in the legs and feet.
The train was heavily loaded, on a
steep grade, and could not be stopped
Immediately, and the perpetrators of
the crime weren OF discovered.
Efforts were made by Superinten-
dent jacob by long distance phone
to get dogs at Pensacol, Brewton, and
other points, but without success. Ow-
ing to the character of the ground
where the shooting occurred, dogs
would be necessary to make sue
cessful search.
The train was in charge of Engi-
neer Lee White.

Leland ]. Henderson, secretary of
the Columbus Chamber of Commerce,
who recently managed very success
full automobile trip from Columbus to

Mr.. Henderson says that the trip,
if made, will be before the bathing

LITTLE BOY IS
PAINFULLY HURT
BY AUTOMOBILE
ESSEX BLANCHARD, FOURTEEN
YEARS OLD, KNOCKED DOWN
AND RUN OVER BY LARGE
CAR ON PALAFOX STREET.

Essex Blanchard, IA years of age,
employed as a messenger in the Office
of the Western Union Telegraph Com
pany, was knocked down and dragged
by large Moon automobile, owned
and driven by DR.. M. Lischkoff last
night at 8:25 o'clock, at the intersec-
ton of Palafox and Intendencia
streets, and within a few moments
perhaps couple of hundred people
had gathered on the scene.
The injured lad was hurriedly
picked up by DR.. Lischkof and rush
ed to the Pensacola sanitarium, where
his injuries were given careful atten-
ton. At late hour the boy was re-
ported as having about recovered
from the shock and was doing as well
as could be, expected.
One bone was broken, it was stated.
That was in one of his legs, below
the knee. His face was lacerated,
and bruises were plentiful all over
his body, but it is not yet known
whether he sustained internal in
juries. The car was said to have
bowled him over for distance of
about forty feet. Several witnesses
said one wheel passed over his neck,
and when the car was brought to a
standstill, the rear wheels were rest
ing on his chest.
DIR. Lischkoff was arrested by Pa
trolman Aaron Kelly and he was sum-
moned to appear in the recorders
court this morning.
Dozens of witnesses were found
who stated that the car was not go
ing, at the time of the accident, faster
than the regulation speed, while 9TH
ers claimed just as strongly that the
car was moving very rapidly. DIR,
Lischkoff, in statement to the po-
liceman, was quoted by witness as
saying that he thought there was nc
necessity of the emergency brake
when the boy was struck.
Young Blanchard, it was told
stopped to have a few words with
the peanut man on the corner, and
after transacting this little business
mounted his wheel and started across
Palafox street, to the opposite side
Just in front of the Fisher Real Es-
tate Agency's Office he met the car
and was knocked from his wheel and
was bowled over, according to wit
nesses, for the entire distance over
Intendencia street. A woman scream
ed and the boy started to shrek This
attracted attention from people fo1
blocks, and considerable excitement
prevailed. The wheel ridden by the
boy was almost completely wrecked
and just how he escaped alive is un-
Iexplainable.
Family Suffers Much.
The Blanchard family has been
very unfortunate during the past few
months. The father, Gordon Blanch-
ard was operated upon about three
months ago and a kidney removed
About that time one of his daughters
suffered an attack of pneumonia. A
little later, after Mr.. Blanchard's re-
covery, his mother fell and broke her
hip, and two weeks ago one of his
daughters became i'll and died. Last
Sunday Mr.. Blanchard suffered an
other attack of kidney trouble and
was again operated upon. He is now
in the hospital critically i'll. He does
not know that his son also is in the
hospital seriously hurt.
