TRIED TO BOARD EXPRESS
Raymond Knapp Was Thrown on His
 Face and Rendered Unconscious.

Raymond Knapp of North Windham attempted to board the Boston express as it was pulling out of the local sta- tion Saturday noon and had a narrow escape from serious injury. He was on Railroad street when the train started and ran down the street to get on. He grabbed at the railing of the platform of the rear car and was swung into the air and he landed on his face in the slush and ashes. He was rendered unconscious for awhile and was taken in the railroad station and physician sent for. By the time the doctor had arrived Knapp had recovered and showed no signs of in Jury other than a lacerated face. The express does not stop at North Wind ham but he evidently forgot about that when he attempted to board the train while 1t was in motion.

This fish, which is fat and comfortable
looking, about a foot long as rule,
makes a distinct hoOting noise from
the back of his throat when landed in
a net or caught on long line. A net
full of these fish, though they are rather
rare, is sometimes caught, and when
they are hauled in the chorus Of sharp,
siren-like boots is very startling to a
stranger.
