4 SUICIDE.
!. As result of being gored by a
vicious bull at the Methodist Orphan
age, Norfolk, George D. Powell, fifty
+ five years old, is patient at Me
mortal Hospital. Mr.. Powell was
gored in the left shoulder and thigh,
and it is feared that one of his lungs
was pierced. He was attacked by the
bull while helping two men who
bought the animal to get it off the
premises. After knocking him down
the animal is said to have stood over
him, paving the ground and below
ing loudly. So ferocious did the bull
become that his purchasers decided
to leave it on the orphanage grounds
temporarily.
While being taken to Marion on a
train yesterday afternoon, Walter
Stanley jumped through a window,
receiving severe cuts about the head
and body and a broken leg. The
guard had four insane patients un-
der his care, and Stanley, who had
been quiet and rational, was given
a seat ahead of the guard, who had
more difficult patients to look after.
When the train neared Singer and
was moving about thirty miles an
kour, Stanley leaped through the
window. The train was not brought
to stop for more than mile and
then was moved back and the in
jured man picked up.
Despite the fact that her hull is
100 years old, the historic frigate
Franklin, used for more than quar-
ter of century as receiving ship
at Norfolk, may again sail the seas.
The historic old ship was sold at auc-
ton at the Norfolk navy yard, sew
eral months ago to Henry Hitner
Sons Of Philadelphia. The price was
less than $4,000. Her bottom, is said
to be covered with valuable copper,
and her owners are said to have. Sc
cured a bargain when they bought
her for less than $4,000. Her owners
are contemplating fitting the old ship
up ard sending her to sea as freight
carrier. The Franklin now lies partly
submerged at the Norfolk navy yard.
She will be pumped out and towed t.
Philadelphia, where she will be made
ready to go to sea again as q sailing
vessel.
