CRUSHED BENEATH CABOOSE.
Robt. Malone, a little negro about
13 years of age, who loafs around the
depot and is said to have come here
from Jacksonport, tried to hop a
caboose Wednesday afternoon about
four o’clock as it passed the depot and
fell upon the track. The forward
wheels of the caboose ran over one
leg at the ankle, requiring amputation
at the knee.
The laws against hopping trains
should be rigidly enforced, for the
protection of senseless youths, who
jeopardize life and limb for such a
pastime.
