Davis, of Philipsburg, formerly of Bellefonte, was killed by the locomo tive of a coal train on Friday last, the 28th of December, about five o'clock in the afternoon. The poor little fellow was coasting on his sled and riling with him behind was another little boy by the name of McKinuey. The latter threw himself off the sleJ on seeing the locomotive, but little Chester was too much frightened to do that aud could not stop the sled, and so ran right un der tho engine. His left leg from the knee was crushed all to pieces and his skull broken. There was a cut four inches long on the left side of his head, a cut under his chin and five scars on his face. He would have been run o ver by the second car had not a boy ptilleu him out just in time. He was only seven years, 4 months and 15 days old and ivas a bright and attractive lit tle fellow.
