A Terrible licutli.
Conrad Cramer, a boy of fifteen years,
met his deatli Tuesday, in a manner ns hor
rible as it was singular. Ho had been em
ployed in hauling coal dirt from a culm pilo
to tho lioilcr house fct the Hollenbaek shaft,
near Wilkes-Barre. The dirt was placed in
a car which ran over n narrow track laid
on the top ofthe coal culm, and lo which a
mulo was attached. It was tho habit of tlio
boy to jump uhjii tho inulo's back, after
dumping the load, and lido over tho return
trip. Uuesday tiro liiulo acted badly, and
on several occasions attempted to throw bis
rider, hut Iho lad clung to hint, greatly to
tho amusement of n largo gang of men who
wero employed In the vicinity, and who
laughed heartily nt what they termed tho "
mule's " circus tricks." But their mirth
wns suddenly turned to mourning. Tho
persistent elloits of tho mulo to throw hu
rider, ended ut Inst in success, nnd in falling
off tho boy's legs became entangled ju tho
harness, when tho Inylo began to kick
furiously ut tho lad. Before nssistanco ar
rived, Iho animal? fairly enraged, bounded
forward, and, with the speed of tlio wind,
ran off towards a picco 01 woods near by; the
body of the poor lnd, in themeanllmc, being
dragged ulon over sharp stones, ragged
boulders and innumerable ugly projections.
The boy hung directly in front ofthe mule'a
loreieg, and when llio animal stopped,
which ho did when he renched tho woods,
he seized ono of tho boy's unns ill his teeth
and literally toroit Into fragments. Ho then
attacked other portions of the bruised and
bleeding body, nnd with n fl.ndish malig
nity toio open tho breast, thigh and back,
laying tlio lion'es baro in many places.
Thoso who witnessed the fight of tho mule
hurried to the nssistanco of the boy, as
quickly as possible; but when they reached
him lifo was extinct and tho body mangled
beyond recognition. Tho old miners wio
had looked Uh)ii death in almost every form,
turned their heads away involuntarily,
sickened at tho horrible sight beforo them.
