SOUTH SCRANTON NOTES.
Four-Year-Old Stanloy Bilkanskl
Kicked by a Horse An Unlucky
Italian Othor News Notos.
Stanley Bilkanskl, tho 4-yenr-old
child of A. Ullkanskl, of Schlmpff's
ccurt, was dangerously kicked In tho
abdomen by one of Hand's brewery
hoi-f-es on Monday evening while play
ing about the animal. Dr. Webb was
summoned und upon examination,
found that ho had sustained a rupture.
Last night the only chance to save
the boy's life lay In an opera' ion and
ho was accordingly taken to the
Scranton Private hospital, where he
was operated upon by Dr. Webb, as
sisted by several other physicians. Tho
boy Is in a critical condition.
UNLUCKY ITALIAN.
There Is an Italian laborer on the
South Side who Is employed by Con
tractor Coons to dig trenches, who
don't believe In dreams, signs or un
lucky numbers, yet his simple faith
was rudely broken on Monday after
noon In blasting rocks while dlejglng
tho sewer trench on Willow street.
On account of on unpronounceable
name, ho was known on the pay-roll
as No, 13, but he continued to Jraw
his pay regularly. Ho thought the
time-honored boodo connected with the
number 13 was nothing but a myth,
but his faith Is now cracked as is also
his head.
While blasting rock on Willow street
a large stone was thrown by tho ex
plosion In John's direction, but for
some reason John did not move out
of tho day and now he Is suffering
from a severe scalp wound. Hereafter
on Contractor Coon's pay-roll No. 13
will bo blank, and John will bo seen
carrying the left hind foot of a rabbit
for safety.
