A Narrow Escape at the Depot Yesterday. Lehigh SAVED BY THE CONDUCTOR A Brakeman Loses a Thumb While Coupl ing CarsA Broken Rail Struck by a Train Near Audenricd. A Pole named John Hoscowltcz, who attempted to board a passenger train at the Lehluh Valley depot yesterday after noon, to go to Mt. Cnrmel, almost suc ceeded in going to that place n mangled, corpse. The prompt action of Conductor Reeves saved the man. Boscowitcz arrived at the depot ns the train was starting. He attempted to jump on the front steps of the first car nnd his foot slipped. He hnd' hold of tin platform Tailing and this caused his body to swing around between the car and the engine's tank. Reeves, who was stnndlng on the car platform, grabbed the. man by the arm and pulled him around to the steps as he was about to drop to the track. Had the Pole fallen nothlug could have saved his body from being crushed by the wheels, 1 Harry Taylor, a freight train brakemanj lost the thumb of his left hand Saturday Afternoon while coupling cars at the, Lehigh Valley depot Dr. Hamilton tern porarlly dressed the member and it was subsequently amputated at the Miners' Hospital,, . Passenger train No. 108, of the Lehigh Valley railroad, bound from Hazleton for Delano Saturday afternoon, narrowly escaped disaster near Audenrled by strik ing a broken rail. Two cars left tbe track, but did not run far from it, nnd the train proceeded on its journey after a delay of half an hour. Several passengers wero pretty well shaken up, but nonesustalued injury. A man who was n passenger on the Lehigh Valley train bound from Mt. Cnrmel to Centralia yestetday afternoon made himself obnoxious to the passengers by indulging in a flood of foul language in the presence of ladles on the train. He gave the conductor a ten-dollar bill to pay fare to Centralla. and to get'ehange the conductor was obliged to consult several passengers. This seemed to vex tbe man nnd when the change was given blm he challenged the railroad man to step out on the Centralla depot platform to flight (or another ten-dollar bill. Judg Ing from the action of the passenger it was evidently, his hope that the conductor would not be able to get change and there would be a free ride, but the conductor nipped the dodge.
