KILLED IN A BREACH.
A Hoy I' alls
oily I'ect mid Pies Prom
tho Hfl'eclH.
A sad accident occurred shortly after four
o'clock vostotday afternoon at otio of tho
mluo breaches near tho northern end of Slain
street, by which n young ton of W. Thomas
Lee, tho Hast Coal atreet saloonkeeper,
sustained injuries from which ho has slnio
died.
The vlrtlm and another boy of about the
same ago strolled up tho mountain and, in
stead of following the public highway that
skirls the breaches 011 tho north side, they
cut off distauco by crossing the field on tho
south sice. Thero is a fenco between tho
field In which the old Kohley l!un stahlo Is
located and the breaches. At tho place whero
tho victim attempted to pass tho path be
tween tho fence and tho brink of the breach
is less than two feet wide and slopes treacher
ously. The companion passed over the placo
safely, but young Leo failed. As Lee fell
tho companion screamed and ran away from
the place with all possible speed.
Tho accident was witnessed by several men
who wero lounging ou tlio neighboring
knolls mid several of them hurried to tho
victim's relief. They found him uncon
scious and blood was (lowing profusely from
tho head, which was terribly mashed. Tlio
boy was quickly removed to the homo of his
parents and Drs. O. SI.-Hamilton, SI. S.
Kistler and J. 1'ieico Huberts wero sum
moned. Thoy found that tho skull of tho
child was terribly mashed and the light
thigh fractured. After a consultation it was
decided to perform an operation,
as tlio only means of saving tho
life. Tho scalp was laid open nnd
tho do'.tors found tlio cntiro top part of
tho skull crushed. Pieces aggregating In size
the length and width of a man's hand were
lemnvoil. After cleaning tho exposed brain
and lelaylng nnd dressing tho scalp, tho
doctors said that for tho time there was noth
ing else to bo done hut constant careful nurs
ing and give nature a chance to assert her
Fell'. The child died shortly after 0110 o'clock
this morning.
In his fall into tho breach tho child dropped
pcipcndicularly a distance of fully forty feet,
tho top of his head apparently striking
squarely 011 jagged locks at tho bottom. It
is Miiprising that death was not instantanc'
ous. The victim would lmvo been nino years
old on tlio 11th of November, next.

That it is a success was demonstrated by our
test made last week in full view of the public.
Considering the difficulties the test was made
under, the stove really excelled nil guarantees
which accompanies a sale. This range was
shipped direct from the factory, was never
subject lo even a fire, and after the first match
was applied, it was ready for baking purposes
in two hours.
Two pans of biscuits, six
do.en In all, one pan on the
bottom and the other on
the shelf, were baked
brown In less than twenty-flve
minutes, and distributed among
the spectators as a sample of Its
baking qualities.
The same test and results will be derived
in cooking and roasting.
This range, "The Cinderella" Is daily dis
played on the sidewalk in front of our store.
An invitation is extended to all to call und
examine it. Several of them have alreudy
been sold, and only tlie highest words of
praise are expressed by the pin chasers.
