SWITCHMAN HAS HIS RIGHT I
LEG MANGLED; AMPUTATION I
NEAR HIP WILL BE NECESSARY I
C. H, Schaeffer, 24 years, an em
ployee of the Ogden Union Railway &
Depot. company, had his right leg badly
mangled this afternoon at about 12:30
o'clock in the local railroad yards
when caught between two cars. His
left leg was also badly Injured. Ampu
tation of the right leg near the hip
will probably have to be resorted to.
Dr. R. S. Joyce attended the injured
man at the Dee hospital.
Just how the nccldont occurred
could not be ascertained this after
noon, as no statement had been made
by the victim who was alone when It
occurred. Schaeffer was not complete
ly alone at his work, but no other
person was close at hand and there
was no eye-witness to the accident.
It Is presumed, from the circum
stances, that the man was trying to
adjust a coupling knuckle, as he had
gone between two cars that ho was at
tempting to couple together. Evidently
the cars were moved, while he was be
tween them, and he was knocked down
and thrown under the moving wheels
before he was able to get clear, fie
was conscious when found but was too
weak to mako a statement, although
he said that he had gone between 1 1 e
cars and was knocked down.
Both legs of the man were mangled
to such an extent that they will prob
ably have to be amputated. It may be
possible to savo tho left leg, whkl
was not so badly injured as the other.
The wheels of the car passed over the
legs of the man. injuring the left belov,
dleabra and the favors were a tiny
American flag. A musical program
followed the banquet and closed the
evening's entertainment.
nn
the knee and the right leg from th
ankle to the hip The right leg was
mere pulp for several inches near the
ankle and tho thing was also so bad
ly maneled that it is doubtful If it can Jjl
be saved.
The men was found shortly after
ward, his absence being noted when
ho did not give a signal, by his com
rades and a call for an ambulance and
a doctor sent out at once. The Kirken
dall ambulance was called to the scene
of the accident, which occurred about
the center of the local yards and be
tween Twenty -seventh and Twenty
eighth streets. When the ambulance
driver arrived no doctor had yet
reached the scene and the driver be
gan to cut away the clothing from the
injured partB.
Dr. R. S. Joyce was called on the
case and ordered the injured man
rushed to the hospital where treat
ment was administered. At the hos
pital it was discovered that the case,
while very serious, was not necessar
ily fatal.
Schaeffer was married about a year H
ago to an Ogden girl who Is now in H
dejieate health. They moved recent- H
ly to a number in the 200 block on H
Twenty-eighth street. Schaeffer was H
m experienced switchman and had
been In the employ of the local com- H
pany since last October He and his
v.ife recently made a trip east as I
sightseers. They just returned a few I
lays ago and he rosumcd his work in
the yards. H

who desires to take this piece of land ,
may cultivate it. rent free. The only
problem is water. The railroad com
pany owns the water right from which
It would be served, but Mr. Burt be
lieves the railroad company would be
glad to donate tho water, if asked, or
at least to furnish It for a nominal
sum.
One or tho letters received this
morning by Mr Burl came from Mrs.
A- E. Helms of Ely, Nev., and offers
the use of 8 acres of land. The letter
Is as follows: 1
"Mr. Thomas G. Burt, chairman of
committee. Lear Sir: I see by the j
Standard that you are chairman of tho
garden committee. I do not know if i
this offer will come under your activ- jj
ities or not. but I have twenty acres of j
land at Orchard station which Joins Jj
land owned by Mr. Wherry and J. C.
Nye. Twelve acres of this is in fruit j
and eight acres is not under cultlva
tlon. Now I would like to donate that
eight acres, If any one would like to
plant it The canal joins it, but the
ground might be too high to be water
ed easily, but with a little work it
could bo done.
"My brother, J. E, Criter, at 2S71
Wall avenue, has charge of the fruit
thlfl vear. If any ono is interested in
it. they can talk to him. He can answer
nu istions, I thought it would be a
shame to have it stand idle when it Is
needed so much.
"Yours truly,
(Signed) "MRS. A- E. HELMS'
