ACCIDENTS NARROWY AVERTED
Little Colored Girl Rescued —Close
This afternoon at 1:30 o'clock
Mounted Officer McDevitt rescued a
little colored child from a horrible
fate, grabbing her from in front of a
train of flat cars just as the wheels
were about to crush out her life.
It was just as the officer was pass
ing the crossing of the Southern Pa
cific railroad track at Crockett street
that he saw the train about to run
over the child, and it was only by a
miracle that the child was saved. The
name of the little tot was not learned
as it ran away to its home after the
officer had dragged it from in front ot
the wheels.
Dr.. J. S. Cameron, who was in a
uuggy with a friend, E. T. Smith, also
had a narrow escape from being
crushed by the cars at this place a
few minutes later, the engine striking
the horse on the nose and nearly
knocking the animal down. Dr. Cam
eron. however, ■tictceded in fulling
the horse out of harm's way.
