CHILD'S NARROW ESCAPE.
Thrilling Occurrence on Railroad
Near SaIters Depot.
! Kingstree, June 10:?Information
j has just been received here that the
two-year-old child of Mr Albert R
Moseley of Salters, while playing on
the railroad track, directly in front
of its home, at that place, had beet
struck by an extra freight train,
south, knocking it from the track
and some distance away. Drs Gamble
and Jacobs, of this place, went
, hurriedly to render medical assist:
ance, but very little hopes are enterI
tained for the child's recovery. Besides
internal injuries, which are serious,
the back of the child appears
| to be broken.
Later developments from Salters
show the child was not seriously injured,
as first reported. The act of
the engineer reads like fiction,in that
he saw the child on the track ahead
and, putting on emergency brakes,
he rushed out of his cab, reached for
the child and threw it off the track,
' seeing he could not stop the train.
I The injuries,therefore,that the child
i received were slight, resulting from
' the fall after having been thrown by
the engineer. Had it not been for
the heroic act on the part of the
engineer, the child would doubtless
have been mangled to death under
the train. The first report was that
obtained from a person coming for
the doctor.
Another Account.
Salters, June 10:?Innocent of an
almost certain death, James, the 2year-old
son of Mr Albert R Moseley,
of this place, toddled out in the
middle of the main track of the Atlantic
Coast Line, only a few yards
from his home, directly in front of
a fast-moving freight train, at
1 o'clock to-day,and was knocked off
t it * i* i i
oy me monster ireignt engine.
The engineer saw the child too
late to bring his train to a dead stop
before hittiug the child, although he
applied the emergency brakes rs
soon as possible, coming to a stop
about three car lengths past where
the child was struck.
A physician was called in immediately
and is reported to have said
that the child will recover.
The foregoing varying accounts of
an exciting occurrence, sent to the
News and Courier by its Kingstree
and Salters correspondents, respectively,
are not more contradictory
than the information we have been
able to obtain after careful inquiry
he Time I

from persons living at Salters.
One informant states th^t the
child was probably not on the main
line at all, but on the side or pass
track, and thai the engineer.fearing
the little one might get hirt from
too close proximity as the train
wenfby, stepped on the railing of
his engine and pushed him aside. It
is also stated that the engineer, in
his telegraphic report of the incident
to head-quarters, told that he had
shoved the child out cf danger.
On the other hand, Mr Moseley,
the father of the little boy, denies
positively that the engineer rescued
the child and states further that he
did not put on the emergency brakes
until the latter had been struck by
the pilot of the engine. Mr Moseb y
also avers that had the engineer exercised
due diligence and care he
could have stopped his engine be
j fore reaching the child. Mr Moseley
| also says that he is reliably informed
| that when he reached Charleston the
engineer admitted that he did not
j try to rescue the child and told that
, the engine had knocked him off the
track. How the little one escaped
being killed, Mr Moseley says, seems
almost miraculous. Just aftir th?
event took place, when he thought
his child was killed or mangled, he
had to bo restrained from violence
upon the person of the engineer,
who he said is to blame for it all.
; It is gratifying to learn, however,
! that the child is not seriously hurt
' and except for several bruises about
the hips and side seems no worse for
its perilous adventure.

FUGITIVE NEGKO RE-CAPTURED.
>t Blood Hounds Trailed Him Down
-Was a "Trusty.**
^ Jake McMillan, a chain-gang
^ "trusty," took a notion to walk off #
from the camp last Saturday, annexing
a pistol as he went. The two
g county blood-hounds were put on
IS
the trail and, from what can be
y learned, they did good work, trail^
ing the negro several miles and finally
bringing him to bay. Unfortun
' ately one of the dogs was killed by a
bullet from the negro's pistol, it is ./ j
supposed, although it is said that he
18 den es shooting the hound. At t ny
8 rate McMillan was re-captured and
' will probably be confined more closely
in future.
r" He is the negro, we are informed,
18 who was convicted of breaking into'
r" the depot at Gourdins last February
and is said to have about nine
r~ months more to serve before his .
ls sentence is completed. ^
v The chain-gang was encamped
s' near Trio when McMillan made his
ie escape.
