He attempted to beat a ride from the electric power house down to the depjt, and in some way his right leg got caught between the cars and badly crushed. He was taken to police Headquarters where Dr. Under treated his injuries. It is thought that his leg will have to be amputated, aa the bone ia badly crushed. The habit ot jumping on and off the trams at the stations is a bad one and veiy often results in serious conscquenoes. The experience of Counts should be a warning to others who persist i 1 this dangerous practice. Bon bona with crushed fruit at Carolina Drug Co's. fountain. Alliance Meeting.
