LITTLE BOY IS MAIMED BY THE CARS.
The eight-year-old son of Forg Moore, the section boss, got his right foot mashed so badly Thursday forenoon, by the local frieght while it was taking the bide track east of the depot, that it was necessary to amputatate it above the ankle. Several boys of about the same age were with him at the time and had been catching onto the cars, but the injured lad says he was only trying to cross the track when caught.
