Boy Died From Injuries.

Albert Sweet, the 17-year-odd Lafayette lad who was so badly crushed here while stealing a' ride from Chicago on train No.' 3, where in company with two other boys he had gone and vainly sought for employment, died Thursday at his home in Lafayette. The boy was ridiing the blind baggage, and when the train backed up here, having run past the station, he was caught in the blind vestibule and crushed between the cars, death resulting from the effects of the injuries received here the Sunday night previous.
