THIS BOY SAVED TWICE FROM DEATH Seven year old ohnny Sickman of West Hammond had a miraculous escape from instant death. This morning when he was struck eastbound I. H. Belt switch engine and drawn beneath the hug monster he experienced a second miraculous escape. The accident occurred at the Wentworth avenue crossing in West Hammond and how the lad escaped being ground to pieces is a miracle to those who witness the shocking scene. , He was on his way home and at the Wentworth avenue crossing he had to wait to let a westbound freight train go by and failing to hear the I. H. Belt switch engine coming down the eastbound track the youngster sttpped in front of it. Not until young Sickman did this did the engineer see the boy and he had no possible chance of stop ping his engine in time to avoid the accident. He saw young Sickman's body roll under the engine after being struck and could almost feel the youngster being ground to pieces. Applying the emergency brakes, the engine was brought to a stop. The enginer climbed out of his cab expecting to see the mangled remains of the victim. He could not believe his eyes when he caught sight of the little form lying along side of the track uninjured, but unconscious. - In the arms of one of the train crew little Johnny was hurried to the Hohman street crossing." Here he was placed in Burns ambulance and rushed to St. Margarets Hospital it was found that he suffered only a few scalp wounds and a few minor bruises. He was reported getting along nice ly this afternoon and after getting over the terrible shock he will be able go back to his home In "West Ham mond.

ROUGH EFFECTS WILL LEAD SPRING STYLES Marshall Field & Co. in their weekly review of the dry "good trade, say: "Styles in dress goods for the spring and summer are now well determined and it is apparent that the retailers have under-estimated their wants, especially in white goods and dress linens, and late recorders are taxing th productions of mills. Everything savoring of novelty In white goods, particularly the rough effects, sold welt for spring, and purchases of the more staple numbers were liberal. "Printed fabrics, wasn goods, and rough weaves, such as ratine and sponge cloth, in plain snades ana stripes, should be extensively represented in nearly all lines, as they will be popular. Crepe cloths or crystal crepes, in plain Bhades or narrow stripes with embroidered effects, are very new and will-be good. "Deep borders on . zephyrs, ratines, and voiles are extremely effective and stylish, and plain voiles, as well as with neat silk stripes, both woven and printed, are much in evidence." STATE SELLS SIX ACRES OF LAND An instrument entitled "A patent from the state of Illinois to the Irouols Iron company" was filed yesterday in the county recorder's office. It stated that the state of Illinois by virtue of an act of the general assembly entitled "An act for the sale to the Iroquois Iron company of the Interest of the state in certain lands, in force July, 1909," sold a strip of land along the Calumet river.
