Jumped From the Train.

James W. Cowden was at Indianapolis last week, and returned on the early morning train Wednesday. He was on the rear end of the train and when it stopped for the station here, being so far , back, he thought they had not yet arrived at the depot, and he remained in his seat. The train started again and when he saw it passing the depot he jumped. He soaroely knew now it happened, but when he picked himself up he found that he had a bad gash in the back of his head, and p sprained neck and ankle. Instead of coming to town to have his injuries dressed, he started to his .home in the country, and by the time he reached there he was oovered with blood 1 and staggering like a drunken man. After being laid up for repairs a few days he was able to get to town again Monday,
