Read More	WILCYNSKI Stanislaus Wilcynski, the nine-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. S. Wilcynski, residing in the south part of town, was truck by a Union Pacific engine last Wednesday afternoon at 3:30 o'clock, and received injuries from which he died at nine o'clock that night. The accident occurred near the coal chutes at the approach from the west of a special freight train running as second section of No. 10. According to the story of Engineer Frank Smith the boy was walking along the main line track, his attention apparently absorbed in watching the elevation of a car of coal at the chute. He was then at a safe distance from the track, but just as the train was upon him he turned and came within the danger limit. The boy was struck full in the forehead by the heavy pilot beam, which projects from the engine. His skull was crushed in and fractured in several places along the top of the head. He never regained consciousness after the accident. He was removed at once to the office of the company surgeons, but from the first no hope was entertained for his recovery, and it is considered almost remarkable that the boy lived as long as he did. The funeral was held this morning from the Catholic church. Coming at this time when the local authorities have commenced a crusade to stop the playing of young boys about the railroad yards, the accident has had a decided effect in quelling the nuisance, which the officers hope may continue until the practice may be stopped effectually.
