A little white dog that was the cause, of Eisenbisz’ injury isn’t hurt a bit. He was a pet bought recently by the mail man, and it was to chase him out of danger that Eisenbisz ventured on the track when the train was but 75 feet away. according to pamaness who witnessed the acci- nt. The dog scampered off the track as Eisenbisz yelled and waved his arms, but the mail man had miscal- culated distance and time, and be- fore he could step to the station plat- form, the pilot of the engine struck him a glancing blow and toppled him there. When brought here, an X-ray negative was made, but no broken bones were revealed. Eisenbisz suf- fers pain in the chest and it may be veral days before the nature of his hurts is determined. Eisenbisz evidently was confused, as there were three trains at that point at the time, the freight pass- ing through, as he says he has no recollection of how the accident oc-
