Stinson With Central Vermont Train Bearing Down on Him—Rescued by Narrow Margin From What Looked Like Sure Death. —— By a margin of about two feet, Wil- liam E. Stinson snatched Jack Devlin from the path of a train bearing down upon him on the railroad bridge at the Falls Tuesday. about noon and saved him from what would probably have been certain death. Up to the moment of the rescue Dev- lin had evidently been unconscious of the approach of the train, but when the train had rushed by and he stood safe through the nervy and perilous | risk that Mr. Stinson teok to save him he leaned up against the fence nad exclaimed: “Ti:at was a close shave!” As the Central Vermont train was heard approaching the bridge Devlin sent a thrill of horror down the spines of scores of people who saw him starting to cross the bridge directly in the path of the train. In his intoxi- | cated condition, according to witnesses of the occurrence, he did not notice the train nor heed the shouts of warning that were sent after him, and he kept on with apparent intention not to turn back. = Young Mr. Stinson, who is the son of Capt. Edward ¥, Stinson of the Chem- ical company at the Falls station, was near by and ssw the peril that Devlin was in. He saw also how little time he had to get the man off the oridge, but with the nerve of a hero he made a rush to reach him and suceeeded in dragging him backward off the bridge Just before the train caught them. But for the help that was given him Devlin would in all probability have been ground to death under the wheels and Mr. Stinson was warmly compli- mented for hi sheroic and successful effort in saving the man. | SPORTSMEN SEE GOOD SEASON AHEAD. Game Birds Most Plentiful in Years— Rabbits About Average — Many Quail and Partridge. Sportsmen who have had opportuni- ty to visit the woods and fields during the latter summer and the residents of the rural disiricts agree that game birds are going to be the most plenti- ful this fall in a number of year: Squirrels and rabbits are reported in average numbers, except that in cer- | tain sectio where the finetooth comb method of hunting the wild bunnies with ferrets day and night has sadly 1a d the number of the cottontails. ! will be found in far greater numuoers than any time in some years.

Mi-o-na Will Prevent Further Trouble Here, as in other cities and towns, stomach troubles are ensnaring vic- tims In a most insidious way. Nearly everyone is ill-treating the stomach, perhaps unconsciously, but the time comes when we cannot abusa it with impunity. Nature warns us. Distress after eating, belching of gas, that lump of lead feeling in the stom- ach, headache and lack of energy, are warning signals. Now-—at once —is the time to stop this distress.
