Robert Fletcher, a two-year col- ored convict, sent from McCracken | YOUN® Man Found Near the/Passed Away at Coal Dock. the) BADLY PARALYZED. Had Been Sent Down After a Sack of Corn—Found Un- conscious. THOUGHT TO BE VERY BADLY HURT. | | Joe Ross, a 15-year-old boy, who lives six miles from the city on the Tennessee river, just above the mouth of Clark’s River, was founa in j critical condition near the coal dock at the foot of Court streets this ‘morning shortly before 7 o'clock. | He was lying partly across and | partly between two skiffs, and was first found by the watchman on the dock, In a short time, G, Moyer, the lad’s step-father, was at the dock, having gone down to ascertain what detained his step-son, whom be had sent down to the skiff aftera sack of corn he wished to have ground. They came down in a skiff before daylight this morning, and after landing and tying up their boat they went to the market house. ‘The step-father then sent the boy after the corn and being alarmed at his prolonged absence went down ta investigate its cause, He found that the boy had already been found. His hands and face wrre besmeared with coal dust, and his feet were in the water. He was irrational, and could give no account of himself. It seemed that he had fallen, and his spine was burt. He was taken tothe city hall and placed ‘on a cot, where his cries of pain could be heard for quite n distance. He could not lie down, but constantly sat in a stooping posture, eyes half closed, with head swaying from side to sic He moved his haods con- stantly, a8 one trying to swim, He is subject to epileptic fits, and probably fell from an attack and was thus injured. Doctors Brothers and Robertson made an examination of the boy this morning, and found him suffering from paralysis of the brain, There are no signs of violence on his per- son, however, and they could not ac- count for the injury, His step-father said the statement that the boy had been subject to fits was erroneous. He has bad chills and headaches, but no fits. He has never had any trouble with his head except headache. City Physician Williamson declin- ed to admit the boy to the city hos- pital, as he is a non-resident, and Mayor Yeiser being out of the city, | the patient was compelled to spend the day ona cot in Judge Sanders’ At Morton’s Opera House Tomor- row Night, There are several things about (A Jolly Night,’ which is to be seen here tomorrow night, calculated to make a man forget bis troubles and iwagine he bas strack it sich in the Kion like gold flelds of the Yukon, The merits of the play lie in its comi- cal situations, ludicrous compl tions and bright, sparkling dialogue.
