Whittle, With Their Families, Hurled From a High Grade in Mill Valley. et The courage and presence of mind dis- played yesterday by 12-year-old Alfred Whittle, son of A..L. Whittle, paying tel- ler of the San Francisco Savings Union, averted a fearful accident on the line of the Mt. Tamalpais Scenic Railway to a party from this city. Before he had an opportunity, however, to display his hero- ism, the party, consisting of Charles L. Dav receiving teller of the San Francis- co Savings Union, M Davis, Mr. and Mrs. Whittle, the boy’'s parents, and his two sisters, Bessie and Grace, had been precipitated from a bus over a ten-foot embankment onto the tracks. All heard the whistle of an approaching train, but with the exception of the boy they either had not the presence of mind or were so pinned down that they could not get out of the overturned bus. The herofsm of young Whipple grew with the proximity of the danger. He extricated himself from the w k and without a moment's hesitation ran as fast as he could up the track and flagged the train with his coat.

Dunster, who was killed last Friday by the breaking of a ladder on a building at Thirteenth and Howard streets, may compel the Mayor to mix law with politics, and stand a suit for damages for criminal neglect. Dunster, w carpenter and had been sent to fix the roof of the building, which could be reached only by an im- provised ladder up the fide of the house. The ladder broke when Dunster was near the top and he fell fifty feet to the ground. The building is owned by Mayor Phelan, and at the inquest to be held at the Morgue to-morrow morning Phelan and his agent, R. D. McElroy, will be the principal witnesses. Dunster's death leaves a family of chil- dren dependent upon the oldest boy, for the mother has been dead for some years. The son was at the Morgue yes- terday, and he declared it to be his in- tention to bring suit against Phelan, he says his father's death was due to the rotten condition of the ladder, for which condition Phelan was directly responsible and of which he had had no- tice. —_————— Trapper's Ofl cures rheumatism & neuralgla.
