Fourteen-year-old George Brightof of No, 720 President street, Brook- lyn, weighs nearly 200 pounds, but he’s a Boy Scout and goes on tramp- ing trips with companions of less weight. He started on one to-day with five small companions, and was aboard a ten-car subway train bound for the Bronx when it pulled into the Borough Hall station in Brooklyn. The boys were skylarking on the rear platform of the last car, and Brighton was thrown from his feet when the car switched around the curve entering the station, He com- plained that his left ankle hurt. He tried to rise, but couldn't, and be- cause of his weight and the pain which. their exertions caused him the other boys couldn't raise him. They ran through the car Ro- tified the guard, and the train was held up seven minutes while a police- man was notified and Dr. Auerd called from Brooklyn H He found that the youngster’s left ankle had been broken in his fall, and got him up to the ambulance on a stretcher. The youngster kept his nerve like a real soldier and laughed and joked with the doctor, though his face was white and he was near fainting. He was taken to the hospital and his parents were notified. ee eS TO DANCE FOR CHARITY. dance will be given on March 20, at Delmon- THE EV CARNIVAL SUNDAY EVENING FREMSTAD Russian Symphony Orchestra, Modest Altschuler, Conductor. 50c Reserved Seat Prices ENING SUN’S MADISON SQUARE GARDEN Three Monster Concerts, Saturday Matinee, Saturday and Sunday Evenings Direction of Julius Hopp, Mgr..
