Charles MILLER, in attempting to get on a moving sloven, was thrown down, his head going between the spokes of the wheel. Miller was carried around with the wheel until his head struck the iron axle, crushing in his skull. He was carried home in an unconscious condition. Little hopes are entertained for his recovery.
