RUN DOWN AND KILLED Old Man Crawling over a Trestle Mistaken for a Hog by an Engineer Orleans, Indiana, May 8-An old man named Hutchason (sic) was run over and killed by a train on the Orleans branch of the Monon yesterday at Lost River four miles south of here. Both legs were cut off above the knees. He was about 80 years old. He was crawling on the trestle and was mistaken by the engineer for a hog until too near to stop the engine. He is supposed to have been demented. His remains were taken to Paoli for burial.
