CHOPPED OFF THE TREE LIMB
ON WHICH HE WAS SITTING
Charles Wagner Falls Fifteen Feet as
Result of Absent Mindedness.
Charles Wagner, who is known by
the breezy sobriquet of “Windy,” nar
rowly escaped serious injury some
days ago when he fell fifteen feet
with a tree limb on which he was sit
ting and which he cut off in a state
of absent mindedness. Charles Coach,
who was with him at the time, tells
the story. Mr. Wagner decided to
climb up a tree to cut ofF branches
wnich were too close to whero the
sparks came from the stove pipe.
Taking a perch on one stout limb he
cut ofT several others and then the
! world seemed to fall away beneath
j him, or rather to come towards him.
The cause of the catastrophe only be
came known after an investigation
which showed that “Windy” had am
putated his own limb. “I’ve heard of
the Irishman that hung on to a rope
and cut it off above his head,” says
Mr. Coach, “but this was a new one.”
Mr. Wagner was not injured and has
brought to town ten lynx and ten
mink skins as compensation
