BOY RUN OVER BY AUTO
AND WAS UNINJURED
Bismarck, N. D., May 25.—How it was possible for a seven-year-old boy to be run over by an automobile and escape injury was demonstrated on the streets of Bismarck when Harlow Griffin, son of I. W. Griffin, was struck by a Ford car owned by W. E. Breen, a well known farmer. The little fellow was riding a velocipede and had started across the street when he was run over. The frame work of his velocipede covered him as the car passed over him, and he only sustained a scratched elbow. The little fellow was more concerned about his velocipede than the accident that might have caused his death.
