Montana Lad Has Both Legs Frozen, but May Live.
Butte, Mont., 27.-For fifteen hours eleven -year-old Frank Engstrom of Georgetown, a mining camp near Anadonds, was treed by a mountain lion a few nights ago while the thermometer registered thirty-five degrees below zero. Later the little fellow was brought to Butte and two frozen legs had to be amputated in an effort to save his life.
The surgeons hope to pull him through, but the boy pleads that he would rather be dead than a cripple.
