SINGULAR ACCIDENT TO A FOOTBALLER.
« [BY TELEGRAPH. —OWN CORRESPONDENT.] Thames, Sunday. Jim Jordan', a well-known footballer, met with a peculiar accident whilst playing in a football match yesterday. Be was running with the ball, and in attempting to fend off an opponent, struck his right hand with such force against the latter .as to break it across the back. It is probable he will have to wear splints for about six weeks, and will be incapacitated from the game for the remainder of the season.
