D. S ELDER DRAGGEDTQDEATH BY SADDLE HORSE Frits B. Ellenberger, son of Fred Ellenberger of Alkali canyon, met a horrible death Saturday through be ing thrown from his horsj and drag ged for a distance of several hundred yards. Uls lifeless body was found some hours later hanging against a gate through which - his frightened horse, had plunged, according to a Pendleton paper. Ellenberger was killed early Satur day morning. At that time he was riding on his father's place and his horse stepped Into a badger hole. It is presumed that the jolt threw the young man from his horse and that his foot caught in one of the stirrups. The horse then started to run and dragged his helpless master under him. -. Coming, to a closed gate the animal dashed against it, breaking It down. Ellenberger's body struck the same and was thereby freed from the horse.. Thore were no eye-witnesses to the accident but Ellenberger was mill alive when found by one of the War ner boys. Dr. Parker of Pilot Rock, was summoned and reached the scene before the injured man died. How ever, he could do but little to save him. . Owing to the fact that wit nesses were present when Ellenber ger died no Inquest was held by Cor oner Folsom.' ' Fritz Ellenberger was 23 years of age and was born in Switzerland. He was a single man and had been work ing for K. O. Warner, the sheepman, Among those who knew him the de ceased was well liked and respected, His funeral, which occurred at Pilot Rock at 2 o'clock this afternoon, was largely attended.
