Mrs. Banta, during the ex citement jumped from the ivaon breaking and splintering the bone of her ankle at the joint. Mr. Carson and the stage driver carried her to the house. A physician was sum moned by telephone and Mr. and Mrs. Banta's wounds were dressed and they were made as comfortable ns ; possible. Harland Uayse from John Day, came out with his car and took Mrs. UanU to the Prairie City hospital, where she could receive medical at tention and have her broken ankle set.
