I. wt Badly Torn. On Wednesday
a fifteen year old son of Mr. Jenks,
who lives just beyond Tangent, while
plowing, stopped bis team to arrange
the caller or Mine part of the harness
on one of the animals. He stepped in

hundred to one hundred and fifty
yards, tearing and cutting his left leg
from the knee up, In a fearful manner.

A Dreadful Accident. A
dreadful accident occurred recently,
near the Calipooia, a short distance
above Boston Mills, whereby a
promising young man doubtless
received injuries that will prove
fatal. The son of Widow Thomp
son, who lives up on the Calipooia,
was engaged in hauling hay, which
had been purchased from a neighbor
named McMichaels. About enough
hay was left in the loft for one more
load, and young Thompson had
gone into the mow or loft to pitch
the bay on to the wagon. The
floor of the loft was made of round
poles, some distance apart, a fact
the young man seems not to have
been aware of at the time. As
there was barely sufficient hay over
these poles to cleverly cover them.
the moment Mr. Thompson jumed
into the loft the hay give way
under his weight, precipitating him
to the floor below with such force
as to break his back. Dr. Craw
ford, who was called in, sent for
Dr. Bice, and last Monday, after a
critical examination, the physicians
could see very little hope of the
patient's recovery.
Excellent. Messrs. Harper &
Co. have been receiving durmg the
week their new Spring and Sum
mer goods a much heavier stock
than usual, and selected in San
Francisco by Mr. Harper, a gentle
man of superior taste and discern.
ment in such matters. In the line
of silks, fancy dress goods and cali
coes, probably their stock has never
been excelled in this oity before.
In domestic and other staples they
have exceedingly full lines; in
boots and shoos, of all grades, an
unusually full assortment; in
crockery they have added many
new features; in clothing they have
probably double the usual stock,
and of a much better grade. They
have also a very large quantity of
stock salt, a superior article, which
they can sell at remarkably low
figures to those wishing to buy in
quantities. Don't fail to call at
Harper & Co.'s.
