During the past two weeks a deer had been seen, by several parties, a few miles south of town, and on last Tuesday Ed Warinner and Eperam Cameron started in pursuit of the animal. They had not been gone long when the animal sprang from the brush, a few steps away, and Cameron fired and wounded it. It soon -recovered and made efforts to escape, but Ed with his us ual preasence of miud, rau up and caught it by the hind leg and held it until Camer on could reload and shoot again, but even in this instabce he was not successful in kill ing it. Ed realizing the situation braced himself against a tree and with a firmer de termination held the deer tighter than ever. The deer kept kicking and blating and Cameron kept loading and shooting until all his amumtion was zone, when the ani mal in its efforts to escape fell and broke its neck.

Last Saturday morning about eight o' clock Fred Oltjenbruns was plowing in a field near King's Valley, in Benton county, with a three horse team, when he met with quite a serious accident. One of the tugs became loose, and lie Stepped forward to hitch it up, when the horses gave a plunge, the plow striking him on the left leg rnak- ing a bad gash three or four inches long and reaching to the bone.
