It so iinnpi-vpil the old man that he is now suffering with prostration and will probably die within a few days.

Nu.MKitoi!B Accidents. Cottage flrove Leadur: Every day during the hunting and harvesting season, acci dents of more or less seriousness arc re corded In this county. Many no doubt are the results or pure carelessness, and It would appear quite evident that the people or this county are very deiicieni in their conceptions of danger. One day last week Mr. J. N. Jones residing few miles south or town was un h tc ilng his horses from the wagon when they became frightened and Mr. Jones was kicked or thrown under the wagon, the wheels passing over his bodv. It was thought he sustained some very severe and dangerous bruis es, nr. Wall was called anu aioer careful examination found that two ribs had been broken and the bruises to be of a very painful but not serious nature. At last accounts Mr. Jones was getting along nicely aud will be able to resume his lubor in a few weeks. Still Aiikoad. Salem Journal, Wednesday: Supt. (Jeo. S.
