Wednesday morning there came near being n serious runaway ac cident at the bridge at the mill dam. A lady was driving a horse hitched to a hack, just in the rear of a team driven by u man. As her horse came upon the bridge it became frightened and almost backed the buggy off the bridge which is with out railings. The man seeing the trouble jumped out of his con veyance to the assistance of the woman, and 'his team, becoming frightened, almost plunged into the race at the other end of the bridge. - Fortunately, the teams Were controlled before any serious damage was done. Several farmers have spoken nbout that bridge and the one at the mill being without ratlings, and the county or city, which ever is responsible, should ee to it at once.

Enoch claimed Mr. Mills owed him is cents and Mr. Mills claimed he had paid the bill to Enoch's illustrious father. Enoch became abusive and Mills tried to look pleasant and avoid him. Finally Enoch said some awful swear wouls to Mills and the I little fellow periled away at the "Injun" but missed. After a warm mix-up and any ouantity of wild swings during which Mills landed on the Indian's mug a hot right, Marshal McFnrlnnd made his appearance and put an end to an affair which would undoubtedly, if allowed to goon, ended 111 the red man being pounded into an un recognizable black and blue pulp.
