FLEMING BROS.

A Terrible Joke and Bunder.-The work.
men in a planning mill at Newport, Kentucky,
last week, tied a rope around the neck of one
of their number who was drunk and noisy.-
By some means the end of the rope caught
on the shaft, which was in motion. The poor
fellow now sobered by fear, shrieked terribly
as he found himself dragged towards the ma
chinery, and felt the rope tightening around
his neck. One Of the hands sprung forward
with a knife, and severed the rope, but, in
his frightened haste, did it so bIunderingly
that he cut the unfortunate fellows throat, inu
ficting a deep cash, from which the blood
flowed abundantIy. The wound, fortunately,
was not fatal.
