Dodging a Creditor.

Tho Oliver Bros. who went to
Sioux City, and opened tho st.
Charles restaurant about year ago,
are gone. They left this city some
time between Tuesday and Wednes.
day, and went to Ottawa, where
they got on the train as it halted
there last Wednesday on it's way
South. After being on the trsin q
few minutes they discovered an old
creditor on the cars, to whom they
were indebted S105.. Immediately
they conferred together, our infor.
mant states, and concluded that they
would not condescend to ride with
any man who had shown such lack
of Judgment as to trust them, and
accordingly, they proceeded to the
platform Of the car and jumped off,
The train was then running twelve
miles an hour. The large Oliver is
said to have landed on his stomach,
which il pondcrous, and bounded like
ball. The smaller Oliver struck
upon his feet, but, loosing his balance,
went rolling down the embankment,
heels over head, into about eighteen
inches of muddy water. He struck
the water under such o high rate OF
speed that he made several revolutions
before he could regain his feet. Both
picked themselves up at about the
samo time, and ran like white heads
for q cornield close by and disap.
peared. This is the last seen of the
Oliver Bros. by their creditors.
