A Lucky

The animal which furnishes the mo-
tive power for james Russell's peram-
bulating milk wagon, being a young
thing, committed the indiscretion Of
attempting to navigate M ain street last
evening without n pilot. Moving out
from his moorings in front Of the Elko
market ut an easy gait, he suddenly
conceived the idea that IA little sensa-
ton would be expected Of him. and
accordingly started in to do his best.
rushing furiously toward the railroad
crossing Mt the east end of the Depot
Hotel. Bill Moody, mounted on one
Of his cattle horses, happened just n
the time to be making for the Sumo
point, and his attention being attracted
by the loud rattle of the vehicle in his
rear, looked behind him and took in
the situation at u glance, and as the
o thoroughly frightened beast
reached his side. Bill. clupped his
heels into his horses Hanks, dashed
forward. and sciziug the run. away by
the bits, drew him handsomely aud
notwithstanding II circle within "A
space between the hotel and II box car
scarcely large enough to turn the wns-
on to IL graceful halt in front Of Glib
Inns saloon. 1t was u bold feat admir-
ably executed. and doubt css saved the
demolition Of the wagon ut last.
