night. lie was standing on the tender
box while the men wero dumping coal
into the tender, when the engine sudden
ly starting, catch ing him across the lows
er part of the abdomen, between tho roof
Of the engine cab and the apron of the
coal shute, squeezing him very severely.
He was taken 10 his home and DIR. Dent
called in, who, upon examination, pro-
nounced his injuries, though of very
painful nature, not necessarily fatal.
Had he been caught few inches higher,
it would have caused his death.

That Grand Hunting Expedition.

The mighty hunters of our little town,
for sometime have been i'm donbt as To
which of them were tho best hunters;
and as all of them claimed that honor.
there has been no real certainty about tho
matter, and many and sharp woro the
discussions concern ing their respective
merits
ON "Wednesday of last week, tho mats
tor eliminated, and IL was suggested
that they be divided into two parties,
each OF which were to have ono orthe
best hunters for IA leader. aud upon some
day to be agreed upon, that they take
different fields of operation. and each and
all of them hunt their level best all day
and at night count tho game and,
whichever party had tho largest number,
would be considered the champion huns
ters, and the other party, in token of de-
feat, to give them a supper,
Acting upon tho sugg astion, a meeting
was held that night. Junior Brown and
Dan. Jackson were selected as leaders,
and Saturday Nov. >, rs the day for the
hunt.
Browns party consisted OF John
Camden Murdoch, Doc. Trippett, james
Herndon. Capt. "Jim" Murdoch, "Davo"
Menear, j ohm Ccnley and julius Monroe.
Jackson's party,of "Toby' Brown, ED Ell
lott, Grove Cooper, John Klausor, Frank
Mauown, Mac. Mouoar, Lish Couley,
| Grove Jackson, aud Sherard Herudou.
The greatest excitement imaginable
| prevailed before the hunt; old guns that
had not been used for forty years or moro
were brought into use, and every man
that owned gun, and did not intend to
go hunting on that day, was bored every
fow minutes for the loan Of his gun; and
matters came TO such pass, that our gem
| ial merchant, John IL. Brown ESQ, was
considering the pro priety ofhaving some
posters struck, an posted up over town
giving notice that his gun was already
| loaned.
Saturday came at last, and the boys
were happy. TWAS a good day for hunt
ing. All day long the distant roar OF
guns, reminding one of the cannonadiug
| during the war, was heard.
The result of the hunt was as follows:
Browns party killed, mink ,33 squirrels
| 9 rabbits, pigeon, 1 pheasant, ] owl and
partridge. Jacksou's party killed,
l snipe, 81 squirrels, "a rabbits pleas
ants, and 2 partridges.
AS the hunt was 10 be decided according
to the value of the game, list of game
and prices was mado out before the hunt.
! but no provision was made for mink,
/ MI fhn nufr al la n,
all the game killed, a difference Of opiu~
| ion arose as TO who wero entitled to the
championships: and tho matter now stands
rs il did at first, both parties think hcy
are tho best hunters.
