RECKLESS DRIVING.
Two Men Knocked Down and One
Of Them Run Over on Main
Street.

One of the most outrageous cases of
fast driving which has come under
our observation in this city oc-
CURED on Main street shortly after
8 o'clock last night. A double team
attached to a covered buggy came up
Main street, driven at such a furious
gait as to attract the attention of
every person on the street. At the
corner of Broadway the team turned
westward, without in the slightest
degree checking the breakneck pace.
The usual evening crowd of men
were gathered upon the corner and
James Fitzsimmons and John Doc
ley were just crossing the street as
the team turned the corner. The
driver shouted 'look out!" but
there was no time for the two men to
get out of the way, and instantly the
horses were upon them. Dooley was
struck by the breast strap of the off
horse and knocked to one side, and
although the man was thrown upon
his back, he fell clear of the horses
hoofs and escaped injury. Fitzsim-
non was not so fortunate. He was
knocked down in front o fthe horses,
which with two wheels of the buggy
passed over his PROSTATE body, and
to the spectator it seemed impossible
that he could escape being trampled
to death under the horses feet. He
was picked up in an unconscious con-
dition and carried to a neighboring
saloon, where a surgeon examined
him and found that no bones were
broken, but he was very severely
stunned. He regained consciousness
in the course of half an hour and was
taken to the hospital. That he was
not KILLED outright is no fault of the
reckless driver, who although per-
fectly sober, and Notwithstanding his
regret at the occurrence was evidently
genuine, should be held responsible
for his recklessness, which imperiled
the lives of a cor of men who were
standing upon that corner. The
driver was arrested but subsequently
released on bail. He was
deeply effected by the occurrence,
which will probably be a life long les
son to him, and he is not likely to re-
peat the experiment of making race
track of Main street. For this
reason his name is suppressed,
but the violation of the ordinance
against fast driving is becoming alto
gether too common, and the same
leniency by the press cannot be
pected in future cases of a similar
character.

Independent: A man named Has
kell who was hauling coal for the
Gregory company, had his leg broken
Friday ouJ near Jeffer son City, by
his wagon upsetting. He was caught
between the sacks of charcoal and
had his leg doubled up so that the
ankle bones protruded through the
flesh and stuck into one of the sacks
of charcoal. Haskell lay there for
hours before any one came to his as
sistance. In the evening he was
brought into The Sisters Hospital at
Helena.

"Gobbled Up"
And What The Phrase Means.
"Gobbled Up"

Dc you think we will permit any
body to offer you better bargains
than we? Not if we know it and can
help it. We would soon hear it
whispered were it so, and to be fore
warned is to be forearmed.
It has always been u aim to offer
you a little better bargains than any
body else AID judging from the ex-
tent of u business we have sue
ceeded. This has been our constant
aim in the past and it will be in the
future. At this time, and during
tho continuace of ~ clearing sale
we honestly believe that we are
doing b~etter-that we are offering
decidedly better bargains than can
De found elsewhere. You, however
must he the judge OF this, but it will
not be fair to decide until you shall
have investigated. We want you to
investigate for you will then know
that our bargains are what we claim
for them and you will not only be
satisfied yourself but you will adver-
tie us among your friends, and you
know we believe in advertising, for
the more goods we can sell the lower
we can buy and the lower we can
sell and hence the better it is fer all
parties in interest.
Yesterday, We made a bold dash in
to the ranks of certain lines of
goods and cut down the prices merci-
lessly. The goods are stacked upon
our forward bargain center tables and
there is more Of them, twice over,
than at any n time since the sale
began. All are offered at half price
and less; not half the usual prices re-
member, but half the low prices we
have been asking during the sale and
the reductions-most of them-are
from clearing sale prices.

Prints, 7 tos yards, so to Csc Il to

ready-made dresses and wraps, para
soils, straw hats, towels, napkins, ia
BILE linens, lannels, waterpToofs ETC.,
have been correspondingly reduced.
Such bargains were perhaps never
before offered and we advise you to
come at once. They are here to-day
but some will not be tomorrow. Last
evening we received two solid cases
of a certain soap-six cakes put up in
a nice wooden box which we of:
fered at rs cts. per box. We sold one
case in less than an hourat retail and
would have sold the other in the same
way in less time but a dee Ter "gob-
gled up the entire cas- and carted it
off to sell it to you at Scots per box.
We have t~elegraphed for ten cases
more. Further particulars of this
new feature of our sale will be given
tomorrow.
Very respectfully,
SANDS & BOYCE.
