African Flesh Color.

There is an innocent young counter jumper
in Prediction, N. b., dry goods store, who
in the future will no doubt be more thought
full, providing that he lives to return to his
old position in the store. A young colored
lady went to him few days since and asked
to be shown a pair of flesh colored stock
ings. The young man took it for granted
that she wanted some OF African flesh color,
and brought down box shaded all the way
from light brown 10 the darkest kind of
black. The moment that "Dinah" spotted
those socks, a transformation scene took
place. "Heah 20 poor white trash, 20
mustn't think yo can insult me even il l is
hrack," and in order to give her words more
weight she hit him across the face with a
fish she had rolled up in paper. Seeing
that she had surprised the enemy, like true
warrior, she hoped over the counter and
getting the poor scared dude down on the
floor she butted him with her head, till
pulled off by the other clerks. They took
him up tenderly, and carried him TO his
boarding house, where he still remains with
his face knocked around on the back of his
head and Two ribs IN sling.

CRUSHED TO DEATH.
John O'Iara, Falls Under the Wheels
OF Quartz Wagon on the Come
Road and In Killed.

Last Sunday evening, about six o'clock,
word was brought to town by Pony, that a
man had been killed on the Como road by
being run over by Ed. Swift's quartz wagon.
The accident happened as follows: Joe
Dingle, who was the driver took out for a
"swamper" Sunday morning, a man named
John O'Hara, from Gold Hill. After loading
with quartz at the Como Eureka mine the
team started on the return trip TO Dayton.
1t had reached point about two miles and
a half this side Of the Welter mill when
Dngle, the driver, missed his helper, and
thinging that something might be wrong
took one OF his horses and started back on
the road. On his way back, he met VIM.
Duncan, who informed him that O'Hara was
been hurt. About a mile this side Of the
mill Joe found O'Hara. He had been run
over, the wheels passing over his chest and
crushing it and also breaking his left arm.
Mr.. Dinple rode back to Mr.. Hepworth' 5
house in Palmyra, and there told the story
to Mrs. Hepworlh Miss kiitie Ely and Pony.
These parties Immediately went TO where
O'Hara was lying and the women did all in
their power to ease his suferings, while
Pony came to Dayton for assistance, making
the trip Of nine miles over a rough road in
forty minutes. Arriving here he stated that
the man was not dead, but could not pos
sibly live. Ike Coin and Jack Hepworth
immediately stared for there, with a team to
bring the unfortunate man TO Dayton. A
telegram was slso sent TO Mr.. Swift, and in
a short time he arrived with two young men
named Thirlwell, brothers-in law Of o Hara,
and an undertaken and coffin. They pro.
ceeded towards Como, and about half past
eleven returned followed by Ike Cohn and
Hepwouh bringing in the body, O'Iiara
having died about an hour and a half after
being run over. The corpse was taken di-
rectly to the Court House, a jury summoned
and an inq uest held. Mr.. Hepworth and Joe
Dingle were the only witnesses sworn and
their evidence was to the effect that the man
told Mrs. Hepworth and Miss Ely that while
attending the break he slipped and fell in
front Of the "back. action" and that be-
fore he could recover himself the front wheel
had passed over his chest and the hind wheel
over his left arm, breaking IL. O'Hara at
tached no blame to the driver, saying it was
his own fault. lie was native Of Ireland,
aged 80 years, and came TO this State from
Iowa. He leaves relatives and friends in
Gold Hill and Virginia. After the inquest
the body was taken to Gold Hill, from which
place the burial took place yesterday. This
is the second accident of the same nature
that has happened on this road during the
past six months, and superstitious drivers
look for another accident soon, as they say
that when there are two deaths in this man.
