rather exciting accident occurred. The
wagon had on full load Of ice, and
the four horses and mules were slow
ly pulling it up the river hill when it
got the bulge on them and startled
backward. The animals were I'M
able to keep their footing, and in an
other minute the wagon had fallen
over the cliff. dragging them after it.
Mr.. Freeze just jumped from the sad
die horse In time to escape going over
too. The wagon was very badly bro
ken up, but strange to say, the ami
mails escaped almost unhurt. The
severest wound was sustained by an
old mule that always carried itstongue
ON the outside of its mouth. The mule
was too excited to pull it in, so the
tongue was pretty badly bitten. it,
a wonder the team escaped soluckily,
for the cliff is steep and high at that
point.
