Aid. Prichard had narrow escape from
death on the Covel creek road Wednesday
afternoon. He was driving slowly along,
thinking of no danger. when looking behind
he discovered runaway team, bitehed to a
bobsled. whose approach had been rendered
noiseless by the snow, almost upon his cut
ter. 1t was too late to escape by fight, and
there was no room to turn aside, so the
alderman did the next best thing. to his
mind. and jumped out. Unfortunately,
however, his feet caught in the lap robe aud
he fell under the feet of the approaching
team, and was carried several rods under
the horses and bob, the deep snow alone
saving him from being crushed to death. As
it is, Mr.. Prichsrd carries q cut about FIVE
inches long on his Uranium, extending from
the apex to the butt of the left ear. He will
be laid up for day or two.

Company ID is mad clear through over the
alleged sensational expose, in an alleged
sensational paper, OF the stealing Of four or
five turkeys, couple of dozen buns, three

Sunday morning last, with the open imputa-
ton that member or members, of Co. ID
committed the alleged outrage and call for
their expulsion from the |. N. q. These are
the cold uualloyed facts of the case, as sta
ted by both the fair managers and the JAM
tor, who ate the food The janitor is com.
PEELED to be about the building day and
night, keeping up fires and guarding the ex
hibits. He takes most of his meals at the
refreshment table, under agreement that
their cost shall be deducted from the bill
for hall rent at the settlement. There was
chicken. a half dozen buns and rusk, some
coffee, and some butter left of the lunch on
last Saturday evening, and it was under
stood by the management that The janitor
would take them for his breakfast. He did
so, and some ghoul, with more enthusiasm
than discretion, under the guise of repor-
ter, hearing Of the missing food, immediate
ly concluded that there had been q grand
banquet by Co. b., on stolen viands But
the goods are in the bill, and paid for.

Gideon Ruger, the school teacher, who
lives on the Hit plantation on Ottawa Ave,
lost horse in very singular manner on
Wednesday afternoon. He was on his way
home from town, when his horse became
frightened at some imaginary danger, for,
being blind, it was unable to see real bug
aboo,) and ran away, detsching the sleigh
with its occupants. lie ran direct west on
Main with speed at which no one would
suppose blind horse would dare travel un.
guided, and, probably, in his horse mind,
thinking that it was time to turn a corner,
when near Titus barn, ran squarely into it,
literally knocking his brains out.
