A BELLAIRE RUNAWAY.
Plat brewer Meets with Serious
Accident


Platt Brewer. steel worker OF Bel
laire. and who lives on Gravel Hill, was
the victim Of a serious runaway about
balf-past five o'clock yesterday after
noon. He was out driving with friend
by the name of Joe Crogan. When in
the neighborhOOd Of Guernsey street
tho horse became frightened and
unmanageable. The buggy was
overturned and Brewer was thrown
out, striking the back OF his head
against the stone curbiug. He must
have struck with great force, as he was
rendered unconscious. and continued so
long after being removed to his home.
II is thought he will die. The other
party in the buggy escaped unhurt.
Both had been imbibing to some extent,
and it is likely that the drivers be-
came somewhat reckless.

A FAIR sAmPLr.

1t is surprising how wonld-b be- re-
liable newspapers get things mixed
up and an item of news changed an
so prevented that the original facts
are entirely lost sight of AS witness
the following.
Some time since we published an
article in regard to joke played
by DR.. Cox Of Aasontown on q
man in that section who came to
the Doctor to get him to write .
petition to the County Court ask
ing for the removal Of III. u. Carroll
from the Office Of Road Supervisor
for that precinct. Nearly all the
state papers have re-published it in
some form or other. Some Of them
hanged Ii. d. Carroll and some of
them DR.. Cox and now here is the
latest version of tins changing bee
clipped from the West Union Rec
ord.
The dignifled court of Preston
county wac somewhat astonished
the other day when James Carroll,
prominent although illiterate
farmer, presented petition signed
by $50 Of his acquaintance and
friends praying that he be hanged,
and that day be speedily appoint
ed for the event. 1t turned out
after investigation that Carroll was
a road surveyor, desired to resign.
and asked DIR. James Cox to draw
mp paper to that effect. Cox is
somewhat of wag. and knowing
that Carroll could not read he drew
up petition that he be hanged,
and awaited curiously to see how
many people would sign it without
knowing what they were doing.
About one hundred aud fifty act
ually signed the paper without
reading it. The remand r
"caught on" to the joke, but said
nothing and allowed the paper to go
its rounds.
