SUITS

Various Portions Of the City.

Two serious accidents are reported
from along the Wheeling and Fairmont
pike, both in the neighborhood OF Mt.
Olivet. Mrs. John Davis, a well known
lady, living in that vicinity was badly
hurt. She was driving drought the
gate at her home with a horse and cart.
The force of the wind closed the gate,
which shut against the horse. The
animal took fright and ran at a ter
rible rate OF speed down the
pike. Mrs. Davis was slightly injured
by coming in contact with the gate, and
was afterward thrown out on the hard
stones OF the pike, receiving serious To-
juries. Medical aid was summoned, and
though no bones were broken her condi-
ton is regarded as quite critical.
VIM. Zilligen, 8 well-kDown man OF
that locality, also suffered serious tn-
juries by q runaway, last Wednesday
afternoon, near the place where Mrs.
Davis was injured. He is a peddler OF
silverware, and was driving his horse
and wagon along the pike. The animal
took fright and an exciting runaway
ensued. Mr.. Zilligen was precipitated
to the ground with great force, alight'
ing on a large stone. he was uncon-
scious, and was taken to the home OF
David Marsh, near by. Medical aid was
summoned and his condition was found

cover.

and the injury bled terribly 1t seemed

could scarcely stand, and his parents
had about given him up, when DR.. j.
