and rubbish, hauling to the southern END
of the PENINSULA and dumping ii into the
bay. Old Leon has driven the same horse
for years, but last Saturday morning The
animal was unable to work and another
one was given him. They made but one
trim together.
One of the company's inspectors OF the
roads saw old Leon drive To the edge of
the cliff in his usual manner and without
getting off the cart back his horse around
to the dump. The animal backed and
kept on backing until all three went over
the cliff to the rocks below.
Just how they fell no one can tell be-
cause they were not seen after they dis
appeared over the top. The inspector gave
the alarm and several men hurried to the
base of the cliff. Old Leon was found ly-
ing on the top of his morse in an uncon-
sclous condition, but with no bones broken.
Inc animals head was bent under it and
IL was apparent that its neck had been
broken by the fall. There was not whole
bone In its body. The cart was not as
badly damaged as might be supposed.
The place where they fell was close into
the base Of the cliff studded with round
mOss-cOvered powders.
Old Leon was carried where he could
be given medical attendance, but it took
several hours on the part OF the physicians
to bring him TO his senses, and then lie
only opened his eyes and looked around
In daZed sort of way. He was unable to
speak. BY noon yesterday he had so far
recovered that he was sent to the hospital
at San Rafael, although he was by no
means out of danger. 1t is pro BILE that
he sustained internal injuries that may
cause his death at any moment.
a reporter visited the spot yester-
day afternoon, and, from the appearance
of things, the wonder is that more acct
dents have not occurred before. The cliff
at this point is about 100 feet high. The
top Is fat and level, but the sides go down
almost as steep as the walls of house and
are very rough and rugged.
From the TOD edge of the cliff extending
down about twenty-five feet is a sor. of a
shute INTO which the rubbish is dumped.
but there is no guard rail or fender of aDy
kind to keep the wheels of the cart from
rolling over, the absence of which caused
the accident. Had old Leon got off his cart
before attempting to back his horse the ac-
cideBt might not have happened. 1t was
carelessDess on his part not to do so, but if
there had been some sort of guard there
it could not have happened whether he did
so or not.
The guard rail should have been there.
and whoever is responsible for its absence
should be held accountable.

Awful Fall of a Man and
Horse
AT BELVEDERE PENINSULA.
Man Seriously Injured and Horse
Instantly Killed.
DOWN ONE HUNDRED FEET
It Seems to Have Been Caused by
the Absence of Proper
Safeguards.

A sickening and possibly fatal accident
occurred at the beautiful Belvedere PENN
Sula last Saturday. A man, horse and
dumpcart went over preciplce and we've
dashed against the rocks at the bottom.
The horse never moved after he struck.
and that the man was not killed instantly
seems like miracle.
Details of the affair were almost impos-
sible to obtain yesterday afternoon, be-
cause there was but one witness to the
accident, who could not be found, and to
the fact that very little was known about
the unfortunate man. 1t was impossible
to find anybody who knew the victims
full name, although from all that could be
learned he was an old Italian known to
the people as Leon"
For years he mas worked for the Belve-
dere Land Company driving a dumpcart
from house to house collecting the ashes
