Frank Moore of this city fell from horse
| Saturday and broke his leg Just above the
knee. Moore was at work for W. A. Manu-
al, near Poor's mills, but when the accident
occurred he was trying to ride colt The
animal reared and fell and in the fall came
down on the leg of Moore. Belfast Cor.

| This item seems to call for Moore particu-
lars. In the first place it is not clear whether
Moore broke the horses leg or his own.
Then it appears that he was trying to ride
colt when he fell from the horse and that
| the animal (horse or colt?) reared and fell,
coming down on the leg Of Moore, who we
are to infer had but one leg. The Belfast
correspondent of the Bangor Daily News re-
ports the matter more briefly, as follows:
Mrs. Frank Morse of Waldo was milking
a COW Friday night when she kicked and
| broke his leg.
There was heated argument at the Court
House Tuesday as to whether it was the COW
or Mrs. Morse that kicked Col. Fred At
wood maintained that Mrs. Morse kicked
because she had to milk, and that the COW in
| retaliation kicked Mrs. Morse. But as the
item read, broke his leg, the Clerk of Courts
held that Mr.. Morse must have been the
victim. The true version will be found else
where, under the heading of Accidents.

A COLORADO Corn ROAST. F. Angler
the progressive travelling passenger agent Of
the Union Pacific Railway, who has his
headquarters in Denver, recently engineered
an excursion from that city to Loveland,
Col, about 800 people making the trip. He
had previously visited the town and the
residents had agreed to furnish the pro-
visions if Mr.. Angler would furnish the peo-
pie, and the contract was successfully car
ried out by both parties. A local paper
says:
trench some fifty feet in length had
been previously dug, and libe ral hearted
farmers and farmers wives had cOntri buted
the best ears of corn in their fields. Others
gave OF apples good stOre-and, SO far as
learned, none condemned the idea of adver-
Using this locality. About an hour previ-
GUS to the arrival of the train some 5000
ears of corn, enclosed in their original pack
ages, were carefully laid upon the redhot
Goals, and the tables commenced to look like
business About 1,5OO nice bologna sand
wiches had been made up of Loveland -four
and homemade sausage-and these We're
spread upon the tables. Butter from the
creamery was furnished in plentiful quanti-
ties, and coffee. lemonade and milk We're in
abundance But moment was consumed
in getting from the train to the tables--and
then the crowd commenced to praise the
food. The corn was done to turn-and the
liberality of Loveland was loudly comment
ed upon.
