RnY Run Over.

Roy, 11-year-od son of William Z. Phillips,
of East Line street. was run over by team
in charge of Roberts, the liveryman, yester-
day and seriously, but not dangerously, in
jured. The accident occurred late yesterday
afternoon in front of Wyatts hotel, on North
Main street. Children who left the High
school building gathered about a farmers
team that was trying to pull loaded wagon
out of a rut, and young Phillips was one of
them. When the team finally started up the
boy stepped backwards and was knocked
down by the team driven by Mr.. Roberts,
whose cries of warning were not heard. A
knee of one of the horses knocked the boy
down and the wheels of the carriage passed
over his right thigh and his back, just above
the hips, DIR. Hamilton attended him.

Work on the city directory for shenandoah
is progressing very nicely and it is evident
from the systematic canvass that its pub
fishers are making that our town is at last to
have a complete and accurate reference work
No business man, no matter in what line of
trade he may be- can well afford to be with
out the work. By aiding its publishers in
the matter of advertising patronage, or sub
scription, they not only secure a valuable
medium for publicity, but they aid at the
same time a work that has long been a
necessity to our town. We intend to aid the
publishers in any manner that lays in our
power and if our business people will look at
the matter in the proper spirit of enterprise,
Shenandoah will not be lacking for directory
that will prove credit and benefit to it for
some time to come.
