Yesterday morning as Carl
who drives the Skanee
stage, was nearing town on his trip
from Skanee. he discovered that
he had lost Il bolt from the wagon
and went back few rods TO look
for it. A young daughter of
Dennis Connors was in the wagon,
and had hold of the lines. For
some reason the horse became
frightened and started on a brisk
run towards town before Mr.. Lund-
berg returned. The animal came
down Main street hill at a pretty
good speed, and the wagon struck
the hydrant in front of M. Wal
lace S block with great force. The
girl was thrown several feet, but
fortunately was not injured aside
from a few slight bruises.
