John Wells had d narrow escape from
serious injury while riding his bicycle
down Main street Saturday evening.
Mr.. Wells was looking along Main
street for some one whom he wanted to
see, and was not paying strict attention
to what was ahead of him, consequently
did not see Park Reynolds driving a
team of horses and carriage around the
corner from Fourth to Main street, but
he made the discovery when his wheel
was within several feet OF the horses,
too late to escape collision. Mr.. Wells
was knocked down and the horses and
carriage got over him somehow without
injuring him. His bicycle did not es-
cape so well and it had to be taken into
Hoffman's bicycle hospital for treatment.

them otherwise last Wednesday after

Our boys were In good trim and won
the game by outplaying the Dubois
team, and our team did not have to play
the last half Of ninth inning to do IL
either. In reporting the game the Du-
Bos Express said
"DuBois dropped its first game OF the
season to Reynoldsville on Wednesday

victories. The game was an interest
Ing and scrappy one throughout and
was marred by only one bad feature
the umpiring Of an unknown from some
place who evidently didn't know the
first thing about the great national
game. Both teams were given some
awful decisions. Reynoldsville put up

estimation OF many, out-played the home
