HORSE SAVES A BOY.
ed Newspaper Carrier from Among
Floating Ice in a Flood.

A most remarkable case Of intelli-
gence in the horse came to light in La
Sale during the recent high water In
the Illinois river. Edgar Bray, pa
per carrier. is the owner of the ami
NAL, and he was saved from almost
certain death by its action.
Bray, who is. IS years old, carries
the La Sale Daily Tribune through a
sparsely settled territory south Of
this city and across the Illinois river.
He has been riding to that work a
great gray horse Of uncertain age.
The other day, with the Illinois river
rs feet out of its banks, Bray left La
Sale for the route over which he
daily travelled. He had found some
trouble in reaching the city, because
of the river overhowing the road at
several points. Nevertheless, he start
ed for the bridge over which he was
accustomed to cross the river to de-
liver the papers.
When he reached the half mile
stretch OF road that leads across the
level bottom land in the river valley
he found that the few inches of water
that had flowed over it before had in
creased to such depth that heavy
cakes of ice were crossing the bottom
land, swept along by the current Of
the stream.
An older rider would have gone

tered the dangerous flood. When mid
way huge chunk of ice struck the
horse. 1t plunged wildly and lost its
footing, throwing the boy in the wa
ter.
Instead of going shoreward, as
would have been expected, the horse
followed the boy and stood quietly
while being remounted. Then the
journey was recommended. Another
piece Of ice, larger than the first and
immensely thick, came down upon
them. This time the horse jumped
squarely upon the ice.
Boy and horse were at once carried
off the road over 80 feet of water, and
the journey outward was begun. The
horse realized the danger of the cur
rent and soon jumped back into the
water. swimming toward the fringe
of willows that marked the solid
ground. After hard struggle the
boy was brought safely to the road.
A remarkable feature Of the affair
was that the youngster rode back to
La Sale and crossed the river on the
big bridge of the Illinois Central rail.
road, delivering his papers on time
The bridge used IS closed to all but
foot passengers, for which 1t has a
narrow walk on each side. On this oc-
casion the boy eluded the bridge ten
der and led his horse across in safety.

the railroad bridge is known TO have
been used for the passage Of horse

but the story finally leaked out from

There are from many sources
coming distinct murmerings at
the course Of events connected
with the Cherokee administration;
and The Chieftain has been urged
by some very excellent citizens to
lay bare to the public some things
that are going on, that to the cas-
ual observer are not quite right.
The attitude Of the paper at the
present time is this--to help rath-
re than hinder the work of progress
and to uphold the hands OF the
chiet and those with whom he has
seen fit to surround himself in the
administration Of affairs in these
closing years of tribal existence,
Why certain appointments are
made, and why certain measures
are approved are not always ap-
parent to the public mind, and
are frequently incapable Of ex-
PLANTATION. 1t would do no good
at this time to cripple the admin
istration by upbraiding it. How
ever, The Chieftain can assure
the public that should occasion
demand, it will be fully equal to
the occasion, and there will be a.
full and faithful chronicle of every
thing that comes within its CLINT
that could possibly be of benefit to
the public. The present is crit
ical time in the history of the
Cherokee people, but to unduly
suspicion public officials will not
advance their interests in the least.
