George Christman passed through
terrible ordeal last night. lie was
dragged by runaway horse for a dis
lance of five hundred yards. most of
the distance with his head bumping
against the maeadamized road. Al
though he had not regained conscious
ness ut midnight, Il was stated by his
physician that there was a chance for
his recovery.
Christman lives on Baltimore street
in the East End. is about Ss years Of
age, and is employed by the Natural
Gas Co of West Virginia in the oapa-
city of driver. Yesterday evening
about seven o'clock, he hitehed n
horse to a buggy. and started out to
drive. but the shaft of the vehicle
broke. The horse became excited. but
did not run away This occurred on
home. and the animal was probably
still laboring under exeitment when the
runaway occurred later in the even
ing.
Mr. Christman returned to his stable
and hitched the horse to "A liSat driving
cart, after which he started out the
National Road. At Il point near the
toll house east of Fulton. the animal
became frightened, and started to be-
have badly.
Mr.. Christman was thrown from his
seat, and in his efforts to remain in
the box in front. one knee passing
through the wheel and preventing It
from turning. His head and body
were out of the cart and he probably
held to the shafts as long as he could.
When he was compelled to release his
hold, his head touched the ground on
the side of the cart, and the frightened
animal dragged him in this manner for
considerable distance.
Dr. Alexander, of Leatherwood was
driving toward the city, and was an
eye witness to the unfortunate accident.
He saw the rig coming toward him, but
it was only when 1t was passing him
that he noticed that the driver was
being dragged along the road. lie
turned his buggy about to follow the
runaway horse The animal was stop
ped by Carl McGranahan, who was
riding toward the city on bis wheel.
The horse had gone to point about
midway between stackyard Hollow and
Rudlers place, having gone about five
hundred yards.
Christm an was extracted from his po-
sition, and made as comfortable as pos
sible on the side of the road. He was
unconscious. DR.. Alexander dressed
his injuries temporarily and directed
that the city ambulance be called
Meanwhile large crowd had assembled
about the unfortunate man.
When the ambulance arrived Christ
man was removed to the City Hospital,
where DR.. Meyers, the resident surgeon
dressed his wounds. The back of his
skull was crushed in. and one Of his
arms was broken, while he was bruised
generally all over his body. At mid
night he had not regained conscious
ness, and his condition was very ser
ious, with chances against his re-
covery.

FARM LOCOMOTIVE TAKEN TO
THE ROUNDHoUsE
QUALITY CROP UNEXCELLED.
Taken AS a Whole the 1901 Crops In
the Gallatin Valley Have
Been Good and Market
Prices Fair.

Bozeman. Oct. 24.-Another thraShing
season has been brought to a close, or
practically So as there are only few
small crops left that have not been
thra shed out.
Most of the machines are being taken
to the homes of their owners and housed
up until another fall comes around.
So far as can be ascertained the year
1901 will not go down in history as being
a record breaker, SO far as large yields
are concerned. but when quality is taken
into consideration. as a general rule, it
cannot be excelled.
This is especially true in regard to
the barley which has made an average
yield of about As or 80 bushels to the
be desired.
Oats have done We'll, and some yields
of from 50 to over 100 bushels to the
acre have been reported. though large
yields are the exception. not the rule.
The hay crop is the best in the history
of the valley. some farmers having real
lied as much as five tons TO the acre
In clover.
Potatoes. unfortunately. have not pros
pered as we'll as they might, but thls
appears to be the rule throughout the
whole of the United States.
However, there are some farmers who
have been able to secure good Yields.
and, what is just as good or better an
excellent price.
The fall wheat crop did not come up
to the expectation. owing to the lack OF
moisture at the proper season ana the
exceedingly dry summer.
The fact that nearly every product Of
the farm is realizing at least fair prices
for the man VINO raised it is redeem
ing feature of the year, and there is no
reason to fear anyone will feel very
greatly the shortage in some directions
The Gfallatin valley never has expert
enced a crop failure, and 1t is hoped IL
never Will.
