Frank Ludwig had horse killed on
Feb. %, by falling from the bridge over
the Little Cottonwood river in town
Leavenworth. It seems that the railing
of the bridge was not strong enough to
hold the loaded sleigh and in driving
down the bank the sleigh swung around
breaking the railing and pulling the
team with it to the ice below. The
horse was worth over 500 and we un-
derstand the town supervisors will settle
with the owner and then repair the
bridge.

to have been stopped. Especially is
this habit been very aggravatlng in the
winter. Horses were driven to town
and in heated and perspiring condition
left in the cold while the owner hied
himself to congenial place to warm
his body and satisfy his appetite. The
ordinance provides fine for leaving s
Tam tied to any place longer than one
hour.
