Brain-I"OO0 Nonsense.

Another ridiculous food fad

PLAYED TO A sTANDsTlLL.
Honors We're Even Between Plank
inton and Mitchell Oh the
Base Ball Diamond.

There was not very large crowd
out at the base ball park Monday
afternoon to see the game between
Mitchell and Plankinton. The day
was quite chilly and it was hard for
the crowd to become enthusiastic.
But six innings were played, and the
game was called to allow Plankinton
to go home on the passenger train.
Oscar Williams went in the box at
first and Paul Williams was at the
receiving end with the big mitt.
Plankinton managed to land on
Oscars slants for enough safe hits.
with the assistance of a few errors.
to tie the score in the fifth inning.
In the sixth Baker went in to pitch
for Mitchell and he fooled the Plank
inton tanners with ease. Had the
game been played out to the ninth
Plankinton would doubtless have
been at a standstill. Gardner and
Mullen were in the points for Plank
linton and they put up a good game,
with very far assistance from the
field.
The high wind that blew during
the afternoon put the tielders at a
disadvantage and it was not an easy
matter to judge a fly that was car
ried by the wind. Mitchell boys
played good strong game under the
circumstances and after several more
games they will be able to play to-
gether in way that ought to receive
the liberal support Of the home peo-
pie.
lnasmuch as Plankinton played the
game to tie there will doubtless be
some anxiety to get in on another
game. Plankinton ought to come
back here for the next game and give
the people chance to get even on
that short game they worked on us.
The boys had better drive down
next time and stay long enough to
finish the game.

INJURED IN THE HIP.
Joseph Mclaughlin Thrown From
His Buggy While Coming
Home From Letcher.

Joseph Mclaughlin suffered a very
painful injury in the hip Monday
evening by being thrown from his
buggy while on his way home from
Letcher.
He had been up there during the
day to attend the races and started
home about o'clock. He was driv-
ing a single horse and had been on
the road about an hour when the ac-
cident happened. Mr.. Mclaughlin
said his horse was usually gentle,
but would never permit another to
go past him on the run, and this is
what lead up to the accident. He
said that loose horse came up from
the rear on the run, and his horse
hearing the approach of the other
animal started to keep ahead. His
horse swerved to one side and at that
juncture he passed telegraph pole
that was standing very close to the
road. The front wheel Of the buggy
struck the pole as the horse was
going at rapid gait. When the
wheel struck the shafts broke loose
from the buggy and Mr.. Mclaughlin
was thrown forward, and over
the dashboard, and he thinks
he struck on the heels of the horse.
The animal got away and took the
shafts with him. Mr. Mclaughlin
said he struck on his hip and it gave
him, a terrible wrench, it being some
time before he could move.
He managed to crawl back into the
buggy and wrap himself in the robes
and from O'Clock until nearly 6
O'Clock Tuesday morning he kept up
his lonely vigil, suffering considerable
pain all night long. There was not a
person who passed that way during
the night ard he had to wait until
morning before be could secure as
sistance. Shortly after daylight a
farmer came along that way and he
went for Mr.. Cox, who lived two
miles distant. Mr.. Cox brought Mr..
Mclaughlin to town and took him to
his hotel. He was chilled through
and it was several hours before it
was possible to break up the chills.
Dr.. Crane was called to the hotel and
fixed up his patient. Mr. McLaugh-
| lin said he was confident that his hip
was thrown out of joint by the fall
but he managed to get it back in
place.
1t was very unfortunate accident
and will likely lay him up for some
time a number of his friends called
during the day to inquire after his
condition. Mr.. Mclaughlin is get
ting along as well as possible under
| the circumstances.
