Runaway Accident at Lamont.

Tuesday afternoon, as Mrs. A. B.
Young and her oldest daughter, Mrs.
G. A. Hollen and two children, were
passing the brick church in single
buggy, two thoughtless boys, one with a
stick and the other with a rope, ran so
near the horse, that it became frighten-
ed, and suddenly shying plunged into
Mr.. BASES door yard running the buggy
onto a stump. This of course stopped
the vehicle, and Mrs. Hollen and her
two children, with the buggy scat and
top, went out on the left, while Mrs.
Young, clinging plucllily to the lines
was pulled forward the dashboard break
ing, and going out. Mrs. Young kept
hold of the lines and stopped the horse.
Mrs. Hollen and her two children escap-
ed without injury; but Mrs. Young was
badly bruised about the face and limbs,
and suffered much pain all the following
night, but was up and about Wednesday
morning. This accident might have re.
suited very seriously; and 1T is remark,
able that it had so fortunate an out
come.-Lamoni Patriot.

Child Drown in Well.

An accident that is shocking and pain
full in every particular occurred at the
home of Chas. Toney in the country
Saturday.
1t seems that we'll about forty feet
deep located near the house, had just
been cleaned out; and in order to do
that work the curb had been removed.
The dinner hour arrived before the
curb was replaced, so that the we'll was
left unprotected until after dinner.
But either while eating or soon after a
little child whose age is reported all
the way from three to five years, was
missed and a search was at once insti-
tuted to find it, only to discover at last
that it had fallen into the we'll and was
dead. The intensity of the excite
mont and anguish and the bitterness
of regret at having left the we'll expos
ed even for a brief time, can to some eX-
tent be imagined but cannot be told.
The little body was recovered with a
graphing hook, and was laid away in
the cemetery at Terrc Hautc Lamont
