Peculiar Accident.

While coming out with the last mail, Harry King had rather pe- culiar accident. When about to climb the hill at Tonsina he dis mounted, and hitching the pack animal to the pommel of his saddle proceeded to lead his riding horse. The saddle horse from some cause took fright, and wheeling around charged down the hill dragging the other horse along. The drag on the saddle caused it to turn, when the pistol that hung on the saddle dropped out of its holster, and striking the ground was discharged. The horse instantly fell dead, and examination disclosed the fact that he had been shot through the heart.
