INTO DEE? GULLEY
Team and Buggy Fall Into Deep
Gu!ley at Love!and.
While returning to Missouri
Valley yesterday evening about
$3.50 after an afternoons work
in the country south of Love-
land, j. B. Barrett of the Valley
Bank and A. L. Hart, repre-
senting the New York Life In
surance company, met with a
mishap just as they were leav-
ing Loveland, that might have
resulted in a fatality.

Gently made a change in the
public road leading into Love
land and now instead Of cross
ing the Boyer river twice with
in a short distance the road
runs in close to the high bluffs
along the east side of the river,
making an abrupt turn from
the old road near the long steel
arch bridge.
In reaching the river the
water that falls in the hills has
washed a deep gulley along the
east side of the road leading
clear up to where the turn is
made, the north end of the
gulley being about twenty feet
deep. When they left Loveland
last night it was so dark they
could not see three feet ahead
and just as they reached the
turn in the road Mr.. Barrett
got out to see if they were on
on the right road, not knowing
anything about the recent
change in the road, however.
Just as he alighted from the
buggy the horses took a couple
of steps forward and the whole
outfit with Mr.. Hart in the
buggy plunged over the bank,
falling into the bottom of the
. ditch. Mr.. Hart escaped with
:. out serious injury but the buggy
was wrecked and the horses
We're not removed from the
ditch until about noon today.
The farmers who use the
road leading into Loveland
have made frequent complaints
about its dangerous condition
as now arranged and it is
thought last nights mishap
will cause some changes to be.

There have been many singers ap-

the vocalism of Richard J. Jose, the
famous contra-tenor of the Richard
j. Jose Minstrels, is by far the finest
that has been heard for many a day:
his singing Of Dolly Grey, "a Little
Boy in Blue, Belle Brandon" are
sweet remembrances to his many ad-
nirers; his rendition of ballard is
a revelation and no such voice has
ever been heard in selections that re-
ceive the unanimous praise to the
press and public that this performer
gets. Mr.. Jose has added to new bal
lads to his lengthy repertoire, Dear

heard before on any stage and the
public can rest assured that a musical
treat is in store for them. Vim. Nc
