NOT ALWAYS LA BILE.

Mandan Pioneer: Not for every
animal that the railroad company
kills by its locomotives, is the COM
pany liable to pay. The supreme
court Ct this state has held that while
the law presumes that the company is
guilty of negligence whenever it kills
an animal, yet the company is per-
mitted to prove by its witnesses that
it was not negligent. If it succeeds in
doing this, then it is not liable. In a
recent case tried in this county, a
farmer sought to recover $500 for two
horses killed by the North Coast
Limited one night. The engineer
testified that he was keeping a look.

animals: that Just as the engine came
upon them they stepped on the track

A BOY WITH GOOD NERVE.

A dispatch from Mohall says: Mil
ton Logan, aged Is years, who lives
with his father at Antler, near here,
is slowly recovering from injuries re-
ceived in terribly painful accident.
The lad was engaged in plowing on his
fathers farm and as he got down from
the plow to walk for a time. his foot
slipped from the axle and went
through the spokes of the wheel. He
called for the team to stop, but the
horses did not heed, and kept on to
the end OF the field, distance Of 500
feet. dragging the boy that distance.
When the horses finally stopped young
Logan was obliged to crawl Lnder the
axle three times to unwind his leg
enough to reach his pocket, out OF
which he secured his knife, with which
he cut off the pant leg and thus loos-
ened the foot. The leg was badly
frac ured, one Of tile bones prOtrud-
ing through the flesh. The nervy vic
tim put the bone back as best he
could, mounted the plow and drove to
the house. The physician called and
found that the leg had been broken in
three places between the knee and
ankle. An effort is being made to
save the leg and the patient is getting
al.ng nicely.
