Farmer Cruelty Kills Old Horse and

Appleton, Wis, March 10.-In an
attempt to kill an aged horse, which
had been in the family for SO years,
John Eckert, a farmer-of the town of
Center. had a miraculous escape from
being blown TO death. Desiring not
TO kill the aged animal himself, he
asked his neighbors To shoot the ami
NAL. but ali refused To do it,. He
then thought that if he blew up the
horse with dynamite he could get
away in time not to see the horses
sad end Attaching a piece OF eX-
plosive to the horses neck by a
string he took last look at the ami
NAL and touched off the fuse with 4
match. He then started to run away
from the horse and out of the field.
Instead of standing still to meet It's
fate, the aged animal started TO fol-
low its owner The faster the man
ran the faster the horse came after
him. Presently. stricken with ter
ror, Eckert could hardly move. but
finally reached a wire fence. through
which he crawled The horse could
not follow. A moment later, with
Eckert two rods away, the dynamite
exploded. The shock knocked The
man down, but did not hurt him seIf
ously. When he looked back tho
horse and fence were gone and the
ground was torn up for yards around
