LIVING TOAD IN COAL BED.
Warty Batrachian May Have Gone to
Sleep Centuries Ago.


John Savage, of Buck Hill, Md,
a miner in the Enterprise mine, was
greatly astonished when, in breaking
a solid lump of coal, he saw a live
toad jump out and hop around his
feet
The hole in which the toad was
confined was not large enough to
permit any exercise on his part. 1t
is supposed the batrachian centuries
ago dug himself hole in the
ground and went to sleep
This is not the first time live
toads have been dug from the
ground far below the surface, but it
has never been satisfactorily ex-
planned how life is sustained under
such conditions.
The toad measured six and half
inches and lived for some time after
discovered. There were no slips"
or assures near the place it was
found, so that how it got into the
coal will probably remain mys-
terry.

CROW RETALIATED UPON HIM.
Wilson Shot the Bird, and Then the
Bird Shot the Man.

Frank Wilson, a prominent mill
man living near Americas and
brother of Representative Jarrett
Wilson, is at the Americas hospital
as the result of a most peculiar &C
cident which may cost him an arm,
although hope is expressed that am
putation will not be necessary.
While driving in his buggy Will
son shot and wounded a crow,
throwing the bird in the bottom of
his buggy. Wilson's gun was cock
ed, a fact not noticed, and as the
wounded crow tossed about in the
buggy the tip of its wing struck the
trigger, firing the gun.
The entire charge struck Wilson
in the right arm, tearing away the
flesh, but not breaking the bone.

LADIES WON THIS ELECTION
High License Victory in Newton, and
Saloons Are Closed for First
Time in Seventy Years.

A dispatch from Newton, down in
Baker county states that the most
exciting campaign ever held in that
town has eliminated in the election
of new councilmen. The liquor
question was practically the only is
sue in the campaign, and the feeling
created by the jealous work of the
opposing factions rose to white heat.
Mainly as a result of the untiring
efforts of the ladies of the town the
election resulted in decisive vic
tory for the high license candidates,
which means that the whisky license
will probably be increased to $685.

saloons of the town have been closed
for the first time in seventy years,
and the victory of the high license
candidates practically means prohi-

Cured on the day of election, and
the presence at the polls of the ladies
of the town, who remained on guard
throughout the day, was but one of
the unusual features of the contest.
The victory for high license is con-
ceded to be due mainly to the eff
forts of the ladies.
