LEG FRACTURED BY
 FALL FROM HORSE
Runaway Frghtens Another Animal On Second Avenue-The Accident
 Causes Considerable Alarm.

c. E. Mitchell of Pratt City suffered
 fracture of the bone in his left leg early yesterday afternoon as the re- suit of being thrown from his horse, which had become frightened at an other horse that was running away The injured man was removed to his home in Lige Loy's ambulance and the bone reset.
 It was about l o'clock when the run-
 away horse, pulling an empty buggy and dragging a horse block, started
 from the upper part of Second avenue and ran several blocks west. Traffic
 was extremely heavy at the time, the
 course lying through the busiest pal [
 of town several bad accidents being
 narrowly avoided. A number of drivers
 were forced to drive their vehicles
 upon the sidewalk in order to clear the
 roadway for the terrified animal.
 The runaway had passed Nineteenth
 street and was nearly to the postof-
 fee when it passed MT. Mitchell, who
 was riding horseback. MT. Mitchelrs
 horse became frightened and began
 plunging and rearing, throwing Mr. Mitchell heavily to the ground. He was
 removed to a nearby office and Lge
 Loys ambulance summoned, after which he was carried home.
 Frightening Mr. Mitchells horse did
 not cause the runaway to halt. h. stead it continued it's mad flight down Second avenue, soon disappearing. MT. Mitchell was formerly policeman on the Ensley police force.

 Readjustment of Rates. The Montgomery freight bureaus petI- ton for a readjustment of rates is set l for hearing by the interstate commerce
 commission at Montgomery April 29 This is case of great importance to the roads in the southeast It appears to in l volve very much the same questions
 which occur in the Spokane case, over l which the commission is now deadlocked | according to reports.
 Mentgomery's chief contention is that | the roads from the west discriminate ] against the city in favor of Mobile Pen 1 sacola and Birmingham, but especially l the first two named. As a general propo- 1 sition, freight from the west can be | shipped to Mobile and there rebilled to
 Montgomery, paying the local rate back | for less than the rate from the same west l ern points to Montgomery direct. In er- feet the combination is less than the l through rate for the shorter haul

The Indians had a tradition that there was a silver mine once worked by the red men near Ironaton. The late Rev. John L. Seay fully credited the legend and not only spent many years of his life searching for the lost mine but went to the expense of bringing back from the Indian territory certain Indians who had lived near Ironaton in the days when the Creeks inhabited this county, in the hope that the mine could be found by them, but these Museogees looked over the neigh borhood and said that the face of the country had been so changed by growing trees and the hand of the paleface that it was impossible to locate the mine, but the mine was there all the same. In his will the Rev. John L. Seay left certain portion of the proceeds of the mine when it should be found, to the Methodist church. Recently vague rumors have been afloat that parties have certain tip as to its location, or have found it, and everybody is sitting up and taking notice and expecting to hear something.

When thou vert ia 'en; the long control
So hardly won; contentedly
To walk alone, nor grudge Heav n thee.

My spirit leaps to thine, so l

Must Be Changed.

The old saying, "As savage as a
rat" must be changed. A Chicago
boy caught large rat and kept him in
a cage for month and tried many ex-
periments on him. One of the thin IS
he did was to let loose a large grass
hopper in the same cage, and the rat
was so frightened by the insect that
he crouched in corner and whined
and shivered with fear. When a
sparrow was introduced to the cage
the rat ran round and round until he
fell down from exhaustion. When
naturalists tell us of the f1erceness of
the rat, after this, they should leave
out the Chicago rodent
