Nervy Elsie.

Saturday evening Misses Elsie
and Eunice, daughters of w. J. Nc
Leod and wife of Shell were in a
spring wagon when the team took
fright and bolted down Main Street
right before hundreds of startled
men who were powerless to render
them any assistance.
The maddened team like flash
went south swinging from side
to side of the street while the
plucky nervy girl with tight grip
on the lines was slowly but surely
getting the best of the horses. Af-
ter run Of nearly three quarters
of a mile she succeeded in bring
ing them to a stand little worse
for the terrific race.
1t was Miss Elsie who some three
years ago while blackberryine was
led to a tree by her little dog and
found one of those great big fight
ing coons up in the top of it. Leav-
ing the little dog to stand guard,
she went home and doing as she
had seen brother do" slipped
shells into a double barreled gun
to the tree killed the coon
the first shot.
And Elsie is just as sweet as she
is nervy, but that means, she is a
Missouri girl.
