PRINCE HAL" IS SAVED
FROM Death; VERY SICK
Splendid PAGER Came Near "Cr0sslnq
the Big Divide. us Very va|u-
able Animal.

Prince Hail." the speedy PAGER
owned by William Begsley of this
city, is alive only by virtue of the
heroic efforts of DR.. Warninger, the
local veterinarian, who saved the
life of the PAGER when death seemed
certain, from indigestion.
Prince Hal' was taken sick last
Sunday night, the sickness resulting
from a change of feed from old oats
to new, resulting in an aggravated
case of indigestion. The horse
suffered terribly and got but little
relief until yesterday, when he began
to improve, and today he was hitched
up and logged slowly.
Had Prince Hal" died, Mr..
Begsley would have sustained quite
severe loss, as he paid $4,000 fol
the PAGER, two years ago. Prince
Hal" has never exactly fulfilled the
expectations of his owner, owing
principally to the manner in which
the animal was trained by different
drivers. However, he was in fine
condition, at the county fair, held
here two weeks ago, and succeeded
in lowering the mile record of the
local half-mile track from 2:15A t.
2:13A.
