A HORSE KILLED.

Last week Saturday a valuable horse belonging to Isaac N0Vak, who runs the 0cain farm about two miles up the river, became frightened while being used on a corn planter and ran all the way to the village, taking to the Railroad tracks about opposite the station. Becoming en- tangled with the extra rails at the switch, he threw himself, cutting the face and nose in a bad manner, but righled himself and ran on down the siding, meeting the north-bound morning mail train a little below the station. Luckily the horse remained on the siding and no damage was done there, but later 1t had to be killed because of the extent of its in- juries, George w. Cochrane and F. A. Yutzlerpursued 1t as far as George w. shepard's, where 1t was easily overtaken, having become weakened by loss of blood.
