PROMINENT BOYLE COUNTY MEN
Mix-UP IN OANVIlLE

A neat little set-tC between two
prominent Danville citizens was sup
pressed by the Danville papers last
week. The affair occurred on Wednes
day when Charley Caldwell, a son of
Jerry Caldwell approached attorney
John W. Rawlings in front OF the Roe.

out so much as by your leave, planted
a hard right swing to the attorneys

ing nose glasses, and the blow caused
them to break, an edge Of the glasses
cutting his cheek severely and caus-
ing much blood to flow.
The two men then grappled and
were engaged in sort OF catch-as-

The attack on MIR. Rawlings by
Mr. Caldwell is said to have been
caused by certain reflections upon the

attorney in a speech before a jury in

GEN. MILES INJURED.
Thrown from Horse--Rib Broken, Cut
and Bruised-Will Recover.

Washington. April 27.-Gen. Nelson
A. Miles, U. S. A., retired, was thrown
from new horse he was riding in
Potomac park late today. One rib was
broken, he received slight scalp
wound and was bruised somewhat on
his shoulder and side. 1t is not
thought that he suffered any internal
injuries or that the scalp wound will
prove serious.
When picked up by d park policeman,
General Miles was unconscious, but
shortly reganed his senses and refused
to be taken to any hospital, saying
that he would go to his apartment. to
which an automobile conveyed him. The
doctors who attended him tonight said
thai as far as they were able TO dis
cover there was no cause for alarm.
On account of his age, which is 20 years,
and his weight. some of his friends here
are apprehensive lest he may have suf-
fered more severely than is known. He
was suffering considerable pain tonight,
but was bearing it bravery.
After the general had ridden for a
time on his accustomed horse he mount
ed one he had never tried before. He
had not gone more than a quarter of a
lille when the animal reared and threw
him heavily to the ground.
From 1895 to 1903 General Miles was
in command of the army.
