HORSE DEAD FROM ACCIDENT
Valuable Animal Fell In Dover and
Had to Be Killed

Two fine bay horses which had
been sent to Walter j. Massey, of
Dover, on trial, were being driven
down North street by Samuel Walls
early Thursday evening when they
became frightened at a load of tod
der, and in lunging one of the horses
fell and broke his leg. The animal
was killed to relieve it of it's suffer-
ing and hide man came along and
removed the carcass for it's hide.
The incident started over again the
discussion among horsemen as to the
failure of modern surgery to salts
factorily administer to a horse with
broken leg. Several years ago
while experiments in this kind of
surgery were being tried throughout
the county, ex-senator Alice had a
trotting horse, Bessie. The mare
broke her leg at the joint and her
owner valued her so highly that she
was swung up off her feet and was
cared for during several weeks in
this sling, in which she ate and slept.
1t is said that when released the
mares leg, still itching in the mend
ing, irritated her and she got at it
with her nose and mouth and broke
it again.

Better Steamboat Service.

Tuesday evening, May 10, was fixed
by the Board of Trade of Dover for
its annual members meeting, at
which the members are entertained
at collation. and with an outline of
the work before the board for the
ensuing year. The S25, 900 which
has been secured by Senator Richard
son for the improvements of the St.
Jones river, and which, it is be-
lieved, will give Dover steamboat
and merchant vessel commerce, will
be the principal subject for discus
sion at this meeting. Major Herbert
Deakyne, Colonel Bispham and other
engineers who will have the spending
of the $25, 900 directly in charge. will
be invited to attend this meeting and
there is also a project on foot to Sc
cure additional financial help that
will give Dover a large inlet and
basin at the source or main tributary
of the st. Jones, extending from
State street at what is known as the
lanyard, around to the present
wharves on Water street. 1t is
claimed that between Dover and
Lebanon, where steamboats, now run,
there is only one obstructing fiat.

John Hugh Woodward and

John Hugh Woodward and his
broncho and cart parted company
with out previous notice on Satur-
day night on their road between
Medicine Lodge and Sharon. The
horse is an especial despiser OF
automobiles and he had been
meeting so many that he thought
everything that moved toward him
was buzz wagon. The excite.
ment took place at the old Stewart
ranch when a top buggy came in
sight. The "bronk" went through
five hundred different antics in ten
seconds, deposited John H. under
the fence and then proceeded to
hit a pace that would turn the
fastest motor car green with envy.
]. H. gathered himself up and took
a back track to Sharon in search
of his equine but did not find him
there; then he took the return trail
toward home and found the horse
near the spot where the circus be-
gan, and all that was left of the
vehicle was the single tree. Hugh
is now convinced that it is hope
less task to try to establish friend
ly relations between that horse and
automobiles.
