From underneath the mass Of horse flesh the, officers blue-clad legs 1n- stantly Wriggled, however, and he landed his whole weight on the ami maps head, pinning it to the ground.

 Somebody handed the captain his cap and he walked into Burts drug store, where an examination revealed that he was not badly hurt, but se- verely shaken up, lame, and with his uniform torn and spoiled. Here was the only result of his having risked his life to save many others from what looked like certain injury. Those who saw the captains feat proclaimed 1t about the nerviest and niftiest stunt that has been pulled off in this town in many long day.
