NICK ORTIZ INJURED
IN RUNAWAY

Nick Ortiz, driver of the Perins
stage, had several ribs broken and
sustained number other injuries of a
painful and possibly serious nature
this morning, about 10 o'clock, when
the team he was driving ran away
down the hill at terrible rate.
Ortiz, with one passenger on board,
was returning from his daily trip to
the Calumet mine. All went well un-
til the Jakino place, at the top of the
hill, was reached, when the tongue
of the wagon broke, frightening the
animals and they tore down the hill
to the bottom. Ortiz was thrown out
and badly hurt. The passenger, an
Austrian from the mine, escaped
without injuries.
Mate Harrington, district superin-
tendent of the Western Colorado Pow
er company, was on his way to the
mine, found the team at the bottom
of the hill with the overturned wag-
on close beside it. The animals were
cut and bruised, the harness was COM
pletely torn to pieces and the wagon
was demolished. He called assist
ance and the injured man was hasten
ed to Mercy hospital for treatment.
AS yet it has not been ascertain
ed whether Ortiz's injuries are neces.
sarily of a critical nature.
