MIN-UP WITH HORSE

Governor Boyle narrowly missed
death Monday night when a horse
smashed into his automobile. The
windshield was shivered and the car
body damaged but the governor es-
eaped without a scratch, says the
Carson News.
The governor was driving between
Reno and Carson, going about TWEEN
ty miles an hour, when a dark object
pivoted around from a wayside ditch
and struck the machine on The port
bow, his soft iron shoes extending
TO the executive face in salutation
as II were. Governor Boyle ducked
and covered up with his left and the
great impact was borne by the frame
near the base of the windshield. The
animal left no Identifying trace ex-
cept a segment of brown horsehide
near the front door.
Mrs. Boyle and some guests oeeu-
pied the rear seat and they saw the
impending danger, screaming In
fright. The governors vision was
dead ahead and only his instructive
crouch saved him from possibly
serious injury If not death.
This is the first time in Nevada
history when a horse has tried issues
with an auto. One hundred dollars
in damage, or more. was done and
his friends say it was a "hcrse On
