the Rev. and Mrs. E. o. Butler,
broke his leg on Sunday about noon,
when the horse he was riding slip
ped on the wet pavement and fell,
pinning the young rider underneath.
Paul Clark, the son of Mr.. and Mrs.
w. A. Clark, who live on ranch
south of town, Was on the horse
with Gordon, but he was thrown
clear as the horse fell, and escaped
without injury. The accident hap
pened at the corner of Bridge and
Main, just across from the Standrod
bank, as the two boys were starting
for the Clark ranch. The injured
lad was carried into Powers Phar-
macy, and his parents were sum-
moned, and he was then removed to
his home, where DR.. Hampton, with
the assistance of DR.. Patrie, set the
broken leg. 1t was an oblique break,
which is harder to set and takes
longer to heal than a straight break.
At last accounts, the young patient
is bearing his suffering gamely, and
improving.
