[ Culbertson Sun. ]
On Sunday last , C. A. Parish , accompanied
by It/C. Stern , started out for a drive. When
near McCook , one of the horses suddenly be.
gau to kick , and almost at the first motion kick ,
ed the front end out of the buggy and struck
Stern on the side. In attempting to escape a
second blow from the horse's heels , Stern was
thrown from the buggy and the wheels pass-
ng over him fractured a rib or two. The
; eam got loose from the buggy and ran on
through McCook , one of the horses goinga con
siderable distance beyond before being caught
Parish stuck to the buggy and escaped unhurt.
THE following little incident of the
strike at Denver stands forth promi
nently without precedent in railroad cir
cles : General Manager Clark of the
Union Pacific was in Denver , week beFore -
Fore last , on his way to Georgetown.
During his stay in the city he was hon
ored by a visit from a committee of the
Knights of Labor , who demanded an in
crease of wages. Upon the general
manager's refusal to concede their de
mand , he was calmly informed , that iir
the humble opinion of the committee ,
the climate of Colorado did not accord
with his physical wants , and that they
had decided that Nebraska was more
salubrious. The manager's car was
taken into the shops , and the change of
trucks from narrow to broad gauge was
made , and at the hour and day appointed
his special car was drawn into the Union
depot , and Mr. Clark boarded the train
an4 left for Omaha in compliance with
the committee's request. And strange
as it may seem the very man , who or
dered Mr. Clark out of the state is now
working in the Union Pacific shops at
Denver.
THE London Times says , in an edito
rial upon the death of Victor Hugo , the
great French poet and literateur , who
died last Friday :
"This event is one that touches the whole civ
ilized world. Victor Hugo was by common con
sent the greatest poet since Goethe. To all ,
even to realists in literature , the chief of the
romanticists , was until the last a being re
garded differently from other men. Posterity
will doubtless modify this judgment , but it will
at the same time admit that much may be
urged in its support. " The Standard says ,
'Victor Hugo did not attain the highest liter
ary rank , but he was a generous and magnifi
cent lyrist whose music will long haunt the car
of mankind. "
SOME Kansas Git } ' aldermen recently
lad a "slight misunderstanding" with
i reporter in that city , in the which the
reporter gracefully and artistically drap
ed numerous optics , and pealed sundry
nasal appendages , and otherwise disfig
ured their aldermanic proportions. In
ustice to the aldermen it should be
stated that they did not know that the
reporter was once a professor in a bos-
ng school.
THE Daily Electric Light published
at North Plattc is a welcome visitor to
our sanctum. The editor is a little se
vere and unjust in his recent comment
on this paper , for which we feel that he
will make full amends after a close ob
servation of our columns.
A COW-HOY in a recent Montana cat
tle case testified that "a maverick is
somebody else's calf that you get your
own brand on first. " It would be inter
esting to have the cow-boy's definition :
