There are numerous complaints
in the county against men who have
been throwing dead animals into the

that any man having a spark of intel

such a thing. The law is very em
phatic against this dirty and very
dangerous practice, and for the good
of everybody and safety to human
life, every man who pollutes the
streams of water should be dealt with
according to law.

H. M. Winslew, while in Harlan
county met with what might have
easily been a fatal accident. While
crossing a bridge the team became
unmanagable and went off the bridge,
falling about fifteen feet, throwing
Mr. W. into a barbed wire fence, his
head being close to the horses heels.
He waa bruised considerably, uncon
scious for awhile, and is still sore,
though the accident occurred on
the 17th.

will, no doubt, succeed. The same
intelligence, industry and integrity
that John evidenced as a boy are
bringing him success in business as a

From Dr. H. Meade we learn par
ticulars of the accident to John and
Frank Parch at Platte Center, known
as the brick makers. They were un
loading corn from a wagon in Kehoe's
elevator, when the team took fright
at something and ran about four hun
dred feet, knocking both dowu. It
seems that John had hold of the nigh
horse by the bridle and Frank had
hold of the reins, and when the horses
started they tried to get away but
could not, and when the boys fell the
wheels passed over Frank's right
thigh causing an oblique fracture of
the femur; the other side of the
wagon passed over John's breast,
fracturing four ribs, under right arm.
The Doctor says the boys are mend
ing nicely.
Thursday last Mr. and Mrs. Peter
J. Martz started from town to walk

his wife to get far enough away from
the track so that the train would not
draw her into its current, both step
ped off the track. The engine passed
by them, but Mr. Martz, it is said,
while endeavoring to keep his hat
from being blown off his head, leaned
too much toward the train aad was
struck by one of the coaches, en the
right side and on the heed, his right
arm being broken in three places, his
neck being broken (probably by the
sudden blow upen the side) this mo
tion throwing his head against the
car, and being thrown violently to
the ground, his left arm extended, the
left shoulder was dislocated. He did
not return to consciousness, and
breathed his last in a very few min
utes. Mr. Martz had many traits of
good character; he was industrious
and honest, and of a gentle and very
genial disposition, fie leaves a foad
