H. O. Mead of this city went to Crescent a
short time ago and set up a "tnerry-po-
round , " which was well patronized by the
young people of the vicinity. It was run by
horse power , with an overhead gear. Trade
was unusually heavy on the Fourth. On
that day the merry-go-round was heav
ily loaded nnd was in full blast
when a chain broke , allowing one
of the heavy pieces of machinery ( o fall out
to ono side and strilte a little boy named
Kilpack in the head. He was picked up in
sensible and carried to his homo on Pigeon
creek , where it was found that ho was
suffering from a fractured skull. Every
thing was done to relieve him , but In vain.
Ho died yesterday morning. The accident
could have been averted by the use of suit
able guard ropes to keep the crowd away ,
but tbo proprietor failed to use any such
precautions.

Inquest necessary , as there was not the

brought in to show that It was
anything but a case of acci
dental drowning. Tha coroner did
not care to lose an opportunity of holding an
Inquest and drawing u fco , however , and so
the inquest went on. There was no informa

and at the conclusion the jury returned the
