N. July short time after the automobile accident at the Sheyenne bridge and while a few parties were investigating the "wreck" a horse and buggy driven by Jacob Haugen passed and met a motorcycle coming down the hill east of the bridge. The horse became frightened and tried to climb the hill which at this point has an angle of about 70 degrees. This he failed to do, and came tumbling over with the buggy into the ditch at the side of the grade. One of the people at the bridge had started In assistance, and with the rider of the motor, caught the horse as it arose, extricated the driver from beneath the buggy and found that fortunately nothing was injured and but little damage done to the buggy.

FIVE STITCHES Necessary to Close Wound Caused by Horse's Kick Harvey, N. July passing behind a horse in the barn on the Anton Jorgenson farm, Mr. K. O. Rauk was kicked and injured, though not seriously.

It appears that Mr. Rauk while attending the Yeomen picnic, had occasion to feed his team and in passing behind a strange horse, was kicked. He happened to be so close to the animal that the kick was in the nature of a vigorous shove in the back which threw him violently against a studding, striking and severely cutting his lower lip and knocking out a tooth. He at once returned to the city and had the wound attended to, five stitches being necessary to join the cut, and gamely returned to finish the enjoyment of the picnic. AUTO TURNS TURTLE Foot Brake Failed to Hold and Car Slides Down Embankment Harvey, N.

July might easily have been a fatal automobile accident happened when W. E. Cooke's car containing himself and frank Cartwright of Antelope Lake, turned over at the east approach of the bridge over the Sheyenne river in the eastern suburbs of the city. It appears that the two gentlemen had crossed the bridge and wished to back down the branch driveway to the south of the main approach, when In backing the foot brake of the car failed to hold it and before the emergency brake could be operated, the car slipped over the ten foot embankment and rolled over on the top. Both men were caught beneath the car, but as it had not been running at any rate of speed and had slid down slowly, the top sufficed to hold the car up long enough to enable Mr.

Cooke to get out and assist Mr. Cartwright In extricating himself. It was an exceedingly narrow escape for both men, the car being a heavy one and had it been going at any speed at all when the accident happened, the top would have been crushed and doubtless the accupants with it. Assistance was secured and the car righted and drawn from below the bank when it was found that nothing was broken save the top. There may be other standards, but children agree that the last weeks of school are the longest time.

July O'Rourke sustained severe bruises and was badly shaken up, Charles Holman sustained two cracked ribg and other severe injuries and Frank Roby received several scratches and bruises when a tire on the Roby car exploded and came off when about a mile south of the Heart river bridge on the river road.

Every time a ball player gets lame, the sporting editors say he has the 'charley Now, I've been treating baseball players for 18 years, and in all that time have seen only two cases of 'charley The first case was brought in here 17 years ago by Jimmy of the Boston Red he had it bad. I've seen only one case since. 'Charloy-horse' was so named because the horses that pulled the horse cars used to get lame on the cobbles, and couldn't use one foot, which simply dragged after them.

That was the way Jimmy McAleer came in here, dragging one foot." "What about pitchers?" the "Bonesetter" was asked. "Well," he explained, "as you may imagine, the pitchers come in here with bum arms. The straight ball pitchers throw their arms out and strain the tendons in the shoulder. The curve ball pitcher catches it in the elbow. The muscles with which he curves his ball, by twisting the hand and the wrist, are based at the elbow and get misplaced.

I've got them spotted. Send me a pitcher I never saw, and by feeling of his arm and shoulder I can tell you the kind of ball he specializes in, whether it is PHYSICIANS AND SURGEONS Dr. W. H. Witherstine PHYSICIAN AND SURGEON Office Over 20 South Third St Dr.
