While Eugene FOUNTAIN, of Greenleaf, was watering his team here yesterday at the town well they became frightened and ran away. They ran east at a very rapid speed, and soon struck the corner of John SHECKLER's shop east of the Hotel Revi. Mrs. FOUNTAIN and her child, which was in her arms, were thrown forward and pitched out of the wagon into the shop door. Both were hurt some, but it is hoped not seriously. Had they struck the brick building instead of going in the door way they would have met instant death.
