The Demoi-ratic convention held at Lewistown on Saturday was an extreme- ly quiet affair tied it was evident that only by methods known to themselves had the Waders of the party filled many of the vacancies on the ticket. The at- temitiece was poor and half of the pre- cincts were not represeeted. There *watt little enthusiasm displayed the end of the convention therX were hardly enough delegates left to transact tlw necessary business which remained. The convention Was called to order at 10:25 by Chairman Parrent of the county central committee who addressed the as- sembled delegates—Whit:II only 11111111)er- eit about thirty-five at dint atitne—in a well prepared speech in which 'he dwelt on the especial fondness which the Dem- ocratic paity had for the lahorigig man David/Htlger nominated W.

The conference committee repotted that the Labor party wouldn't make the right kind of a deal-- in fact dieplayed too much independence—and asked for more time. The nominations for the ! legislature were consequently pawed on- tilthe deal with the Labor party was corn pleted Other committees reported iii usual order.

Last Friday morning a serious accident befell Mrs. L. C. Rock, sister of Mrs, John Jackson, Jr. .Ira. Rock, with her little daughter Pauline, had been visit- ing Mrs. Jackson in Kendall the past month. Their visit ended, they started last Friday mornitig on their journey to their limne in Illinois. Mr. Jackson drove them over to Warm Soring creek ritatiOn where they were to meet the Benton coach and take the coach from there to the railroad. Mrs. Rock's experience at the Warm Spring creek station Was not a very pleasant one; however, it seems to be the misfortune of other travelers who are compelled to take the stage there, to he confronted by a gruff and discourteous stage driver who thinks it is the proper thing to swear and kick because he is obliged to load an extra trunk or grip. Mrs. Rock and danghter proceeded on their way without any mishap, however, until Deerfield was reached. Here the stage stopped to get the Deerfield mail. The it left the coach to go into the post \Mee. and Dr. Allen, the dentist, who was on his Way home from Lewis- town, also jumped out, and was welkin': iihead until such time as the coach would catch up with him. The horses were not tied, and Mrs. Rock and Pauline were left in the Coach without any pro- tection from a runaway. Some person was abooting at the rear of the Deerfield post office, and the gun report freightened the stage horses into a mad roil. The horses kept the road until they reached the top of it hill a 11011 t. a quarter of a mile ()latent, when they were about to dine:end a very Meet) hill. Mrs. Rock, realizing the danger of going down the hill at a runaway speed , told Pauline to jump, and then jumped herself. When help came to them they mere both (income:kilts end lying by the roadside. They were taken to the Ronk ranch near by, and Dr. Tracy of Lewis- town Was telephoned for. Medical ex- amination showed that Mrs. Rock \tail a broken arm just below the shoulder and her head and face were badly bruised sod elm — Pindborlosispod with a severer shaking nn. Ili the meantime the horses had corn- ' pletoththeir run; hy the time the bot- tom o4. the hill was reached the stage was completely densoliihed. Sewn of the accident Was telephoned to Kendall and then to the pumping station of the Kendall mill, where Mr. ackeon, who was on his way hack to Kendall. was informed of the eniallep. Mr. Jackson immediately started for the scene of the accident, and did all lie could to prOville for Mrs. Rock's im- mediate care. He then brought Pauline back to Kendall with him and returned again with Mrs. Jackson who nursed Mrs. Rock nntil Sunday when she was larought hack to Kendall. Mrs. Rock is now resting eakly at the home of Mrs. Jacks n in Kendall.
