George Borntrager and Family Thrown From Buggy.

As George Borntrager and wife and two children were returning home from church Sunday morning their horse, w’hich has ordinarily not shied at automobiles, gave a sudden lurch to one side and ovc-y turned their buggy in the ditch, throwing all out. Dr. Kannal was passing in his auto and at once stopped his car and went to their rescue, taking Mrs. Borntrager and Hie children home. None were hurt except for the frigtlDand a email scratch which George received on his head. The top-was broken almost off the buggy and the running gears were slightly sprung. Dr. Kannal generously gave $2 toward the repair of the rig. The body of Charley Newman Murray is expected to arrive here from Spokane, Wash., either this evening or Tuesday morning and the funeral will take place at the Barkley church at 3 o’clock Tuesday afternoon. The Eastern Star Club will be entertained Tuesday afternoon by Mrs. E. T. Harris arid each lady is asked to bring a dish of something for the supper at which the husbands will be their guests. Hamilton & Kellner can do your grinding in a hurry.
