Anderson Dies in Runaway Run-away Sad Death of a Paradise Citizen. Ole M. Anderson, a well known resident of Paradise, wt 8 killed during a runaway in td s city Monday evening. He was driving tow?aid home in the southern part of town, being all j alone in the wagon. No one saw the accident and it is therefore not known just how it happened, j but the belief of Sheriff Rigby, who took charge of the body, is that the deceased dropped the lines and jumped toward the front to secure them, frightening the team; they began to run, and the unfortunate driver clung to; the single trees and was dragged j some distance, the horse kicking him in the face. It seems evi- i i :?crt, -also, th.it the wagon ran " over him when he finally fell, as there is a large deep cut across his forohood which was doubtless made by the wheel. There are several bruises on his chin, apparently ap-parently made by the horse's hoofs. The body was discovered by Professor Henry Otte, the well known musician, who was on his way to the opera house. He picked up the deceased and one or two convulsive gasps told that all was over. Sheriff Rigby and Marshall Crockett were sent fpr and they took the corpse to L:ndqm'st undertaking parlors. The deceased was a native of Scandinavia aged about forty 40 years, and leaves a wife and, several children. He had been iustice of the peace in Paradise and held other similar positions there. He was a man of most kindly disposition, and was universally uni-versally esteemed. He was "good fellow well met" with all who knew him. I His death will cause deep sor-t sor-t row throughout his home town. The horses ran but a short distance from the spot where the body fell, and jumped a deep ditch. In doing this, one of the animals broke its leg, bringing them to a sadden halt. The in jured horse had to be shot.
