GRAN MORGAN HURT
80 th bones of Leg Was broken by Falling
Limb
Mr. Gran Morgan of tViregrass hap¬
pened to a serious and painful accident
last frida.v evening. He together *with
his son IVill were oil t splitting rails , and
he came to a very large but favorable
looking tree and proceeded to cut it down,
which in falling broke a large limb from
another tree which came back with ter¬
rific Free and struck Mr. Morgan throw¬
ing him to the ground, when the limb
was removed it was found that his leg
was broken several inches below the
knee , both bones which makes a very
painful fracture and Mr. Morgan being
an old man makes it worse. It will be
several months before he will be able
to walk again. This is a very great
misfortune"!) him as it is now time to
begin clearing and preparing for the
years crop, but the good people of that
community will not let him suffer ou
this .account.

SULT4H OF MORROCCO VICTORQUS
Tangier, Peb. 2.—rTho features of
the sultan’s victory Thursday over the
forces of the .pretender, Bu- Hamarajr
show that tho.battle" was stubbornly
contested, and that the former’s suc¬
cess was largely due to the' co-opera-
at a critical moment of the B'eui
Ourean tribe, whdse defection from
the rebels the sultan had previously
purchased.
Tho artillery of the imperial forces,
which were commanded by tho minG
ter of war, El Menebhl, consisted of
eight Maxim® and four Krupps. The
sultan’s troops opened the attack early
In the morning and shortly afterwa'fd
tho pretender’s camp was assailed In
the rear by the Beni Oureins- lu
spite of the surprise and disadvantage
of the position the rebels stub lx indy
maintained their ground and desper¬
ate fighting continued for thred hours.
The slaughter was very great. The
remnants of the rebel army then
broke, mbanddtied. the', esunp- and fled
in the,direction of. Tazab. Tho im¬
perial troops are pursuing the fugt-
Uvi 3 , hrkl if Bu Hamara la' cot among

El Menebhl hj pushing on towards
Tazab with the object of •entirely
tho crushing tho rebellion and punishing

has found the rebels much more, nu¬
merous than expected, but that ho cap¬
tured all their war ammunition. Tfcere
