The barges and steamer then struck the Cincinnati wharf boat and the steamer Scotia’ which were moored a few feet further down the river, cutting the ropes and sending them afloat. By this time the greatest excitement prevailed among the river men. A largecrowd assembled on the wharf and it looked as if every boat between the bridge and the point would be swept away. Fortunately the wharfboat, which had a large hole knocked in the side, sunk broadside across the path of the unmanageable cr: and this prevented further disaster. One of the barges also sank, but the other was rescued by a passing towboat.

Sunday evening James Smith, a cow boy from Mason Valley, arrived in town on the hurricane deck of a sad-eyed mule, and was amusing a crowd on C. street by causing the animal to perform numerous tricks. Chief of Police Henderson appeared on the scene and ordered Smith to move on with his mule and be p. d. q- about it, too, or he would arrest both him and the animal. Smith expressed a doubt of the chief's abil- ity to take the mule into custody. The officer approached the mild- eyed mule and reached for the bridle rein. Its owner quietly remarked, “But him over, Ned.” The next instant the chief lay on the broad of his back in the middle of the road from a pile-driver but from the mule’s head. He scrambled to his feet and made another attempt with a like result, and before he regained his feet the second time the mule and his rider were fleeing southward with the speed of the wind. Later in the afternoon Smith is said to have pulled a pistol on the Divide. Officer Sullivan attempted to arrest him, but he merely said: “Show ‘em your heels, Ned,” when the mule’s hind legs instantly began describing ec- centric circles in the air, which sent everybody flying from the vicinity to avoid being kicked to death. Smith was finally captured after he had who was charged with having com- mitted a criminal assault on a respec- table white woman. a Mrs. Mikiff, in Pulaski county, from the custody of Sheriff Harkrader at the depot in this place and hanged him ina grove about four hundred yards distant. After hanging Smith, the lynchers riddled his body with bullets. Smith was given time to pray and made a confession of his crime. Empress Victoria a Prisoner.
